WDN Mobile Minimap
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This page is meant to be an archive only. I have since suspended development on it as there is another AddOn out there that does everything this one does, as well as most of the things I had planned to implement at a later date.
For details about this other AddOn feel free to visit:
http://www.wowace.com/wiki/SimpleMinimap
The download for this addon doesn't seem to be obvious on that page, so I am providing a direct download link to the always-latest-version here:

I did not develop nor have a part in the development of SimpleMinimap. I simply use it now in place of my own minimap as it has fullfilled my needs perfectly.
This addon is more or less being removed in favor of SimpleMinimap. It is what I use now, and I didn't think it made sense to keep updating this when SimpleMinimap does the same thing and then some.
Originally posted by Geboran Trying out your map addon, and I ran into a small issue: my quest tracker is now in the upper right corner of the screen. Is there any way to relocate this as well with this addon, or do I need a different one?
I don't modify the quest tracker in any way whatsoever. You will need another addon to do this. I left it located at the default location so that it wouldn't interfere with other addons that modify the quest tracker. By default it is attached to the default minimap, which still exists in the upper right corner with this addon. The only thing I do is move the actual minimap art and functions to a custom minimap which is draggable. That way anything that is normally attached to the default minimap will stay where it should be.

Originally posted by Karthon Great mod! I am having only one problem with it though. Every time I enter a instance or even a different city, the map resets to the top middle of my screen for some reason. Any ideas on what could be up?
I have updated the addon. Please try the new version as it SHOULD fix your problem. I think it was an issue with another addon ro some other code trying to move the minimap. Due to my changing what frame is actually being moved no other addon should try to move this minimap ever again. Please let me know if it still does.

This should actually be integrated as of this version. Default buttons will be draggable just like those nifty addon buttons you see around. I did NOT go as far as to allow you to drag them away from the minimap though. At least this way you can move them around the ring without having another addon do it for you.

I am working on a feature in which you will be able to "SHIFT-CLICK" your minimap and have it print text into your chat edit box (if it is visible) that will look something like this:
"Location: Minor Area, Major Area (x,y)"
Part of this is already in the current version but unfortunately I didn't finish it before I uploaded. For now if you Shift-Click it will print "Location: *Feature Coming Soon*"
I also still need to make the Battlefield button draggable. I didn't have time to hit a Battlefield when I was testing so I left it disabled for now rather than risk potential bugs. I will re-enable it after this weekend once I feel I have adequately tested it.

Originally posted by Moosetrax This looks great! <downloads & installs>
I checked the release forums but did not find this mod so I'll ask here.
Any chance of adding coordinates?
open wdn.minimap.lua and find line 21. Remove the text that says 'MinimapCluster:SetClampedToScreen(true);' and then save the file. You should now be able to move the minimap offscreen.
can you tell me how i can change the setting to allow it to go off screen? why, you ask? because my UI style has some window elements partially off the screen.
also, is there anyway to move around the default icons on the map?
ex: the day or night icon, the tracking icon, the mail icon, etc.
thank you for your time... btw, great, simple, effective mod! A++
