    QuseMap
    Version: v1.3
    by: Qupe [More]
    Rectangular shaped minimap based on Dawn's dRecMap and Ichik's Wanderlust.

    DISCLAIMER:
    Due to how the minimap is made into a rectangle, placing the map flush
    against the top and bottom borders of the screen is impossible.

    The minimum space needed is already calculated for you in the LUA.

    FEATURES/FUNCTIONALITY:
    - Rectangular!
    - Lightweight
    - Easy-to-use .LUA config in "QuseMap.lua" file (to change anything past default, you must be willing to look at lua)
    - Snazzy "new mail" indicator
    - Picomenu (micro-menu) written by Neal, featured in Neav UI
    - Replaces instance difficulty flag with a text-based indicator

    - To open Picomenu, click the bright yellow square in bottom left of map
    - Right click anywhere on the map to bring up tracking list (default spot is top left corner)
    - Left click the clock for the calendar (or type /cl)
    - Right click the clock for the stopwatch frame
    - Clock will turn light maroon color when there is a pending calendar invite

    HOW TO:
    - Open the QuseMap.zip file
    - Place the QuseMap folder into your AddOns folder
    - Enable at the character select screen
    - Bananas!

    * If you would like to disable the Picomenu, delete/rename the "picomenu.lua" file from inside the addon folder.

    FONTS HOW TO:
    I have included both a pixel font and a non-pixel font in the folder.
    To swap between them choose either font at the top of the QuseMap.lua file (look for the large "CHANGE FONT HERE" text).

    For pixel fonts: change the value to true. For non-pixel fonts change value to false
    Lua Code:
    1. local pixelFont = true   -- false for normal fonts

    If you wish to change the font size or outline for either font change the values for your corresponding font:
    Lua Code:
    1. if pixelFont == true then
    2.     font = mediaFolder.."font2.ttf"     
    3.     fontsize = 8
    4.     fontflag = "OUTLINEMONOCHROME"
    5. else
    6.     font = mediaFolder.."font.ttf"  
    7.     fontsize = 12
    8.     fontflag = "OUTLINE"
    9. end
    * If you wish to change the supplied fonts, drag and drop your desired font into the media folder and rename it to font or font2 (font = non-pixel font, font2 = pixel font).

    TO DO:
    - Add Dawn's "hold-ALT-to-move" code back in.
    - Figure out how to make clock text flash when a pending invite is present.

    If you find any issues or have any suggestions/comments/issues, please leave a comment in the comments section!

    Oh, good, I had a response and everything ready to go then saw this!

    Glad it works, but not sure why it wouldn't work out with MiirTexture pack (maybe he has a skin for the minimap it doesn't work with?).
