nUI -- A full feature standalone UI replacement - Page 83

Well that stinks.

At least you have some warning and some time to plan between now and April. Let us know how it goes with the job.

I love the latest update by the way. The hud bar filling up with mana smoothly as I drink is really nice. It is soothing and relaxing vs. the jerky jumpy nature before. And I didn't know I wasn't being soothed before until I updated all of the sudden I felt better while eating and drinking.

I've got a problem with the key bindings for the Bottom Left Action (BLA) bar. BottomRight bar may have the same problem, not tried out yet.

When I go into the Blizz keybinding menu and bind a key to BLA button12 I get the following:
"CLICK nUI_MultiBarBottomLeft_Button12: LeftButton Function is Now Unbound".

I bind it anyway. Logout. Log back in. Key binding is gone.

So... do we now bind those keys from within nUI, and if so, how?

Not really a bug, but an issue that i've come accross.

I noticed it before, because it affected the button bag, but now it's moved, so thought i'd say it again.

The small bar that normally goes on top of the minimap and tells you the subzone that you are in. While you've managed to hide it, it apparently isn't "gone" (not even sure if you can do this). What this means is that there is a small invisable rectangular box above the minimap which is unclickable... Not normally a problem unless, as in the latest versions, the minimap sits just underneath some action buttons

No idea what you can do for it... but just thought i'd point it out.

Love your work!, been watching it's progress from version 0.1, although i only started using it after V2, when i was sure it was what i wanted..

Keep the work up!!! or you'll have lots of angry people after you.

P.S. I'm not old enough to worry about jobs and things like that, but i seriously hope that your work find more jobs to do or that you find another place to work.

Guess it's time to polish up the resume again... sure hope it doesn't take 14 months this time.

I'm sorry to hear that Spiel. I really do hope & pray that you keep getting regular work so that it'll on your job.

Donation on the way btw...

Thanks for the thought Jungle. And the smooth power bar is kinda cool isn't it? I wish the health bar would behave the same way. To some extend it does, but not as smoothly.

Tehryn -- yeah... this seems to be a new bug introduced by my fix to the key binding problem with the vehicle frame. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

Thanks for the kind thought Sir William, also thank you for bringing the location issue to my attention. I'll add it to the bug list and look into it.

Well... I'm at work atm, so I'm kinda stuck. You can find a copy of the resume at http://www.kscottpiel.com/documents/resume.pdf which does not include the nUI project or my current job. it's otherwise complete. I'll send you an updated one tonight, promise.

Sure you want that info open on the net ? (Addresses and stuff I mean, well guess that's the address on the top)

It doesn't bother me any -- my address has been all over the net for the better part of a decade. As well as my phone number. Anyone who wants to steal my identity is going to get a bum deal.. haha... maybe they'll improve my credit rating for me... it was 14 months of unemployment you know!

~lol~

Appreciate you looking out for me though.

~smile~

This bug has been fixed and will be in the next update.

Okay -- I have isolated the problem that is causing this, but I don't have a fix for it yet. It's a catch-22 -- with the WotLK changes to vehicles, etc., I was forced to be more aggressive in how I key bind the action buttons, but in doing so, it is overwriting the Bliz bindings and thus any changes you make in the Bliz bindings don't save. So, if I back out that change, then we go back to breaking the action button key bindings every time you enter or leave a vehicle. If I don't, then your key bindings don't save between sessions.

It looks like fate has forced my hand I now I *have* to implement my own key binding mechanism and cannot rely in the default Bliz binding system anymore.

spiel2001 · 11-21-08, 05:13 AM

Zangband -- ahead of you on this one... this bug was reported in this section night before last. As you can see two posts before yours, it's been fixed and will be in the next update. Thanks for bringing it up though.

Scott - I forwarded your resume along to the outsourcing company that I have contacts with - they are TalentScout, LLC here in Houston.

Maybe they can come across something for you!
