- - Hide UI automatically hide after not moving my mouse for 3 or so seconds? (https://www.wowinterface.com/forums/showthread.php?t=54642)

lua Code:

local addon = CreateFrame("Frame");
addon:RegisterEvent("PLAYER_LOGIN");
addon:RegisterEvent("PLAYER_REGEN_DISABLED");
addon:RegisterEvent("PLAYER_REGEN_ENABLED");
addon:RegisterEvent("PLAYER_STARTED_MOVING");
addon:RegisterEvent("PLAYER_STOPPED_MOVING");
 
local function wait(seconds)
  local start = os.time()
  repeat until os.time() > start + seconds
end
 
addon:SetScript("OnEvent", function(self, event, ...)
 
    if event == "PLAYER_LOGIN"
    or event == "PLAYER_REGEN_DISABLED"
    or event == "PLAYER_STOPPED_MOVING" then
        
        if not UnitAffectingCombat("player") then
            wait(3)
            if not UnitAffectingCombat("player") then
                C_Timer.After(1, UIFrameFadeOut(UIParent, 3, UIParent:GetAlpha(), 0));
            end;
        end;
    else
        UIParent:SetAlpha(1);
    end;
    
    if UnitAffectingCombat("player") then
        UIParent:SetAlpha(1);
    end;
end);
 
addon:SetScript("OnUpdate", function(self, elapsed)
 
    local speed = GetUnitSpeed("player");
    if speed ~=0 then
        UIParent:SetAlpha(1);
    else
        if GetMouseFocus() then
            if GetMouseFocus():GetName() ~= "WorldFrame" then
                UIParent:SetAlpha(1);
            else
                if not UnitAffectingCombat("player") then
                    wait(3)
                    if not UnitAffectingCombat("player") then
                        C_Timer.After(1, UIFrameFadeOut(UIParent, 3, UIParent:GetAlpha(), 0))
                    end;
                end;
            end;
        end;
    end;
    
    if UnitName("mouseover") then
        UIParent:SetAlpha(1);
    end;
end);

And in the end I basically tried inserting a wait() function that just basically didn't work out in the end. That code doesn't work and does nothing when I log in.

Why don't you just call a c_timer.after every 3 seconds and check if the mouse cursor position has changed inbetween. Ontop it should be possible to get the player facing direction and coordinates. You can check that too. If both are the same you can hide the ui if not you reset the c_timer.

that seems like it would cause problems if you were to stop to look at the world map, or any other ui panel d:

Those can all be fixed with a big If statement.

Lua Code:

if UnitAffectingCombat("Player")
    or InCombatLockdown()
    or ChatFrame1EditBox:IsShown()
    or WorldMapFrame:IsShown()
    or MailFrame:IsShown()
    or GossipFrame:IsShown()
    or GameTooltipTextLeft1:GetText()
    or UnitCastingInfo("Player")
    or UnitChannelInfo("Player")
    or UnitExists("Target") then
        addon:FadeIn();
    end;

I ended up liking what this looked like the more I worked on it, and now prefer it over my daftFrameFade (which fades frames individually) since using UIParent will "support" all addons. So I threw it up as daftUIFade. Note this one doesn't do the show-while-moving, the show-while-mouselooking, or the hide-after-not-moving-mouse stuff.

It's fantastic. Truly amazing work there, tonyis3l33t.

I tried implementing that by expanding the big if statement and merging it with MunkDev's code:

lua Code:

addon.timer = 0
addon:SetScript("OnUpdate", function(self, elapsed)
        self.timer = self.timer + elapsed
        local speed = GetUnitSpeed("player");
        local x, y = GetCursorPosition();
        if self.x ~= x 
        or self.y ~= y
        or UnitAffectingCombat("Player")
        or InCombatLockdown()
        or speed ~=0
        or UnitName("mouseover")
        or ChatFrame1EditBox:IsShown()
        or WorldMapFrame:IsShown()
        or MailFrame:IsShown()
        or GossipFrame:IsShown()
        or GameTooltipTextLeft1:GetText()
        or UnitCastingInfo("Player")
        or UnitChannelInfo("Player")
        or UnitExists("Target") then
            addon:FadeIn();
        elseif not IsMouselooking() then
            self.timer = 0
            addon:FadeOut();
        end;
        if self.timer > 5 then
            -- check mouse looking here since the cursor position is static while
            -- holding down right mouse button, also check that you're not mousing
            -- over a frame since that may not be desirable either
            if not IsMouselooking() and GetMouseFocus() == WorldFrame then
                self.x = x
                self.y = y
            end
            
            self.timer = 0
        end
end)

Needs more testing though.

How do I make the uI not appear during cutscenes? (like those in Hyjal and uldum)

ALT+Z doesn't work while the addon is loaded...
