Talented is a complete replacement of the original talent window.
View all Talent trees at the same time. Play with templates, and apply them.
The overall UI may seem a little bit strange at first.
The default mode of operation is to view templates. You can choose which template to view by using the "Template" button. You can change the mode by using the "Mode" button.
Editing the "Current" template will spend talent points !
You can also Apply, Delete, Import and Export templates using the "Mode" button.
The "Option" button can be used to change several options for the addon. With "Confirm Talent" on, the addon will ask you to confirm any talent point learnt.
You select the template using the second button. There is a special template, named "Current", that can't be edited or renamed, and that correspond to your current template.
You can create template from scratch or from existing one.
Finally, when a template is selected, you can change it's name by using the editbox at the right of the second button.
There is no limit to the number of point that you can set, although you can't apply a template if you don't have enough point available.
I have used it several times to set complete talent without it ever choosing the wrong one, but no warranties or refund !
Any possibility to allow for importing of WoWHead or Blizzard Talent Calculator URLs? That'd be helpful for those who like to play with online calcs while away from the game.
This may be outside of the scope of the project, but I'd like to request it anyway!
I'd like to be able to use Talented to publish my spec, and to view others' specs.
For example, I tick a checkbox allowing other Talented users to view my spec. When they inspect me, a "Talents" tab is added to the inspect frame, which, upon clicking, will request my talent spec via an addon message and then populate a talent frame with my spec for them to view, effectively allowing you to view others' talents in realtime.
Although it might be possible, I don't want to. There's no database of talents, the trees are constructed "on the fly" when the talent window is first opened.
One feature of TalentPlanner I choose not to support also is to emulate the behavior of the tooltip. You'll see that Talented always show the tooltip for the current template. I won't change that.
If someone want's to write a module to Talented to add a database of talents for each class and/or a database of tooltip strings to simulate "real tooltips", I'd would'nt mind at all.
(It excludes looking for other's template, too. Sorry about that.)

Blizzard, yes. WoWHead, I'll have to check how they encode it, but that also seem doable.
Wow this looks nice. Importing builds like suggested would be awesome too!
A feature that pop up in my head was the ability to send and receive templates from other players. This could be really cool and helpful. It would be even more useful if you could see other classes trees though.

If not, just say so and I'll write it myself. :D
Oh man, I'd love to be able to share specs with other users of this mod or just to a chat frame. I'm so sick of people saying "my spec is 40/0/11". I mean, what did you put your 11 points into!! What would be sweet is a way to print out specs to a chat window, very multi-line that sort of ASCII's the trees :) I know, kind of out there, but a GREAT way to communicate specs. Thanks for your hard work on this project.
This addon looks great indeed. I was hoping someone was going to do one like this, so I wouldn't have to (hooray laziness). Please keep (if you implement it) viewing of other classes data and adjusted tooltips in a seperate addon, an acemodule perhaps, considering how much additional data you'd have to store :) Keep the core nice and basic. Sending/receiving builds via acecomm, at least for just your class, should be pretty painless to implement, however. Nice job on this, jerry :)

Simply made a new empty template and changed to edit mode and i get this error when i click a talent (tier 1) in the tree.
Latest patchnotes:
_ Reworked the mode menu. Much better now.
_ Added confirmation request for "delete" and "apply".
_ Can now edit current template (behaves like original version).
_ Can now import a template from the Blizzard talent calculator.
_ Made templates in "class" instead of "char" namespace.
_ Added support of standard UIPanelWindows.
_ Addded a button to clear a complete talent branch in edit mode.
_ Added open & close sounds.
_ Updates to TOC.
What I'd need still is a way to "spam" someone my template. Either addon->addon and invisible, or ideally as some form of nicely formatted text-output.

No more alt-tabbing to check builds!

I look forward to trying this out tonight!

What's the toon's class ?
Edit: fixed stupid mistake. Get 23615 and try again.
- no ace2 tag in toc :P
- dewdrop menus stays open after you close main window
- esc for closing please! :)
Thanks working fine now :-)
The only negative thing about this addon is that I spend more money on new builds than before because I switch more often, hehe. ;)
