SetParent("UIParent")

[Kyrgune]

Having an issue with an addon I have been trying to keep going and of course with 10.0 like many others I have run into an issue. I am by no means an lua expert so I am looking for a little help if an easy fix is possible.

button:SetParent("UIParent")

The script up above is on line 769 and is throwing errors and not letting the addon to load to it's full potential. If I comment out the line the buttons do show up but they don't do anything.

The addon is ShardAce Cataclysm which is on this website. I know there is alot of left overs in the lua and it's a bit messy but it has worked until 10.0.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Argument should be object, but now that's string. Replace this line of code to:

button:SetParent(UIParent)

I did try that before but it just works just the same as if I would comment out the line. The buttons show up but they don't do what they are supposed to do like summon pets etc.

The buttons are supposed to cast a spell according to spellids. It doesn't look like they have changed according to wowhead.

Does it show any errors ?

Or just doesn't seem to work ?

Have you got an error report addon like buggrabber/bugsack ?

No errors show up except for the one I listed, but changing that line did not work.

Blizzard changed how the OnClick script works for SecureActionButtons in Dragon Flight. You need to register both up and down events through Button:RegisterForClicks() for it to work. Which one the handler uses is based on the user's ActionButtonUseKeyDown CVar setting.

Thankyou for the reply, this is what it looks like at the moment. I tried to change the "AnyUp" to different mouse settings on the RegisterForClicks part but couldn't get it to work. I am assuming this is the chunk that needs to be fixed. Any ideas on what do do here?



self.buttons[1]:RegisterForClicks("AnyUp")
self.buttons[1]:SetAttribute("_onclick", [[

if FlyOutButtonsOpen then
for i, button in ipairs(MenuButtons) do
button:Hide()
end
FlyOutButtonsOpen = false
else

for i, button in ipairs(MenuButtons) do
button:Show()
end
FlyOutButtonsOpen = true
end
]])


Again thanks everyone for their help! I really do appreciate it.

For example, you need to call :RegisterForClicks("AnyUp","AnyDown") on all of your buttons that inherit from SecureActionButtonTemplate. The link I posted previously has all of the button event options. Whichever buttons you choose, you need both up and down events for it.

for _, tbl in ipairs({self.buttons, self.firstrow, self.secondrow, self.thirdrow, self.forthrow}) do
    for _, button in ipairs(tbl) do button:RegisterForClicks("AnyUp", "AnyDown") end
end

Thankyou, that worked.
