Bongos2

Version: 1.10.1

by: Tuller [More]

I have written a new action bar addon, called Dominos, and am no longer supporting this one. Please feel free to try it out, along with Trinity Bars, and Bartender 3

Bongos is an action bar replacement designed to be both low memory, and easy to setup. It is not as feature rich as other bar mods, but should include the features most commonly used.

Version History
A Brief Guide

Included Addons

Bongos2: The core addon.
Bongos2 ActionBar: Breaks up the main action bar into movable parts
Bongos2 Stats: A display for latency, framerate, and memory usage
Bongos2 RollBar: Makes the frame for rolling on items movable
Bongos2 CastBar: A movable casting bar, with the ability to show cast time
Bongos2 XP: A movable experience bar
Bongos2 MapBar: A movable mapbar
Bongos2 Options: A dynamically loaded options menu for Bongos

Features

Every Bongos bar can be moved, hidden, and have its scale and opacity altered
Sticky bars - Each bar can be anchored to any other bar
120 action buttons, which can be setup in any number of bars
Both macro and key binding text on action buttons can be hidden
Customizable stance transitions for each bar

General Settings

To bring up the options menu: type /bongos menu
To unlock bars: uncheck the lock bars option in the main options menu
To hide or show a bar: unlock bars, then middle click or shift right click it
To move a bar: unlock bars, and then click and drag it with the left mouse button
To bring up a bar's configuration menu, right click it

Key Bindings

Bindings for the Bongos action bar should only be done via the bindings menu in Bongos
To bind keys, open the main options panel, and select the bindings option. Hover over a button, then press a key to bind it to that button

Action Bar Settings

Accessing general action bar options: open up the main options window (/bongos menu) and select the action bars panel
Adjusting the layout of a given bar: unlock bars and right click the bar you want to adjust to bring up its configuration menu
Moving buttons: Hold down the key for moving buttons (shift by default), and drag a button. Alternatively, unlock button positions by shift right clicking the mini map button, or unchecking the option in the main options menu
Making a bar bigger: You can increase the maximum size of a given bar by reducing the number of action bars. To do so, adjust the action bars slider on the action bar panel of the main options menu. This option will reset the settings of your action bars

Stances and Paging

Stances and paging are configured via a bar's right click menu. With bars unlocked, right click the bar you want to change,

Slash Commands

All commands start with either /bongos, /bob, or /bgs
<barList> can have a possible value of an actionbar number, menu, bags, pet. class, or all
You can also specify a group or range of bars, the command /bo scale 1-3 class 1.2 will scale action bars 1 2 3, and the class bar to 120% of their normal size.
/bongos - Shows the options menu, if present
/bongos lock - Toggles locking bars positions
/bongos show <barList> - Shows <barList>
/bongos hide <barList> - Hides <barList>
/bongos toggle <barList> - Toggles <barList>
/bongos scale <barList> <scale> - Sets the scale of <barList> to <scale>
/bongos setalpha <barList> <opacity> - Sets the opacity of <barList> to <opacity>
/bongos set <profile> - Sets the current character to use <profile>
/bongos copy <profile> - Copies all settings from <profile>
/bongos delete <profile> - Deletes <profile>
/bongos reset - Loads default settings
/bongos version - Displays what version of bongos you're running
/keybound - Toggles keybinding mode

i can enable the option in both areas (interface options or via /bob), or enable one or the other, and they both seem to do the same thing the same way :P

thanks!!

Selfcast in Bongos toggles the Blizzard selfcast option.

This is a mod conflict. Make sure you're not using any mod that modifies actionbars in any way other than Bongos.

ok.. i have ctinstalled.. but not enabled.. so many the background changes are messing it up.. ill try with ct all deleted

OK.. deleted all addons and file save locations.. installed only bongos and it works fine now at least with rogue stealth

testing warrior now.. warrrio works great now too

.. sorry to report this as a problem.. as it appears the only real problem was stupid ct in background messing things up even though it was disabbled

You can still use CT mods with Bongos.
Delete CT_BarMod and CT_BottomBar from your /Interface directory.
Now you can use Bongos AND CT_Mod

Yes. Just check the box in the options window to lock buttons.

I tried to check the box in the wow interface option window but it didn't work. Is that window you were talking about?

If yes I have to try harder You should divide mem usage by 1.024, not just 1.000. Unless you are using hard drive makers Mb Would you mind if I translate your mods to spanish when I managed with them. Thanks.

BlackKnight6667 A Fallenroot Satyr Forum posts: 20 File comments: 18 Uploads: 0	Recent Convert Hi I Just switched over from Bib. I'm having some quick problems that can probably be answered with little effort. 1st, is there a way to get rid of the casting bar. I use a hud that has it built in and having the second casting bar is distracting. (Edit, just figured this one out by disableing the Bongos Castbar) 2nd, I downloaded Bongos Hunter. I'm trying to enable the script to change the bars based on range, and none of the drop downs are opening (to select bar, etc). (Edit Fixed # 2 also. just exited the program all the way and went back in Thanks for a great mod that will be better still when I have it working properly... __________________ Borkr, Maintankadin Defenders of Valhalla Last edited by BlackKnight6667 : 09-17-06 at 03:43 PM.

I don't really have an idea of how I could do it.

I am not sure if I am right. With "context" bars could I make the bars of my warrior change with te Battle Stances? If yes I have to try harder

The first bar should be changing. If not its a bug. You can make other bars change by scripting. I have a thread about it here, but it is a bit difficult to do.

You should divide mem usage by 1.024, not just 1.000. Unless you are using hard drive makers Mb

You're the first person to complain about it to me

I did think about it earlier, but decided against it for some reason.

Would you mind if I translate your mods to spanish when I managed with them.

Sure, you can do it

It'll be a bit hard right now since I haven't coded Bongos to be easily localized yet.

boohoo A Deviate Faerie Dragon Forum posts: 15 File comments: 9 Uploads: 0	I'm still getting the problem with the Defensive stance spell icons. I have the latest version which I think is supposed to fix it. This is the error I get, Im showing the whole thing as it might be related to macro's (SuperMacro), I have some macro's in defense stance and not in any other stance: [2006/09/17 23:12:16-101]: SuperMacro\SM_Tooltip.lua:98: attempt to concatenate a nil value SuperMacro\SM_Tooltip.lua:98: in function `GetActionCooldown' actionBar\button.lua:280: in function `UpdateCooldown' actionBar\button.lua:227: in function `Update' actionBar\bar.lua:310: in function `Update' actionBar\bar.lua:373: in function `SetStanceOffset' <string>:"return function(bar,event)...":3: in function `?' Bongos\script.lua:197: in function `CallBarEventForBar' Bongos\script.lua:172: in function `CallBarEvent' Bongos\script.lua:208: in function <Interface\AddOns\Bongos\script.lua:206> It's a bit irrelevant me saying this but is there an alternative to SuperMacro? I've done some research and it seems it might just be SuperMacro messing around. Before I used ImprovedErrorFrame and it didn't show me an error message as thorough as this.

Auralei A Cyclonian Forum posts: 41 File comments: 9 Uploads: 0	Problem with paging! I just recently went back to bongos from CTBarMod. My prblem is with shapeshifting and the paging that happens with that action. For somereason when I shift back to caster, it will not return my main bar to the caster bar, it remains the bar I use for the form I had shifted into, forcing me to shift + arrow key to fix it. This wouldn't be an issue but when I'm in the middle of a fight, the buttons quit working until I shift + arrow key to page back to my caster bar!
