Bongos2  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

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

I seem to be having issues whenever I change my weapons in the middle of combat. I get a bit of lag that lasts about 1-2 seconds in which I'm unable to do anything, This normally wouldn't be an issue. However for my warrior this brief lag is crippling as I change my weapons when I go to defensive stance. I am using ItemRack to change my gear. I have updated to the newest version of bongos and even disabled ItemRack's macros for changing my gear, reverting back to using the hotbar directly to change my gear, with no change . I am also using FuBar.

Even without ItemRack I still experience lag. And I tested out changing stances with the standard blizzard hotbar, and that was the only time I experienced no lag. So I would appreciate any help.

Bongos 7112

Thanks for fixing the issue with the Bongos minimap button, but I'm still having an issue with the World Map minimap button. I can enable the option to show the World Map button and it'll work fine until I log out. When I log back in, it'll be hidden again. I tested this with all addons disabled except for bongos, bongos_actionbar, bongos_mapbar, and bongos_options. I also wiped out my wtf folder as well. Problem still exists after doing all that.

What are the settings for the problematic bar?

Confusion on my part, I'll check on the world map button. Simple solution is to press M for the world map

Can you double check this with 7.1.12? 7.1.11 had a bug where I was actually updating essentially all 120 slots on those events.

I'm using the combination of Bongos and OmniCC, and since I updated Bongos to 7.1.11 yesterday, my pet bars have been without cooldown indicators -- neither the numeric feedback, nor the radial timer. I have updated to 7.1.12, but this did not resolve the issue. Any ideas?

I noticed this at an awkward time... as my Wolf was tanking Hakkar, and I couldn't see at a glance whether Growl was casting!

Bar Paging

There seem to be an issue with the latest bongos causing ur buttons to activate different buttons, or not working at all. One of the times i experience the problem with the buttons not working at all, is when one bar (bar1 in my case) is changed to another page than the default, this causes my other bars and their actions not to work at all. I can see the button being activated but nothing happens.

Also I have encountered the following prolbem when im stealthed and try to move an ability on my stealth bar to a new spot.

Lets say I try to move Ability 10 to Slot 3, which happens to be empty in Bar7. I pick up the ability, all is fine, i click on ability slot 3 to place it, but what happens is that the ability disappear from my cursor, and instead I get Ability 3 from Bar1 on my cursor, still leaving slot3 in bar7 empty. So it seems as such Bar1, is in the background "behind" bar7, and when empty slots in bar 7 is used, the action basically goes through bar 7 and into bar 1.

Sorry if its fuzzy explained or an improper place to bring a bug.
Awesome addon, either way.

atm my issue is when I load up my mini menu is at the top left corner of the screen & not on the anchor where it should be. opening up bongos to unlock my bars and right licking the menu bar to toggling the vertical option on and off fixes it.

nothing major just annoyance is all

I have the exact same issue.
I deleted the saved variable + the Bongos folder hoping the solution would be fixed. No luck.

This bongos, last bongos

I noticed between a few days ago and today a new feature appeared and disappeared: docking

It took a bit to figure out, but my conclusion is thus:

docking > stance tab

I really, really liked the docking. How about bringing it back in?

Hi,

Kudos for the mod - I really like it.

Noticed a small glitch - when u move the menu bar and save a profile, next time you run the game the menu bar is always docked to topleft.

When you click the lock button, the menu text bar is to the position you have specified.

If you load the profile - all is OK.


Regards,
