Don't you hate it when you accidentally close the AH window by opening up another window?
Or maybe when you're using the bank or the mailbox, some malicious idiot opens a trade window in order to close the mail/bank windows?
Then Lexan will save your sanity!
Lexan does the following:
- Prevents other windows (e.g. social box, talents, char info) from closing the Auction House window. You can do other stuff while you buy/sell!
- Blocks trade requests when you're at the mailbox or bank, thus preventing them from closing your windows
- Prevents the world map from closing all your windows

AH window protector based on code from Auctioneer
Special thanks to all the people in #Wowace and some people on Hellscream EU who helped test the trade blocker.

any updates on this wonderfull mod cant live with out i
btw the block trade its not lexan doing it try look in blizz ui settings they have added a block trade function in there under interface found out about it from a guildie never noticed my self so i tryed to disable lexan and event ctmods ctmail thing still had the block trade until osme one told med to look in there
yep.. when you enable the block trades option in lex. it checks the "block trades" in the interface options menu. it stays that way. you will have to clear the checkbox on your own.
I'm having a problem and I think it's lexan. I'm using several Ace based addons, but as far as i know none of them is responsible
no one can trade with me, ever, at all.
i can trade with them
if someoen tries to trade with me, i get a message "so-n-so has requested a trade with you, and you have declined"
my current belief is that it's a bug/problem with lexans function to block trades while at the mailbox. perhaps due to another addon or somethign it thinks I'm always at the mailbox, i'm not sure,
I would like to try & work with you to figure this out.
Originally posted by Thrae After trial-and-error disabling and re-enabling mods one-by-one, I have found Lexan disables your ability to click on NPCs, turn the camera, etc. (essentially use the mouse buttons) if you use MetaMap and even if you enable "MapActionMode".

Originally posted by Neronix The Esc thing is a welcome side effect of removing the frame from the UIPanels system, which is how the mod works.
You are the only one so far to complain about it so it won't be changed
Alternatively, just walk away from the auctioneer or click the X
While not a major annoyance, I would agree on the ESC key exiting the AH frame, if thats at all possible. Maybe even make it an option? I often find myself pressing ESC out of habit of closing the AH window and it not working, so I end up (as you suggest) just running off.
Thanks though for a great mod! It was far more annoying to hit your character pane and have the AH close
