Minimap Button Frame  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 3.1.10f
by: Bachlott [More]

This little addon will gather up all of your addon minimap buttons and put them into a movable frame.

Features

- Minimap Button Skinning (Square Minimap Buttons)
- Add or Remove almost any minimap button
- Multiple Sorting Options - Including Custom!
- Collection of Blizzard Buttons
- Collect only the buttons you want
- Background Color can be changed from the config screen
- Hide most of the Blizzard Minimap Icons
- LDB Support
- Key Bindings
- Profile Support
- Basic Localization in English, Spanish, French, German, Korean, Russian, and Chinese (Simplified and Traditional)

Future Features

- Full LDB version of MBF

Known Issues

Metamap minimap button is incompatable due to the way it is handled in the addon.

The addon does not grab button that do not have a name currently.

Currently discovered addons that are this way are:

Enchantrix (Part of Auctioneer Advanced)
onRaid

The Blizzard buttons that only show up under certain conditions, (battleground, LFG) will only display on the Frame when they are shown normally and active scanning is enabled. Otherwise they will apprear on the minimap when they are shown.

The Add feature is a little more powerful than I originally expected. So you can accidentally grab things that you didn't expect to be able to. (Other Addons) I've tried to protect the blizzard interface features and a couple other things, but let me know if you can grab something that you don't think you should be able to. If you do accidentally add something to the bag you can always remove it.

I've added a lot to the Localization, so it's another quick and dirty, horrible translation. Thanks again for the crazyness Google. So if you can do a better translation please help me out and submit it to me so I can add it to MBF. Hopefully Google didn't make them too funny or offensive.

Note:

The ability to add minimap icons to the table can be a general or partial name of the icons. The button override table add should be the exact name of the button that you want to override and collect.

As always your feedback is more than welcome!

I haven't tested it with it yet. If it has any issues it would be a quick fix.

Edit.

It didn't get along with Squeenix. Made a quick fix to not grab anything that wasn't named.

SWStats is fixed in version 0.9b along with all the others that were setup like it.
The atlas minimap button was setup the same way but I had already caught that one.
Any other setup that way will now be caught automatically.

There are still a couple known addons that are setup slightly differently that I don't catch automatically.

CT Mod and WIM are examples that I've caught of this type. Even though CT Mod has the additional issue on it's button not being named.

When I get the manual add and remove finished any other odd balls like that can be easily grabbed and put into the frame if they are encountered.

background after locked

I like this addon, I used to use MiniMapButtonBag, but I like how this controls rows better. One thing I did not like about this was the background of the frame persists after the frame is locked. Here is the code changes I did to turn off the background after you lock:

function MBFC_ColorLocked()
if (locked) then
MinimapButtonFrame:SetBackdropBorderColor(0,0,0,0);
MinimapButtonFrame:SetBackdropColor(0,0,0,0);
else
MinimapButtonFrame:SetBackdropBorderColor(1,1,1,1);
MinimapButtonFrame:SetBackdropColor(0,0,0,1);
end
end

and then I call it in a few spots:

in MBF_OnEvent() after: MinimapButtonFrame:SetScale(addonScale);
in MBF_Scan() at the end
in MBFC_LockedToggle() at the end
in MBF_Init() at the end

works perfectly, I hope you use it

Sure I'll add it. I'll even put in a little checkbox in the config that lets you toggle the feature.

It will be included with the next version. Maybe sooner if the add / remove stuff doesn't cooperate.

Thanks for the suggestion and code.

Nice addon.

got some suggestions for the author though,

hmm, wouldn't it be great if we could rearrange the position of the minimap buttons
within the frame.

Also, I use trinity2bar, and the trinity2bar would spring out 5 small config buttons
when clicked. And it kind of looks very crowdedly.

Is there a way to let user customize that? for example, showing a list of minimap buttons that are collected in the frame, and let users select or deselect which minimap buttons they'd rather it stays out of the frame.

I try clicking the frame's minimap button, but it would only
show or hide the frame, instead of displaying a config menu.

thanks for this excellent works, please keep up the good work

Sorry it was late and I didn't have time to put in the tooltip.

Left click simply hides or shows the minimap.

Right click and drag allows you to drag the button to anywhere on the UI.

Middle click brings up the configuration screen.


Also I'm not entirely happy with the way that works atm so I was debating changing the drag to something like <Shift> <Right Click> and drag

For the choice of the buttons on the frame I'm still working on that particular bit of functionality. I hadn't quite decided how I wanted that to be handled yet.

But a separate screen that listed all the buttons and allowed you to change the order and choose what buttons to include and what buttons to keep separate would work quite nicely.

Hopefully it won't end up too bloated.

Just noticed I should probably update my screenshots.

Too bad Wow is down atm.

It seems, increasing MBF alpha lowers Squeenix alpha. Is this intended? I am tearing my eyes out in frustration

add function to move the frame

suggestions: some have already been made but i'll say it too, i agree with srcwiz about selecting which buttons go in the frame, maybe make an option to color the frame in case we did want to show the buttons, to look better with w/e wild background we have like skinner, a gradient effect would be cool but not totally necessary and maybe an autohide until mouseover. besides that i like the concept, keep up the good work. More functions make it fun to play with.

That's strange. It's definately not intended. And it doesn't seem to be doing that for me. What other minimap and minimap button addons are you using? Maybe it's a conflict with one of them.

Yeah the ability to select which buttons are in the frame is coming. It's always been planned but I just haven't completed it yet.

Frame color sounds good too. I'll add that to the list of things to do after I get the add / remove stuff working..

Blizzard buttons

Would it be possible for you to add support for the Blizzard minimap buttons? Specifically the mail icon, voice chat icon, lfg icon, and bg queue icon. Would love to see those cleaned up so I can use your addon over Detached Mini Buttons. =)

Why not use both? I do. They don't seem to have any conflicts and neither take up much memory.

But I also admit that would be nice although i like being able to put the mail icon anywhere. Since I have 7 toons i play and their ui's are all different I like being able to place it in a nice spot where i can see it all the time.

Yeah support for the blizzard buttons is no problem. I'll have that working in the next version as well.
