BindPad -- Created by Tageshi
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. WHAT IS "BindPad"?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
BindPad is an addon to make KeyBindings for spells, items, and macros.
You no longer need actionbar slots just to make Key bindings for your macores etc.
BindPad addon provides many icon slots in its frame. You can drag and drop
anything into one of these slots, and click the slot to set KeyBindings.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. HOW TO USE "BindPad"?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
(1) Type /bindpad or /bp to display BindPad frame.
(Also you can find "Toggle BindPad" Keybinding command in standard
KeyBindings frame of Blizzard-UI.)
(2) Open spellbook frame (p), you bag (b), or Macro Panel (/macro).
(Also you can use three mini-icons on BindPad frame to open these windows.)
(3) Drag an spell icon, item icon, or macro icon using left button drag and
drop it onto the BindPad window.
(Maybe you need shift key + left button drag if action bars are locked.)
(4) Now you see the icon placed on BindPad frame. Click it,
and a dialog window "Press a key to bind" will appear.
(5) Type a key to bind. And click 'Close' button.
(6) When you want to remove icons from BindPad frame, simply drag away the icon
and press right click to delete it.
Note that KeyBinding itself will not be unbinded when you delete the icon.
To unbind it, click the icon and click Unbind button on the dialog window.
Also you can simply override Keybindings.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. HOW TO USE TABS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
3.1. SLOTS TABS
There are four tabs called Slots Tab on the top of BindPad frame
(like Blizzard's Macro frame).
[General Slots] is for common icons used for every characters and every specs.
[<Character> Specific Slots] is for icons specific to current character
and current spec.
[2] and [3] (aka. 2nd and 3rd <Character> specific slots) will act
in the same way as [<Character> Specific Slots].
Note that you can use [<Character> Specific Slots] tab only after you click
'Character Specific Key Bindings' check box at standard KeyBindings frame of Blizzard-UI.
From BindPad version 1.5, you can see this checkbox on BindPad window itself too.
(Also BindPad will inform you about 'Character Specific Key Bindings' and automatically
activate it for you when you click [<Character> Specific Slots] tab.)
3.2. PROFILE TABS
There are another three tabs called Profile Tab on the side of BindPad frame.
(like Blizzard's Talent frame)
Different Profile can hold different contents in [<Character> Specific Slots].
You can click a Profile tab to switch current Profile, and your choice of
Profile is saved for each Talent specs and automatically reverted to former
profile when you change talent spec. If you choose same Profile for both
talent specs this automatic change will not happen.
Note that [General Slots] tab is not effected by Profile change, as all
contents of [General Slots] tab is common for all characters AND all specs.
If you change Profile while [General Slots] tab is shown,
BindPad will automatically shows [<Character> Specific Slots] tab of
specified Profile.
3.3. CAN I SWITCH PROFILE IN COMBAT? ON STANCE CHANGE?
No, you cannot.
If you need different skills binded for different stances/forms,
simply use the stance condition to decide on what skill to use.
Example: /cast [stance:1/2] Berserker Stance; [stance:3] Intercept
Where [Stance:1/2] is conditioning the macro for you to be in battle stance
or defensive stance and [stance:3] is conditioning you to be in berserker stance.
This works for all classes with stances (Including rogues for stealth [stance:1]
and shadow dance [stance:2] or none of the previous [stance:0]).
Druid example: /cast [stance:1] Bash; [nostance:1] Healing Touch
[nostance] = Caster, [stance:1] = Bear, [stance:2] = Aquatic, [stance:3] = Cat,
[stance:4] = Travel, [stance:5] = Tree/Moonkin if available else Flight,
[stance:6] = Flight if Tree/Moonkin is not available.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. "You want to convert this icon into a BINDPAD MACRO?"... What?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
"BindPad Macro" is a new feature from BindPad version 1.8.0 ;
which allow you to make almost unlimited number of virtual macro icons.
Older versions of BindPad just let you save your limited action bar slots.
This new BindPad will let you save your limited macro slots on the standard
"Create Macro" panel.
Usage:
- Click the small red "+" icon to create an empty BindPad Macro.
- Right-click an existing spell/item/macro icon on BindPad to convert it into a BindPad Macro.
- Right-click the "BindPad Macro" to edit macro-text.
- ...and you can use left-click to set keybindings as usual.
Note that BindPad Macro will only exist within the BindPad frame;
You can drag-and-drop them within BindPad, but you cannot drop them outside.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. DETAILS AND MORE INFORMATIONS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
BindPad addon utilizes new functions added from WoW API 2.0 .
You can use these functions (and many others) in any addons or macros.

Re: BindPad 1.8.1
I check my addons for updates daily so I have the latest versions of both addons here in WoWI. Furthermore, have you thought of enabling keybinding sets like http://www.wowace.com/wiki/KeyProfiler (well maybe not as spesifically as KeyProfiler, but just so that you can easily respec and have the keybindings ready) I've been missing for an addon that did both direct keybindings and profiles. But anyways good job. : ) |

1. Create a key binding to an on-use trinket using BindPad. 2. Drag this key binding to the actionbar. 3. Zone into or out of a battleground. 4. The hotkey text will disappear.

I'm not sure if this happens every time I zone as I seem to recall it being somewhat inconsistent, but with 'Show Hotkeys' enabled, the hotkeys are disappearing for my macros that are managed with BindPad. I use Bartender3 for my action bars.

Great addon, but you spelled macros wrong in the beginning of the "What is bindpad".

Sorry, hadn't had a chance to test it. Here's what I have:
1) Install new Bindpad, on login hotkeys are shown. Neither Bindpad nor Bongos options are set to show hotkeys, but toggling Bongos options on and then off turns off hotkeys showing for that session. 2) a reloadui will cause the hotkeys to show again, can be toggled off with bongos again. 3) Next login will have hotkeys shown again. 4) If hotkeys are not showing, and you turn them on in Bindpad, they show...but if you then click them off in Bindpad, they still show, and must be toggled in Bongos again. Using Bongos3 beta 6, bindpad 1.8.0 Thanks! Edit: Btw, I saw the same thing in 1.7.1, which is why I'm still using 1.7.0. It does everything I need it to atm and still works fine. 1.7.1 had the same hotkey behaviour pre 2.4 as well.

<del>For me, Bongos3 won't show BindPad's hot key display at all.</del> --------- EDIT --------------- I was not able to reproduce exactly same issue. For me, BindPad's hotkey will be temporally shown for specific icons when I check/unceck BindPad's "Show Hotkeys" checkbox only when I enabled "Show Binding Text" of Bongos Interface Options. The specific icons was having both keybinding set by BindPad and by Bongos. It was never shown when I disabled "Show Binding Text" of Bongos Interface Options. Maybe different version of Bongos? I tested with Bongos3 Beta.6 . I need step by step instruction to reproduce the issue, and need exact varsion number of your Bongos3.

Hey, looks great, been using Bindpad for awhile now, good tool. One thing, for some reason with this version of Bindpad, the keybindings keep showing up on my action bars for all the buttons. I've been using 1.7.0, always worked as intended. Using Bongos3, if I check and uncheck "Show keybinds" in Bongos options they'll disappear, but reappear as soon as I click a button. Checking/unchecking the box in Bindpad doesn't seem to do anything. Disabling Bindpad fixes the issue.
Thanks again, good addon! |
