Just above the minimap (with background optional) or just under the top op the minimap (So it will lay over your map a bit, w/o a background of course) Something tells me you thought of such an option, and you didn't care or didn't want it. And of course I appreciate you're choice __________________ Stupid sig #666

But no, I wont be adding that feature, sorry.

Isokay didn't hurt to ask - I still love your mod.

Naw, I wasn't saying edit a file - the keybinding I was talking about was for the toggle between sizes not the show/hide. But thats okay I understand keep it simple it does what it is supposed to do and does it very nicely.

Thanks again for a nice addon.

Re: Re: Great addon - Middle Button/Tracking & Feature request!

to...

elseif btn == "LeftButton" then

This will swap the left and middle buttons around. Thus ping is changed to middle button and tracking to left button.

I have middle button mapped to different function so I had the same problem but wanted to keep the left button to ping. I use XBar mod which has a pre-built bar for just tracking that works the same as the tracking button except it is expandable/collapsible so you can see all the trackings at one time. You can remove or disable the other parts of xbar that you don't want to use they are each individual mini-addons in the package and are listed in the addons page.

OH AND BTW I LOVE THIS ADDON!!!

One question - is there a way to make it so that you can have two sizes/positions defined of the mini-map which can be swapped between with a key-binding. I like to have a BIG mini-map while traveling and farming and a smaller mini-map otherwise.

EDITED: Oh and btw how about an option to have it switch to one of the map sizes upon combat and back when exit combat?

Thanks again for a nice addon!

Thanks for the comments.

Color changes live for me as I move the slider, I can see the border color changing before I click ok, have you tried testing the latest version?

I will release 1.41 momentarily to fix that border bug, I was going to fix it in 1.4 and forgot, thanks for reminding me.

The only thing that annoys me a little bit (very very tiny little minimum annoyance lol) is that if I chance the border colour, it changes after OK is pressed, but I like it when I see it right away. It makes playing around easier.
But more annoying is it when I change border thickness the border colour goes back the grey(ish).. And I have to click the colour button and OK again in order to get it back to the colour I wanted
