QuestItemBar

Version: 0.5

by: Nickenyfiken [More]

===About QuestItemBar===
Automatically shows a bar with buttons for the quest items you possess. It looks similar to a standard action bar. It is based on Ace3 and various embedded libraries provided by the Ace-community.

===Bug reports and feature requests===
Please use the [http://www.wowace.com/projects/questitembar/create-ticket/ Ticket system]. If you use it there is a higher probability that something will be fixed or implemented.

===Features===
*Behaves more or less like any standard action button.
*ButtonFacade support.
*LibDataBroker launcher.
*Show all or only usable quest items.
*Should work on any WoW language client. Please report if it doesn't.

===Configuration===
*Open a configuration dialog using the commands "/qib config" or "/QuestItemBar config" or by clicking the LDB launcher.
*Configuration can be done using commands too. /qib <command>:
**lock - Lock bar and hide anchor.
**onlyUsable - Show only usable items and hide all other quest items.
**styleheader - Bar Style & Layout
**alpha - Configure the alpha of the bar.
**alphaHover - Configure the alpha of the bar when mouse is over.
**scale - Configure the scale of the bar.
**padding - Configure the padding of the buttons.
**direction - Configure the direction of the buttons from the anchor.
**ignoreItem ([ItemLink] | ItemName). Same command to stop ignoring a item. It is also possible to drag and drop a item to the ignore item textbox in the config GUI.
**config - Open the blizzard configuration UI.
*Change the direction (growth) by right clicking on the anchor.

===Planned features===
*Keybindings. Not sure exactly how it will be designed.
*Ideas?

===Credits===
Ace community for Ace3 and the other libraries used. Authors of Bartender, Qbar, Recount for some great code examples.

*Localization

Yep. QBar and other similar mods have other pros, cons and features. I have used all of them (I think) before and those addons was my main inspiration. I primarily wrote QuestItemBar because I was in a coding mood and this was the most interesting addon thin that popped up :-) I also wanted to have something with support for ButtonFacade, to blend in better in my UI.

There's some quest items I do not plan on getting rid of (Dartol's Rod of Transformation) or some quest items that remain in your bags (Oracles daily crystal/ball).

The ignore list doesn't remove the items from the bar or list what's on the ignore list when you press the button. The chat output does show the message that "[xxx] is now ignored." But yeah, I still see the items. Great addon, so far it seems clean and tidy, though I admit I haven't tested it out too much thus far. __________________ Last edited by Anaral : 01-13-09 at 01:23 PM.

Sorry I can't reproduce that. The moment i ignore or remove a ignored item the bar changes.

However there is a bug with the list ignored items. It is not working at all in 0.4 but is fixed in the latest alpha.

Qbar's Buttonfacade plugin does not retain the color settings last time I used it, for what it's worth.

My suggestion for QuestItemBar would be to have a keybinding for the last used quest item, it tends to be very handy.

It allows you to type /kb to go into keybinding mode for all supporting bar mods, and just mouse over a button to bind it. It's a great lib for helping to make a common UI. Also, please look here http://www.wowace.com/projects/libst...ges/common-ui/ if you want to make QIB ever more compatible Thanks

I'll try it out. I'll also delete my saved variables, just in case they got corrupted or something.

Thank you.

EDIT: I installed fresh and even deleted the saved variables for QIB. While it lists that I want to have the item ignored, it's not ignoring it. It doesn't seem to matter if I put in the full name or the item number (item:#####). Here's a link to a screenshot: http://up.norganna.org/index.php/vkC...609_121149.jpg

Hmm the ItemLinks really look broken, weird. Can you somehow send me or post your QuestItemBar.lua saved var file? It is possible i screwed up somehow so it is only working with real item links (shift-click item). I do know it is also working if you drop a item in the textbox in the config UI.

It was me screwing up. It was only possible to ignore items using the exakt itemLink for the item in your bag. So it was not possible to ignore items by name or id properly. Should be working correct in latest alpha.

Awesome it works now! You have made a truly awesome addon. There may be others, but yours is now the best.

In all honesty making it so it binds to the last used quest item would be the smartest way to go at least imo, and using LibKeyBound would just be overthinking it.

Please look into this API call for what you need:

http://www.wowwiki.com/API_SetBinding

Basically do a OnMouseDown or OnMouseUp then call SetBinding to a stored keybinding.
