I'm having a bit of a minor problem. Sometimes, if I move the mouse away from autobar at the right angle and speed, the popup portion of a button stays popped up, and remains so until I mouseover the button again. Here are pictures!
*snip snip, no huge quotes here*
Any idea what's causing this and how I can fix it? It's not majorly breaking, or anything, but it is mildly annoying. Failing that, could there be (or is there) an option to only display a button's popup when a modifier key is held?
Thanks :)
That macro should put you in cat form if you aren't in cat form. The second part of it should read
; [nostealth] Prowl
which would then put you into stealth.
ability to lock popup untill modifier key is held down sounds nice, would go well with my " hidden untill modifier" tooltips.
first of all, autobar is a great addons, thanks for it :)
but now i have a minor problem with no solution.
since a few time got a "bug" in autobar.
Whenever i turn the mouse over the autobar icons, they turn into a black square
Does anyone know what happened or got a solution?
Hi,
I've got the black button thingy too,
i believe this has something to do with the combination of cycircled an autobar.
when i start wow everthing works fine, after a while, haven't found anything special that triggers it, the black boxes appear only for the mainbar, not the popups.
when changing the cycircled skin at this point the buttons work fine for a time.
maybe this has something to do with autobars ability to show different button layouts, since there seems to be none specified when cycircled is used, maybe you reset this layout for the mainbuttons at some time?
i also have the black button problem, if i go into cycircled and change styles it goes back to normal but within a few minutes it is back to going black
but i have an even bigger problem
r72213 works fine, but any version after that i just cannot enter the gameworld the blue bar fills up the music changes but the loading background stays up and then wow.exe takes up 100% cpu and stays like it until i manually end the process.
i disabled all addons deleted my wtf folder and any version after r72213 i just cannot get to work on my system and i am not skilled enough to understand the changes that happened going up to the next version and why it should lock up wow.
any help would be much appreciated, i was going to try commenting out some code to see where it was getting stuck but i haven't got a clue where to start.
...I've got the black button thingy too,

All right then we have a suspect. If you have the black button thing is it because you also use cyCircled? Does anyone have black buttons without cyCircled?

Is this button supposed to cause my druid to go to Cat form then immediately into Prowl mode?...
No. Cat form activates gcd so u need to click twice if you are not in cat yet.
Only coming OUT of a form is instant. So for instance if you are in bear you can come out of bear (no gcd) and instantly go cat, which triggers gcd.

could you reenable the possibility to drag the bars out of the window? maybe with as option to activate before. I like to have the bar on the right side beginning at the mid of my window, this seems to be impossible now, or did I miss something?
You seemed to have missed updating AutoBar or if you didnt you set Clamped to screen to true. Clamped to screen is an option you need to activate and the default is off.

Popup on shift is on the ToDo list. I have test code (AutoBarTest on the SVN) to do it but it suffers from this exact flaw. There are ways to leave a popup open if you release the key at the wrong time etc.

No it is also designed to toggle stealth mode. The 2nd part in fact is simply Prowl and not as reported.

Sounds like an infinite loop or something similarly catastrophic. Please follow the debug instructions at http://code.google.com/p/autobar/wiki/FAQ carefully. If you want to you can also PM me your saved variable file for AutoBar so I can take a look at it.

Just tried it out with cyCircled dissabled. I no longer get the black button, however, theres no highlight on the button upon mouseover. Again this is just on the main bar, popups are ok.
Well it is official, the black buttons are a cyCircled issue. I am not fixing it. Instead, as soon as Macro Buttons are in decent shape I am switching to ButtonFacade. ButtonFacade is on track to replace cyCircled anyway so this just hastens the process for AutoBar.

Works for me, i only use cyCircled for AutoBar and TrinityBars anyway. Once you get rid of cycircled sopport i should be able to use both without any conflicts.

Seems to me theres more to it thou...
Im using cycircled and autobar without any hint of "black buttons"..
Thats good. Who knows what the actual interraction is. But this is true: black buttons only happen with cyCircled and go away without it. Even with cyCircled they are not guaranteed to happen.

Okay, great to hear :D Like I said, it's mildly annoying, but, manageable.

Ahh, I got confused as to what he was looking for.
Toadkiller, is support already there for ButtonFacade?If I install it from the beta page will it work yet?
No I need to finish the macro stuff im working on first then ill do ButtonFacade. jjSheets promised ButtonFacade docs by this weekend as well. So probably this weekend sometime ill start on it.
First let me say that AutoBar is my single favorite addon. I cant imagine wow without it.
For over a week now my autobar is in a single location for all of my characters. I have to relocate it for each character. Is this a known issue or is there a known "fix" that I have missed?
i just 2x click the icon on my fubar and get the "old" config window
perhaps we are confusing different things.. double clicking brings up the old fubar config.. im looking for even older... it was the separate LoD module. perhaps references have been deleted for good? c'est la vie

It does not seem able to do this anymore.. at least I am unable to get it so. Just the waterfall :(
