ReloadUI

[sbrett]

Hello Gentlemen, I have some code here where I want to call a ReloadUI console command from script, but it's not currently working. Is there a way I can reload the UI automatically from inside a lua script? I don' t think the scripts can call macros anymore or else i'd use that.

Here is the code.

StaticPopupDialogs["Buffer Full"] = {
text = "Buffer full, please reload UI.",
button1 = "Yes",
button2 = "No",
OnAccept = function()
ReloadUI();
end,
OnCancel = function()
ReloadUI();
end,
timeout = 5,
whileDead = 1,
hideOnEscape = 1
};

Am I using the ReloadUI() syntax correctly, am I missing something? I'm not really sure what I'm doing wrong here. The timeout is supposed to fire the OnCancel, yet, I wait 5 seconds and nothing happens. Perhaps that is incorrect? Strangly enough, if I click yes on the popup dialogue, it works fine, but the cancel doesn't seem to... Any advice? Thank you.

/rl

that's all you need.

/rl isn't default ui.

ReloadUI() is correct, but it requires a hardware event.

well, is there anyway to dump the chat log buffer without having to do a reload ui or hardware event of some kind?

Logout or exit will. I'm gonna guess that's not what you'd like to hear.
