cargBags Aurora  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 2.0
by: Cargor [More]

NOTE: This is only for the old cargBags version 1.3 and below!

cargBags_Aurora is a sample layout for cargBags which features two bags (one for inventory, one for bank) which are further divided into tabs with sub bags. The main bagpack has by default three tabs:

  • Main: divided in consumables and the rest
  • Trade: Trade goods and recipes
  • Other: holds your ammo/shards, keys and junk

Roughly based on cargBags_Pernobilis, it gives a good introduction in some custom layout options - with lots of comments.

Features
  • fades in/out when toggling the bags
  • tabbed and grouped in sub bags
  • "B" toggles your bag bar
  • custom space indicator, displayed as a status bar
  • border of empty buttons is hidden

Support for Anywhere-bags. The character switching button is located near the Close-button and a new "B"-button is added for showing the bank frame.

cargBags_Aurora Changelog
2.0
- complete rewrite with filters (we don't need another Pernobilis)

1.0.1
- cargBags_Anywhere support

1.0
- fork of cargBags_Pernobilis

Thumbs up Re: Re: Love this addon, question though!

Well that's awesome, hey man I can't understand code anyways lol.

I look forward to seeing this implimented though. I'll keep watch for updates. This is awesome, best bag replacement addon I ever saw, I use it with Sassa UI here on WoWInterface.com. I just added a few things with it. Your EXP bar would be better than what I use now, but... it doesn't do anything, as I stated in the correct forum for it earlier. I don't know why it does nothing. My UI would be almost perfect with your EXP bar. If I could get somebody to code, heck I'd make my own UI - I'm really good with Graphic Design.

I have to admit that the code of _Aurora is not very good for changing things, so it can become difficult. If I will ever finish the new cargBags, things will get a lot easier

1) Columns: They are the second arguments in the two functions Aurora_Create_Frame in aurora.lua - for the bags in line 138 and for the bank in line 146. Just change the 8 / 12 to whatever you like.

2) Spacing: This is a lot more complicated, because I did not use a settings variable for it like in _Pernobilis, but hardcoded it. I'm using 38 as a fixed value (a button size of 37 + spacing of 1) in the positioning code and you have to change it on multiple different lines. It's basically every 38 you can find in the code
in aurora.lua : lines 61, 62 and 74
in mainframe.lua line 204

3) font: The code of the headers is in aurora.lua on lines 100-103 and for the tabs in mainframe.lua on 139. They both use the default font object GameFontHighlightSmall. You can change it to another or use your own fonts with the function :SetFont(font, size, flags).

@Rammoth: Yeah, it makes sense and I already thought about changing this But I can't give you any code, because it is a lot more complicated and I have to see it for myself. Sorry, can't give any ETA, because I got a lot of other things to do.

However, I have a couple of questions:

1) Is there a way to increase the number of columns (indirectly widening both the bag and bank frames)?

2) Is there a way to increase the spacing between the content icons within the bag?

3) Is there a way I can change the font of the tab text and the headers of each type of filter (Consumables, Main, etc)?

Thanks in advance, I have looked through the code and I can't find it anyways...just pointers to column, etc.

Arrow Fixed but one problem.

Well I don't know what I did, but it works fine now, no LUA error, and it works.

Only one thing bothers me, and I have no idea why it does, or if it's fixable. Which is why I have to tell you first, to see if it is.

When I switch tabs by clicking on them, it pops around and gets bigger. Why can't it stay a certain size, and just have a button with an arrow on it, that will make it go to the next page of items in that section or tab? That would be great if that were possible. Does what I'm saying make sense?


Thanks

BugSack is the most popular error addon.

DamnBlizzardErrorFrames is a lot simpler one which I am currently using.

And then just select the whole error message, copy (Ctrl + C) and paste ( Ctrl + V) it here.

No I cannot do that, I get LUA Errors when I use addons that aren't up to date with the patch 3.3.0, and the LUA Errors slow my game down, and cause ridiculous lag for me. So I cannot use it unless it's updated. I'd show you the Error but I don't know how to copy and paste it.

I won't do just a simple toc-update, so it has the correct version number - you can check "Load out of date addons" in your addon list in WoW to use these older addons - there are a lot addons which still work with 3.3, but are not marked as up-to-date.

I'd love to see this addon updated to 3.3.0 as well. It's not usable because it's not compatible with patch 3.3.0.

You can move it while holding down the Alt-key and dragging the backdrop. Sorry, forgot to mention it in the description :/

This addon is lua-config only and there are no GUI options planned in the future. But you didn't mention all of your "basic features", only scaling - and this is adressed in the comment directly underneath your post.
