How ColorBlind enchances the UI

Color Blind 4.0

Color Blind 4.0 is a near complete rewrite of the previous Color Blind version posted here. It has been updated for 2.3 and all features are working. Some of the features are implemented a bit differently than in the screen shot, will update the screenshot when time allows.

Auction House Tooltips and Item Comparison Tooltips and not working 100% though. Again, I will figure those out when I get more time =)

I made this suggestion to Blizzard. I highly suggest anyone who would like to see changes like this post in the thread I linked below and urge Blizzard to make the changes =)

Opinions from actual color blind wow players may carry more weight

I would like however to thank both of you for maintaining this add-on and to raise awareness in the game designers community that some people do not see colors the way others do. Let's hope it is going to have a ripple effect and that we will see more games with a "color blind" option. Thanks !!!

Due to this, I will no longer be maintaining this addon. However, since it is not originally my addon and if someone wishes to continue it for whatever reason, please feel free to do so

Well, I've been unofficially fixing the bugs, since I use the product too, but since I don't have a Rogue, I'll plan on using the new Blizzard UI colorblind functionality myself, vs. keeping this bug free. No need to duplicate effort.

I'll return to this post and edit it as I discover more, instead of making new posts (unless this gets really buried down in the topic list).

neeow, I need you to test the potential fix for this, please read below...

Well, here's the line of code in CB that the error is complaining about...

Code:

GameTooltip:SetScript("OnTooltipSetItem", function(self) onTooltipSetItemScript() setTooltipItemColor(self) end)

I did a search on the error message, and found http://fisheye.norganna.org/browse/~...ibExtraTip.lua ...

Code:

-- Function that gets run when an item is set on a registered tooltip.
local function OnTooltipSetItem(tooltip)
	local self = lib
	local reg = self.tooltipRegistry[tooltip]
	assert(reg, "Unknown tooltip passed to LibExtraTip:OnTooltipSetItem()")

Seems there is a check by auctioneer to see if the tooltip is 'registered' or not.

I've made a post on the official forums for Auctioneer: http://forums.norganna.org/discussio...ooltipsetitem/. Hopefully we'll get some kind of answer back from their devs on why they check for registered tooltips.

Got an answer back by a developer...

Assuming onTooltipSetItemScript is your reference to the previous hook in the chain, you have to pass the self parameter to it.

neeow, could you change line 400 of code inside of ColorBlind4.lua...

Code:

GameTooltip:SetScript("OnTooltipSetItem", function(self) onTooltipSetItemScript() setTooltipItemColor(self) end)

to this...

Code:

GameTooltip:SetScript("OnTooltipSetItem", function(self) onTooltipSetItemScript(self) setTooltipItemColor(self) end)

and line 407 from this...

Code:

GameTooltip:SetScript("OnTooltipSetItem", function(self) onTooltipSetItemScript() end)

to this...

Code:

GameTooltip:SetScript("OnTooltipSetItem", function(self) onTooltipSetItemScript(self) end)

... adding the text 'self' inside of the 'onTooltipSetItemScript()' text (between the parens), and let me know if it fixes your problem?

After the changes, lines 397 through 414 should look like this...

Code:

local function setGameTooltipScript(set)

	if (set) then
		GameTooltip:SetScript("OnTooltipSetItem", function(self) onTooltipSetItemScript(self) setTooltipItemColor(self) end)
		for i=1,7 do
			ChatFrame_AddMessageEventFilter("OnHyperlinkClick", function(self) onChatHyperlinkClick() setTooltipItemColor(ItemRefTooltip) end)
			-- Below no longer works, need to do above!  /Cosmic Cleric
			-- getglobal("ChatFrame"..i):SetScript("OnHyperlinkClick", function(self) onChatHyperlinkClick() setTooltipItemColor(ItemRefTooltip) end)
		end
	else
		GameTooltip:SetScript("OnTooltipSetItem", function(self) onTooltipSetItemScript(self) end)
		for i=1,7 do
			ChatFrame_AddMessageEventFilter("OnHyperlinkClick", function(self) onChatHyperlinkClick() end)
			-- Below no longer works, need to do above!  /Cosmic Cleric
			-- getglobal("ChatFrame"..i):SetScript("OnHyperlinkClick", function(self) onChatHyperlinkClick() end)
		end
	end
end

I've made the changes on my end to a local copy, but I don't see any new errors/problems. But since I don't use Auctioneer, I require your testing on this please, before I upload the new fixed version. Thanks.

Here is the log: my guess is that the error occurs in CB on or around line 400, you can easily forget the bag slot reference as the error occurs also when pointing to a non-bag item.

I don't use Auctioneer, so a fix from me won't be incoming without the error log. And even then, as time permits. I'll keep an eye out for your posting of the error log.

De-activating CB fixes the issue.

For what its worth, I'm going to bet that de-activating Auctioneer also fixes the issue.

If you find yourself losing the cursor on the screen, try this add-on, _Cursor http://sites.google.com/site/wowsaiket/Add-Ons/Cursor There's screenpics at that page that shows what it does, which is basically adds trailing graphics to the mouse pointer.

Well, that's up to Maul. He's been AWOL for a month now. I actually went to the other add-ons he codes/supports, and they are complaining about him not being around to fix the bugs in those add-ons. I hope he's ok.

When I've done patches in the past, he eventually rolls them into a release, so, as long as he's still alive and supporting this, he'll probably include my changes into a new release.

If you are running Color Blind 4 patch for the first time...

I'VE UPLOADED A NEW VERSION, "Manual2", THAT INCLUDES THE FIX FOR THIS PROBLEM. IT IS LOCATED HERE: http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/info12072.html

Ok, by deleting my old C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\WTF\Account\<ACCT NAME>\SavedVariables\colorblind4.lua file and letting the add-on create a new one, the problem/bug shows up.

By default, Color Blind 4 doesn't put any values into its default settings for the add-on. Here's an example of what should be inside of this file...

Code:

ColorBlind4SavedState = {
	["buttonLoc"] = {
		99.51726822932213, -- [1]
		9.359220163257518, -- [2]
	},
	["Version"] = "4.0",
	["CheckOptions"] = {
		[8] = 1,
		[4] = 1,
	},
}

... and here's what it looks like when Color Blind 4 creates a new one on its own...

Code:

ColorBlind4SavedState = nil

I've refactored the code to properly create default values if the add-on is being used for the first time.
