Spec synchronization

[Mars85]

Hello,

I'm searching an addon which helps me keeping the actionbars synced for dualspec. I know there are button saving/loading addons, but I don't want some "magic" where I can't know what is changed by the addon (such function in the same addon would be great, but I mainly need the check).

I basicly need two functions (two addons would also be okay):
- Checking if all spells/abilities are placed somewhere on the actionbars, telling me which aren't (used several keywords and didn't find any addon for that )
- Telling me which actionbar buttons aren't in sync between the specs (like "bar 1 button 1: Roll vs. Empty")

Regards,
Mars

LearningAid will do that, among other things. I may have seen a standalone addon that only did that at some point, but I have no idea what it was called.

Hello, thanks I will take a look at it.

Maybe someone remembers the other addon? Because even the development page of Learning Aid tells thhat's not 5.x compatible.

I remember it but it's not been updated for 5.x either

SpellLight (optionally with SilentRespec to suppress the respec spam)

If you open the "Files" tab on the Learning Aid Curse Forge page, you will find that the "r13" version is MoP compatible. I know it's dated august 29, 2012, but since 5.0.4 went live on the 28th (and it works well with the MoP expac) and that MoP was in Beta for a few months before that, I think it's safe to use. I know that it has not given me any problems, at least.

Learning Aid works fine in MoP. Just check the "Load out of date addons" box on the addons screen.

[Mars85]

Okay thanks, I was distracted by the bold text which tells that it's not compatible and that there was only .pkg listed as updated in r13 So I'll try.

I think the requirement that actionbars shouldn't be synced without giving me information before doing that is too specific, so I'll write something for that.

[Phanx]

Yes, r13 is the latest version; as the per the changelog that version was specifically updated for patch 5.0.4.

[Phanx]

Why do you care which buttons are out of sync, if you just want to get them in sync?

[Mars85]

I don't want them to just get synced... I want them to get synced after I ensured that this won't change spec specific stuff, most likely I have to make a conditional macro This could happen several times while leveling.

[Phanx]

Well, you could just write the spec conditions into your macro:

/cast [spec:2, mod:shift] Wild Charge; [spec:2, stealth] Pounce; [spec:2] Mangle; [mod:shift] Moonfire; Wrath

[Mars85]

Yeah that is what I want to do... but I don't want to go through all actionbars and diff them manually
