If I leave the notes in the interface/addon/cartographer folder and the side list in interface/addon folder, sitelist doesn't work for me. It says dependencie missing in the addonlist at the 'startwindow' and sitelist isn't showing ingame.
Something isn't installed properly then. Are you deleting other stuff out of the Cartographer folder? You might try one or more of the following:
- configuring WAU to automatically download dependencies
- configuring WAU to unpack addons
- telling WAU to reinstall all addons

I use the rock version of Cart. I downloaded side list and installed it to see if I could help you. For some reason, I can not find this on WAU or files.wowace.com.
I ran into the same problem, Cart Notes dependency is missing, so I removed the Cart Notes dependency from the Cart SideList TOC.
It works fine until I can find an updated version of SideList
In the Sidelist Toc file, where is shows ## RequiredDeps: Cart Notes, just delete Cart Notes from that line. This is a hack, I know, but it allows Sidelist to show.
If you do not want to edit the TOC file, then go into your preferences (edit menu--preferences) of WAU, check unpack Addons and Skip Version Check. (I personally have delete before updating check as well)Then Update all installed addons. Doing this will unpack all the addons and make your addon folder alot bigger, but things like Cart Notes will no longer be in the Cart folder.
Thanks both. The 'unpack' option worked.
Deleted Cartographer folder, installed it again with checking the unpack option. Rest of my addons I leave alone.
After that I unchecked the unpack option and updated all addons
I 'was afraid' it would update the cartographer folder 'filled' again, but that wasn't the case.
Finally its okay now. I didn't do anything with it the last 2 days cause I got tired of Cartographer :(
Sekuyo: you may want to implement a fix for those who do not unpack their addons, as it should not be required for people to do so. Not sure how to go about doing that though.
Fixed deps (thx to OrionShock for pointing that out).
As anyone who follows commits knows, I've been working on some things. I've created a new alpha release with the latest changes:
- note ordering is now deterministic (clicking the same-named note within a category now always refers to the same actual note (currently, you'd only have seen the wrong behavior if you had debugging output turned on))
- if you've bound a key to toggle the sidelist, its name appears in the config option's description
- there is a config option for showing notes' coords within the sidelist
Great, great job Sekuyo. This is a very great and nice approvement.
Easier to find the notes on the map now.
Did you also plan for the note to highlight when you click or mouseover the note in the sidelist?
Thanks again for working on this
- implement very rough note throbber to draw attention to notes on the map
when their sidelist entries are clicked. It's a work in progress that needs
polishing, but you can now at least see what note corresponds to the one
in the sidelist.
- rewrite icon path retrieval to abuse tables less
- use Strategy to get note titles (like for icon paths), particularly
necessary if you use nnTrainers, which doesn't always store a note title.
- add "pretty" name override for nnTrainers category
- alphabetically sort note categories by pretty name, not db name
- list databases by pretty name in Sidelist options
- redraw sidelist if option was toggled to show/hide a database
Changes:
- color sidelist entries the same as the notes' titles
- increase note title indent because it looks better
- fix so raid-target note icons will appear properly in sidelist
- only show sidelist notes for notes actually visible on the map
Changes:
- add option to include vendor's and trainer's type in note title shown in
sidelist
- add option to sort on vendor/trainer type or title
- fix stupid typo that prevented proper note sorting
Upon running this addon for the first time, I received the following error: Cartographer_Sidelist.lua:20: Bad argument #6 to `NewModule'. "AceDebug-2.0" is an unknown library.
That problem however, did I solve by getting Ace2. But I should think that wouldn't have been necessary, since all other addons that uses Ace are using a libs folder inside their own addon folder.
I also got Babble. But I couldn't see the reason since the addon behaved exactly the same with and without it.
- I noticed that the left and right adjustment doesn't actually takes place until a ReloadUI or a relog -
btw. how come Cartographer is listed as an optional dependency? And the textures folder, shouldn't even be there IMO. I would think it would be easy to get these icons in-game since it's standard raid-targeting icons and Cartographer already uses these.
Furthermore. I noticed you're having Ace2 and Babble-2.2 under X-Embeds. Shouldn't these also be under OptionalDeps?
Cartographer_Sidelist isn't release-quality yet; I presume (often incorrectly) that its users have all the libs they need to make it work even if I don't list anywhere the libs it uses. Once I feel it's ready, I'll polish up the deployment such that no one should have any of these problems. Until then, people will have to cope with whatever I upload or check in and basically hope it works.
About the raid icons: yes, they're already in-game, but Dewdrop (the lib used to generate and manage the sidelist entries) doesn't support "checkmarks" (since that's what allows the icon to appear beside the entry) that are only a portion of a texture. It's all or nothing.

Yes: http://code.google.com/p/sekuyo-wow/issues/detail?id=6
New upload. Changes:

- redraw sidelist if option was toggled to show/hide a database
It's just about usable now :)
And thanks a lot for the sidelist. Its really great you made it with the 'clicking'.
Changes:
- color sidelist entries the same as the notes' titles
- increase note title indent because it looks better
- fix so raid-target note icons will appear properly in sidelist
- only show sidelist notes for notes actually visible on the map
Will you put it in the WAU repo? I am looking forward the next imporvements :)
