Dock (closed beta testing) - Page 3

• thebadmf · 02/08/08, 8:15 AM

I'm obviously not Kameril but I am testing.

Border options are already in. As is the option to change most of the visual aspects of the Dock (opacity, colour, mousover highlights etc).

It really is a nice mod (wait till you see damage and threat meters happily doing there thing while docked).

So we have any idea on when this will be out for open testing? I'm currently using Dash, but would MUCHHHHH rather have this. So, any idea on time frame?

Be patient, there has just been another butreport, so it could take a while longer
I recommend the wowace thread Dock (closed beta testing) as it is updated more often

One more tease:

I've implemented a "tabbing" option which will collapse dock into a tab with a label. You can still drag frames to be docked onto the tab and use keybinds but no frames will be visible until the tab is clicked which will expand the dock into normal size. The tab and the dock have completely independent settings which allows the tabs to be stacked in completely different locations from the actual dock. Different locations are handled by configurable animations. The tab of course has a full range of texturing and coloring options. Additionally, I've added an option to "auto tab" a dock after X seconds of disuse.

Here's a quick vid of it:

Open beta is very soon, patience.

You mentioned the frame would not be visible until the tab is clicked, does/can this include mouseover? (Though I would gladly sacrifice this feature request for a sooner release!)

That's awesome Kameril. I can't wait for the release.

I don't think you'd want that considering the tabs can be placed anywhere. Would be sort of awkward to mouse over it and it to expand on the other side of the screen. With clicking you have more control over it.

Though, if you place the tab right where the dock would expand from, and have on mouseout of the dock minimize back to the tabbed state - it would be quite nice?

Far too much effort to save a click, I think you'll survive.

I’ve waited patiently a little over two months; we are you with the addon? Silence means abandonment?

Dock is available, and has been for a long time:

I don't know if it is being updated anymore, but it works like a charm in 2.4 still.

Very cool that at least beta works (wowace does current changes), thank you.

This is a really neat addon, I'm liking it a lot. Just snagged it today, Helps clear up the visual realestate and looks slick while doing it. Very very nice.
