Frees up action buttons by putting 24 totem spells in a moveable box with 4 rows of up to 6 individually moveable buttons. Totems cast are the highest level in your spell book. Configure the buttons however you want using the "/tbox config" command. The totem box will only show for Shamans.
You can temporarily move individual buttons to anyplace on the screen but they will be back in the box when you log out and back in. Just SHIFT/LEFT CLICK to drag them.
Totem spells you haven't learned yet will appear faded out, if added to the configuration ahead of time.
To move the box SHIFT/LEFT CLICK on the upper left corner and drag. To resize the box type "/tbox scale" and a moveable slider frame will appear.
Commands:
/tbox - list of commands.
/tbox config - brings up the configuration panel.
/tbox scale - brings up a slider to adjust the size of the totem box.
/tbox hide - hides the totem box.
/tbox show - shows the totem box.
/tbox tips - show simple tooltips.
/tbox notips - turn off simple tooltips.
Holding the shift key down will show full tooltips when moving the cursor over the buttons.
Credit to Mookhow for the concept.... and a few lines of copied code. The ReadMe file has a copy of all this information.
To reconfigure the TotemBox totem spells layout: Enter "/tbox config"
The 24 slots in the configuration panel represent the buttons in this manner:
From the top down;
Slots 1 - 6 represent the top row of buttons, from left to right.
Slots 7 - 12 the second row, left to right.
Slots 13 - 18 the third row, left to right.
Slots 19 - 24 the fourth row, left to right.
For example if you want Searing Totem in the 3rd row, 2nd button from the left, you would type Searing Totem in the 14th slot from the top down. If you want no button in the totem box at that position then blank out the slot.
***NOTE***:If you spell the totem name wrong or spell the name without the proper upper and lower case letters then the totem box button will not appear.

Originally posted by maspro Omen3 Threatmeter has a feature that hides the threatwindow when you are out of combat and shows the threatwindow when you go into combat. If Omen3 can do that, then Totembox migth be able to do that too? Or am I missing something?
The difference is that TotemBox has action buttons which can't be changed during combat. Omen is display only. But thanks for the suggestion.
Originally posted by Jumpee Hi happykyd, Blizzard prevents addon frames from being hidden/shown while in combat. I can't do anything about that. The only suggestion I can make is to use the scale command to make the totem box as small as possible while cruising around so it will be there should you suddenly find yourself in combat. Thanks for the feedback.

Originally posted by happykyd hi, happy user of this add-on. dont know if the previous post relates to me, but i hav set this up so i can hide tb while cruising around and show before going into combat, however, if i get ambushed unexpectantly, the toggle i hav wont bring tb up in combat, so thought i might be useful when you next update if feasible to have it show when you go into combat.

A guildie of mine recently told me about this addon. He asked me to make a macro that'll toggle the TotemBox window, i.e. show it when it's hidden/hide it when it's shown. Although such a macro is simple and can be made in less than thirty seconds, it would be nice if there was a /tbox toggle command or something similar.
Hi Quezacolt, the /tbox show and /tbox hide commands are available. I guess I could add a /tbox toggle command but it might be a while before I get around to it.
In the meantime if you create this macro it should toggle the box.
Code:
/script local f=getglobal("TotemBox");if f:IsVisible() then f:Hide();else f:Show();end

I just downloaded this addon and test it and it looks nice, only thing i feel its missing and would be a great addition is a keybinding option, like totemtimers but it automatically binds them with numbers.
Any chance to add a keybinding option but with the possibility to bind them manually?
Maybe that option exists already and i didnt realize how to do it heheh if so someone enlighten me please ^^;
Thanks in advance.
Kalvin thanks for the feedback. I don't have any plans to add keybinding at this time.

That's great news
Will it work with patch 3.0.2 coming out Tuesday? Because I don't think I'll play my shammy without it.
Do you have any plans for a WotLK upgrade? I copied my Shammy over there and tried playing it last night and it just wasn't as enjoyable as when I had TotemBox running.
if so someone enlighten me please ^^;
Great mod
