Khaos Standalone  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 2.4.3
by: Bob9000 [More]

This is a small update for WotLK compatibility, since the project has been declared "dead" by its author. See the original version here. All libraries are embedded. If you have an older version of FireTree installed, it may break this, so please remove/disable it or replace it with the one embedded here.

Description
Khaos is a universal configuration registration system and GUI.

Configurations
Khaos allows you to create configurations for addons or addon-groups. These configurations can then be changed on the fly or set as default on a per character basis. You can use a single configuration for as many or as few characters as you like. You can even set up class or server configurations.

Addon Management
The AddOns list in the middle column can be used to enable or disable addons without having to log out and go to the character screen addon config. Changing their status will require a ReloadUI to update.

Bellow the AddOns list is a number of addon categories that can contain configuration screens for registered addons. For example, Improved Error Frame shows up under the Debug category header. Clicking on an addon name brings up its configuration options in the right column panel. Checking or unchecking the addon name enables or disables the addon. This is a soft disable that still loads the addon, but sets all the options to the disabled settings. This allows you to disable addons in a configuration and enable them in another without having to reload when swapping. Right-clicking the addon name brings up a menu with an option to reset all of that addons options to their default value.

Addon Options
When browsing an addons options you can scroll with the scroll bar or mouse wheel. There is also a table of contents menu above the window that lets you skip to individual header sections or the bottom.

User Skill Levels
Khaos also has an advanced option level. Beginners are freed from the burden of worrying about configurations and can just set simple addon options, while advanced users can access the configuration editor and special options designated by each addons. For example, some addons may add in debug options and set them as difficulty=2, so that they only show to users set to see all options. Can't find an option you know exists? Check the advanced options.

Configuration Import/Export
The import/export capabilities are currently unavailable. Hopefully they will be working soon to allow you to copy and paste entire or partial addon configurations for easy sharing or transferring between computers.

Embedded Libraries
Khaos is a major part of the Cosmos UI. However, many of those libraries are now embeddable. Khaos doesn't require all of Cosmos to run and thus the necessary libs have been embedded so that you can use Khaos without Cosmos. Of course the easiest way to update Khaos is still to use the Cosmos Patcher application to update it in place, but Cosmos distributes the dependent version of Khaos.

This version of Khaos contains:
SeaPrint, SeaString, SeaTable, SeaHooks, Chronos, DynamicPopup and FireTree.

Great job!

A question, and a request:

Question: I see that you have Chronos imbedded. Karl has updated Chronos. Is it OK to use the un-imbedded version of the updated Chronos, or should that be disabled/removed while using your version of Khaos?

Request: The main reason I need Khaos is because it is a dependency of TooltipsComplete (which provides an EXTREMELY useful "Edit Label" function, allowing short notes to appear in the game tooltip for any player or NPC). TooltipsComplete DOES work and without throwing any visible errors, at least as far as I could see with the short tests I just completed. However, TooltipsComplete is causing a taint/action blocked error whenever the "Set Focus" command is attempted via the dropdown menu from the target frame. Might it be possible for you to have a look at TooltipsComplete to work around this error? It's technically a Blizzard error, which occurs when any addon includes a dropdown menu longer than 18 items.

The only displayed error seems to be this, which occurs any time something is moused over:
Interface\FrameXML\GameTooltip.lua:124
attempt to index local 'self' (a nil value)

I understand that Tooltips might be beyond the scope of your intent here.

Thanks again for updating Khaos!

I don't think you need "Fan Update", in the title. Khaos Standalone is enough especially if you are taking over development of Khaos.
