The metamap import works like a charm, thanks.
All we need now is Cartographer support ![]() |

Phurion,
Your point is well taken - I'll start leaving the last 2-3 good versions available for download. I'll look into the MiniMap Button problem, it must be related to DetachableMiniMapButtons or Squeenix minimap. I don't currently use either of those and I've never seen the MiniMap button not be there. [EDIT]: I can't find DetachableMiniMapButtons anywhere and the only version of Squeenix I'm finding hasn't been updated since June '06. ![]()

Thanks Cipher.
And my bad on the mod name. It's simple "Detached Minimap Buttons", the latest version available here. Squeenix is the latest version posted over at wowace.com/files. Hope that helps. |

I don't get it. Why not just use MetaMapWKB? Seems to have everything I need in it. Why use this and go through all the importing and switching to Cartographer? Beyond Ace 2.

WoWKB vs. MetaMapWKB
If MetaMapWKB works fine for you, you're happy with it and it does everything you need then keep on using it. MetaMapWKB is a branch of WoWKB that most likely occurred because I stopped supporting WoWKB. When I started playing WoW again I picked up MetaMap and found it just had too much crap in it for my tastes - the last straw was when my data got messed up following a patch. I had designed WoWKB so that couldn't happen but all that functionality was removed from MetaMapWKB. I'm maintaining WoWKB for my own personal use because I prefer it and for others who want a stand-alone mod. This enables me to support both MapNotes and Cartographer so people can use whichever they prefer. I like having more options and combining a crapload of other mods into one Uber mod is difficult to maintain and in my opinion gives a sub-optimal result. One guy maintaining six mods is going to have a hard time maintaining the same level of quality and functionality as six different guys each focused on their piece. |

Phurion,
I've been running with Detached Minimap Buttons and Squeenix for quite awhile now and have not seen a problem with the KB button disappearing. I've noticed a few other MiniMap buttons with strange behavior like AlphaMap and LootLink but the KB one seems just fine. What other AddOns are you using? Did you figure out what was going on? |

Howdy!
I just moved from MetaMap to Cartographer + WoWKB, and so far, I really like what I see! Just one feature I miss, from MetaMap -- with MetaMap, I could set WKB so that it wouldn't add a new entry unless I hit a (bindable) key. This helped me keep my database very clean and only contain things I cared about. Would it be possible to get this option in WoWKB? |

Re: WoWKB vs. MetaMapWKB
![]() -- the only thing that bothers me is the duplications. I brought in my MetaMapWKB which had no dups. Right when it was imported, it seems like 70% of the items were dup'd. What method does this addon use to reduce duplications? If it's the coords, then no wonder why there are so many dups.

Thanks for the cartographer support. I stopped using Metamap a few months ago, so it's nice to see it back. That should get a few people converted in my guild whom wanted cartographer but didn't want to leave their MetamapWKB.
The thing I'm wondering about is that people commonly distribute metamap exported databases for the MetaMapWKB (the ones imported though MetamapCVT/MetaMapEXP.lua) - is there any way to easily import these into WKB, without my having to first disable cartographer/load metamap/import into metamap/import into WKB... merge the data, if import doesn't already merge with existing data. Then disable metamap and reenable cartographer. There are a couple of good lists that I like to keep imported into my db, and this feature would be useful for me, simply as a way of saving time. Not an issue if there isn't any way to, I don't mind doing that every week or two, and understand what a pain it can be to write/test import scripts. I simply wondered, incase the data format in the backup db is close enough, if it could be easily imported. Thanks! |

Note Sharing
I cannot seem to get the note sharing feature to work; no matter if the target is in my guild, group or their name is directly typed in.

Search field focus
It would be nice to have search field autofocused and option for inline search (results show as you type, not when you press >enter<).
