Tidy Bar

Version: 5.2

by: danltiger [More]

TidyBar is a compact replacement for your action bars. It retains the design of the standard interface, which reducing the clutter on your screen.

Central Layout: The standard action buttons are centered on the bottom of the screen, with all your additional action buttons stacked above.

Vertical Action Bars: The action bars along the right side of your screen will remain hidden until you hover your mouse over the area.

Bags and Character Buttons: The bag and Character buttons are repositioned to the bottom right corner of your screen, and will remain hidden until you hover your mouse in that area.

Note: A well-known issue occurs when trying to enable or disable an actionbar while in combat; The bars do not reposition themselves until combat has finished. This is unlikely to ever be resolved, being a restriction in Blizzard's UI system; Only Blizzard code may change the position and visibility of a secure frame during combat.

Other Issues:
The stupid rested-state bar isn't positioning itself properly. I haven't had a chance to figure out a fix.

I'm not going to bug you by popping up an ad whenever you hit "Download". If you enjoy this addon and want to send a monetary "Thank You", please visit our Pledgie page by clicking on the button, above.

5.1: ToC bump

4.9:
- TOC Update for WoW 4.3
- Updated Corner Menu artwork

4.8:
- TOC update for WoW 4.2
- Updated for 4.2 UI Changes (Keyring removal, etc)

4.7:
Hopefully fixed the vehicle bar problems when the vehicle is destroyed, AND fixed the Flyout spell bar issue

4.2:
Hopefully fixed the experience bar and corner bar resetting.

---------------------
Ch-ch-ch-changes...
---------------------
3.14: Fixed Pet Bar, as I broke it when fixing shaman bar

3.13: Fixed the shaman totem bar problem. I think.. ;-)

Release 3.5: Main menu (character/spell/etc) buttons will properly stay visible when
the vehicle interface is shown. Fixed some issues with protected function calls.
New corner menu artwork! Hope you like it; I think it makes it look a wee bit
more polished.
---------------------
Release 3.4: Still trying to make sure the bar behaves well during vehicle switching. Added scaling.
---------------------
Release 3.3: Added event monitoring for exiting a vehicle, which will immediately update the bars.
---------------------
Release 3.2: Fixed issue where pet bar background was visible when bottom bars were hidden.
--------------------
Release 3.1: Changed TOC file to reflect the current interface version.
--------------------
Release 3: The side actionbars will now show up (regardless of mouseover) when the user drags an
actionbutton. The mouseover for the bag and mainmenu bars are now linked.
Code cleaned up; Should please my fellow developers. Removed some Runebar
positioning code (which was in there by accident).
--------------------
Release 2: Added mouseover behavior to the inner right-side action buttonbar. Added a
watcher frame under the Bags and Side Buttons to catch the mouseover when the
cursor is between the buttons. Previously, when you moved your cursor into
the narrow gap between the button sets, the buttons would disappear. Also,
removed dependency on Wowace! Slowly but surely, I'm cleaning it up.. ;-)
--------------------
Release 1: Initial Release

You can still click on the (now invisible) icons, but just a heads up. You should be able to test this with a warlock, mage, or hunter of sufficient level...

Stenwick A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 1 File comments: 1 Uploads: 0	Thank you Thank you so much for this addon. I've been so frustrated by having to choose between a nigh-unusable interface (specifically, not being able to have my bars centrally located, and not being able to have three rows of bars), and having to abandon the look and feel of WoW entirely. This is exactly what I was looking for (and was about to create myself had I not stumbled upon it). Edit: You might consider making the "autohide" behavior of the bags and menu buttons an optional behavior. I actually value lack of customization options in an addon, and I like that you actually have none in this one. However, I do feel that it's the only thing that sort of breaks from the "normal" way the WoW interface behaves. Mind you, I can just tweak this on my own, but it's not so much that it bothers me as, like I said, it's the only thing that makes it obvious that it isn't just a new default Blizz UI layout, imho.

Hmm... it makes sense. Although, I'm not sure what event that could be associated with; There's no UNIT_VEHICLE_DESTROYED event. I'll have to test it this evening.

OK all this time and the bug I was describing earlier finally showed up again.

I'm really not sure the exact conditions to reproduce it. I was doing my argent dailies in that field of bones (or whatever the place is called where you joust the skellies). I think what triggered it was being on a vehicle while the vehicle gets destroyed. After that, I could not get my stance bar (it vanished), and the micromenu floated in its own space.

Good to hear! I'll keep my fingers crossed. ;-)

No luck reproducing any errors tonight. Which is good.

Maybe what happened last time was because I just downloaded the new version and did a /reload, some of the old version's code was still floating about. I'll continue to use it over the weekend and see how we do.

I know this is just something you guys do in your spare time, so I appreciate it. =) I will try to give more detailed steps to recreate the problem. As for the questions you asked, I play 1680x1050, and since the patch I don't need to use Blizzard's UI scale feature anymore; the default size of everything is perfect. I'm using very few mods at the moment: wChat, DBM, Decursive, Auctionator and Recount. One of the times that TidyBar's side bar stopped working, I got an error message re: Decursive. So it's possible these two are not getting along? Actually as I typed this I just realized I am raiding tonight, so as far as giving detailed / reliable steps to reproduce the error I prolly have to wait until tomorrow night. =/ Last edited by bobbank : 11-17-10 at 03:42 PM.

Effing mounted UI.....

Godddam Argent tournamathingy...

Edit: I really do test this before I release it. Honest! Granted, it's rather late at night when I get time to futz, but ... *sigh*

Edit 2: I just tested mounting, dismounting, changing specs, changing gear, flying, dying and rezing. I couldn't seem to get oddities. Give me some mo' info, if you could. Screen rez, UI scale, other running addons... I can't fix it if I can't see what's broken..

New but similar bugs were created.

If I get on my mount for Argent tourney and mount/dismount enough (possibly in combination with a dual spec talent change), the side bar ceases to work. The micromenu will appear in a random location, someplace in between where it should be and where it is under vehicle mode. And, my stance bar (druid) disappears permanently.

Oh, thank you. I will try this out tonight. I had set up Bartender and basically used it to try to emulate your layout as a hold-me-over. XD

Seems like it's possible if Dominos and Bartender are doing it. I'm not sure how it would be done, off the top of my head.

is it possible to hide the standart vehicle UI ? to convert it to became the number 1 bar

basically like dominos and bartender does

or do a VehicleMenuBar:SetScale(TidyBarScale-0.1)

the -0.1 to scales to match, vehicle is a little bigger

It's that translucent blue bar that indicates how much rested XP you have, in addition to your regular XP.

And, this bug is fixed, too. Although, all I did was just hide the exhaustion bar and the tick. Too much work for such a simple thing.
