ALZA UI

version 2.2


The work on ALZA UI is stopped at the moment, so don't expect any more updates, except the ones that fix bugs.

Info
Hi all. Here is my user interface. It's pretty minimalistic and aimed mostly for solo play and raids.
The UI is optimised for 1680x1050 screen resolution and 0.73 ui scale.
Almost all addons in this package have settings only in .lua files. If you don't know how to edit lua files or don't want to learn *a bit* lua language - then this UI is probably not for you.
Memory usage: <400 kb with raid mods disabled, about 1mb in raid.
Hope you will enjoy ALZA UI =)

I made a small video to show interface in action: link. Be sure to watch it in HD and fullscreen.
New video (v. 2.0): link.

Support for Russian-speaking users can be found here.

Installation
- Delete your Fonts and Interface folders, make backup if needed.
- Download archive.
- Unzip it to your World of Wacrraft folder.
- Start WoW, log in, check that ALZAUI addon is enabled.
- In game use these slash commands: /chatmove, /alzaui all.
- You can now disable ALZAUI addon.

Updating to newer version
- Decide which mods you want to update by looking into changelog.
- If you want to keep custom settings for mods - keep old "settings.lua" file and copy it to folder of updated mod, replacing existing one.
- If any changes need to be done in settings.lua file - it will be noted specially.
- You can update addons with ingame settings without any specific actions - all settings are stored per-character and won't be lost after update.

Addons
Addons that underlined are class/role/whatever-specific and can be disabled if you don't need it.
- aMinimap
My small minimap addon. Features: square, clean minimap with customizable background, can be moved and scaled. Tracking icon is transparent and moved to bottomleft corner. Right click on map opens calendar. Backdrop can be classcolored. Ingame options added.
- aSettings
My mod that adds some tweaks to interface: changes UI scale, adds some slash commands, adds "one-button" mount function, enables autorepair, autosell grey items, autogreen on greens in groups, auto decline duels and accept invites, hiding errors from UIErrorsFrame. Ingame options added.
- aTooltip
Tooltip mod that based on sTooltip by Shantalya. Features: backgound changed, unit names colored by class or reaction, customizable target line added, statusbar moved. Unwanted text removed (we don't need unit class text if we see class color on names, do we?). Also itemlevels and item icons added to tooltips. Ingame options added.

FAQ
Q: Where is stance/form/aura bar?
A: rActionBarStyler addon => settings.lua => change "disable = 1" do "disable = 0" for ["Shapeshift"] bar.

Q: Oh wtf why can't I change *random option* in game?
A: This ui is configured mostly by editing lua code. If you are not okay with it - please use another compilation.

Q: How do I change *random option*?
A: If you want to change something - please read comments in addons .lua files first. If there is no option that you need - you can post a feature request here.

Q: Can you please tell me how to *do something*?
A: Every available option in every addon is nicely commented, feel free to read comments and you'll be surprised how easy it is. If you don't want or don't know how to do something - please read again red text above.

So, basically, you just need to know the position in the tracking list of the thing (or things) you want to track and then you add that to your tracking macro, and then keybind it to whatever key you want.

I do this on my lowbie "Loremaster Project" character to quickly changed between Find Minerals and Find Low Level Quests.

I have it assigned to the ` key.
Even though it's useful, I'd prefer changing the "middle mouse" button clicked on the minimap to say left or right mouse button instead. I keep changing tracking types a lot and that would be a lot of macros I dont have more hotkeys for :P

Yes.

From a post on the WoW forums:

Quote:
If youwant to track two things:

/run local t=1; _,_,a=GetTrackingInfo(t);if (a) then t=2 end; SetTracking(t)

where t=1 is the first thing in your tracking list and t=2 is the second thing in the list.

If you only want to track low lvl quests I guess you could use

/run local t=15; _,_,a=GetTrackingInfo(t);if (a) then t=15 end; SetTracking(t)

if 15 is the number of low level tracking on your char.
So, basically, you just need to know the position in the tracking list of the thing (or things) you want to track and then you add that to your tracking macro, and then keybind it to whatever key you want.

Hey Alza, I've seen your Aero addon in some of your youtube vids. How much memory does it use? The only thing I found that gets close to it, is VisualThemes which uses ~1mb memory.

This isnt correct, as middle mouse clicking on any part of the minimap opens up game menu options (lfg tool, character pane, etc). The correct way to change your tracking option it to hover over the very bottom left of the minimap, and your current tracking option shows up (mine is on mailbox atm, so the word Mailbox shows up). Now simply left click on your mouse to show the tracking list.
