I've had reports that the SetHeight error may still lurking. I am looking into it. Let me know if you get it.
Note that due to the stopwatch slash command, StatusWindow no longer uses /sw. Use /statuswindow. Yes, that's a pain in the butt =)
Version 2.2.0
- You should not get errors opening the backpack anymore
- Some small tweaks and additions (alpha for backdrops and borders works correctly now!)
To Do:
* Sorting of guild/friend lists
* Option for disabling click-to-open for guild/bag/friend
StatusWindow allows you to build any number of StatusWindows. A StatusWindow holds up to 10 frames. Each StatusWindow can be moved to wherever you wish on screen, just hold down the Alt key and drag. Each frame in a StatusWindow has a pane and a module attached to it. The module creates something to display, such as a clock, latency meter, FPS meter, durability monitor, health regen monitor, mana regen monitor, and so on. The pane is what displays the output of module.
Known Bugs
* None at the moment
What you can do:
* Test it, break it! Then write me a nice description of what you did to break it.
* Feedback! What could be improved or added?
Modules included with basic StatusWindow are:
* Time
* Latency
* Framerate
* Health Regeneration
* Mana Regeneration
* Durability
* Experience
* Position (coordinates)
* Item Count
* Money
* Bag Slots
* PVP honour for this session
* UI memory
* Friends online
* Guild online
To open the StatusWindow options window: /statuswindow or /sw
Condfiguring StatusWindow
(Hint: Shift+Clicking a StatusWindow while the options frame is open will change the window selection to that window)
* Select the StatusWindow to configure using the top left dropdown in the configuration window. A list of the frames in that window will appear in the left side panel, along with the current window configuration in the dropdowns, buttons, and sliders in the left pane.
* Clicking a frame in the list opens its configuration options in the right side panel. Select the module to attach to the frame, and its width. If the module has any specific configuration items, they will appear at the bottom of the panel.
* Everything else should be reasonably self evident (I hope)
Configurable labels
Most modules have configurable labels now. Individual variables that are available are represented like $1, $2, etc. There is a ? button beside the label edit field that will tell you what is available for modules. I finally got around to making it so that hitting enter in the label edit box will also apply the current label in it.
For example, setting the clock module label to $1:$3 will give you the time in 24-hour format (23:30), while the default label of $2:$3 $4 will give the standard AM/PM format (11:30 PM).
For modules that have icons available, putting $i at the beginning of the label will display it. In the bag slot module, $i $2/$3 will display the bag icon with the number of unused bag slots and the total bag slots. The only valid place for $i is at the beginning of a label (at least for now). The help tooltip will show $i as an available variable if the module has an icon.
Label text justify
There is now a slider to set each module's text justifiication (left/centre/right). Modules with icons look dumb with anything but left justify.
Text colour
There is now a colour button for setting a window's text colour. Also a checkbox to override the colour settings of modules that have their own colour schemes (latency, durability, etc.)
Frames in row
The Frames in row slider replaces the horizontal checkbox. Set it to 1 for a vertical stack, to the number of frames in the window for a horizontal row, or anywhere in between to make multiple rows.
Change Log - Status Window 2
Version 2.2.0
- You should not get errors opening the backpack anymore
- Some small tweaks and additions (alpha for backdrops and borders works correctly now!)
I've noticed 1 or 2 other people have experienced this issue. Has anyone figured out a workaround for this? It appears to only NOT work if my status windows 2 is running.
Thanks! Love the add-on! Especially the new features!
1) I'm missing a string in the localisation file. That's for me to fix.
2) You have the StatusWindow Options addon disabled. That's for you to fix.
I am having the same problem. I do have Status Window Options in the same directory as StatusWindow. However, I only the option of turning ON (in addons on the Character Select screen) StatusWindow. It does not list StatusWindow Options. Ideas? Help?
Thanks for your time.
***** NM, reinstalled it over the other directories (with a fresh D/L) and seems fine.... dunno.

Hope you don't mind but as a Hunter class knowing my ammo count is quite important without having to select the item within my backpack or as I level and get higher ammo upgrades.
Shoot, I coulda swore I copied that folder into my addons :/ That'll teach me to try to fiddle around with things without doublechecking to make sure they're loaded, heh.
Hi Satrina, I get the following error when I try to enter /statuswindow to configure it. Won't open the options window 0.o Actually, I press Enter, and nothing happens at all, heh. Any ideas?

Originally posted by Spa After the new patch though, i'm getting an issue:
After installing most addons I had before patch, I couldn't find a way to open all my bags without getting an error. Then I disabled and tried all addons one by one till I find that was Status Window conflicting with some addon from blizzard (I believe). So when I try to open all my bags at once (shift+B for instance) I get that error and only my 1st bag opens, this having SW enabled that is.
Ditto ... disabled all addons, ONLY Status Window 2 enabled, try to open all windows and I get:
Code:
...terface\AddOns\Blizzard_TokenUI\Blizzard_tokenUI.lua:249:attempt to
call method 'SetHeight'(a nil value)
I absolutely LOVE this add-on by the way. Got hooked with it's predecessor's inclusion in Mazzle. Now any UI without it seems ... lacking.
Hia, grats for such a nice addon Strina
