Broker ActionMenu

Version: 3.0b

by: boloKing [More]

NOT QUITE STABLE, AND AUTHOR IS LAZY, USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!

IF SOMETHING GOES WRONG, KILL THE WTF FILES

Do feel there are too many action bars occupying your screen? Want to organize seldom usage but necessary items? Put all transit methods together with precious pets? Try menu style!

Broker_ActionMenu is a LDB launcher factory which creates user customized launchers, and they launch... popup menus!

usage :

Requires a LDB display as usual.

create a Menu Group (LDB launcher), then put your craps inside.
Drag & Drop supported.

Supported entries : companion(pet/mount), spell, item(toybox, for god's sake), macro, and equipmentset.
Extra entries : custom macro(not stored in blizzard macro interface), LDB entry(any type).

Any-click on the launcher block for the popup menu.
Any modifier key + any-click on the launcher block for config panel access.
note :

Some entries are NOT usable in combat. (Blizzard protected, as usual)
Once a macro or a equipment set is deleted, the corresponding menu entry is also removed.
Console command "/am" to bring up the config panel in interface options.
known issues :

Actions for LDB launcher/data source is restricted to "Left-Click".
The spells for accessing trade skill interface make LibDewdrop throws an error (e.g. First Aid).

3.0b
ui playaround (and me look at poweraura, which is quite meaningless...)
add hierarchy menu support
fix pet related stuff
toy box support (for ppl interested, blizzard toybox codes are inside Blizzard_PetJournal, and all you need to know is 'PlayerHasToy(itemID)', doh)

2.21
fix marco text editor
fix several UI layouts

2.2b
fix macroIcon, hopefully
fix combatpet type (still trying to acquire CD through)

2.1b
5.0.4 compatible.
fix macroIcon related functions.
fix spell indexing.
fix companion indexing.
work around the GetCompanionCooldown function. (not sure if spellID approach works, but hell..)
*better reset your spell, companion entries.

2.01
menu now anchored to cursor

2.0
4.0.1 compatible

1.2
add customizable LDB icon, label, text, and global profile support.

1.13
add fail-proof for LDB object that missing data field.

1.12
dealt with all kinds of item now, ie. equippable, usable, otherwise.
add item quantity display, but still, cooldown has higher display priority.
the 'red entry' also handles D&D now.

1.11
fixed LDB launcher locked bug.

1.1
Fix a remove menu group bug (stupid one).

1.0
Initial release

I must've found this shortly after you did, and it's absolutely perfect. Then, I was able to recommend this to "Ian" in response to this article on WoW.com. Thank you for an amazing, robust, and tremendously useful addon!

Two requests, may be you find them usefull: I would like to give each ActionMenu its own icon, I happen to have 5 ActionMenus right now and each own shows the green recycle icon.

Second, for some ActionMenus it would be great if they could be shared between all toons. May be you could make a option to an ActionMenu to have it char-specific or account-specific.

Thanks for reading, have agreat day.

First one is easy, next update maybe.

The second needs a more complicated configuration design... any suggestion?

I will add some fail-proof while iterating LDB objects. updated, try 1.13 Last edited by boloKing : 04-25-10 at 10:08 AM.*

Actually I used to create "lots" macro launchers with MacroBroker before, this addon is made to clean up my screen. As for the request, biggest problem would be executing macro over a LDB launcer, since tekkub says "Quicklaunchers should never expect a secure frame to be used, therefore actions like spellcasting are not possible.", I will not touch this part myself, not until a secure LDB framework appears. Just use them both as i do. BTW, MacroBroker uses "ChatFrameEditBox" approach to execute macros over non secure UI, look into MacroBroker\libs\TjRunSlash.lua if you're interested.

Taigen A Defias Bandit Forum posts: 3 File comments: 82 Uploads: 0	Brilliant! OMG... coolest. mod. ever. I have always wanted something like this! You ROCK! One question though... could you also make the custom macro feature stand-alone within a LDB? The reason I ask is that I already use Macro Broker but it doesn't have the cool feature of being able to make a drop-down menu. Some "launchers" I created with Macro Broker I use a lot and so I dont want them in a drop-down menu... is there a way to incorporate that into this mod so I dont have to use both?
