Request: make the filter work negatively, not positively.

I would like to disable ALL gains except for those that I specifically enter into the filter. I think setting things up this way would solve the spam problem that seems to be annoying so many people.

Also, would it be possible to enable "begins to cast" when out of combat only? I find other notifications useful in combat, but "begins to cast" is definitely only needed OOC.

grr i had to disable addon.. seeing such spam in center of my screen is not good.. anyway didnt came out how to pull out any setting screen for wh.

I can't get a config, tried all slash commands I can think of...looked in rock from Fubar AND looked in Niagra...

can you add back in an Option for npc Emotes? I have relied on those for so long, in so many quests (wrangling rays) and boss fights (lurker, hydross, so many more) that I already miss it after only a day :D

thanks :)

Try /ace3 ;) The config window will have the Witchhunt Modules as option.

Seconded! Sorely missed. In fact, going the extra mile and including creature say/yell/whisper as well as emote would be freakin' awesome. *encouraging, hopeful look*

Forgive me if I misunderstood the code :p

local function giveFilter()
	filter = {
		name = L["Spell Filter"],
		type = "group",
		args = {
			filterdesc = {
				order = 0,
				type = "description",
				name = L["You can select spells to be ignored in future messages from the list below. This list is automatically filled with currently filtered spells and spells you encountered during this session."],
			},
			filters = {
				order = 1, type = "group", name = "", inline = true,
				get = function( k ) return db.filtered[k.arg] end,
				set = function( k, v ) db.filtered[k.arg] = v and v or nil end, -- do not set to false, we cleanup this way since nil values are actually removed
				args = {},
			},
		},
	}
	-- make sure we learn all filtered spells.
	for k, v in pairs(db.filtered) do
		learned[k] = true
	end
	-- fill filter args
	filterArgs = filter.args.filters.args
	for k, v in pairs( learned ) do
		giveOneFilter(k)
	end
	return filter
end

Each time the giveFilter() is called back the filter.args.filters.args is cleaned and refilled by giveOneFilter() iterations that recreate a piece of table.
Since table creation is rather expensive I feel that the display/refresh/toggle of "Spell Filter" page
become significantly slow after the filter size grows upto, say, 300 entries.
Actually it isnt that slow but one can feel the WOW screen "frozen" for 1+ sec.

Feature Request:
The way I use the Learning Mode + Spell Filter is about to trying hard to find out
some "unchecked" spells in the list consisting of mostly "checked" spells.
It's a bit tiring when the list grows big, so what I request is to make this process easier.
My suggestion is to make those newly "learned" spells in this session on the top of list;
in other words the primary sorting key is "session" and secondary sorting key is "spellID".

Hello,

any chance for WH, to get "show only enemy" option? ;)
Having screen flooded by text its not what we like most ;)

I mean "Enemy players only" :)

Glad to see that option as "is coming" :)
Keep it good work, Thanks :)

Great update, great slick interface and addon :)

Couple of suggestions for it would be to have it come preset with "pvp" and "Player" spells that would be commonly desired for seeing in the output.

Another thing perhaps I am dumb, but would it be a good idea to color code the actual types of spells being cast too. all heals one color, holy damage, shadow damage, control spells.

Just some thoughts :)

If this addon requires the Sink library, could you please mark it as such so that WowAceUpdater will automatically download it as a dependency? That might be why WH isn't working for me.

I believe to make it work automatically with WowAceUpdater you need to include this line:
## X-Embeds: Ace3, LibSink-2.0

(But don't remove the line you had because that's required by WoW's LUA code. Which of course you know. =P)

You can also include this:

## X-AceForum: 1654

And that'll include the link to this thread.

Also, it doesn't really seem to be an Optional dependency. The addon doesn't run without it. But that doesn't really affect anything of course.
