Geist

Version: 100105.1

by: Cidrei [More]

Geist seems to be working fine with Dragonflight. Let me know if anything crops up.

Geist is incompatible with addons using LibActionButton-1.0, including ElvUI. This is not a bug so much as two incompatible button systems. Geist uses the built-in ActionButton functionality provided by WoW while buttons generated by LibActionButton-1.0 use custom code to achieve their goals. As this is not a bug in Geist, I have no intentions of figuring out a workaround at this time. My apologies for any inconvenience this causes.

Geist provides a twenty-five button action bar that displays under the mouse cursor at a keypress for quick and convenient access. Geist includes Masque support for button skinning.

How to use: Bind a key to Geist using the keybinding interface in the menu. Geist will display whenever that key is pressed with the mouse over the center button.

kergoth A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 136 Uploads: 7	I must be missing something, but how exactly do I drag a spell into geist? I pick up a spell, hold down the geist button so I see the buttons, click on one, and it closes out and I see an empty square with 'geist' on it. Not very intuitive.

That should work.

PERFECT thanks so much!

bind SHIFT-R GeistAnchor:LeftButton

That is the actual line in the bindings file...am I doing something wrong?

As I understand it, this is a Blizz bug. It's taking the modifier as a key press, all by itself, without allowing you to add a modifier. I'm looking at changing the binding system soon.

In the mean time, you can edit the bindings manually (which is not very friendly, I know). It's the file(s) "bindings-cache.wtf" in your WTF folder.

P.S. I have tried a variation of the same with ctrl+ and alt+

Is it possible to include an option to lock it, so buttons are not accidently dragged?

Geist responds to the default UI setting in this regard. If you lock the buttons in your interface options, Geist's buttons should be locked as well.

psychotic A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 1 File comments: 3 Uploads: 0	2.2 patch has caused my geist to show 25 warstomp icons on my druid, and 25 feign death icons on my hunter. It is the first slot in the action bar. The item that was in geist before the patch is still there, but action bar slot one icon has taken the spot of the actual item's icon in the slot.

It's supported, just not a lot. I run Bartender as well, and I've received no errors. What seems to be the problem?
