InfoPanel

Version: 20.10.31

by: Aezay [More]

InfoPanel
InfoPanel is a lightweight information panel that will place itself in the edge of the screen, it slightly resembles other addons such as Titan Panel or FuBar, but I've tried to keep it simple.
It supports plugins which each will add different kind of information to the bar for quick review during combat without having to bring up other kind of interface.

The slash command for this addon is "/ip".

Why Use InfoPanel?
With all the other major panel mods out there, you might wonder why even bother with this addon over the others which has more options and more plugins.
Well, this one was made with the thought of being lightweight in mind.
If you only have the use for a few plugins for your panel, such as one showing time, durability and your money. This addon is ideal, and it hardly takes any resources.

User Friendliness & Settings
As this is an early release, I have not put in much time to improve the user friendliness, I run WoW with action bar and unit frame mods,
so if you use the normal blizzard UI, there might be some problems with those frames overlapping InfoPanel.

Setting up InfoPanel is quite limited in this early release, but to adjust the order in which the plugins appear, you have to edit the "Plugins.xml" file and adjust the order of the plugins as you prefer to have them show.
If you wish to disable some of the plugins, simply just remove or comment out its entry in this file.

Included Plugins (16)
Durability
- Lists the current condition of your gear, both equipped and bagged gear.

Bag
- Keeps track of the amount of free bag space.

Money
- This plugin will always show the amount of gold you have on you.

Zone

Clock

InfoPanel Changes | 2009 Apr 02
- Bag: Cleaned up and simplyfied the code.
- Clock: Added a way to easily edit the code to change the format to a 12 hour clock. Just look for "show24HourClock" at the top of the Lua file and change it from true to false.
- SpellPower: Now includes the constant buffs "Heroism/Bloodlust" and "Wrath of Air Totem" into the shown haste. Does not include "Improved Moonkin Form" or "Retribution Aura" with the "Swift Retribution" talent, because they are talents and the people giving those auras might not have it.

- Honor: The bar text will now show your total honor points, instead of how much honor you earned today.
- Zone: Will now show coordinates in instances which has them, instead of just assuming there are none available.
- Zone: Clicking this, will again open up the world map.
- Clock: Clicking on the clock will now open the in game calendar.

InfoPanel Changes | 2008 Jun 29
- Performance: You now have to hold down the shift key to get info about addon memory usage, but it will now show all your addons, instead of just the 6 highest memory hogs.
- XP: Will now show a neat splash text congratulating you on leveling :D
- XP: Now checks "MAX_PLAYER_LEVEL" instead of just 70, this is to make sure an update isn't required for the next expansion.

Aezay A Theradrim Guardian Forum posts: 66 File comments: 737 Uploads: 18	I've taken a summer hiatus from WoW, although I do not know when and if I even do come back. I'll try and answer some of the latest questions. Some time ago I posted that this project would be discontinued, and I might convert them into databrokers. After further considerations, I've decided that InfoPanel in its current state suits my needs, and that I don't really gain anything personally from converting them to databrokers, so that probably wont happen. rossman The addon in its current state only supports one right aligned plugin. runamonk Feel free to release your LBD plugins, but please mark the code written by me using a code comment, a note in a readme file or something similar. Here is a little optimisation that I made in an unreleased version of this addon. You can replace all the events used in the durability plugin with just UPDATE_INVENTORY_DURABILITY.

runamonk A Theradrim Guardian Forum posts: 61 File comments: 40 Uploads: 3	I have uploaded a new version. This version only has the mouse enabled where necessary (where there are clicking cells (Friends, Guild and Mount). This way the tooltips are properly released (freeing up the memory instead of just continuing to build).

runamonk A Theradrim Guardian Forum posts: 61 File comments: 40 Uploads: 3	Oh Rossman I cannot upload them to WoWInterface at this time. That really wouldn't be fair to Az as he wrote all the base code for his plugins. If I get word back from him that it's okay that I branch off a version of my own I'll upload them to my own area. I cannot put them into the optional files because the total size is around 100k and they only allow a max size of 64k, which is why I opted for my own domain to use to host them for now.

runamonk A Theradrim Guardian Forum posts: 61 File comments: 40 Uploads: 3	I have modified all the plugins that I currently use to be LDB aware. I have modified: Clock Durability Melee Stats Caster Stats Friends (Displays your friends who are online) Guild (Displays people who are currently online, location, notes, guild motd etc) Location Mail (Simple new mail notification, audible and visible notification). Money Mount (Lists all epic mounts and epic flyers, if neither exist it will list all ground mounts and normal flyers, does not currently detect spell based mounts (druids). It also has a binding you can set to launch a random mount depending on the area you are in. It will launch a flyer if you are in an area that allows flying etc.) Performance XP Included is a dependent shared library as well. This contains all the functions Az created (and a couple I have written) to do misc stuff and both the LDB and QTip (tooltip) libraries. Some of the plugins will look a little different or maybe work a bit different, I did change some to be specific to my needs in look and feel. All have icons specified (including the new ones I created). In any case I am fixing issues as I find them but so far the transition seems to be fairly trouble free. I am currently using them all with Chocolate Bar, which allows you to move them around and place them on a bar etc. It takes care of a lot of the original issues that Az didn't have time to fix and I didn't care too haha. If you want to try them out you can download them from: http://www.moirai.net/public/wow/mnkInfoPanelLDBs.zip Thanks a bunch Az, awesome base code for all these plugins.

So one is ontop of the other. Anyone else have this issue? I know the author is not supporting this but was hoping someone would have an answer. Thanks

Well, crap. Guess I should read comments more, but InfoPanel just WORKS for me, so I haven't kept up.

But I guess I will move towards databrokers too now. Maybe.
Last time I tried it, I had issues with minimapbuttonframe, which I use for addons that didn't support LDB launchers. That, and LDB launchers weren't easily hidden with a simple little mod. But maybe things have changed.

Either way, InfoPanel is (was) a great addon. One of the few things enabled on all my toons with no configuration performed.

This is my favorite addon. It's so lightweight and shows everything. Would love to see these as databrokers if you decide to discontinue.

Aezay A Theradrim Guardian Forum posts: 66 File comments: 737 Uploads: 18	This project started as the means of getting rid of TitanPanel, I just found it too huge for my liking, and to that I succeeded. But I never really intended in making something that I would keep on developing, only something that would suit my needs. I decided to release it though, as others might enjoy it as a lightweight alternative too. Been thinking about migrating over to databrokers for a bit now, that seems a bit more useful than trying to keep my own plugin system alive, which has a much lower user base compared. So in other words, you might consider this addon + plugins discontinued. Although you might end up seeing some of the plugins as databrokers, nothing has been decided yet.

I whipped up a couple plugins for friends and guilds. I just changed them both around a bit so they use the proper events instead of always polling the guild and friend lists for updates. You can also click icons to open and close the friend/guild forms.

If you want to try them out, I've put it up so you can grab. Just save the file to your plugins folder and add:
<Script file="Plugins\Friends.lua"/>
<Script file="Plugins\Guild.lua"/>

to your plugins.xml file.

Great work m8 keep it up
