Who Framed Watcher Wabbit?

This addon will add many improvements to the new quest tracker frame. The slash command is /wfww. You may also alt-click the tracker's collapse button to access the options.

Features:

allows the quest tracker to be moved wherever you please
quest tracker will collapse in whichever direction it's anchored to (ex. collapse down)
quest tracker remembers collapsed state
adjust the scale of the quest tracker
adjust the font, font size, font flag (outline, etc.), or remove shadow
adjust the spacing between lines
give the quest tracker a background and/or border
optional support for rActionButtonStyler to skin quest item buttons
adds a tooltip for quests to display their objective text
allows you to minimize/maximize (toggle) the tracker via keybind
shortcuts added to the collapse button (toggle Quest Log, Achievement Frame, addon's options)
global or character specific profiles

History:
With the new quest tracker losing its ability to be moved freely, I set about adding support for it back into my minimap addon, PocketPlot. But it just wasn't as simple anymore with the way it was coded. So, I set out to create a standalone addon (or at least a module for PocketPlot). Originally named Movable WatchFrame, I started adding other features to the addon. Then I had to change its name, because it did much more than just moved the tracker. Thanks to Recompense for suggesting "Who Framed Watcher Wabbit?"

Looking for more?
These are other addons to enhance your questing experience which are tried and tested with WFWW. If you know of any more, let me know via PM and I can add them to this list.

Quelevel: Adds quest levels to the tracker, quest log, and gossip frames
Jobs'a'goodn: Plays sounds upon completion of quests and their objectives
QuestRouterLite: Adds the game's quest POIs to the minimap and works with TomTom to create waypoints for them automagically
TomTom: Allows you to set waypoints to destinations including a new feature to automatically show the way for quests
LightHeaded: Shows comments from the Wowhead website's quest database in a window attached to your quest log frame.

Known Issue:
If you alter the font size too much, you may have to reload your UI in order to have the quest tracker redrawn. Some text may also overlap if it flows onto a second line. In this case, consider adjusting the whole frame's scale instead.

Change Log - Who Framed Watcher Wabbit?

v.1.5
- added a keybind to toggle (min/max) the quest tracker. You can set it in the WFWW options

v.1.4
- support for wide quest tracker feature for 3.3.3
- support for rActionButtonStyler skins (well, sorta - it just looks to see if it's installed, and then uses the skin texture/color)
- new options to change line spacing (thanks, seebs)
- random bug fixes and code cleanup for 3.3.3 and above changes

v.1.3.1
- fixed bug when mousing over achievements. Now you'll see the tooltip for the achievement instead!

v.1.3
- added tooltip for quests in the tracker, displaying their objective text
- added support for nUI (to keep it from hogging the watch frame) - thanks, Xrystal! (I did not add nUI to the OptionalDeps line in the .toc, figuring that since WFWW starts with a W, it would load close to the end. PLEASE let me know if I need to fix anything!)
- added option to remove the font shadow
- organized options a bit better

v.1.2
- added option to hide the watch frame when no quests or achievements are being tracked

v. 1.1.1
- fixed bug where your set height would not be reapplied when re-expanding the tracker

v. 1.1
- watch frame now remembers if it was collapsed before (saved per character)

v. 1.0
- initial release

I have seen that error (or similar) in the past (starting with the WotLK beta), and I've seen it thrown around the forums plenty of times. I'm not sure what causes it. __________________ "You'd be surprised how many people violate this simple principle every day of their lives and try to fit square pegs into round holes, ignoring the clear reality that Things Are As They Are." -Benjamin Hoff, The Tao of Pooh

If you are willing to sacrifice some features, you could use Scrolling Watch Frame. A scroll bar is on my mental list of possible features, but I admit that its priority went lower with the addition of filtering to the quest tracker with 3.3.3...

I have QRL set up to show only the next quest in the tracker log. I'm in Booty Bay and just turned in a quest to Sea Wolf Mackinley and then immediately accepted the quest "Cracking Maury's Foot". The watch frame updated to show the new quest - but there's a blue patch in the watch frame now. I know what it is - it's the colored area that Bliz's new map displays to show the location of a quest target. But I'm not sure why it's showing up in the watch frame. I did a couple of quests prior to this one, and the location map didn't show up like this. So like I said, I'm not sure where this coming from.

Here's a screenshot showing the tracker and what I'm on about:

cheers!

Yeah, I doubt that WFWW is causing that.... Is the blue blob still there after reloading the UI/relogging? If so, does it go away if you disable QRL?

I'm not going to be fiddling around with the text more than I already am. I may as well write a total quest tracker replacement instead of an enhancement.

Having done one, once, let me be the first to congratulate you on stepping back from that yawning abyss.

I dunno, maybe they made the API suck less since then, but I sorta doubt it.

Toran A Warpwood Thunder Caller Forum posts: 96 File comments: 349 Uploads: 0	Hey Seerah. Thanks for adding the button skinning. I don't use ractionbuttonstyler, but i'm sure many do. To make this work for me I took out the line that checks for if ractionbuttonstyler is loaded and redirected the textures to use my border textures. Not sure if that breaks the integration with ractionbuttonstyler, but it worked well. Alternate is maybe adding Buttonfacade support also? If that is too much work / bloat, I understand. FWIW, my adjusted skin code looks like this (with modified vertex color to darken the border): Code: local function SkinButtons() local colorR,colorG,colorB = ActionButton1NormalTexture:GetVertexColor() for i = nextbutton, 15 do itembtn = _G["WatchFrameItem"..i] if itembtn then itembtn:SetHighlightTexture(hover) itembtn:SetPushedTexture(pushed) border = _G[itembtn:GetName().."NormalTexture"] border:SetAllPoints() border:SetTexture(skin) border:SetVertexColor(.4, .4, .4) else nextbutton = i break end end end __________________ Wacraftic Blog & UI warcraftic.com Twitter: @warcraftic Last edited by Toran : 03-28-2010 at 05:30 PM.

On a totally different tangent, I noticed that one of your screen shots has little POI buttons next to the quest in the tracker. I ran a compilation before that had this, and clicking the button opened up the world map to that POI. Is it the same there?

I haven't found this in the default UI anywhere, and was wondering what you're using to accomplish that.

Thanks! Great little addon. :>

I replied to your bug report requesting further information.

Also, the POI buttons next to the quests in the quest tracker is default UI. Ensure that you have the map set to display the quest tracking stuff. I don't remember off the top of my head if there's another option anywhere that would do this in Interface Options.
