Macaroon: AutoHide - Show on ModKey

Version: 40101

by: Dwargh [More]

This is a package with tampered files for Macaroon.
Updated for Macaroon v:40000.1.11
No further updates will be made

I made this change to how AutoHide works on bars with alt/ctrl/shift states.
So instead of needing MouseOver to show, the bar with either modkey-state
can be set by option to show on ModKey press.

You can do it by the GUI or by command.

Install by replacing your old files of the same name.(backup em for your own safety!)

This was a feature request by potatoes from the comments section for Macaroon main addon.

Gimme Your thoughts.

Ideas:
I thought of making it show on reaction and combat as well.
That way one could have something in the normal state of such a bar and have it to autohide in normal state but always show when reaction is true.

Updated for Macaroon version 40000.1.11
No new stuff added except marking of what code I've added to the files.
So that if one wants to update it for coming versions of Macaroon they can.

Nope, It has not. It was supposed to be after Maul changed the way alpha and autohide functions worked. As Maul has gone silent for a long while like last year, hope he's OK, I just had the thought to perhaps update it sgain.
I am still using the code myself so I basicaly need to write the code anyways, and as such I do have it at the ready.
Even though You can now basically just copy paste the parts of code yourselves fom an old version.

I forgot to add the actual table at the end. replace the line with the following and it should sort itself out Code: local autoHideIndex, alphaupIndex, autoHide_ModKeyIndex, anchorIndex, dockIndex = {}, {}, {}, {}, {}

Re: Not sure if from regular Mac or from adding Autohide

thanks, I thought I always got this error from original Macaroon but might be my alteration to it. Didn't even think of it. I'll check it out but wont update this one no more. I'll wait till Maul gets the reconfiguration for autohide and alpha change done and then have it implemented in the original.

It records all or part of your screen and audio from a mic. It's free, easy to use and provides free hosting of the video (can also send to YouTube or save to a file). Had to use it for a class assignment this past week and it rocks. [quote]Originally posted by Dwargh [b][color="RoyalBlue"]Sorry, I don't have any recording addon to make a video.

Sorry, I don't have any recording addon to make a video.
But to take advantage of this alternation of Macaroons auto hide function.
You just have your bar, set it to autohide and set it to one or more of the mod key preset states in the list of bar editor. Then you need to exit bar editor and go back to it to be able to check the ":ModKey" check box which will make the bar show when you press your mod key.

to make a macaroon button unhide a hidden bar I think you can misuse the mac command /mac hidden
with using the number of the bar you want to unhide after the command.
I know I did try that way back when.. but I'm not completely sure I got it to work or not as it was for another user and not myself.

Just reinstalled macaroon and all extras and this, and I'm noticing some glitches with this modification. I'll look into it asap.

Actually I think I was satisfied with the normal state showing on any modkey pressed. So no glitches

But if requested I'll change it so mouseover is needed for the normal state. Shouldn't be too hard.

you have to first set your bar to Autohide and at least one of the modkey-states. select dismiss and then get the menu up again to check the new box.

I'll get around to fix that sometime in the future.

Oh yeah, if you've used my Horizontal displacement fix it is now updated to work with this one.
