What addon is that?

The addon in lovswr's screenshot is nUI. The large square button window you see containing all the minimap buttons is only shown when you click a button that is in the same row as the bag icons you see in the background. There are actually five buttons there, 4 representing each bag slot, and a fifth for the button bag frame.

Yes there is an easy way to move things in nUI. Try typing "/nui movers" into the chat frame, minus the quotes of course

Looks like nUI.

That addon that adds the minimap button bag is nui. It adds custom bars to the bottom of your screen as well but the visuals of it take up a good portion of your screen so i dont use it. Altho I do use Minimap Button frame with carbonite and it does not alow the LFG button to show up. All the other minimap buttons do show (if I dont click to move minimap buttons into carbonite map.) This is the only one that dosent. I also made the change in the lua text and now it will show if i move minimap buttons into carbonite but not for minimap button frame. Any advice?

yeah, i got voted out of a party cause i cant click it, tell me, does that macro command work?
"/click MiniMapLFGFrame"

i used it while i was in the que, but not in a group, and i got the standard dungeon window.
i didnt, you know, wanna end up in a group across the other side of northrend and have to drop cause i cant use the teleport macro ! :P

Edit of edit: the macro command WORKS! use it if you dont want to separate stuff etc

I still cannot see the button no matter what I do, even if I switch to the old minimap which I cannot do because I have too many damn addon buttons to fit around the little map. The macro command does not do anything, unless that is just to teleport you to the instance. I tried using it when I wasn't grouped, I assumed it would bring up the LFG window but it did nothing. I am using the latest, 3.31 now, too.

Try adding minimap button frame. It will put all of those minimap buttons surrounding your frame into a movable customisable frame. You cant see the button when you have carbonite activated but it will work if you disable carbonite. Also once carbonite does fix this you can enable carbonite and disable under carbonite options "move minimap buttons into carbonite" and the minimap button frame will continue to work with carbonite. As mine does now see:

Does it actually say Carbonite 3.31 in the addon list? People often put the files in the wrong location when they update Carbonite and don't check that they have the new version when they start playing.

3.31 already fixes it. Carbonite does let you move, scale and set number of buttons per column for the minimap button window like what your pictures shows without that visible stuff around it.

Yes, when I logged in it said Carbonite 3.310

I did the earlier fix & the LFG was in the mini map button bag. I upgraded to Carbonite 3.31 & the LFG button is gone.

edit: Once again, I am a idiot. I see it now, just over the gold N (for North) on the visible mini map, dead center, at the bottom of the screen.

In the pic below I had been in the queue for about 2 minutes. Normally the button would show up in about 15 to 30 seconds.

Tung · 12-16-09, 10:08 AM

LFG button still not showing up for me, I tried the macro, I tried going into Carbonite LUA and typing in MiniMapLFGFrame.

Only thing I haven't tried is updating to the latest Carbonite version. Which I prefer not to because the one I'm on right now is very stable except for the fact that I can't get back into group ports.

Any other ideas?

Edit: I can't take a pic of my game because of this weird drag and snapshot thing and it alt tabs me out of WoW. Any idea on how I can change that?

In the meantime I will go windowed mode.

Same problem here using 3.3.1 and MiniMapButtonFrame and no matter what I do carbonite will not allow to see the LFG eye to be able to right click teleport to dungeon / leave dungeon.

I tested by turning off carbonite and leaving MMBF on and the eye shows so it is for sure that it is carbonite that is hiding it still.

Is there any ETA on releasing a version of carbonite that allows this to show?

Carbonite is the best I cant play with out it, but not being able to use the new teleport features is getting on my nerves.

carboniteaddon · 12-18-09, 06:32 PM

My son and I both do random dungeons each day and the button always shows up.

You would want to test it the opposite of that. Disable all other addons except Carbonite and see if the button appears. If you then enable MMBF and the problem happens, then there is a conflict between the two.

Thank you, you are correct, when i turn off all other Mini Map addons Carbonite shows the LFG eye, my bad and amazing job on this addon keep up the great work!

Hang on, if you disable all other minimap addons, it shows up, if you don't, it doesn't?

I'm starting to get a bit miffed with this, because I like my Chinchilla minimap. If this is another thing that doesn't work with Carbonite enabled... I'm gonna start looking into what I actually use it for and find alternative addons.
Sorry, but the minimap button frame already sucks the coordinates into it. If LFG doesn't work either... ugh.

The reason this would happen is they are both trying to place the button from around the mini map and it causes problems. Multiple addons attempting to do similar things (in this case position the buttons) will cause conflicts.

Is there any way to completely remove the minimap button feature from carbonite?

When i use carbonite it asks me if i want to move minimap buttons into carbonite map. I click no and i still dont see some of my minimap buttons like zoom or search. I want to be able to completely remove any carbonite scripting that has anything to do with mini map buttons. Complete removal of the minimap button feature. Any way to do that? maybe by lua scripting or something?

Love the map great work!

Gwendylyyn · 01-08-10, 07:30 PM

Thanks so much for the fix on this. Was really starting to become a small problem for me.

mute · 02-10-10, 02:34 AM

Hi,

I have this problem too. I just downloaded and installed the newest version of Carbonite and I still have no LFG dungeon eye. I keep having to hearth out of instances.

I'd love to know how to fix this. Otherwise I'm just going to have to uninstall Carbonite, which is my favourite addon.

Please let me know what I can do to help you find a solution. It's driving me crazy.

Sounds like you are still using an old version. Put your mouse over the Carbonite minimap button and make sure it says 3.31 in the tooltip.

Also disable all addons except Carbonite and test.
