Bongos2

Version: 1.10.1

by: Tuller [More]

I have written a new action bar addon, called Dominos, and am no longer supporting this one. Please feel free to try it out, along with Trinity Bars, and Bartender 3

Bongos is an action bar replacement designed to be both low memory, and easy to setup. It is not as feature rich as other bar mods, but should include the features most commonly used.

Version History
A Brief Guide

Included Addons

Bongos2: The core addon.
Bongos2 ActionBar: Breaks up the main action bar into movable parts
Bongos2 Stats: A display for latency, framerate, and memory usage
Bongos2 RollBar: Makes the frame for rolling on items movable
Bongos2 CastBar: A movable casting bar, with the ability to show cast time
Bongos2 XP: A movable experience bar
Bongos2 MapBar: A movable mapbar
Bongos2 Options: A dynamically loaded options menu for Bongos

Features

Every Bongos bar can be moved, hidden, and have its scale and opacity altered
Sticky bars - Each bar can be anchored to any other bar
120 action buttons, which can be setup in any number of bars
Both macro and key binding text on action buttons can be hidden
Customizable stance transitions for each bar

General Settings

To bring up the options menu: type /bongos menu
To unlock bars: uncheck the lock bars option in the main options menu
To hide or show a bar: unlock bars, then middle click or shift right click it
To move a bar: unlock bars, and then click and drag it with the left mouse button
To bring up a bar's configuration menu, right click it

Key Bindings

Bindings for the Bongos action bar should only be done via the bindings menu in Bongos
To bind keys, open the main options panel, and select the bindings option. Hover over a button, then press a key to bind it to that button

Action Bar Settings

Accessing general action bar options: open up the main options window (/bongos menu) and select the action bars panel
Adjusting the layout of a given bar: unlock bars and right click the bar you want to adjust to bring up its configuration menu
Moving buttons: Hold down the key for moving buttons (shift by default), and drag a button. Alternatively, unlock button positions by shift right clicking the mini map button, or unchecking the option in the main options menu
Making a bar bigger: You can increase the maximum size of a given bar by reducing the number of action bars. To do so, adjust the action bars slider on the action bar panel of the main options menu. This option will reset the settings of your action bars

Stances and Paging

Stances and paging are configured via a bar's right click menu. With bars unlocked, right click the bar you want to change,

Slash Commands

All commands start with either /bongos, /bob, or /bgs
<barList> can have a possible value of an actionbar number, menu, bags, pet. class, or all
You can also specify a group or range of bars, the command /bo scale 1-3 class 1.2 will scale action bars 1 2 3, and the class bar to 120% of their normal size.
/bongos - Shows the options menu, if present
/bongos lock - Toggles locking bars positions
/bongos show <barList> - Shows <barList>
/bongos hide <barList> - Hides <barList>
/bongos toggle <barList> - Toggles <barList>
/bongos scale <barList> <scale> - Sets the scale of <barList> to <scale>
/bongos setalpha <barList> <opacity> - Sets the opacity of <barList> to <opacity>
/bongos set <profile> - Sets the current character to use <profile>
/bongos copy <profile> - Copies all settings from <profile>
/bongos delete <profile> - Deletes <profile>
/bongos reset - Loads default settings
/bongos version - Displays what version of bongos you're running
/keybound - Toggles keybinding mode

That would be because your tracking a reputation faction. Go into your reputation tab under character frame find a faction with a tick next to it and then deselect it.

2nd - I didn't try 1.9.4 because I'm in work now but with version 1.9.3 I still had problem to make Bongos2 and CowTip work together well. Tooltips are flashing - one near action button anchored with CowTip and 2nd in standard blizzard tooltip location. I had this problem with bongos2 pre 2.3

Solution for that in my case was:
Bongos2_ActionBar\actionBar\button.lua
line 400
if GetCVar('UberTooltips') == '1' then

change into
if GetCVar('UberTooltips') ~= '1' then

After that I had to enabled "detailed tooltip" in wow interface

Can You please fix this issue in next version of bongos2 (or You did it in 1.9.4 - I'll try this today)

Fix worked for me (in 1.9.5 as well, thanks!)

borbies A Fallenroot Satyr Forum posts: 21 File comments: 43 Uploads: 0	Firstly, thank you for fixing the Auto Fade feature with bars clamped to the left screen edge. However, I found a bug pertaining to binding keys directly to macro's. The problem comes when you delete or add a new macro. Since they are sorted by name, they all shift one way or the other when doing this, but the bindings do now shift with them, therefore every single binding is now wrong.

I actually didn't think about that one, I'll try and save them by name

repeating a bunch of times. Thanks in advance.

Whenever you anchor anything that's secure to a non secure frame (ie, an actionbar to the cast bar), the frame you're anchoring to becomes secure in a sense. So, you're not allowed to do anything like resize the frame. The solution here is to not anchor any secure things to the cast bar (pet, class, or action bars).

Djagamoone A Deviate Faerie Dragon Forum posts: 10 File comments: 19 Uploads: 0	Hi there, I run bongos, and have since back when Discord flopped. With 2.3 the WoW Tech forums are just cluttered with FPS drop posts, and some of them are illuding to Bongos as being one of the sources. I haven't had time to test without Bongos, etc ... but I was just wondering if you knew about this, and/or had an plans to deal with it? Sorry I don't have more to offer like a link to a specific post, but the tech forums are a jumbled mess and I couldn't find info there if I was Sherlock Holmes. Thanks, and sorry for the strangeness of this comment, but any feedback you have would be appreciated!

The first released 2.3 version of Bongos (1.9.2) had significant FPS issues with the buff and debuff highlighting code. All newer versions have this issue fixed.
