Trainer UI Interface

[Ookami.kun]

Sorry for being vague in the subject heading, but I was unsure how to word my request.

Does anyone know of a mod that permanently enables certain filters when you visit a trainer. When I visit a trainer, it allows me to see all the talents/abilities that I can learn, but when I don't want to see is the stuff that I learned back at level 10 or 100 for professions, I only want to see what I can learn now or in the future (i.e. green or red only). Blizz gives you an ability to filter out the "gray" abilities/talents, but if I select to filter those, close the UI, then reopen it the gray items are listed again. Anyone have a clue on this predicament? Thanks.

think this already is an option in WoW ... at the t op of the trainer bar you can filter out what you want to see ... catalogs and things you don´t know and things you already know etc.

Thanks, and you're right, it does allow you to select or deselect already learned, current, and future talents/abilities. The problem I have is that after selecting the filter(s) you want once you close the UI and then reopen it you have to reselect the specific filters again. I'd like it so that once specific filters are selected they stay selected even after closing the UI. I just find it annoying that once I learn a talent/ability I still have to wade through the early level ones to get to the current level ones... i.e. I don't want to wade through Level 10-70 talents to get to level 71+. There is just no need for them to be viewable after you learn them. This of course is just me.

TrainerSkills does that, I think. And more. A lot more. Give this mod a whorl.

Automaton has it too

Looking at this thread again, I realize that I've never had to reselect not to show already known abilities. Looking in my WTF folder, Blizzard saved your selection to a saved variables file, so that it is remembered between sessions and applied account-wide. Mine says:

TRAINER_FILTER_AVAILABLE = 1
TRAINER_FILTER_UNAVAILABLE = 1
TRAINER_FILTER_USED = 0

Are you certain that you don't have anything else interfering with this function? Do you get the same behavior with all addons disabled?

Seerah, I think (not 100% certain) that the problem is pretty much the abilty to block out skills they skipped over, because they weren't useful to them in one way or another.

Example: You are level 300 LW and are a Druid. You aren't using LW to make money at lower levels, nor do you intend to offer it in a broad sense. You only want the necessary skills to level up farther, and the ability to filter those skills that will not have a chance to skill you up (grey), or be useful to your class specifically (mail).

I may be wrong, but I think this is more specifically what the OP is looking for. The default Blizzard filters can't do this, unfortunately.

Yes, you are right in a sense about your example, though for that issue I have my profession mod (Skillet) set to not show gray items when I open it to craft. My issue stems more towards the trainer itself. When you go to learn a new class ability or in this case a profession skill, at say 300... you get 3 "green" items that opened up for you to learn when you reached 300. What I'm looking for is a way to hide, permanently via the trainer UI, the gray items you already learned from 1-295, so all you see is the "green" present learn able items and the "red" future learn able items when you hit 305+. Blizzard has in the trainer UI a way to deselect the "gray" items already learned, but for some reason it will only stay deselected during that use of the UI. If I close it and reopen it, the "gray" items show up again. I want it so that they stay permanently hidden all the time for each session when I open up the trainer UI and never have to deselect the check box again for it, though I'm hoping from what khurzog and Seerah have suggested that either of those two ideas will work, I just need to test them out and see.

After reading khurzog's post about Automaton I'm beginning to think that may be the case, I downloaded it a while back to make it easier to accept and turn in repeatable quests like in AV and I'm wondering if I set something in that by accident that is the cause for this. I'm going to take a look when I log in later and see. Just in case, what saved variables file did you look into for the above settings in case I can't find the problem in Automaton and want to manually change it in the saved file. Thanks.
