Mundunugu Caddy  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: v3.1
by: BDelacroix [More]

Mundunugu Caddy is another in the series of addons to save action bar button space.

Mundunugu Caddy will create four frames for each of the four schools of Shaman totems and add those totems to the appropriate frame. It also adds a few spells from the elemental schools to the appropriate frame.

Each frame can be moved separately to wherever you wish them to stay on the screen. The layout coordinates are saved per character. You can do this by right click dragging either the frame background or the totem school image attached to each frame.

No setup is required. Mundunugu Caddy will set itself up. It will detect if the current player is actually a shaman. If not, it will go away.

TODO:

* make this work with 3.0 (it should just require a TOC file change, I haven't tested that yet)

* I'm not entirely happy with the totem frame title images. This may change.

* I am thinking of having a setting to allow the image to be right aligned or left aligned per frame.

* I am thinking of allowing a choice between alliance and horde totems to be the frame header graphic. This depends on what I decide on with the current images.

2.0:
*Changed the file version to reflect that it is indeed for Wow 2.0 series.
*Removed the totem icons. For a weekend I had the option to have either horde totems or alliance totems for the icon. I never really liked them anyway. They looked clunky. I had considered getting rid of them all together. However, I just changed it now to a more generic title icon.
*New Blizzard Interface Options panel.
*Scaling option
*Individual right or left orientation options for the elemental frame title images.

3.0:

* Blizzard tossed some totems out and added some. I've updated the caddy to work with it rather than give the error of missing spell IDs in the chat window.

* Fixed a frame naming fiasco. Its transparent to the users anyway, but the name was ugly for programming purposes.

3.1:

* Removed reference to the now missing spellID 8166 (poison cleanse totem).

Configuration Options

I spent this morning bashing out the code to create a configuration panel in the Blizzard Interface Options. It turned out to be quite easy really.

What I have actually works I can scale the frames.

I'm going to work on adding the right/left alignment options and the alternate totem drag images.

Re: Quick to assume

If I did a configuration panel, I would attempt to put it into the blizzard configuration panel setup they have given us.

I'm not a minimap button fan. In interface design, though, options are good. So perhaps I could add one that could be off or on according to the user's desire.

Also, the buttons are larger than I like as well. All things in time...

Better yet, just add your options to the Blizz options window. Leave the slash command in place to open the Blizz frame to your addon's options, and skip the minimap button altogether.
I agree that 500 minimap buttons would be most undesirable, but you must think before you speak. Being the avid addon user that i am i of course have a solution to this problem. http://www.wowinterface.com/download...ttonFrame.html Now, your idea for the menu is great, but, if your going to take the time to type a /slash command for the blizzard addons menu, then you might as well just type one for the hypothetical addon's option menu. I would personally just like to click a button and be in the options menu immediately. Here is a link to my ui if your curious ( not my shaman ). http://i293.photobucket.com/albums/mm61/shadowsoath/bleh.jpg

Lightbulb Possible Changes

I use an excessive amount of add-ons, so I'm used to the way they have been developed over the years, and i must say, your's is my favorite totem add-on I've used. I like the fact that you divided them up according to type, but i do have a few suggestions for you.

1 : If you add an options menu of any kind, do not make it accessible by a /slash command only. Please make a minimap button.

2 : I think both of your ideas are great ones and you should definitely make it possible for both factions to choose between the horde or draenei(alliance) totem for the picture. Also, you should definitely make it so that you can change the side that the picture is anchored on(right or left).

3 : I think that is is good that you put the skills such as Flametounge and Rockbiter into the frames, but i feel that having the shocks there is unnecessary and it takes up extra space.

4 : Make an option to change the scale of the frames. I know that if i was able to make them smaller, i would be able to find a much better place for them in my ui. Others may feel the same way, or some may want them bigger.

That is all i can think of at the moment. I hope it was helpful and i would very much like to see at least the ability to re-size the frames. If i think of anything else i will be sure to let you know.
