so here is the deal -
in WSG / AB when i am dead i am studying the map, where is efc, what node is attacked etc
but currently Time to res popup blocks my view (using Skinner btw, not sure if it is the same without it)
normal non-cartographed map has higher strata and appears on top of that "waiting for res" pop up, so you can watch the map freely.
can you please add option to raise map frame strata? thank you in advance.
sorry i fail to see the point. when talking about modification we can always appeal to the fact we can drop it totally, but i think its a bit unconstructive.
i use Cart since i like it. i use it in bg since i like the way it works on bg - group coloring, scaling and ability to turn off picture background.
so i'd better see it changed, then to stop using it completly.
ps
after a second - thank you for suggestion, actually turning off BG module was on my mind for some time already, but again, i like Cart too much =) its rather a "no hope" method, since every time i see the problem it motivates me to keep up the discussion here hehe.
Well fer what it's worth ... I'm not a developer, I'm a tweaker. If I'm asking questions or making a suggestion, it's because that's how things work when I load up, or with what I know can be downloaded. In other words, these are ideas I would try or have tried to make a problem go away. Have you tried using Visor or another frame modifier change it's strata?
And specifically in this case, I don't PvP or do the Battlegrounds, and so I don't see in my mind what the differences could be between a full-screen Cartographer map (which is what I assume you're setting it to) and a full-screen default map.

a) looks - its smaller, and more appealing
b) colored player dots with numbers of groups
it really helps =)
Make a macro out of that, and use SpellBinder or a similar utility to give it a keybind. It'll stick during a play session, but reset each time you reload.
Ah, thanks to you I've set up my system so that my full map goes to the top level and my opaque, borderless screen - my maxi-minimap - jumps to the background under the rest of my UI. I often have it up in "AlphaMap" mode when I'm travelling and it used to get in the way if I started riffling through my interface panels. Not any more! And I wouldn't have thought to work on that if you hadn't brought up the question.
Everybody wins! :)

it really messes my pvp gameplay, i cant see situation in my FR when i am dead.
at least minor feedback would be most appreciated
and btw. is it THAT HARD to code?

/script WorldMapFrame:SetFrameStrata("FULLSCREEN");

i will use this as a temporal workaround, but i still hope someone from Cart devs will look into this and make it "built in"
Everybody wins! :)
