Hi, I came up with an idea for a different kind of bag addon and want to try to create it myself. Basically it will display the items in your bags as a list instead of an icon grid. I am new to lua programming, but have a decent amount of experience with c/c++/objective c.

I have been looking through other bag addons and the only one which I could decipher was bBag. In this addon the blizzard item frames are reused and displayed in a single grid instead of in individual bags. I tried to make new frames for the items in my addon, but was unable to use items by clicking on them (I was trying to use the method UseContainerItem, which is protected.) Do any current bag addons create there own item frames? And if they do, how do I give these frames the same functionality as the blizzard item frames?

Sorry if this question isn't clear or the terminology is wrong, I am new to this so I might not be able to articulate the problem well.
