NotesUNeed  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: v6.63.33500
by: Telic, AJH16

___________________________________________________

NotesUNeed v6.63.33500 - Adrill of Eonar (US)
Originally created by Telic of Dragonblight (EU)
___________________________________________________

- fixed ChatFrameEditBox issue as reported by ameyaselene. Thanks for the great bug report.

Additionally, if anyone else would additionally be interested in working on maintaining this mod with me, I am looking in to setting NuN up on a repository to allow multiple contributors to work on it. PM me if you want to get involved.

AJ (Adrill of Eonar/US)




Feature-rich, searchable Notes database with many automated features, and additional NuN tooltips for viewing note details.

Make Contact Notes on other Players, or General Notes on anything else.

This AddOn is for making your own custom notes on players, and quests, and items, etc. and does not come with any pre-made notes.
It does provide an Export and Import Feature for sharing of sets of notes, or publishing of note databases.

There is no longer an "Alternative" version of NuN, and the default Modifier keys for creating notes from Container Items and Hyperlinks is now simply "<Alt>-Left Mouse Click". For anyone unhappy with this key-Combo, then they can now specify their own via the NotesUNeed Options frame.

Compatible with Titan via : TitanNotesUNeed
http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/titannotesuneed.aspx

Compatible with LibDataBroker AddOns via : NuN-LDB
http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/info13550-NuN-LDBLibDataBrokerAddonforNotesUNeed.html


Below is a summary of NotesUNeed functionality, but you should read the Readme.txt file for much more detailed discussion on these subjects.

- Create Contact notes :
a) using new NuN buttons in the Friends Frame
b) using the NuN Micro Buttons described in point 3

- Options : toggle the NuN Options frame
- Note Browser : toggle the NuN Note Browser frame

- search for notes containing text you specify in the edit box

b) Right click : Case sensitive search
- filter visible notes from the Options Frame

- a tick indicates a General note is saved at Account level
- hover over a note to see its contents in a Tooltip
- Right-Click to open the sticky NuN PinUp Tooltip
- <Shift>Left-Click to paste the note name in to open chat box
- After filtering and searching to narrow down the visible set of Notes, you can :
a) Mass delete those listed in the browser frame
b) Export listed notes for other players to install and Import

5.) Options frame - open via the Microbuttons or slash command "/nun"
Configure NotesUNeed here, or filter the notes to appear in the Note
Browser frame. For example, to just look at NPC notes, or browse
Quest History for one of your Toons

6.) Backup and Restore functionality to save your database
This functionality is kept in separate LoadOnDemand AddOns to save memory.
Both the Backup and Restore processes will execute a ReloadUI()

7.) Import and Export of notes Databases
Share sets of notes with friends, or publish notes databases as a Plugin
for others to Import

8.) Broadcasting & Sending of NotesUNeed Notes
Broadcast Raid Instructions for Boss enchounters or PvP strategy, or
just your enchant selling menu; Or send formatted notes for other
NotesUNeed users to add to their database.

Hi

@AJH16 & 'To Whom It May Concern'

I had an e-mail on the 10th of December about NuN, which I replied to, not sure if that is you AJH16, and if it is you then I'm not sure what else you are waiting for - perhaps my reply didn't get through your spam filter...

No e-mails recently about NuN.

[Note that I'm not revealing the e-mails of people who have contacted me, as they may not want private addresses published on these public pages; And they may not be you.]

If you are having trouble contacting me, then try PM'ing me on this web site, and I will reply to that.

However, as far as I am concerned, people have Carte Blanche to take my work and modify & release it under a new name if they so wish. Not sure if WoWInterface need special permission from me before they will allow a fan's update....

Second update, I have successfully fixed NuN for 3.3. For the technical, you need to do two things.

First, search through the NotesUNeed.lua and comment (put -- at the beginning of the line) every line or branch condition that is based on something containing LFM.

Second, open the NotesUNeed.xml and remove all LFM button overrides.

Striping all this out will remove the LFM integration allowing the rest of the mod to function without crashing.

I have an e-mail in to Telic and will post my code as a 3.3 version as soon as I have access to do so.

Re: I'm gonna take a look

A little more info on this as I've had some time to look at it tonight. For any other mod dev types out there, the main issue seems to be several dependencies in NuN on the LFM Frame. Presumably this changed with 3.3 with the introduction of the instance match making feature. I'm looking around for some ideas on how to fix and/or simply disengage this particular portion of NuN so that it won't continue crashing when trying to reference a wowUI object that no longer exists. Telic, if you still check this thread and have any comments on how dependent NuN is on the LFMFrame, it would be greatly appreciated.

I'm gonna take a look

Just to give some hope to NuN users that were frustrated when it broke in 3.3, I am not sure when I will have time, but I am planning on trying to fix the incompatibilities and get it up and running. Telic, thanks for all the work you did on this mod and so many others. I know a lot of my favorite mods are ones you made. If you have any documentation on your code aside from whatever comments are in it, it would be a great help. I've done some contributing edits for Group Calendar in the past. I don't have the time to take over NuN, but hopefully I can keep it running.

Arrow NotesUNeed Alternative

I used to use Tinypad. It wasn't so bad, very simplistic and light-weight that's for sure. I tried it out when I got tired of the bulk of NuN. I used TinyPad for a few months and eventually just came back to NotesUNeed.

http://www.wowinterface.com/download...7-TinyPad.html

I am going to give Cirk's Notebook a shot. There is a link for it a couple replies down from this one.

Cirk's Notebook will give you an error message because it isn't updated for patch 3.3 but it's super easy to fix.

Just search this site for Cirk's other addon called Cirk's Badapples and look at the fix for that, it's the exact same error message for both his addons.

Thank you, Telic! Thanks for making NotesUNeed!

As for a possible replacement add-on, I just remembered having tried Hack. It hasn't been updated to officially work with patch 3.3, however, manually changing the interface number in Hack.toc to 30300 does the trick. As far as I can tell, the add-on works flawlessly with this tweak.

All the best to the fellow NotesUNeed users on your quest to finding a replacement you like.

On a side note, now that I apparently can't access my NotesUNeed notes in-game due to the error messages, is there a way to extract them from the NotesUNeed.lua SavedVariables file? I was able to manually copy and paste most of them to the new Hack notebook, however, some special characters I'd like to keep are encoded in a way I can't decipher, like "Ððxxðôóðr". Does anyone know a way to transcode those characters into a human-readable format?

I would like to say thanks as well, NotesUNeed was a great addon, very handy.

My first searches for a potential (albeit inferior) replacement yields this:
