Broker Currency 

Thanks for the response! It seems like I might have to swap to another broker addon for more than just that reason.

Hi, I have a question about the frame that this broker addon creates. What I'm trying to do is parent a bunch of data texts to a kgpanel and have that kgpanel only show up when I mouse-over it. The problem I'm having is that when I use /fstack to check the name of the panel that your addon creates, it returns "StatBlockCore_Broker Currency". When I enter this into kgpanels, it gives me an error ('=' expected near 'Currency'). I'm guessing this is because of the space. I even looked into the lua but it looks like the frame is supposed to be called Broker_Currency but entering that into kgpanels doesn't work. Neither does BrokerCurrency. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello,

Sorry, I won't (Bazooka author here). This bug is caused by blizzard's implementation of embedded icons in fontstrings which was even worse a couple of patches ago (it didn't obey the parent frame's alpha setting at all, now at least it works if you set the alpha on the parent frame after the text / icons has already been rendered).

I tried "fixing" the issue a couple of ways, but none works 100% reliably, or would be so convoluted that it'd just cause pain for all users even if they don't use plugins with embedded icons or don't use bar transparency (cpu cycles wasted, etc). The only "reliable" fix at the moment seems to be "refreshing" the alpha setting of the bar(s) periodically every second or so, but this is so ugly that I decided not to add it to Bazooka.

Just mouse-over the bar to make it fully visible and let it fade back after you finish shopping, that should fix the icon transparency...

ps: if you happen to find another broker display that handles this correctly, drop me a note please, I'd like to check how they solved it, maybe I overlooked some simple and elegant workaround.

cheers,

Ahh okay..
Thanks for the reply, i hope the author of Bazooka will fix this problem then..

I am using Bazooka as my broker bar, and i have that on hide (only shows when i mouse-over).
And i have noticed, that the icons from the tracked currencies are being shown whenever something new happens (selling stuff, buying stuff, earning/loosing currency etc.)

This is really pissing me off since the icons are just "standing right there".
This is a small thing, i know, but it is enough for me to find another broker and i would hate to have to do that since this is by far the best Currency broker i've ever seen - except for the icon bug..

Is there a fix to it?

Kind Regards
Julian

Love this addon. Adding my +1 vote to this:
I like all my characters' ui to look as similar as possible, so having a 'preferences > default' option would be great!

Ty a lot for the great Data Broker!

Is it possible to show another column with the Actual Valor points Cap for every character ?

Ex: Mage 800/1000
Warrior 1000/1000
Paladin 0/1000

It would be wonderful

Thanks for the mod. Just what I needed to check and see which characters were close to capping out on JP/VP.

Request, option for all characters to use the same configuration.

A small request for 4.2, the "mark of the world tree" currency added with the firelands dailies

Great mod so far. I have a question/request.

Is it possible you can add an option to have it display the total amount of gold for all characters / faction on the same realm like what Titan Panel has?
