Button size

I am trying this addon in WoD, and noticed that Button size slider change the size of all buttons at once. Is it possible to set individual button size for each bar?
And another issue is related to hunter aspects. TinyextraBar doesn't show activated icon on aspect button, the button looks regular like aspect is not active.

You can use "Minimap Button Frame" or comment line 738 in TinyExtraBars.lua like
Code:
	--minimapButton = CreateFrame('Button', 'TinyExtraBarsMinimapButton', Minimap, 'TinyExtraBarsMinimapButtonTemplate')
Slash commands "/teb" or "/tinyextrabars"

That done for placing your buttons from Spellbook (occupies almost whole screen). And it should work only in "Settings mode" (I'll check).

Edit: fixed in 0.60
Works perfect now Thank You so much =)

when I hit the Print current stance in blood, frost, or unholly presence the stance does not change but the presence does.. So what am I missing to get the bars to show or hide based on my presence?

oh and thanks I really love this Addon.. tho I do use keybindings.. there are some things I use that I do not want keybound or I want in a bar in addition to a keybinding and I like to have things up where I can see them.. This addon fits all of those things and I really appreciate the work you put into this..
Unfortunately no. Blizzard made show/hide very limited only through own special events and there is nothing for presences (and I want it for my warlock too).

Strata Issue with bags and bank

Not sure what I am doing wrong but here is what I have and whats happening..

I have several TinyExtraBars at various places on my screen..
I have the Strata set to Background but say when I open my bags the bar starts behind the bag but If I pick up an item to move the BAR then comes in front of the bag and I can not get to the the bag slots behind the extra bar.. I do work around it but its a bit awkward..

The Bar is behind the bag


The bar is in front of the bag


So you can see when I pick up and item from my main bag the TinyExtraBar will come in front of my other bag on the screen..
It does this to my bank to.. the bar will cover up my bank screen..

So thats one problem I am not sure how to get past..

May I suggest a broker addition to this? I like to keep my minimap nice and tidy and all other addons kept in broker bars.
Addon is "Minimap Button Frame" compatible. Also minimap button can be moved anywhere.
I don't think making something to autoreplace "Minor Healing Potion" to something better at level 90 is worth of time spent. There is plenty of time during leveling to do it yourself and decide when exactly you need better potion.

Glow effect for macrotext buttons.

What is macrotext buttons: one day I was tired from some spells with "you have no target" while several mobs pummeling your pet or tank right in front of you. Targeting is extra time and by targeting by right-clicking mobs I succesfully agroed several groups far away in dungeons. Finally someone suggested to make macro with "/startattack" (targeting nearest hostile target in front of you).

Making it through standard macro interface have drawbacks like limited amount of slots and macro stored at server side. By using alternative macrotext I made "openers" like

/startattack
/cast Howling Blast

same for warlock's "Shadow Bolt" (Demonic Slash) and mage's "Firebolt". So instead of wasting time on targeting I simply clicking those buttons to target and start cast.

To make such macrotext button you can use "Macrotext" button attached to every button, type you macrotext (or clear to reset button to default state), drag spell from spellbook (it is enough) and type desired spell name to represent button's tooltip, cooldowns etc. Tooltip is optional if you want to override spell's tooltip.

Actually tried only now while farming Netherweb Spider Silk, works properly since 0.54.

Technically it is artwork layer for every button. So ... where you been when I was thinking about what to type there?

Will rename in next patch.

Anyway, it works a treat. And it's faster to react to Out of Range than even the standard Blizzard UI. In fact it's noticeably quicker. Remarkable!

taint fixes
settings for LastEffect etc are now global
full range color option, search for "out of range color" in Button.lua to play with colors

Edit: I set full range coloring to half red and 0.7 alpha, so out of range buttons slightly red and greyed. If it is not best color - suggest better.
