stText

Version: r9

by: Soeters [More]

I've stopped playing WoW, so this addon won't be updated again, at least not by me.
If someone feels like updating it, just PM me.

What is this

stText is a little addon which display some informations like:

Time
Latency
Memory usage (now with a tooltip for the 35 addons which uses the most memory)
Location
Coordinates
Framerate
Durability (thanks to phrozenassid)

Customisation

In the screenshot you can see some text written in teal, it's a custom color. You can choose a custom color or set the classcolor instead.

All the settings can be changed in Settings.lua. The settings are the text size, justify and the modules enabled.

To unlock a module, just type /stt (or /sttext) (Name of the module) (i.e /stt Clock to unlock the clock, or /stt Memory to unlock the memory module)
By default they will all be crowded at the center of the screen.
If type /stt or /stt help (indeed if you type something that's not a module name) to have a list all available modules
To move them, hold the Alt key and drag them wherever you want.

r9
Independant module outlines
Separated coords from location

r8
Outline text
Independant module sizes

r7
12/24 time format
Slash command help

r6
Changed slash commands

r5
Durability module (thanks to phrozenassid)

r4
Toc bump

r3
Fixed the errors occuring when enabling an addon

r2
New placement management (SavedVariables)
Memory tooltip

Maybe you should better try with clock instead of ctext and f. (simply replace f and ctext by clock)
But I'm not sure this would work either (though that was my suggestion before), because it could be some taint call (i.e. attempting to use SetAlpha while in combat). You would have to use StateDrivers (or something like that ).
I've never used this kind of functions as I did have no need for it, but as some people request a IC/OOC option, I may add such an option.

I'll give it a go and mess about with it, and see if I can get any type of success. Thanks for the help (Some authors seem to be completely against offering any help, did they not expect questions when they made and uploaded an addon? ><)

Yeah the ic/ooc option is the only real thing i'd say was missing from sttext compared to sldt. Although I'd rather use yours with no combat options since sldt seemed to use half my cpu ha!

This is what i changed it to, and wacked it in at the end of the clock module in the texts section. Excuse the poor code quoting..

Code:

f:RegisterEvent"PLAYER_ENTERING_COMBAT" f:RegisterEvent"PLAYER_LEAVING_COMBAT" f:SetScript("OnEvent", function(self, event) if(event == "PLAYER_ENTERING_COMBAT") then ctext:Alpha(0) elseif(event == "PLAYER_LEAVING_COMBAT") then ctext:SetAlpha(1) end end)

I think the part where i'm going wrong is what to put as the 'f' bit before the registerevents, and what to call the clock module? (what i'm calling ctext in this bit, although i did try lots of things :<)

If you fancy helping me i'd really appreciate it! I can then probably work out the durability one from there, or it'll atleast entertain me for a few more hours, before I come crawling back to you for help

).

Have you deleted your SavedVariables ?
This looks like a symptom of this kind of problem. Your previous changes affected to SavedVariables and getting the addon won't change anything as the error comes from the data itself. Your positions for the Memory plugin must have been messed up I don't know how and now this screws up the SetPoint function whose purpose is to place them right.

Seems to have worked, thanks alot! (:

But is there a option to change the path to which font the texts use? :S Sorry if its painfully obvious I just looked through all of the lua's ... Otherwise Great EDIT: Ummm, my memory module refuses to work / load, I have not changed anything in the LUA except to changing the other module's to off, and lowered the font size. /sttext says that Memory is an available module, however if I try to move it, essentially, /sttext Memory refuses to be entered through my chat frame, It will just freeze... Suggestions? Last edited by Pro-Fool : 07-24-10 at 09:17 PM.

Tried editing some of the settings file, messed it up, but that's not important ha. Now I'm getting an lua error (even after deleting and reinstalling a new copy of your addon).

Error occured in: Global
Message: ..\AddOns\stText\Core.lua line 43:
stText_Memory:SetPoint(): Couldn't find region named '(null)'
Debug:
[C]: ?
[C]: SetPoint()
stText\Core.lua:43: CreateText()
stText\Texts.lua:196:
stText\Texts.lua:84

^ that. And then my memory module won't show. Really confused as to why not, and have no clue how to fix it (:

If you could point my in the right direction as to what i've messed up, then it'd be appreciated. Thanks!

For your ic/ooc, I can suggest this: Code: f:RegisterEvent"PLAYER_ENTERING_COMBAT" f:RegisterEvent"PLAYER_LEAVING_COMBAT f:SetScript("OnEvent", function(self, event) if(event == "PLAYER_ENTERING_COMBAT") then f:SetAlpha(0) elseif(event == "PLAYER_LEAVING_COMBAT") then f:SetAlpha(0.4) end end) You put it in Core.lua, just after the OnMouseUp/Down scripts. This is not tested but it should work. __________________

Where can I change the position in the lua? Code: [16:18:51] Interface\AddOns\stText\Core.lua:19: attempt to index field 'bg' (a nil value) [C]: ? Interface\AddOns\stText\Core.lua:19: in function `value' Interface\FrameXML\ChatFrame.lua:4070: in function `ChatEdit_ParseText' Interface\FrameXML\ChatFrame.lua:3660: in function `ChatEdit_SendText' Interface\FrameXML\ChatFrame.lua:3698: in function `ChatEdit_OnEnterPressed' [string ":OnEnterPressed"]:1: in function <[string ":OnEnterPressed"]:1> Also, how can I change the justification for each stat seperately? Can I just add it in there and it will over ride it? edit - I figured out the justification in the lua. Still having problems with Memory though, and I just disabled it :P I can't move it with the slash command, i get the error above. Also, this is my code for trying to hide it in combat else setting the alpha to 0.4, if maybe you can help me as to what i'm doing wrong? :P Maybe I'm putting it in the wrong place. Code: function f:OnEvent() if(event == "PLAYER_ENTERING_COMBAT") then f:SetAlpha(0) else if(event == "PLAYER_LEAVING_COMBAT") then f:SetAlpha(0.4) end end end Last edited by Ferous : 07-08-10 at 06:11 PM.

With places named like putricide's room, the location text just ends up overriding other frames i have.

I'll try find a way to fix that but I can't promise anything
