That's odd - I logged in as SteveKaye but it comes up as steve2. I've just registered SteveKaye on curse because I didn't want to use steve2 (I guess that is a name automatically assigned to my old wowace account due to a clash or something)
Could you please assign MinimapRange to SteveKaye on curse and is there a way to rename this account from steve2 to SteveKaye?
you could press Shift-2 ( or whatever you set the keybinding to ), to change the bar.
And Shift-1 to get back to your original bar.
Or even setup a macro with the actionbar commands ( dont know them from the top of my head tho )
The command is "/changeactionbar x" where x is the page to switch to. You can also do "/swapactionbar 1 2" to switch between pages 1 and 2 and back again with one macro. I have found these to be unreliable though. They seem to work in testing but sometimes fail in combat. This is not just with bartender - I had problems with the Blizzard default bars too.
(I've not tried it for a while though so it may have been fixed)
I used to have DAB, and one main action bar which I switched with shift + mwheeldown / up to another one, for a total of two. Now with bartender, there is a total of 6 bars, which means 4 bars I don't want, is there a way to limit it to 2 bars ?
Thanks
You could change what shift-mouse wheel up/down is bound to in the blizzard key bindings interface. The default it Previous and Next action bar. You could map them direcctly to Action Page 1 and Action Page 2.
Disclaimer: It's just a suggestion but not one that I've tried so it may or may not work. :P
Why would it be handy? It wouldn't actually modify your fight would it? My shadow priest only uses shadow spells so it's not like I would select a different spell to try and get the count up. Also, if you are dpsing you would be shooting the spells off as fast as possible anyway so it would not alter the rate at which you apply shadow spells to up the count.
The only reason that I can think of would be to decide whether to take the next rank of shadoweaving or not. For that the basic count that you get with the default UI and most other unit frame mods is fine.
I believe the mod would have to pull off a /who, which, without something like QueueWho, would fail if you got spammed too much.
I would think a fairly intelligent mod with blacklists for certain expressions that were very common in gold seller whispers would be the best solution.
You shouldn't need to do a /who. You get the unit name from the whisper event and call UnitLevel() on it?
or wouldnt that work?
UnitLevel() does not take a name as it's argument. It takes a unit id such as "player", "target" and "focus".
When you use ANY Action Bar AddOn, you obviously need to worry about your Keybindings. And no, there is no option in the Bartender Menu, its in the default Keybindings UI, just scroll down to the Bartender3 part and bind your keys there.
Seriously, i dont get why no one manages to do that on their own.
So this means that when I switch stances I have to use different numbers? When I bind 1 through + to Bar2, I lose it from Bar1, which makes sense logically, or you'd have every number trying to do multiple things. If I just leave the bindings on Bar1, I have the same problem with it still trying to do moves from bear form. How do you make it work like the default Blizzard bars where the same number does a different spell depending on your stance? It can't be how it seems to me now, because I can't believe people use 120 keys on the keyboard for all of their spells.
And I didn't manage to do it on my own because I've never had to do anything with keybindings before I got this mod.
Your first post said that you hadn't changed your keybindings from the default ones when changing from the default UI to Bartender3. That's where you went wrong you need to go to blizzard's keybinding interface find the Bartender3 section and set the keybindings for "Bartender3 Bar 1 Button X" in the same way that you have them set on blizzard's bars before. This will also unbind the blizzard default actions and will fix your problem.
Go to BarTender3.lua in your SavedVariables folder and correct the numbers in there - it's what I did. (backup first in case you break it for some reason)
Steve
What numbers do I have to change where?
I lined up the bars as close as I could in WoW then quit and changed the numbers so they aligned with the bar I wanted them to align with. If you look in the Bartender3 saved variables file you'll see something like this:
There will be more than just BAGS in the SpecialBars section and more than just bar 6 in the Bars section. Change the numbers after PosX and/or PosY to fine tune the bars.
Steve
P.S. do not forget to back the file up first otherwise you will lose it all if you accidentally remove a " or } or something.
Are StickyBars going in soon? Only thing that prevents me from using this.
StickyBars are the only reason I'm considering going to another Barmod. Seriously, I'm incapable of perfectly lining up my bars and it's making me crazy. They are 1 pixel off. 1 frickin pixel.
