Version: 3.0.1

by: Seerah [More]

See the Change Log tab for a list of all changes and updates.

PocketPlot 3.0!

PocketPlot has gone through a much needed, and long-awaited, rewrite! See the change log tab for a list of all changes in 3.0, including why I removed custom blip textures.

Features:

different shapes for your minimap (now 25!)
thin, black border (customizable color/alpha/thickness)
border and clock/coords have options to be colored by class
optional support for !ClassColors
moved and streamlined mail/bg/voice/LFG icons
moved zone text
option to hide zone text
hide tracking button (use shift-right-click on minimap to open menu)
SharedMedia support for fonts
zoom with mousewheel
hides map button, zoom in/out buttons, etc.
moved and streamlined clock
option to disable the clock
coordinates display (click coords to toggle world map, shift-click to send coords to chat)
"smart" coords/clock display (change positions depending on what's shown), can show below or above minimap **now with offsets
ability to move other frames related to the minimap (durability, vehicle seat indicator, instance difficulty/guild flag)
can also move WorldStateAlwaysUpFrame (top-center of screen status display)
right-click the minimap to toggle showing the in-game calendar (default flashing ? still shows for new calendar invites)
can change the alpha/transparency of the minimap
option to hide the minimap in combat and/or pet battles
each character has a choice of using either a global or character specific profile

FAQ:

Is there a slash command?
/pocketplot and /pp

How do I move the minimap or other frames?
In the PocketPlot config window, enable the mover for the frame you wish to reposition in the movers menu. Drag it wherever you wish. When finished, select "None" from the movers menu to get rid of the blue anchor. You can use the "Nudge" buttons to move a frame by one pixel at a time in any direction.

Where can I find more fonts?
For further font choices, I suggest the SharedMedia addon. Have a font you want to use that's not in there? Read the "Instructions for MyMedia.txt" file in the SharedMedia folder.

How can I move the tower capture bars?
I have opted to not support moving those, as it's a PITA to do so.

I suggest the mods Capping or SSPVP3 for all of your pvp needs (including moving the capture bars and score frame).

How can I give feedback?
Feel free to leave your comments/questions here, but all bug reports and feature requests need to go to my portal if you want me to remember to do them.

Bug Reports / Feature Requests

Can I use your code/blips?
All use of my code and custom blips separate from PocketPlot must be for your own personal use and they may not be redistributed separate from the addon. You may use snippets of my code in addons you intend to distribute only after receiving permission, and credit must be given.

Can I redistribute your addons?
My addons may only be redistributed in UI compilations, and any mention of the addon must point to its download page or my portal, both on wowinterface.

Do you accept cookies?
I love cookies! Unfortunately, they may turn to crumbs in the mail. Instead, you may donate to my cookie fund via PayPal.

I don't know, I don't use SexyMap and am not sure if it has a feature to change blips. You could put the blip texture in the SexyMap folder and then take the bit of code from pocketplot.lua that sets the blips and put it in one of the SexyMap files (changing file paths as necessary). Just remember that this would be for personal use only, and not for distribution in a UI.

Elviswind A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 1 File comments: 10 Uploads: 0	For a more uniform look to the text, I added a shadow to the coordinates text since the location and clock text have a shadow: Code: --COORDINATES coords:SetFont(LSM:Fetch("font",db.lsmfont), db.coordSize, db.fontFlag) coords:SetShadowOffset(1, -1) coords:SetShadowColor(0, 0, 0, 1) if db.coords then coordframe:Show() else coordframe:Hide() end Maybe something to consider for your next update.

The LFG tooltip popup when you click it seems to be designated to the bottom left of the minimap and doesn't adjust based on where the minimap is positioned. This makes placing the minimap in any corner but the Blizzard default unusable. If you could write some code to auto adjust its position based on which side of the screen the minimap is on, or set up some manual positioning for that frame, that would be awesome.

I also noticed there's a new flag icon which I assume is a dungeon difficulty display (showed up in a 5 man heroic and had a skull and '5' on it). I'm not sure if this is something you added or if this is Blizzard's doing but if you could add an option to KILL IT WITH FIRE that would be amazing!

Overall, I think I found my new minimap mod of choice, though. Excellent work.

The newest version can already move the little flag, and you could add LFDSearchStatus in the lua in order to move the said tooltip. Works great for me.

convict70 A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 4 File comments: 6 Uploads: 0	Thanks for a great addon ! ! I'm having a small issue with the mover for the minimap. When I enable the mover and try to nudge down the map shoots over to the upper left corner. I have to reset the position each time and can't move the map down.

Same thing here.

Is it the comma's fault?

This. The correct line #43 (including tabs) is:

Code:

					"MiniMapInstanceDifficulty",

If you're using a round map and don't mind having the icons inside the map, my CookieMagic optional LUA is already fixed.
