Bongos2  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

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

Tuller, I'm assuming you don't have a Beta account to make this work on it, eh?

BC is absolutely BRUTAL without your mod T_T

I'm having the exact same problem on my warrior; haven't tested rogue yet. No clue what is going on.
My problem has been that my icon hasn't been updating properly, but it might an issue specific to my build.

Sage is essentially done now, so I'll be updating Bongos again soon. Its likely to be the last update until WoW 2.0.

I've been using Bongo's for a long time and love it. I do have a question. Scripts.

I'd like to set Bongos Bars to show when a key is pressed. When I go to the script, the drop down arrows are empty (btw, I remove the castbar, mapbar, rollbar, stat, and xp folders).

For example, I'd like bar 2 to show when the control key is pressed. Bar 3 to show when the left alt is pressed, etc.

Thanks for the help.

Hurray, I now feel better

does this addon allow me to move/scale buttons only and not the whole action bar? And do I get an option to keep the artwork and the fix position of the standard action bars?
There's no option to keep the standard action bars. You cannot scale a single button, unless its the only button on a bar.

So is there a way to center the action bars with a command or not?
bars auto dock to other bars when close. If you want to center a bar in respect to the screen, you're going to want to use frame:SetPoint() followed by frame:SetUserPlaced(true). Actionbars are named in the format BActionBar<number>

I thought Bongos had the ability to move the radar?

(re: problem with action bar page FPS stutter)

I feel pretty smart. I went to check some addons and noticed that something reset the allocated memory back to 48mb. I reset to 96 and everything is smooth again.

Edit: logged in again, still with 96, and the stutter's back. Problem's not specific to bongo bars, but don't have time to play with it much.

I turned on the FPS display and spent a few minutes with this. If either paged action bar is visible, FPS rate takes a huge dive. If neither is visible, FPS does not change.

So perhaps it's drawing the icons again or something like that which causes the lag.

edit: Flexbar also has this problem, so maybe it's something in a recent WoW patch.
Edit - did further testing and it was Stancesets v3 causing my problem. I love Bongos, thanks for this great addon.

Mouse over

Very good mod!

The only thing I miss is the ability to hide/show bars on mouse over, and an option to hide non-empty buttons in a bar.

I am basically juut looking for an addon to display additional bars/buttons (in and out of combat events) on my screen while keeping the rest the same.
