Tracking button graphical error

[Mephisto_VI]

Not sure if this is related to the scaling option in wow or not but I have noticed this in several versions of nUI and nUI+. The icon that is supposed to be in the center of the tracking minimap button is no longer there and floating free down and to the left in the middle of the display! It is an annoyance more than anything and does shift when I move the minimap button (detached minimap button addon, if that is helpful). It does seem to move proportionately with its button, but not off screen. I will try and disable UI Scaling and see if that fixes it, but I do think this happened in the past without scaling enabled. Edit coming later to post results of disabling scaling.

That is something I've never seen before... and I have played with UI scaling a good bit myself.

I would be curious to know if it happens if you disable all mods except nUI?

I promised an edit, but thought a new post would be better. This might be another minimap related bug. I disabled the minimap in the panel using /nui minimap and the icon stayed put this time, but i also had disabled scaling. I had to renable it to find the button since it had been moved off screen. The icon did remain in place after reenabling the scaling option. I will log back in and see if it still does so with the minimap back in its original place. Edit or another post coming soon.

EDIT: Confirmed as a minimap related bug. I left scaling on and at the same setting, but moved the minimap back to the original place in the upper right corner and the icon remained anchored to its button.

Again -- have you tried disabling all mods except nUI and see if the button stays where it belongs or stays broken? I use nUI with scaling and do not have the problem you are referring to, nor has anyone else reported it.

If I understand this correctly you use a minimap add on (like seximap ect.) to move the minimap without disabling nui's minimap management? If that is the case it will most certainly cause problems with the tracking button as well as others because you have two mods fighting over which one controls the minimap.

This sentence catches my eye. While using nUI, the tracking button is supposed to be at the top left of the minimap. With a seperate addon that detaches the minimap buttons from the map, I would think that it would automatically interfere with nUI. It may also adversely interact with nUI's button bag if you use that feature as well.

Do you have the same issue when you disable the addon you use that detaches the minimap buttons?

going to test this out. since nui moves the minimap buttons off the screen and reduces clutter, i dont think i need that button addon anymore. testing that out here in a sec to see if removing the addon fixes it.

EDIT: Yup, you guys were right. DetachedMiniButtons was the guilty addon. I removed it from the addon folder and the tracking button (along with the icon in the center of it) went to its proper place on the minimap in the info panel. My apologies for not noticing the request earlier to check other addons to further test this. I tend to miss things when I am tired lol.

Just out of curiosity, I wonder why the conflict with that addon? I don't expect an answer, but maybe I will finally learn lua and I can find out for myself.
