Tidy Bar  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 5.2
by: danltiger [More]

TidyBar is a compact replacement for your action bars. It retains the design of the standard interface, which reducing the clutter on your screen.

Central Layout: The standard action buttons are centered on the bottom of the screen, with all your additional action buttons stacked above.

Vertical Action Bars: The action bars along the right side of your screen will remain hidden until you hover your mouse over the area.

Bags and Character Buttons: The bag and Character buttons are repositioned to the bottom right corner of your screen, and will remain hidden until you hover your mouse in that area.

Note: A well-known issue occurs when trying to enable or disable an actionbar while in combat; The bars do not reposition themselves until combat has finished. This is unlikely to ever be resolved, being a restriction in Blizzard's UI system; Only Blizzard code may change the position and visibility of a secure frame during combat.

Other Issues:
The stupid rested-state bar isn't positioning itself properly. I haven't had a chance to figure out a fix.




I'm not going to bug you by popping up an ad whenever you hit "Download". If you enjoy this addon and want to send a monetary "Thank You", please visit our Pledgie page by clicking on the button, above.

5.1: ToC bump

4.9:
- TOC Update for WoW 4.3
- Updated Corner Menu artwork

4.8:
- TOC update for WoW 4.2
- Updated for 4.2 UI Changes (Keyring removal, etc)

4.7:
Hopefully fixed the vehicle bar problems when the vehicle is destroyed, AND fixed the Flyout spell bar issue

4.2:
Hopefully fixed the experience bar and corner bar resetting.

---------------------
Ch-ch-ch-changes...
---------------------
3.14: Fixed Pet Bar, as I broke it when fixing shaman bar

3.13: Fixed the shaman totem bar problem. I think.. ;-)

Release 3.5: Main menu (character/spell/etc) buttons will properly stay visible when
the vehicle interface is shown. Fixed some issues with protected function calls.
New corner menu artwork! Hope you like it; I think it makes it look a wee bit
more polished.
---------------------
Release 3.4: Still trying to make sure the bar behaves well during vehicle switching. Added scaling.
---------------------
Release 3.3: Added event monitoring for exiting a vehicle, which will immediately update the bars.
---------------------
Release 3.2: Fixed issue where pet bar background was visible when bottom bars were hidden.
--------------------
Release 3.1: Changed TOC file to reflect the current interface version.
--------------------
Release 3: The side actionbars will now show up (regardless of mouseover) when the user drags an
actionbutton. The mouseover for the bag and mainmenu bars are now linked.
Code cleaned up; Should please my fellow developers. Removed some Runebar
positioning code (which was in there by accident).
--------------------
Release 2: Added mouseover behavior to the inner right-side action buttonbar. Added a
watcher frame under the Bags and Side Buttons to catch the mouseover when the
cursor is between the buttons. Previously, when you moved your cursor into
the narrow gap between the button sets, the buttons would disappear. Also,
removed dependency on Wowace! Slowly but surely, I'm cleaning it up.. ;-)
--------------------
Release 1: Initial Release

tested with my shadow priest on several mobs, on both normal and shadow form (ie with or without a Bonus Action Bar showed prior to the mind control)

if I mc an humanoid :
- bonusActionBar with the mob's skills appears
- shapeshiftBar disappears
- petActionBar with the mob's skills appears
- possessBar appears


another thought. In case of a ShapeshiftBar AND a PetActionBar both appearing, the layout is
[ ShapeshiftBar ]
[ PetActionBar ]
[ ActionBar 4 ]
[ ActionBar 3 ]
[ MainActionBar ]

It shoud be better to have a layout like this :
[ ShapeshiftBar ] [ PetActionBar ]
[ ActionBar 4 ]
[ ActionBar 3 ]
[ MainActionBar ]

that save one line on the UI

Re: New Shaman Bar

Yep; I'll look into that. Shouldn't be a problem :-)

Whew - finally got a chance to sit down for a bit. Haven't actually PLAYED WoW since 3.2 came out. *sigh*

Anyway, I've posted an update to the totem bar. I have not tested it extensively, so let me know if anything breaks..

You'll want to move your chat window around, I imagine. If you right click on the General tab, you can Unlock the chat window and move it around.

I'd removed the feature, since it required editing the LUA file. But, you can have similar functionality by looking under the standard Video Settings dialog, and clicking on "Use UI Scale", and adjusting the slider. It scales all of the UI elements at the same time.

Does that help?
