Not sure whether that is possible as I read that it was a fixed size but I will take a look at its innards and see how it works

Well, doing my usual infopanel set up and I have successfully got the watch frame linked to the infopanel. However, it doesn't seem to want to go in the panel. And once the infopanel is set up the watch frame is no longer moveable by nUI.

I'm reparenting WatchFrame which is the main frame for the Objectives window but it just refuses to keep the anchors I give it. I can't see where but perhaps nUI is re-anchoring after I have reparented it.

So, for now at least, it isn't possible to move the watchframe into an infopanel.

You probably need to call nUI_Movers:lockFrame( WatchFrame, false, OBJECTIVES_TRACKER_LABEL ); to unlock the frame so you can move and/or size it. Also have a look in the [ nUI > Integration > nUI_Minimap.lua ] file at the bottom to see the handstands you have to do to move/resize the frame.

Hmm, thanks Scott.

I'm doing this at present for resizing so I guess I need to use the title instead of nil.
Code:
plugin.sizeChanged = function( scale, height, width )
	local options  = plugin.options;
	local Objectives   = plugin.Objectives;
	plugin.scale = scale;
	nUI_Movers:lockFrame( Objectives, false, nil );
	Objectives:SetWidth( width ); 
	Objectives:SetHeight( height ); 
	nUI_Movers:lockFrame( Objectives, true, nil );
end
And this is the code I have set up for enabling it.
Code:
plugin.setEnabled = function( enabled )
	if plugin.enabled ~= enabled then
		plugin.enabled = enabled;
		if not enabled then
			local Objectives = plugin.Objectives;
			if Objectives.saved_parent then
				nUI_Movers:lockFrame( Objectives, false, nil );
				Objectives:SetParent( Objectives.saved_parent );
				Objectives:SetPoint( "TOPRIGHT", MinimapCluster, "BOTTOMRIGHT", 0, 0 );
				Objectives:SetBackdropBorderColor( Objectives.border_color );
				Objectives:SetBackdropColor( Objectives.backdrop_color );
			end
		else
			local Objectives = WatchFrame;
			print(Objectives);
			plugin.Objectives = Objectives;
			if not Objectives.saved_parent then
				Objectives.saved_parent   = Objectives:GetParent();
				Objectives.border_color   = Objectives:GetBackdropBorderColor();
				Objectives.backdrop_color =Objectives:GetBackdropColor();
			end
			Objectives:SetParent( plugin.container );
			Objectives:SetPoint( "TOPLEFT", plugin.container, "TOPLEFT", 10, -10 );
			Objectives:SetPoint( "BOTTOMRIGHT", plugin.container, "BOTTOMRIGHT", 0, 0 );
			Objectives:SetFrameStrata( plugin.container:GetFrameStrata() );
			Objectives:SetFrameLevel( plugin.container:GetFrameLevel()+1 );
			Objectives:SetBackdropBorderColor( 0, 0, 0, 0 );
			Objectives:SetBackdropColor( 0, 0, 0, 0 );
								
			nUI_Movers:lockFrame( Objectives, true, nil );
		end				
	end			
end
It's the same code I use for my other info panels but I guess the big time resizing we need for the watchframe needs an extra set of change ?

Will try it out again tomorrow though.

I think the thing that may be an issue here is that you need a "StartMoving" and a "StartSizing" call after you unlock the frame and before you start trying to change the size. Then you need a "StopMovingOrSizing" when you're done.

Also, you should probably use the label to unlock the frame, but you are correct to not use the label when you lock it back. Otherwise it will appear in the movable frame list when you use '/nui movers'

One other thing... I suspect that resizing the tracking window to fit the info panel is going to cause issues with "not enough room to track more quests" etc.... not sure how that's going to play out.
