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.

Next version will allow you to do this. The current keybinding interface doesn't accept mouse keys.

In the meantime, here's the manual way to do it, as copied from Carceroth's comment on ui.worldofwar.net

...to bind to a mouse buttons, just go into your /wtf/account/*insertaccountnamehere*/ folder, and open "bindings-cache.wtf" in wordpad.

Do a search (CTRL+F) for Geist, and you should see the binding written there. Like such:

bind Q CLICK GeistAnchor:LeftButton

Then just replace the letter with "BUTTON*" where * is the mouse button number. So for button 5 (my preference hehe), the whole line would read as follows:

bind BUTTON5 CLICK GeistAnchor:LeftButton

Cyberedelf A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 7 Uploads: 0	My roommate is looking for something like this, but with a unique twist. Maybe you can help or at least direct us. He wants a bar that follows centered on his cursor. I know I have had frames bug and stick to my cursor. So I assume if it can be done on accident it can be done on purpose. He then wants the bar to become stationary on a mouse_button*_down. He wants a button to go off i the button is realeased over a button on the bar or back to following (centered) on the cursor if released somewhere else. Ideally, he would like the frame to track over the current target (not the mouse), but since I don't think this is possible, I proposed the above.

It wasn't visible all the time, but it worked in a similar manner. You pressed the GBM button, and when you let go of the key, would activate the button under it, or just hide again if there wasn't one. That functionality is planned to make a return to Geist when I get a chance to work on it again. I don't know if I want to mess with trying to make a frame that's anchored to the mouse and always visible though.

Is there any way to change the ID on the buttons, or otherwise select buttons OTHER than those used by various warrior stances. (Whenever I drop an icon on geist, it replaces a button on one of my stance bars)... Thanks in advance.

Cidrei A Fallenroot Satyr Forum posts: 21 File comments: 114 Uploads: 17	Hmm... I was almost certain I had setup up the default buttons to not have that problem. Anyway, the commands are assignx y, where x is the Geist button you want to change, and y is the ID you want to change it to. If you could take a screenshot of your Geist open with the guide on, I'd appreciate it. I'd like to figure out which buttons are conflicting.

PJizzle A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 5 File comments: 12 Uploads: 1	Great addon by the way. Would be nice to have an ability to lock the button bars so they dont move around by accident, and an option along with guide mode or something to show grids. Also your addon interferes with CTMod and URLCopy during display chat commands. Whenever typing just /geist or /gbm, your code intereferes with their global variables/function. Other commands work just finde. Would be nice to toggle a /geist config to gain a UI to control all the other options. Any adjustments to the options do not interactively update and requires /reloadUI or logout/in It also interferes with ag_UnitFrames. It blocks selection for the last party member within ag_UnitFrames. Could you investigate and perhaps have a fix? Thanks. PJ Last edited by PJizzle : 01-27-07 at 03:47 PM.

It does what I want it too, so I've not sat down and looked at what would be needed to make the changes people want. Anyone willing to, or who has already made changes to their own copy, is encouraged to upload patches that could be incorporated into future versions.

First off, I love this addon and have been using it ,or a variation of it, for probably a year now. Probably longer, but thats because there was an addon that did the same thing as this but lost support. But thats all besides the point!

Personally I would love to see, if possible, the option to scale specific buttons. Ie, have one or two buttons larger than the rest.

Just a thought

Even more sad to find that it isn't working in my current UI, I'm getting some bug that gets gobbled up by bugsack...I suspect it has to do with bartender3....is there a newer version of geist anywhere out there?

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

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.
