Know Bugs

Shows a Yellow Circle border sometimes, drives me crazy. If you know how to remove it please let me know. I have no idea what it is, slips my mind looking. Also, sometimes the Heroic Flag shows somewhere else, I haven't really looked to see what that was, I'll try to see if that is still an issue.

Issues

MAYBE I will add backdrop. I did before, but I always use kgPanels or the like to add to it myself anyhow. I may add an option to hide or show backdrop if I do add.

CHANGE LOG v 1.7 10/27/2010

Updated for Cataclysm 4.0.1. Sorry for the wait. Got a hint to show the LFD tooltip no matter where you put the minimap from BgMinimap. Thanks! Added Time.

Issues - Shows round yellow border sometimes, drives me crazy. I don't know why it does that. *hint hint* if you can give me some :P

Fixed the setpoint. Sorry! I had it fixed for a long while and now just fixed it due to my computer not working until now.

v 1.5 9/3/2010

Made it to where you rightclick minimap to open calendar
Added Pending invites notification

v 1.4.2b 7/22/2010

Made it to where the watch frame saves position now upon logging in and out per char, adding it to saved variables. Also added ingame slash

v 1.4.2 7/22/2010

Got rid of the xml error, or so I think I did.... If I didn't please report! I also got rid of the other error with the minimapcluster. Also, your character pane or other panes like spellbook should not be overlapping now! YAY!

Known issues fixed - Heroic Flag not showing. Is now showing. Ping while right clicking minimap now not doing that because I added the hover game menu button.

Cleaned up the code a bit. Made all ingame text green. Added slash command /midgethelp to display all slash commands for the minimap.

Ferous Sheer Sense of Doom Forum posts: 863 File comments: 563 Uploads: 10	Okay :P thanks I'm trying now to add styles to it, though I'm sort of pooped from making this. It took me two waking days to do it all, in addition, I'm still learning... SO yeah lol. But its been a fun learning process, and i plan to add more cool Appearance styles as well as them being ingame commands to switch (reloading UI of course). again, learning process :P But i'm getting there.

Ferous Sheer Sense of Doom Forum posts: 863 File comments: 563 Uploads: 10	Re: Fantastic Addition thank you! I'm hoping it works good 0.9 works best, scale that is, though if you modify the scaling, the edges tend to look a bit funny, but modifying the borders in the will fix that.. Idk why they shift, shakes fists trying to get the diff styles going but its being hateful. :P I got it, but, it doesn't save the skins between reloads, so I'll have to figure that one out :P Last edited by Ferous : 05-25-10 at 10:38 PM.

I'm working with 1650x1050 and scaled it to 1.1. I haven't noticed any edge blur or pixels.

I know it does, I haven't figured that out yet :P I will try to fix that issue as soon as I can, because it annoys me as well.

What do you mean clock bigger? Can you show screenshot?

Thanks.

The scale ain't saving, I will try to get it to save... And see what the problem is.

As of now, the clock scales with the scale of the minimap. Is there a way to increase the scale of the clock without changing the scale of the minimap?

It's weird because MidgetMap doesn't show a clock :P Or at least, I didn't include the code to show it, right now anyway.

Are you sure you aren't using a different addon to display the clock?

roballey A Defias Bandit Forum posts: 2 File comments: 25 Uploads: 0	Scaling I know it doesn't save right now but its really easy to open the lua and changed the scale there and save it. Thats what I did right off the bat cause I also changed placement of a few icons, and hid the tracking.
