what you need to do is make a new folder in your addons folder and called it Textures (I guess) and just upload through Kgpanels config from that folder when you do.

i.e: \\interface\\addons\\Textures\\stxxxx

Once you've entered in the info, you should double check to make sure that the textures are coming up right when you do so. As far as dominos, there is no set way. These textures only provide a backdrop for your own purposes.

I put the info in, reloaded ui, restarted the game, etc. and still nothing.

Interesting. You might want to check the strata of each panel and make sure they are correct there. It could be having an issue figuring out which panel should be over the other if they are of the same strata. Other than that, I don't know what the problem could be, since that would be a KGPanels issue and not MTP issue.

As an example I will show my work in progress. Note that behind most of the panels, you see black. This is because I changed the aperture to start the view just below the top of the left and right panels, so only a small portion of the center is over the actual view. If that works for you, do a search for "viewport" here and you will find several addons that do that. I am using Sunn's. @Landrell Thank you very much for these panels and I hope you don't mind me changing the colors...I love vibrant blues. Last edited by Tempestas : 05-04-09 at 06:03 PM.

Thanks

It's not like I can't live with it, but would be nice to have that fixed ;p
I might know a solution though, create a new panel (without texture, so it's invisible) scale it exactly so it fits perfectly behind the textures and then make it intercept clicks.
You click through the textures, but the invisible panel behind it blocks it from selecting things. Have to try it out tho :P

And to the other guy, in order to make the panels click through, just lock them, "lock panel"look for that.

You completely missed the point. Read again

I'm in an instance, in combat.

Party members and mobs around me.

I have to click on a spell or something...

I miss click (fail..) and click on the texture.

Though there's a party member behind the texture (hidden behind the texture art)

I target that party member - because I clicked it.

What I want it to do, is that the art module doesn't let me click through it.. So I can missclick as much as I like without targetting things I don't actually see. Normally this wouldn't be much of a problem, because I see those party members through my buttons (alpha) and are aware that they are actually there. With the art in tehre, I don't see them
As I said before, I can make them click trhough but it'll give some problems for me because the canvas is bigger then the art, but kgPanels doesn't see that. It thinks it's actually that big!
It's not thát bad, just small annoyance.

<3 is still around though

Though, do you know how I can make the textures not click through? I know I can intercept clicks, but then I get into trouble with those big canvasses.. can.. What's the multiple of canvas? lol.. Right.. But you understand what I mean right? :P

Hey there!

Glad that you like the package, and let me explain a little about the sizing so you'll know why it's done that way. When I originally did the art, the pixel by pixel size was 512x256, or 256x256, etc. When I am done with making the textures, they are rather big so I actually have to size them down 25% so they look better on screen. However, you have to take into account that when this is done, the canvas also gets sized down as well. The canvas itself must maintain the multiples of 2 which, Blizzard dictates this when doing anything graphics-wise. So I have to resize the canvas, throw the alpha on and convert to TARGA and I'm all done!

The blue box that you see is the KgPanel texture box. Once you lock the panel, it'll be fine. Now, if I didn't resize to the multiples of two, you wouldn't be able to see the texture at all. Hence the blue frame you see. I hope that helps you out a little bit.

I'll post my UI soon enough in here, I just the omen/recount thing also for my unit frames, dunno why.. Just had to lol XD But nicely done.

Only thing that annoyed me was that your graphics aren't cut very well. I mean if you hover over the art (with kgpanels on) you see the blue/teal(ish) square to move it, but doesn't fit the art. It goes wide(read: wiiiiiiiide) around it :O Maybe want to cut that off? (photoshop?) Should be possible
Makes moving (with x/y in kgpanels) easier

But really nice package whatsoever
