dRecMap

Version: r4

by: Dawn [More]

Features
* rectangle shape
* built in latency, fps and clock display (can be disabled in dRecMap\dRecMap.lua)
* calendar frame on middle click or /cl, /calendar
* tracking on right click
* hides unwanted minimap buttons
* LFD Tooltip will stay on the screen, no matter where you place the map
* mousewheel zoom
* optionally changes position of the Quest tracker (can be disabled)
* movable - Hold down Alt and left mouse button to move it around.

Edit: Found an error though... set my scale to 1.25 and now I have this happening when I try to make it flush with my screen edge: Edit2: Seems to happen at 1.00 scale too: Edit3: Disregard that, decided to read other comments. щ(ﾟДﾟщ) Edit4: Errr, another problem I think I'll be sticking with a square map until this gets a bit more mature.

Edit: r4 will have an option for this and uses the generic plain white texture. @Xhelius That's a general issue with WoW. You have to restart the client, if you add something that hasn't been there before while WoW is running. Changing or replacing something doesn't need a restart. __________________ Rock: "We're sub-standard DPS. Nerf Paper, Scissors are fine." Paper: "OMG, WTF, Scissors!"

Porsha A Black Drake Forum posts: 88 File comments: 119 Uploads: 0	Trying to make the info panel solid black background but having no luck... local backdropcolor = {0/255, 0/255, 0/255} -- backdrop color local brdcolor = {0/255, 0/255, 0/255} -- backdrop border color local infocolor = {0/255, 0/255, 0/255} -- info panel color Am I overlooking something? I see this line in the create frame FLMframeT:SetTexture(mediaFolder.."dO") but I dont have a file in the dMedia named "dO" ... thanks!

Xhelius An Aku'mai Servant Forum posts: 39 File comments: 11 Uploads: 0	Having a small issue.... I'm trying to change the font for the infobar....I don't like and can't read pixel fonts. So I've copied a font i'd like to use into the dMedia folder. Changed the line in lua to reflect the font i'd like to use that i copied over using the exact name of the font. If I set the lua to use any font other than the 2 that is original to the dmedia folder I get a lua error in line 172 for text not set. Additionally, can the scale be changed safely and can a background be added to the infobar? Thanks, I really like this addon ! EDIT It appears that you have to exit the game and log back in for the font changes to take affect. Reloading the UI doesn't work :P __________________ Don't you let regret take place of the dreams you have to chase... Last edited by Xhelius : 02-05-11 at 09:33 PM.

and how to get rectangle buff/debuffs?

Really like the map.

r3 will fix this.

I'm using SetSize(aurasize, aurasize*0.8) in my buff mod to achieve this. Note, this is no working code - just the basics.

Oh I almost forgot to point this out: but Group Calendar breaks when this addon is loaded. It cannot be loaded at all (The Calendar Window wont open at all)

Any error pop up? I don't use that addon myself. I'll look into it.

Just don't place it to close to the edge of the screen.

/cry lol..oh well its just about where i want it...maybe 2-5 pixels too low but i'll deal for now.

Not sure if this will help but This UI has a rectangle shape minimap as well and i think his first version of the UI he had the minimap up closer to the screen. I'm still new to .lua so not sure if there is a workaround in the coding that you could use. Just a thought to try and help you out.

Again ty for this. Definitely loving the look it gives my UI.
