ncHoverBind Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 1.3.0

by: nightcracker, Coote

Now maintained by TMcMahon51. See thread here.

ncHoverBind is a simple addon that does one thing: binding buttons on mouseover. You can mouse over actionbuttons, spells in the spellbook and macro's in the macro pane and bind them while hovering. You can bind keys, mousebuttons 4 and 5 and the scrollwheel with this addon. If you made a mistake in binding, you can just press "Discard" and your old bindings are loaded. Real simple!

Usage:
Download and install. To start use either /hb or /hoverbind. Hover over buttons, spells or macro's and press a key, scroll with the mouse or press mousebutton 4 or 5. After you've bound your spell/items/macro's press "Save bindings" and your done!
If you use HealBot, use /hvb instead.

Upcoming features:

strawberrie A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 17 Uploads: 0	I've noticed a small bug with this. On certain keybinds like Shift+D, it will work on first bind, but when i want to try and bind it onto a different button, it bugs out. It doesn't bind, it just uses the item/spell instead even after I hit escape to clear the keystrokes. Another one is (now I'm not sure if this is caused by this) that whenever i hover over a certain item on my bar like the Kirin tor ring which has the hearth set to it, and hold shift it brings up blizzard's comparison tooltip and it gets stuck there. I would have to reload my WoW to get rid of it. I hope I made sense. Sorry! I've been trying to find an addon like this for Tuk's ui so I don't have to scroll through the huge list to find the section I want. Great job on it. Thanks

I see, I load the Blizzard_MacroUI on an unexpected moment for the macrobank. I'll fix this and hook the loading of Blizzard_MacroUI instead of forcing it to load.

I'll try to reproduce this later, thanks for the feedback, please use the bug report section later though! Thanks!

Hmm, I thought I prevented this. Let me try to reproduce.

EDIT: Can't reproduce this. Do you use any other addons? And also, try to make sure that you clicked on the user specific tab in the macro frame before binding since I hook the clicking on that button.

Re: Re: macro binding bug

i did test this with all other addons disabled even removing all addon saved variables.

just tried that and it does work if i click the user specific tab again while binding mode is activated.

Wait a second, this explained the bug better, you used /hb while you already had the local bindings open. That indeed causes a bug, I'll try to fix it.

Jabar Premium Member Forum posts: 8 File comments: 41 Uploads: 1	Very good job nightcracker, such a useful yet simple addon ! @ Blizzart How to do it yourself : 1. Line 187 : Edit this line to Code: -- or key == "MiddleButton" 2. Line 190 : Add this Code: if key == "MiddleButton" then key = "BUTTON3" end You can now bind your Middle Button !
