LDBObject error

[zigmund555]

I'm trying to make an LibDataBroker window for my interface.

I created an artframe, added Base frame, added LDBObject. The package explorer window gives a red line with the message "LDBObject error".

I thought I probably hadn't loaded the library, so I made a folder, added the LibDataBroker-1.1.lua file and made a .toc to load it. It doesn't show up on the loading screen as an option however.

Any thoughts on what I'm missing?

LibDataBroker was added in the latest svn-versions to RDX itself i think.

Just a guess: did you select the LDB-Object to be shown ?
I was confused with this myself when i first tried the ldb-stuff in rdx, "normal" ldb-display-addons sort the objects into the frames by themself, but in rdx you have to specify wich ldb-object it should display. f.ex. you add a ldb-object feature to your artframe and select "oRA2" as the object to be displayed.

[zigmund555]

I bet that's it. I didn't tell it which broker object to display.

I'm playing with the minimap and LDB objects, but I can't figure out how to make the icon for the dungeon finder, for teleporting to/from the dungeon and whatnot.

[Brainn]

you have to add a Minimap Button feature to your art-frame and select "MinimapLFGFrame" from the dropdown. there seem to be some problems with the frame-levels, if you place the lfg-button on top of the minimap it does not get the mouseover when both elements (minimap button and minimap) are set to owner: base. if you set the owner of the minimap-button feature to "decor" it works on top of the minimap.

[horse21]

Was that added in a recent version? I'm using '7.4.0_rc2a' right now

[Brainn]

im not sure if it is in that version, im using svn-releases, but its not in for long.

The last version is in SVN or in the tab beta of the current version.

I put back beta. The last version is
7.4.0 beta2

<[string "-- ArtFrame: test:af_LDB..."]:29>

I need to see the copiled code of your artframe :
- activate store compiled code from the menu debug/performance
- from the repository, select your artframe, right click see compiled code.

line 29

Or do you know on which LDB, the problem hapen?

[zigmund555]

Maybe it's zomgbuffs?? I'm not using another LDB addon, but it is hooked to my minimap, which is simpleminimap. I'll play around with it more.

edit: Hmm.. I kept having RDX Minimap problems, but it turns out I didn't have the Media Pack installed. Installed that.
Everything seems to be playing well with RDX Minimap, even Carbonite installed. If I close my RDX Minimap and enable simple minimap sometimes it bugs my LDB frame.

No it is coming from skada.

I will download the addons and make some tests

[zigmund555]

Hmm..

Well I could dump Skada, because its threat module isn't working that well for me anyway.

RDX Damage Meters didn't seem to combine pets + owners well last time I tested it (some months ago), but neither does Skada as far as I can tell.

I could play around with RDX Damage Meters again and probably dump Skada.
