Map Error

hairy_palms · 03-06-10, 01:31 PM

Ive been using 1 Line of Lua to scale my worldmap, and it works fine, but it errors out if i try and open the map while in combat, not sure why combat would change the world map frame

code is

Code:

WorldMapFrame:HookScript("OnShow", function(self) self:SetScale(0.7) end)

and i just get an "Interface Action Failed Because of an Addon"
any ideas whats wrong from lua pros around here?

Try using this:

Code:

WorldMapFrame:SetScale(0.7)

Will that help?

just that on its own doesnt work at all, without hooking into the worldmaps onshow event.
if i change it to

Code:

WorldMapFrame:HookScript("OnShow", function() WorldMapFrame:SetScale(0.7) end)

its the same result as before, as im just calling the worldmapframe a different way.

How about this:

Code:

WorldMapFrame:HookScript("OnShow", function()
  if not InCombatLockdown() then
    WorldMapFrame:SetScale(0.7)
  end
end)

By using this, changing the scale will only happen when out of combat, but there is a chance that it will be full size in combat.
My WoW account is frozen at the moment so I can't test this.

This is what I used to use before I quit WoW, it might still work

Code:

UIPanelWindows["WorldMapFrame"] = nil
hooksecurefunc(WorldMapFrame, "Show", function(self)
	self:SetScale(0.75)
	self:EnableKeyboard(false)
	BlackoutWorld:Hide()
	WorldMapFrame:EnableMouse(false)
end)

thats what happens with my current code, full size in combat scaled out of combat

This is what I used to use before I quit WoW, it might still work

Code:

hooksecurefunc(WorldMapFrame, "Show", function(self)
	self:SetScale(0.75)
end)

gave the same result, scaling out of combat and not scaling in combat
