Learning Aid main window

Learning Aid Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Learning Aid is for all those times when you've just leveled up, retalented, or learned a new trade skill and you've had to page through your spellbook looking for all those new icons.

When you learn a new ability, a new rank of an existing ability or a mini-pet or mount, Learning Aid pops up a window with the new ability icon in it, ready to be dragged to your Action Bar.

Directions

1. Learn a new ability!
2. Drag it to your action bar!
3. Click the close box to dismiss the window!

You can also shift-click an ability button to create a chat link, just like from the spellbook.

Options

Right-click on the window's title to lock the window so it does not move.

Compatiblity

Learning Aid is compatible with World of Warcraft version 3.1.3.

Latest Changes
v1.07:
Added a spam filter for "You have learned X." and "You have unlearned Y." system chat messages. Defaults to on.
Added the ability to automatically save deleted action buttons when you unlearn your talents either at a trainer or due to a major patch, and restore the buttons to your action bar when you relearn the spells or abilities.
Added Macaroon support to the macro scanner.
v1.07.1:
Fixed a long-standing bug that caused the wrong companion to appear in the Learning Aid window when learning a companion during a period of greater than usual server lag.
v.107.2:
Added German translation kindly provided by Freydis88.

I've been having this issue since a few weeks and can't determine if it's a Bartender or Learning Aid issue. Regardless, this is a handy addon C: thankyou for your work!

Right-clicking kept offering me the chance to lock the window, which eventually I tried and it then allowed me to move it. Any chance that it could be changed to show "unlock" if you've already locked it?

Thanks for the bug report! I'll take a look at it.

Thanks for the quick reply, and it was indeed quite laggy when I got that Argent Squire (though I got those 2 LA displayed about 6 months before)

Any clue on what may have caused this problem?

Thanks for the bug report! I've been seeing that behavior very rarely for a while, and I believe that finally I have the problem figured out. It seems to only appear when there's a great deal of server lag, which means I only managed to consistently reproduce it on patch day. It should be fixed in 1.07.1 which I hope to get out soon.

Cheers,
Jamash

No, Learning Aid only activates when you actually learn an ability. I use TrainerSkills to tell me what I can learn when I level.

No more trying to remember what the hell new talent or ability you got, no more spending time hunting for it in the spellbooks... Intelligence is seeing the big picture and the complex answers, Genius is finding the simple answer. This mod is Pure. Liquid. Genius.
