Minimap Button Frame

Version: 3.1.10f

by: Bachlott [More]

This little addon will gather up all of your addon minimap buttons and put them into a movable frame.

Features

- Minimap Button Skinning (Square Minimap Buttons)
- Add or Remove almost any minimap button
- Multiple Sorting Options - Including Custom!
- Collection of Blizzard Buttons
- Collect only the buttons you want
- Background Color can be changed from the config screen
- Hide most of the Blizzard Minimap Icons
- LDB Support
- Key Bindings
- Profile Support
- Basic Localization in English, Spanish, French, German, Korean, Russian, and Chinese (Simplified and Traditional)

Future Features

- Full LDB version of MBF

Known Issues

Metamap minimap button is incompatable due to the way it is handled in the addon.

The addon does not grab button that do not have a name currently.

Currently discovered addons that are this way are:

Enchantrix (Part of Auctioneer Advanced)
onRaid

The Blizzard buttons that only show up under certain conditions, (battleground, LFG) will only display on the Frame when they are shown normally and active scanning is enabled. Otherwise they will apprear on the minimap when they are shown.

The Add feature is a little more powerful than I originally expected. So you can accidentally grab things that you didn't expect to be able to. (Other Addons) I've tried to protect the blizzard interface features and a couple other things, but let me know if you can grab something that you don't think you should be able to. If you do accidentally add something to the bag you can always remove it.

I've added a lot to the Localization, so it's another quick and dirty, horrible translation. Thanks again for the crazyness Google. So if you can do a better translation please help me out and submit it to me so I can add it to MBF. Hopefully Google didn't make them too funny or offensive.

Note:

The ability to add minimap icons to the table can be a general or partial name of the icons. The button override table add should be the exact name of the button that you want to override and collect.

As always your feedback is more than welcome!

The button is named and has parent Minimap. minibutton = CreateFrame("Button","EMPMINIMAPBUTTON",Minimap) Let me know if you need me to change something about the button.

I've looked into it and it doesn't collect due to a change I made to support pMinimap. So the buttonname partially matches it and gets excluded.

So the fix is very simple. I can add it to my exceptions list or if you want you can simply change the name of the button. I ran a test both ways and it works no problem.

The purpose of the addon was to put all the minimap buttons into one location, not more than one frame. So most likely this probably won't be an included feature in the foreseeable future.

Okay looking a little closer at the screenshot you put on imageshack. It looks like you're using a custom UI that is grabbing the gametimeframe after it's been put onto mbf. So it looks like a slight incompatibility. I think what you need to do to fix that would be to do a remove on the GameTimeFrame, put the cursor over it and press ctrl-r, then reload your UI. That will probably fix it.

Why the reload UI? Because right now MBF won't restore the frame border on removal. I haven't finished that part yet.

I guess you could also change the border to the default, remove the button the set it back to what you want.

Okay I will change the button name in my next version

Hopefully that will fix the couple of errors people are receiving. Please let me know if it doesn't of it there are new bugs. Or even if it's working correctly now if it wasn't before. 2.0b2 Fixed - Issue with EpicMusicPlayer Fixed - Issue trying to restoreSettings that were nil Fixed - Issue with savingSettings for things that didn't have a name (I shouldn't try to do it when I'm using the name as the storage key. lol) Change - Hid Invisible Button error message for Blizz Buttons. Until I get this bug squashed.

Looks like your settings got messed up somehow. If it will let you. Reset you setting to default from the config screen or you'll have to go to your saved variables and delete the MinimapButtonFrame.lua

This is only happening on my warrior,all my other characters are fine. Everything else works as it should, just can't get the button where I want it. Any suggestions?

Yeah that seems to be a bug with WoW. Sometimes things get screwy with the cursor and dragging. It's not just MBF that does it. I've had issues with it even from the WoW Raid interface as well. The only thing that seems to fix it sometimes is deleting the layout cache from the saved Variables folder.

Additional details: local version = "2.0"; MBF_DRAGTITLE = "MBF 2.0" but the readme notes suggest that this is version 2.0b2 installed on or around October 2. Code extract starting from line 772: function saveOldData(button) oldPoint, oldRelativeTo, oldRelativePoint, oldXofs, oldYofs = button:GetPoint(); if (oldPoint ~= nil) then oldName = button:GetName(); oldParentName = button:GetParent():GetName(); oldFrameLevel = button:GetFrameLevel(); oldOnDragStart = button:GetScript('OnDragStart'); oldOnDragStop = button:GetScript('OnDragStop'); oldOnEvent = button:GetScript('OnEvent'); oldWidth = button:GetWidth(); oldHeight = button:GetHeight(); oldScale = button:GetScale(); oldLevel = button:GetFrameLevel(); oldStrata = button:GetFrameStrata(); MBF_ButtonInfoStorage[button:GetName()] = { oldName, oldParentName, oldFrameLevel, oldPoint, oldRelativeTo, oldRelativePoint, oldXofs, oldYofs, oldOnDragStart, oldOnDragStop, oldOnEvent, oldWidth, oldHeight, oldScale, oldLevel, oldStrata }; else saveOldData(button) end end Also does not occur when playing on my other toon so I am now suspecting another addin conflict.

I'll need more info about exactly what's happening in order to fix it. Such as what version you're using, maybe a screenshot. Do you have active scanning on?

@jgomberg

Yeah I've seen this before. It's caused by what I did to fix one of the previous bugs. It only seems to happen when one of the buttons doesn't want to cooperate for a long period of time. My fix basically waited for the buttons location to be able to be read before grabbing it, but I think I can go about it a little better way than what I did.

hmm both things didn't work. ctrl+r shows the fps and a reload doesn't change anything then. I move the gametime icon with MoveAnything and simpleMinimap to this location so they grab the frame. If I change the optic to blizzard the icon gets another smaler round sun-symbol^^
