Description
It enables you to change the amount of an specific item you want to move around with your MouseWheel while already having it picked up.
Reason for this AddOn
I was sick of always shift-Clicking around in my inventory to split items for friends/mates. So I just builded this tiny AddOn to make it possible to split your already picked up item on-the-fly
How to use
Well it's kinda simple - you pick up your item(simple left click) (ofc it needs to be stackable) and there will be a number shown above the texture of your Item (Cursor). Now with your Mousewheel you can increase(cannot be extend the amount stacked in this bagSlot) by wheeling up, or decrease (cannot reach zero) by wheeling down.
Note: Full amount available in this bag-slot isn't shown as number
How to use: VendorPlugin
If you click on a item the vendor holds - there now will be a number above your cursor too. (r12)
This number indicates the amount you want to buy of THAT kind of item.
The number can be increased/decreased the same way as in bags/banks - and has a "0" option to prevent buying
It simply buys the Item if you have ie 5 selected and click somewhere (delete it from cursor - so be careful)
Step-Modificators
Shift: 5 steps
Ctrl: 10 steps
Alt: 20 steps
They are combinable (Shift+Ctrl+Alt resulting in 45 steps)
Known Issues
Amount of Split isn't following the Cursor (just if changing)
Hope you enjoy it
Works with:
Bags,Bank,GuildBanks,Vendors
---------------------
Does not work with:
Mail
added left-shift,left-strg,left-alt modifications to change the steps between each mousewheel roll
shift: +/-5
strg: +/-10
alt: +/-20
Note: they are additive (holding shift+strg -> +/-15)
Does not work with Vendor
r14
fixed an error with placing items on the bank
r13
it's now again possible to split items while talking to a merchant
r12
vendor feature seems to work so far - but be careful to use it
As hint how it works:
0 = Don't buy
>0= Buy this many
fixed a modulo based error in standard(bags,banks) split
r11
removed print(arg1,arg2)
r10
fixed an issue with de-/equipping items - if equipping items he tried to catch ITEM_LOCK_CHANGED had argument-structure(InventorySlot,nil)
full amount of that bag-slot is now shown without any number
if just pick 1 item - it is now shown
if decreasing from 1 you will be at max (modulo)
fixed AddOn name in toc
r7
now supports GuildBanks ... but i don't like the solution
Originally posted by Contiki Just wanted to report back. I've been testing the increments feature and it works like a charm. Nice work!
Thx for the feedback ^^
Just a information for users: (of any mods from me)
- currently I'm "busy" watching SC2 replays *cough* - so I won't add any more features to any of my mods - just bug fixes
I've been testing the add-on for a few days and I'm lovin' it! Neat idea implemented in an easy-to-use way.
One thing I'm missing is a feature to increase the scrolling step size. For example picking up 45 items off of a 100-stack is still better done with the regular interface. Do you think it'd be a viable addition for SplitItems to add a modifer key like Alt? If players scroll while the modifier key is pressed, the stack size will jump in larger steps. For example 5-steps oder 10-steps.
Maybe that'd be a nice feature for future versions.
yup that might come soon - already got in mind today on walk :P that ie. 10%(i know it might sound crazy) steps would be nice
so item picked up - say 1000 (arrows) - and simply can shift-scroll -> increasing/decreasing amount by 100, for 20stacks - 2 per shift-scroll
might let the addon use all 3 modifiers
shift: +/-10%
ctrl: +/-25%
alt: +/-50%
no-mod: +/-1
btw. I'm glad ppl like it :P wondered that there weren't anything like that before

I love it when developers come up with simple little addons like these; it's dead-simple and lightweight, but does the job extremely well. Using the scroll wheel to "cycle" through the number of items you want to select from the stack is really intuitive as well. Great job with this. Reminds me of Tekkub's work!

Originally posted by Manaman I am not at home at the moment, so can't tell you the exact mod, but it is the Open All option with the mail mod. It does it during restack option for arkinventory as well. It seems to be whenever a mod attempts picking up a stack of anything to move it.
By 'bug out' I mean that the stack count will show, and some times it won't clear itself from the screen in the location it showed. If no other actions lead to its display/clear, it will remain on the screen until such time, or a reload of the UI.
ah ok - that is *fixed* in newer revision as full amounts are now hidden and 1 is shown
Might gonna add a shift-modification (so if shift is holded on dropping - you still have the item @the cursor)
also i might add a timer which a) let the font follow the cursor, and b) if Cursor has no item for >2s hide font

Take all? Batch send?
And do you mean by 'bug out' that the Stack-counts are shown shortly?

edit: A bug: It would appear that the total stack count is getting hidden rather than 1.
intended - changed it back in r7 or r8 dunno - should be in changelogs - maybe i forgot to change it in desc
but generally it was necessary to fix a bug - and i think it's more "natural" for older WoW-players if you had picked up lately you've never seen a number - so i thought - might not change that behaviour ^^

Changelog:
r10 full amount of that bag-slot is now shown without any number
