This might be something you can try if you're still looking for ideas for skinning, it's fairly simple.

Replace TOTEM_BORDER and (0, 0.6, 0.6) with texture/colour of choice. I haven't yet been able to find out how to change the texcoord of the icons though, or how to hide the default blizz border - so the texture will need to be large enough to cover that up.

To clarify, I have been able to fix the reset on relog glitch by changing:

;

into this:

shiin had the right idea but some users may have been confused by the way you said it, hope this clears things up

Hi guys,

I really like your addon, appreciate your input =) thanks a lot, but I have got the same problem - the totembar resets each time after logout, so we had to do some changes with lua - please have a look - it has helped me and maybe will help you to change the luas...

aTotemBar:RegisterEvent("ADDON_LOADED")
aTotemBar:RegisterEvent("PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD")
aTotemBar:RegisterEvent("PLAYER_TOTEM_UPDATE")

aTotemBar:SetScript("OnEvent", function(self,event,...)
if ( event == "ADDON_LOADED" ) then
aTotemBar_LoadVariables();

The bits where you see ("ADDON_LOADED") were changed from ("VARIABLES_LOADED")

Hope it helps

Hugs and kisses from sunny Moscow

P.S. =) Taken from the http://www.wowwiki.com/Events/V "ADDON_LOADED"

Fired in response to the CVars, Keybindings and other associated "Blizzard" variables being loaded. Since key bindings and macros in particular may be stored on the server they event may be delayed a bit beyond the original loading sequence.

Previously (prior to 3.0.1) the VARIABLES_LOADED event was part of the loading sequence. Although it still occurs within the same general timeframe as the other events, it no longer has a guaranteed order that can be relied on. This may be problematic to addons that relied on the order of VARIABLES_LOADED, specifically that it would fire before PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD.

Addons should not use this event to check if their addon's saved variables have loaded. They can use ADDON_LOADED (testing for arg1 being the name of the addon) or another appropriate event to initialize, ensuring that the addon works when loaded on demand.

I'm having the same issue as well. Every re-log or re-load it resets to the middle.

I had an issue with the current version of aTotemBar resetting its x coordinate after each logout. I solved the problem by clearing all anchors to aTotemBar (aTotemBar:ClearAllPoints( ); ) before setting its position in aTotemBar_LoadVariables.

Reason: At creation time a CENTER anchor is set for aTotemBar. Later when the variables are loaded and the actual position is set, usually another anchor is used. Anchors are not exclusive, a frame can have multiple anchors and WoW tries to put all of them into effect as good as possible.

Does this AddOn support ButtonFacade? If not, could it?

I'm using Macaroon! -- didn't think to check whether that affected it, but I bet it does, as I think it hides the default Blizzard totem bar. D'oh! Shoulda thought of that. I might have another look at it there.

And you're right, the buttons should be parented to the slots. My bad.

yeh im aware, was just thinking if someone tried to reposition it and being too hasty with the /reloadui before locking it again..

Ah-hah! Missing setparents for the action buttons.

Here's my loop to initialize all four slot buttons and all 12 action buttons:

Note that I still haven't got arrows working, but now at least I can see the totems.

ETA: Oh, this is weird. Relogged and it only showed the third and forth totems. No idea why. I've gone back to the February version for now.

First thing figured out: You are missing a SetParent(aTotemBar) for MultiCastRecallSpellButton. Adding that makes me get all six buttons (the totem-set-picker and the four totems).

BTW, this is probably nothing, but... The totem-set-picker button is a border width or so higher than the others.

Yup, the April 10th download. I get a (working) button for Call of the Elements, and next to it are green, red, teal, and purple totem icons with no specific totems in them. There is no totemic recall button. The five buttons I do have get arrows above them on mouseover, but clicking the arrows does nothing. If I back out to an older version (from more than a week ago, don't remember how far back), it all works.

/atbar hide toggles this bar, and /atbar lock lets me move it around.

Removing the savedvariables file moves it to the middle of the screen but changes nothing else (which is what I'd expect).

I have a spare half-hour, I'ma debug this a bit.

i forgot to say, this is best totem addon there is

edit: im usuing; nMainbar if that matters, usuing the previous version of atotembar (1.0) fixes the errors
