Not sure if it's a bug or something on my end, but perhaps you might know. When I'm on my druid, hunter, paladin (basically any class that has a "stance" bar to the left already) I have a slight error when getting in vehicles. Generally the "Eject" button is located next to these stance bars and are still there as usuals. What will occur is that the "Eject" button will overlap the first button or two of the AspectedAgain bar. I tried leaving spot 1 and 2 as blank's to see if that'd help offset it, but whatever is number 3 is shifted to number 1 spot in game. This is probably intended, just not sure how to fix the "Eject" issue. Generally it's when your in a Mammoth passenger mount from what I've seen so far.

i didn't intentionaly add any compatibility as i dont use that mod so if it should work well it would be by accident. i don't plan to add any either as that would mean i had to study the bartender4 code and its a pain in the a@# for nothing. but hey if u see any bugs feel free to post them here and i'll do my best to solve em ... if i can.

Just a quick question, is the aspect bar working with Bartender 4 now?

well folks finaly got to fixing the third error that came with 4.0.1, the "Invalid spell slot" error. was a simple matter of an argument needing to be passed as string... phew

Should that happen don't worry just re-download, overwrite the messed up version with the online one and you're good to try again ;)

hope this helps cheers

other than that ill try and see what the second error's all about i got it down to the line in question i just gotta remember what that line actually does 4 the program and how to alter it without causing more bugs. ill keep u posted as anything new develops. cheers :)

EDIT: well had some free time and some luck ... and so fixed 2 out of the 3 errors u mentioned, notably the actionbutton error and the AspectedNumButtons error. as for the third one for now it's not affecting functionality so we'll have to w8 till i figure that one out. other than that everything should work. as always feedback is appreciated (aceso2896 tnx for yours btw), and in return ill try to respond with the briefest delay. enjoy :banana:

Thanks for taking the time to look at those errors. I wasn't sure if anyone else got them or if I somehow broke something in the midst of everything (it's happened before). Thanks again!

Sidenote, not sure if you mentioned this before, but is there a possibility that you can alter some of the spells in the code on the user side? Say if I wanted a spell on the bar that isn't there is it possible I could add it? I use t use an addon called Class Buttons that would let you do it, sadly it was discontinued, but that's how I found your addon and love it. Even if there was the only place I could think to pull spell id's would be from the Cataclysm WoWhead portion of their site.

Not sure if I'm the only one encountering these errors but here are the ones I get on logging in and occasionally when I hover the spells. These is with zero addons loaded, but Swatter. Without Swatter loaded it shows errors still.

speckledegg — Tue, 23 Mar 2010 12:35:15 +0000

Thanks for updating this. Is there any chance that you could look at how this addon interacts with the new quest log display? I've noticed that it pushes the location of the quest log over so that it is now underneath the right two action bars... is there anything that can be done to keep the location of the quest log where it should be? I'd look at it myself but to be honest I have no idea what I'm looking at...

Nightsorrow — Fri, 11 Sep 2009 19:14:23 +0000

Sorry Garr3tt I had quitted (again) not long after played for 1x days of Wotlk and reaching 80 because in fact I hate instance farming and I have 0 interest in raiding anymore after hardcore raiding for the first 2-3 years since launch.

And of coz I don't read the EU forum :/

Anyway thanks for you work surely :>

I am coming back here to have a look just because I get bored recently and after looking at the news for the next expansion I have a bit of interest to get some casual WoWing again (although the expansion content doesn't really attract me much).

Guess I will play on Taiwan server because there are not much Hong Kong people left in the US WoW but I would use the English client for that.

Thanks for your effort again.

Have the taint issues been fixed in the newest update?

Previously, Aspected Again + combat + enter/exit vehicle = broken action bars.

Or do you need people who can test this?

ArgentSun — Fri, 24 Jul 2009 20:02:20 +0000

As a hunter, I've been having trouble with the "Aspect bar" and my Pet bar being active at the same time. When I log in/reload UI, everything is fine. But the moment my pet disappears (say, I mount up), the bar is gone for good - the next time I summon my pet, there is no bar, and it won't show up until I relog/reload UI.

I doubt this is intentional, but is there a way to fix that from the LUA files, or is a major update needed? Or am I just being silly?

I have spells like Battle Shout and Horn of Winter added to it, but when I don't have the rage or runic power and clicked on the button, it leaves that highlighted (but not toggled ON because I don't have enough rage/RP), and the highlighting last a few sec up to something like 20 sec before it returns to normal, or when I click something else so that it toggles GCD and hence refreshing the bar.
The same goes for when a buff fades, it stays in the toggled ON icon until a few sec or up to ~20 sec before it returns to normal. (Garr3tt's version fixed this part)

http://arcanist.hp.infoseek.co.jp/highLightedButBuffNotOn.jpg

Is it possible that it removes the highlighting of the button once it cannot be casted or in other word whenever the buff is not on me, so that I can easily know if I have such buff on me by looking at the bar, in real time?

Thanks.

fixed the highlighting of the buttons problem in the last update so feel free to download the new version.

I know how you feel. However, that's not the correct approach. There are ways to get around tainting issues and hooking secure frames. I'm going to look into the code here, and dabble around. If I get it to a point that I feel is worth it, I'll post a new version with added features/support/bug fixes.

Most (hunter) bar mods tainted severely after WoW 3.0 came out. ZHunterMod's bars were the first ones I tested that didn't taint at all, at any time (after updates).

The most recent version of it for WoW 3.1 (v3.1.0.2) uses a totally obsolete library (LibBabble-Spell-3.0), so its not ideal, but the bars do not taint. Which is the big thing.

well just finished the big update for 3.2 now works with the totembar!!! took me a while but i figured out a way around the UIParent_ManageFramePositions() call witch was preventing me from showing both frames at the same time and kept hiding the totembar frame ... :banana:

now as i said i didnt had problems with the pet bar in a long time as i removed repositioning code form the addon but ill take a look nevertheles just not now its 6 am and i'm finaly getting sleepy... enjoy the release :D any feedback is apreciated.

also any1 who wants to use the code feel free to do so...
