Addon to change new default bag behavior

So blizzard made a change in the latest patch that causes all of your bags to automatically open whenever you visit a vendor, your bank, or the mailbox, instead of the previous behavior that only caused this to happen with your base backpack. This does not appear to be a bug, but rather an intentional change. I hate this change. With the large bags I have, they overlay vendor and mailbox screens, making this very, very annoying. I am wondering if an addon exists that will allow me to change this default behavior to either back to the way it was (backpack only) or to eliminate the bags auto opening entirely. Any help anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Code:

function OpenAllBags() end

Put this in any .lua file in any addon.

that's a nice and simple solution p3lim posted (without the typo) :)

.. as for the previous behavior (backpack only), I would use this code .. although I have little experience with "hooking"

Code:

local oldOpenAllBags = OpenAllBags



function OpenAllBags(frame)

        OpenBackpack()

        oldOpenAllBags(frame)

end

I use a one-bag type addon anyway, so this doens't really bother me, but what does is that B no longer CLOSES the bags. It's no longer a toggle. Anyone have a solution to that?

'OpenAllBags = OpenBackpack' would do the trick, having the original function run afterwards wouldnt do anything good :p

I'd quote Dainton from this thread

Edit: @ p3lim
I 'm not sure what else OpenAllBags does, but I know that it stops when one of the bags are already opened, so my logic was, to just pre-hook it and open a bag before that function runs ..

Code:

function OpenAllBags()

    if(IsBagOpen(0)) then

        OpenBackpack()

    else

        CloseBackpack()

    end

end

or just this

Code:

OpenBackpack = ToggleBackpack
