Re: bg bug

I uploaded a fix for it, thanks for the report.

I'm a little under the weather right now so it may take me a little while to get to things, but I will get to them eventually.

I actually went through every map that my addon modifies to make sure they all display correctly, and they should all work now, but of course if you notice any more problems just let me know.

Sorry, all of my free time has been devoted to another project recently, but I went ahead and spent the morning updating this for you.

I removed the check box and added a button to the top left of the map frame to let you pick the display method.

Let me know if you encounter any problems with it.

Thanks your other project looks awsome (are you planing to hide subzonesnames on the overview map or mybe show the bignames on top?) And will the names translate automatic?


To foglight update:

1. is it possible to remove the texture of the fog button? so it only shows the fog text as clickable button?

2. The "All Terain" Button is hard to hit if I use mMap. The button is only hitable on the very top because its overlaying the map.

3. Its not a big deal but if you close the map while options are open the options are still there next time you open it (but they'll fade then)

4. Woudn't it be cooler with a dropdown (drop upwards) menu?

5. the Player arrow is faded out in the "All Terain" view

Okay, I replaced the menu with a dropdown version and moved it to the bottom right corner of the map. I fixed the terrain showing up over the player arrow.

The reason you couldn't use the menu with mMap is because they set the frame strata of the title bar (the one you click to drag) to the highest possible setting so it just shows up over everything else. I don't know why they did this because as far as I can tell you can't drag the mMap window.

Anyway, to answer your questions about my subzone project - I will be making it draw on the normal map but I haven't yet decided what it will look like, you're welcome to offer any suggestions. It definitely won't look like the northrend screenshot, they will only display on (basically) the smallest map they appear on.

Although I am kind of partial to this look.

It isn't possible to have it get the localized names in-game, but I can generate translations if I download the other clients. It's a pain in the ass but still considerably easier than manually translating them.

The map is dragable (has to be enabled in lua -> local lock_map_position = false) for my Interface I have modiefied the map to show up biger, it has a transperent black border and I made cordinates more precise.

The new dropdown looks much better!
But there is no way to hide the the button texture (not the dropdown arrow) or maybe only make it thiner/shorter? I dont know about the hide part the dropdown menu but I tryed to resize it by myself with UIDropDownMenu_SetWidth(frame, width, padding) but don't realy know what i have to put into it so it works...

Wowhead just exports the data from the other versions of the client.

If you want to hide the background of the menu you can try this..
Lua Code:
  1. foglightmenuLeft:Hide()
  2. foglightmenuMiddle:Hide()
  3. foglightmenuRight:Hide()

The only way it wouldn't work is if you put it above where the menu is created, and that would throw an error. Anywhere after "local menu [...]" should do it.



If you want to change the graphic for the button you can use foglightmenuButton:SetNormalTexture('path') (there's also SetPushedTexture and SetHighlightTexture).

Ah, also if you want to make it so you can click on the menu instead of the button to pull it up you can do this..
Lua Code:
  1. foglightmenu:SetScript('OnMouseDown', function(self) ToggleDropDownMenu(nil, nil, self) end)

foglightmenuText:SetJustifyH('LEFT') will left-align the text.

The last option on the list makes it just fill in unexplored areas and hides the terrain map. You'll only notice a difference on a character that hasn't explored the map yet.

I added screenshots with the different modes so you can see the difference.

Oh yeah, here's an earlier screenshot of my other addon localized.

I understand what the modes did but thought the names of the buttons don't let you know what they do so I changed it like this now:
local moads = {'Hybrid', 'Off', 'Satmap', 'Unexplored'}

I'm thinking about for what the addon coud be usfull for, maybe Questing? Or if you want to explore a part of the map there shoud be a indicator to show where you have to go to trigger it.

Re: Vashjir

The images of Vashjir are of the surface, there are a separate set of underwater images, I can change it in the next release.
