Is there a way to change the class color of everything in the game so all the UI mods recognize it? I don't really want to have to go into Pitbull, change each class, go into Aloft, change each class, etc.

Another problem. In Chinchilla and Simpleminimap, whenever I properly configure the mod, the location bar always comes back when I go to a new region. I really have no idea what could be causing it but it's making me go crazy. Here is a picture of what I'm talking about:

. Anyone know how to fix this? Thanks.

To further explain, I want that x and it's bar to never show up. Whenever I go to a new area, it shows up (Example: Going from Valley of Strength to The Drag causes it to pop up if it wasn't there before). When I load into the game it also shows up. I've purged my WTF entries of both Chinchilla and Simpleminimap and this didn't fix it. I've looked in my interface options and didn't see anything that could be causing it to do this. This is driving me crazy though and I really hope to fix it! Thanks again for any help.

Edit: There is a fix. The problem was SLDT, specifically the Location option. Once I checked the proper box, everything worked!

I am looking for a solution to the problem of reconfiguring keybindings after a respec.

E.g. going from Arms to Prot or Holy to Ret or Feral to Resto will involve moving some keys around, at least for me.

One solution I've found is SimpleActionSets + Bartender, but this is a bit clunky and feels fragile, especially since SAS hasn't been updated for a long while. Is there another barmod out there that lets me save 'sets' of keys/bindings (esp. binding directly to a spell)? What do folks who frequently respec recommend?

I have a question about coords for Chinchilla. I set it up today and have coordinates enabled, I made it the way I wanted it, but as soon as I zoned out of Shat the coords disappeared and haven't returned. I've reloaded my ui. I've disabled and re-enabled coords. I've logged out and in. Any suggestions on how I can get my coords to stay visible?

That's TinyTip, you'll want to edit the Anchor position. /tinytip will bring up the options dialogue.

Anyone know how to get a custom border texture for Quartz?

I used to have a colored healthbar on my TipTac, but now it's just grey.

Anyone know what might be causing this?

sharedmedia on wowace. There's a readme file in the Mymedia section which will guide you through, can be done with copy pasting the built-in files and just changing the file names associated with them.

Just a caveat about this. I happened to add a few of my own border textures to SharedMedia (and -2.0) which were picked up by eePanels, Pitbull, CowTip, but NOT picked up by Quartz. Just in case the above advice, while sound, may not avoid frustration if the user is not using/checking other addons that will read borders from the MyMedia.lua file.

Hey

I'm having a weird problem with my Unit Frames (I assume) since yesterday. I decided to make a shaman and when I got on the starting screen the name had suddenly switched place and there was a suspicious black box instead. I checked settings on Pitbull and the name placement should've been on different spot but it wont move there. I even tried remaking the character and copying another chars folder and renaming it to get same settings but nothing. And the weirdest thing is that it only happens on shaman class, so Im wondering if Pitbull has some shaman setting that's making it go crazy :S

Also when I move the frame the box moves with it so its something from Pitbull I think. Anyways here's a pic to get the idea.

Oh and btw why doesnt the target have it as well? xD

That's the TotemTimer bar. It should be under Player->Other->TotemTimer to change size, move it around, etc (may be remembering the name wrong, but it's in there somewhere). It's player only, and should only be active on shaman characters. Your name has moved because TotemTimer defaults to Frame - Outside, Upper Left, so it shoved your name over to make room for it. Basically, once you cast a totem, that totem's icon will appear on the bar with a timer and the ability to right-click destroy it. You should be able to disable it, if you'd rather not try to get it to work visually with your current frames.

Thanks alot <3 Problem solved. Never heard of this module before. Nice to know there is something like that, although I'd rather use some other addon for totem timers.

Cadfael · 04/22/08, 12:21 PM

This is a bit a weird one but I can't just not track it down. I had this on 2.4 PTR too and I've been having this ever since 2.4, potentially longer.

I always get a bug at startup, but one that I cannot track.

Buggrabber/BugSacks entry is this:

[2008/04/22 18:18:35-866-x1]: <string>:"*:OnEvent":2: bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil)
<string>:"*:OnEvent":2: in function <[string "*:OnEvent"]:1>

It absoluetly does not say which addon is causing it or which file. I just have the bug. Any ideas ?

Ledneh · 04/23/08, 1:01 PM

When I had Prat, by default I was able to start typing the name of an item after a left bracket (such as, "[Madness of") and eventually it would complete the name and link it for me. Now that I have Chatter, I can't figure out how to duplicate that functionality. Does anyone know how that might work?
