Oh, I had no idea this was possible in xBar. It would be nice addition.

Number of emails does not have to be correct, but if you have log off, and then log back on, I would like to keep what it was while you were online.

True, without portable mail it is impossible to count emails. Remember reading about that restriction and work around some add-om makers did.

Thanks you both of you for your detailed feedback. Good to hear that you like ZZInfoBar so far.

I've released a new alpha version with some little corrections. Nothing big and special. It's available soon on curseforge.com or the curse client when it's configured to download alpha versions. Everything is ready only the curseforge packager needs to start.

Quoted from "RoMage;566787"

* Install is easy, I did not have any problems to install additions as map, but as VfWiffo suggested, it would be better if upon initial install buttons are placed on the bar sorted by plug-in (same group together) and if there is a option in menu to reset interface and replace buttons based on selected plug-ins and options inside plug ins.

I guess I won't implement that for now. That initial "list" is nice as it is. From my point of view, creating an "intelligent" auto placement of buttons is work for something that will hinder people that want to have their individual button positions. If you drag a button on top of another one you'll activate the auto alignment feature and if the bar is already full with buttons you need to make some space first. The list keeps the bar clean on the first start but I'll think about creating a background to make it more visible.

Quoted from "RoMage;566787"

* As VfWiffo suggeste, pet name is too long, and everyone playing on Alts as we do will have issue if Alt has no pet. (most do not :))
Okay, I'll shorten the localisation to "no pet". I guess that's short enough. ;D

Quoted from "RoMage;566787"

* DPS counter is very important, as well option to see all current stats as I suggested early. Gives an easy way to compare gear, and see if person's DPS drops due to lost buff.

Then I will add a DPS button to the bar. Eventhough I don't completely understand how a stat tooltip is an easy way to compare gear (StatRating for item tooltips and StatCompare for your character window are much better for this) I will implement it with the DPS button as it won't affect your games performance.

Quoted from "RoMage;566787"

* Number of open/finished quests in quest book, as mentioned before.

I'll think about it.

Quoted from "RoMage;566787"

* Option to select what part of info to show regarding class/level.

Are you talking about the class tooltips? I'd like to leave them as they are.

Quoted from "RoMage;566787"

* As suggested above, store number of new emails and reset it only once mail is opened. It would be great if upon closing of mail you can store number of unread emails, but I don't remember any other add-on being able to do so. Something like New mail 3/6. Three new, 6 total in inbox.)
I'll check if that one chat message is still displayed on game start telling you how many new mails you have and have the new mail counter displaying the correct amount of new mail over several sessions...
I haven't used the "mail API" till now, so I can't tell you if "new mail: 3/6" is possible or needs thousands of workarounds.

Quoted from "RoMage;566787"

* My time clock at home seems to be 1 hour off. Not sure why is that, might have to do with day light saving.
That's because MorphClock seems to be unable to estimate your correct location, or your item shop servers are 1 hour off. You can adjust the time with "/morphclock <shift>" where <shift> is any positive or negative number you like: /morphclock -25

Quoted from "vfwiffo;566801"

What I mean is that when a mail arrives, it is accompanied by the message "your <item name> has been sold" or similar. Xbar extracts the item name from that message, so if I see 5 rom-mails, the mouseover for the mail icon shows the names of items sold. That way I can get idea what is my mailbox without going to it.

Not sure that keeping track of mails would work, because I dont think you can read mailbox remotely, without being at one. That means any email received after you log out but before you log back in will not be counted.

Quoted from "RoMage;566812"

Oh, I had no idea this was possible in xBar. It would be nice addition.
No you can't read the mailbox remotely, but I can extract the names of sold items as long as you are logged in. Just give me some time... :)

Just another question on the DPS meter:
What is your preferred type of DPS counter? I'm asking because of the default settings.
Current DPS: All dealt damage is written to a buffer that is read every 0.5 seconds. The last four sums of the buffers content are saved, summed and displayed on the label.
Average DPS: On combat start the current time is read. All dealt damage is written to a buffer. The sum of the buffers content divided through the duration is displayed in the label.

I am not sure how's xBar was set - same thing as xBar should work.

And character info was in my opinion more important - as it was quick way to check accuracy, int, sta... and all other character stats.

Ok, I guess that was average DPS. Don't worry, I'll add the character info. The DPS button itself is already working.

Thanks!

Can you tell me if there is anything I have to change to have your Lua API auto completion to work in Notepad++?

Ich habe Deutsch vergessen. :D (I lived in Hanau - 20km from Frankfurt A.M. in Hessen for 3 years)

The changes are online now...

You need to activate this feature in the configuration window of Notepad++.
Settings -> Preferences -> Backup/Auto-Completion -> Auto-Completion:
  • Enable auto-completion on each input : true
  • From 1st character
  • Function completion: true
  • Word completion: false
  • Functions parameters hint on input: true

Also make sure you've copied the generated xml file to "...\Notepad++\plugins\APIs\"

Klappt doch noch. ;)
Hanau isn't really far away from my home. I live only 80-90km away from it.

Edit: I've noticed that I accidently set the default DPS type to current DPS. Nothing serious, I only wanted to point that out.

Thank you, that worked.

Question regarding ZZCleanUI, I installed it, did not like everything it changed, so removed. Is there simple option to select what of GUI interface will be disabled/removed?

Thank you for work. That Lua.xml generation looks really great.

You're welcome. :)

With the help of AddonConfig ZZCleanUI integrates itself into the games interface configuration window. There is no slash command, minimap button or stuff like that. ESC -> Inferface settings -> ZZCleanUI
In this window you are able to show/hide many of the standard GUI elements and filter chat messages.

Will try it again tonight. It removed option to switch chat windows for me, so easiest fix was to remove add-on and reload UI :)

Noguai, is it possible to add public event score/points for current location to ZZInfobar??

Reason I ask - last night like many times before score info decided to quit on my character, so at any point last night I was not able to tell what was the score nor how much was my score in public event. From talk to others, it seems to be often a problem with GUI.

I don't know. It should be possible, as there have to bee some functions the standard gui uses to display that information.

But I won't look into that until I and TellTod have finished fixing AAH.

Yep, AAH fix would be great, nice you guys work on it!

BTW, did you get my PM?

I am having a problem with the clock. It is far off from my actual time and there seems to be no option to turn it over to a 12 hour instead of 24 hour. Right now it is reading 20:30 and in 12 hour time it is actually only 7:30 which would be 19:30. That is really messing with my head right there :p

Oh and did you say you had put in morphclock? So the one I downloaded for X-bar can be deleted from my addon folder?

Here is earlier reply regarding time:

Quoted

That's because MorphClock seems to be unable to estimate your correct location, or your item shop servers are 1 hour off. You can adjust the time with "/morphclock <shift>" where <shift> is any positive or negative number you like: /morphclock -25


So just type:

Source code

1
/morphclock -1


and time should be fixed.

Well, the number you are entering counts as minutes, but besides from that the solution should be correct.

Tuesday, October 23rd 2012, 11:43pm

But what about the 12 hour function?

Also, since I switched over to this from X-Bar, I lost the mini map mover that came with it. I went on curse and found zzmini map mover, that you developed, but it had so many errors I could not use it. The skins would not show over the original skin so if you wanted a square map, you still have the original circle frame inside. Also it would not show zone. Also it didn't have a function to hide useless mini map buttons.

Just some thoughts if you plan on updating it in th future.

The minimap you are thinking of is a plugin addon to Xbar. While it is integrated into Xbar, it doesn't have to be. It can work standalone. I ditched Xbar in favor of ZZinfobar, but I am still using the minimap from X.
