Can you help me please? WatchFrame:SetClampedToScreen(true) WatchFrame:SetMovable(true) WatchFrame:SetUserPlaced(false) WatchFrame:ClearAllPoints() WatchFrame:SetPoint("TOP", Minimapcluster, "BOTTOM", 0, 20) WatchFrame:SetHeight(450) i just want to clamp WatchFrame to a minimap... TOP WatchFrame to BOTTOM Minimap or MinimapCluster whatever is the name of minimap frame I managed to position in CENTER PlayerFrame and TargetFrame and FocusFrame with theirs offsets regardless of layout-local.txt... but for the love of god cant reproduce that with WatchFrame. This i need because i play on several platforms with different resolutions... so user custom setting on one computer is misplaced on another... need to clamp it to another frame that is clamped to uiparent so all elements align properly on every resolution. So your addon, as it may be usefull to just move it to certain position, cant do the job in my case. Although for now im using it and manually adjust quest tracker on every alt on every monitor whenever i change computer. hope you can help me... much appreciate in advance.

I've tried adding Code: wf:SetFont("") and a couple others in the code but I have no idea how to get it to work :s

Just add "wf:SetScale(0.8)" to the bottom of the code.

Found out why the position resets. New version will work like it should.

I see, thanks for reply. QuestWatch was blocking other elements of my ui, but now thanks to your addon, I dont have this problem anymore

.

e. I managed to get QuestWatchFrame to upper left side (just where I like it)
by doing /rl now and then while editing core.lua

Code:

local pos = { a1 = "TOPLEFT", a2 = "TOPLEFT", af = "UIParent", x = 80, y = -160 }

Only problem is that little arrow which lets me to hide and show quests remains on the right side.

Wonderful addon! It does just one thing, and does it well.

This is my preference for the positioning. I use MiniMap Button Frame with a couple of rows of icons under my minimap. This leaves just enough space to put the objectives underneath.

local pos = { a1 = "TOPRIGHT", a2 = "TOPRIGHT", af = "UIParent", x = 10, y = -225 }

Editing the core.lua and then doing a /console reloadui allowed me to play around with the numbers until I got them just right.

I hope this helps someone else out there.

Having this addon remember the positioning the user sets isn't really necessary, this edit is easy to do.

I also commented out the tooltip code, but that's just my preference.
