It binds keys to buttons; what did you expect it to look like?
Its' G15 Binder
Its' G15 Binder is an AddOn designed to improve integration between the Logitech G15 Gaming Keyboard and WoW. It provides simple G-key binding: just point at a button in-game and hit the G key to bind it. You can also display which keyboard mode is active via a border around the active action buttons, or set the mode to control which action bar page is active.
Please note: this AddOn does not create or manage action bars or buttons. There are a plethora of other AddOns out there that do a far better job than I could ever hope to. This AddOn will work with your existing action button set up, be it the default Blizzard bars, or heavily customised Trinity bars. Heck, you could probably bind G18 to the 'Post Auction' button if you really felt like it...
If you want some buttons in the shape of your G keys, give G15 Buttons a try. Please note that I did not write G15 Buttons, nor have I used it; it was merely mentioned by a user.
Change Log - Its' G15 Binder
2.4.1
Updated TOC for 2.4. Yes, it took forever, but I didn't want to push an "upload count bump" release!
Added background blending options for mode borders. Try out Blizzard Low Health with ADD blending; is spiffiriffic!
Changed a few odd behaviours when the buttons you've bound to don't exist.
Moved source over to WoWI's SVN service.
2.3.1
Added "key overlays" which display the name of the G key bound to an action button inside the button.
Changed the binding mode buttons into a drop-down list, so that you can tell which mode is currently active.
Made icon a little more readable at small sizes, and reduced it to 32x32.
Optional Files - Its' G15 Binder
Sorry, there are currently no optional files available.
This mod isn't needed with Macaroon. Blizzard now allows you to assign a 'G' button directly in the Key Bindings interface, but it does the same thing we used to before the wonderful It's G15 Binder came along - i.e., it assigns 'G1' as 'shift-1'.Clearly, It's G15 is superior for that, still.
This is working for me with Macaroon, which is working great with Buttonfacade; it does generate errors (itsG15 not Macaroon), and I'm not sure if they pile up and add to my latency issues - but it is working with Macaroon, for me.
Using this addon is so much better than binding different keystrokes to the “G” keys which is what I am having to do at the moment to get my "G" keys to bind to the Macaroon buttons.
Undocumented changes in the source FTL. Good thing it's being worked on (trial & error always works for me :P) even when the servers keep crashing all the time, Nagrand-EU has a bad habit of kicking players from the World server.
Originally posted by Itsnoteasy Sadly, this is one of those addons that breaks every time a new major version comes out. :P
For 3.0, Blizzard completely replaced the functionality the binder depended on with something new and exciting.
Unfortunately, they haven't bothered to document it, so I have no idea how to use it.
I'm fixing it as fast as I can, but it's somewhat hampered by lacking documentation. Trust me, though, as the addon's primary user, I'm going to be complaining to the developer daily until it's fixed!
Sorry to hear it's such a pain, but glad to hear it's being worked on.
Originally posted by InvisiBill This doesn't seem to be working for me on the PTR at the moment. Trying to get all my addons working, so it's possible it's something else, but I've got a pretty minimal setup with Dominos right now.
Can anyone else verify that this is or isn't working on the Test server?
That's the problem with great addons - when they stop working for a bit, it screws up your whole WoW experience.

Fun comment : Older (1.0 series it seems) versions of the Profiler, while claim to be able to check for updates, don't actually succeed at finding updates .
Which made me feel like a complete idiot when I noticed that's why it wasn't working for me .
Nice stuff in all, and to continue my campaign to configure to my liking mwuahaha.
I am getting the same issue with trinity 2.0, the first use always gets tainted, then the next ones are fine. You dont happend to know if there is a fix like for bartender?
Originally posted by Itsnoteasy It's a bug in WoW itself? Thank god for that; I was slowly going insane trying to find it.
I'll have to see if I can rig up some sort of automatic mechanism for taking care of that now that I know what's wrong...
Dunno if this could work but you could try hooking up the actionbar buttons the G-buttons are bound and prime the cache when the frame is created (FYI: I've never actually used Lua, just PHP ).
Originally posted by aegnor Since the most recent WoW client patch I've been getting the following error:
"Bartender3 has been blocked from an action only available to the Blizzard UI. You can disable this addon and reload the UI."
This only happens if I use a g15binder-bound g-key to activate a bartender 3 button - if I click on the button, it works fine.
The particularly odd thing is that it only happens the first time I hit the g-key for any given button. If I just hit the "Ignore" button on the warning it doesn't show up again for that button and play session (does show up for other buttons, though).
This happens with only bartender3 and the g15 binder as the active mods, so it's not interference from a third mod.
I've had the exact same problem with Bartender4. After a bit of searching (I had this annoying bug pop up for about a month before it started to annoy too much) I found on the US WoW forums that this can be simply fixed with the following code:
This method prepares the "click cache" and sends the evil error to nil (a bit modifed from the original statement found here).
For those with Bartender4, the fix is to modify the line 26 in both \Interface\AddOns\Bartender4\Button.lua and \Interface\AddOns\Bartender4\buttonPrototypes\ActionButton.lua to
Code:
local button = setmetatable(CreateFrame("CheckButton", name.."Secure", parent, "SecureActionButtonTemplate"), Button_MT)
--Fix for Tainted execution path
GetClickFrame(name.."Secure")
