PortalBox is a simple addon that gathers all of your portal and teleport spells into a single aesthetically-pleasing window and tracks your Runes of Teleportation and Runes of Portals. Its main window can be invoked by the following commands:
/port
/portalbox
Clicking on its minimap icon
To avoid confusion with the 0.5 fan update of PortalBox, this official update will use the version of 0.6.
New in 0.6:
• Dalaran support! Magi from both the Horde and Alliance can now teleport to Dalaran.
• Dimming of unlearned portals. When cursor is moved over an unlearned portal or teleport, the minimum trainable level of that spell is given.
• New options panel under Main Menu --> Interface --> AddOns --> PortalBox that offer the two following options:
-- Hide/show minimap icon
-- Close PortalBox window after casting a teleport or portal
• Slight aesthetic changes.
Fixed in 0.6:
• Having the PortalBox main window open will no longer intercept keystrokes.
• First-time users of PortalBox should no longer be presented with a LUA error upon login.
• TOC updated to 30000.
Change Log - PortalBox
0.6 - Added Dalaran support, minimap button hiding, window closure upon casting, and untrained portal dimming. Fixed an error that occurs upon first run of addon. Also fixed bug of eating keystrokes while window was open and made a couple of aesthetic changes. Version number 0.6 used to avoid any possible confusion caused by the 0.5 fan update
0.2 - Added support for Horde mages, changed close button aesthetics
0.1 - Initial Public Release
Optional Files - PortalBox
Sorry, there are currently no optional files available.
Just so you guys know, an official update IS coming (it's mostly finished already, in fact). Just wait a little longer, I want to see if I can get an extra feature packed into this release (untrained portal/teleport dimming).
Love the mod very helpful.. Had a few suggestions to make it easier.
1. Make the screen a lot smaller. No reason to be so big and take up the full screen.
2. When you click a portal or teleport the window should close.
3. When you are not on a mage, the icon should not show up. With so many Ui's another button can be a pain.
4. Make the button moveable to where I can place it on any part of my screen, not just around the map. Maybe allow us to pick either a map icon or a button I can add to my bar to allow me to use this UI.
Does this work with WOTLK as far as Dalaran? I have not gotten Dalaran yet, but I am wondering if it shows up once I do..
While I fail to see how it's "fugly", there is currently no way to disable the minimap icon. This feature should appear in version 0.3, however, if everything goes as planned.
The minimap button doesn't look great with pMinimap as it sticks out is what I'm saying, it's not the button itself. And thanks
Also, what about moving the portal box and locking it into a different position? It currently covers some AddOns and half overlap it making the buttons disappear.
Originally posted by CalciumIRL Ok so I've started using this but I use pMinimap and the minimap button looks fugly. Is there anyway I can remove it?
Thanks
