new-question

Im new to wow and i isntalled and used few addons, now i discovered this strange mazzle. My question is if i install this what hapen with my already installed addons? For example i have bongos3 addon but i see in mazzle folder is a bongos folder too (and no bongos3, they dont use last version?) and im wonder should i remove bongos3?

Anyway u guys know a addon who let u to move on screen the mini map or the chat panel or other things who cant be moved? I can to move bars cuz i have a addon but cant the minimap and others. I quess mazzle can dot that but arent other addons too?

if you install mazzle, you should uninstall all other addons first so it can set itself up correctly. after that add them in one at a time.

bongos is used for now, but with the next patch, Bongos3 should be in it(at least i think that's what Doc said)

there are a good number of minimap mods, chinchilla, simpleminimap... there list goes on. mazzle comes with one to move the map though.

also, default chat frames are movable, just right click on the tab and select the 'Unlock' option. you can now drag and resize the frame.

I am using Bongos2 since we were giving instructions on how to edit the mazzle files to work with bongos2. I would love to find out how to edit the files to work with bongos3 instead.

chinchilla and simple minimap are the 2 most popular minimap addons. they let you resize and move the minimap, as well as change the shape and they will let you move it.

chat boxes do not need an addon to be moved, i explained how to do so in my first post in this thread.

the bag though, another with TONS of addons to change it. my personal favorite is Baggins(http://www.wowace.com/wiki/Baggins) it moves everything into nice catagories and is easy to find stuff.

another bag addon that seems to be a favorite, and i do like using, is combuctor(http://www.wowinterface.com/download...Combuctor.html).

Those are just 2 bag addons though, there are tons out there. Just look through the site and i'm sure you'll find one you like.

you can move the arrow, questhelper only hooks into tomtom to configure it. i don't use tomtom, but i have before and i know it can be moved. maybe someone else that knows how can answer. just play with the settings.

yes, mazzle can through other addons. mazzle uses the bag addon called Baggins, but i'm not sure what it uses for the minimap. as i've said before, there are plenty out there to choose from.

that is build into the game, no addon needed.

sorry, cannot be done, as far as i have heard of. only one type of tracking may be active, as it says in all tracking tooltips. using a addon to track more than one thing would be a hack, thus banning you from the game.

nope, once you have it unlocked, just left click and hold the side of the window to resize.

once again, that is a type of tracking that hunters have, but only hunters (i think.....) and you may only have 1 type of tracking enabled at once.

i'm personally a fan a FluidFrames, but if you dont want to bother with setup...
DoubleWide should do most of that just fine.

hunters can learn an ability to see other players on the minimap. not sure what level though... higher than 15. but they can only see players then. they must switch the active tracking to see something else they have learned to see on the minimap.

EDIT: stupid me, its not players SPECIFICALLY. it's all humanoids that are within the hunters minimap

there's alot of items on one window, i dont think you can make it that big and the items that small. it would be impossible to read anything. there are ways to do that though. the mod FluidFrames can resize the window, but i dont know of any to make the items in the window smaller.
