The official HandyNotes release is out! It is version 1.2.0 so there should be no confusion when you upgrade. And please do go back to the official HandyNotes! I hope this addon helped you out.
All current work on the tempfix is halted.
This is a temporary patch for HandyNotes to work around the problems I was seeing with WoW patch 4.0.3a. The original HandyNotes 1.1.6 is available on Curse and WowInterface.
Cladhaire's changes to TomTom were incorporated so that Astrolabe 1.0 is used. This means that additional HandyNotes addons still need to be fixed separately if they call Astrolabe 0.4 themselves (see below.) If it works, Cladhaire deserves all the credit.
There is another attempt at a workaround HandyNotes (fanupdate) while it didn't solve my problem it should still work with the other HandyNotes addons as it was using Astrolabe-0.4 last I checked.
This is not intended as a fork in the codebase, just a workaround until the base addon is updated by the author.
Use /handynotes to access options.
You can add notes to the maps in 3 ways:

Are you using other HandyNotes addons and if so which ones? I'll go ahead and post a version with the whole compat section copied over if that's what it takes but it shouldn't be needed. sigh

Edit: I fixed it! I modified HandyNotes_Mailboxes.lua (using your revised version as the base) by followed Toran's instructions on his blog and pasted in the ComputeDistance function from your HandyNotes.lua (so it starts like this)
Not sure why it didn't work the way you did it, but it works now!

Edit: You have the right one.
I think the latest HandyNotes_Mailboxes is over at wowace - make sure you are using that one. I haven't tested, just offering it up as a possible solution.

I can't duplicate it! It acts as if HandyNotes is not updated. Do me a favor and check HandyNotes.lua (from HandyNotes directory) and see if at line 85 the function is defined Code:
function compat:ComputeDistance(c1,z1,x1,y1,c2,z2,x2,y2) |

HandyNotes_Mailboxes.lua line 188: attempt to call method 'ComputeDistance' (a nil value) It didn't delete the old one though. I installed the updated HandyNotes 1.16b and HandyNotes_Mailboxes above.

I've uploaded a new release of HandyNotes (tempfix) 1.16b with the added compat call to support HandyNotes_Mailboxes (and general Astrolabe cleanup.) added HandyNotes_Mailboxes (tempfix) so you don't have to type out the changes yourselves. Please let me know if it works or causes problems (I don't normally use it since my city maps become flooded in mailbox icons.)

I really appreciate the input everyone especially since there were no comments the first couple of days. I was afraid it only worked for me. Sariktor, thanks so much for the work pointing out the fixes in the additional HandyNotes addons (I don't use them myself so I couldn't test reliably.)
It shouldn't be necessary to add the whole compat section, just reference it in the other addons. change Code:
local HandyNotes = LibStub("AceAddon-3.0"):GetAddon("HandyNotes") local Astrolabe = DongleStub("Astrolabe-0.4") Code:
local HandyNotes = LibStub("AceAddon-3.0"):GetAddon("HandyNotes") local compat = {} compat = HandyNotes.compat Then make the standard Code:
Astrolabe:GetCurrentPlayerPosition() Code:
compat:GetCurrentPlayerPosition() Any other Astrolabe calls in the addons will also need to be updated. handynotes_mailboxes has an additional call to Astrolabe:ComputeDistance, (which isn't added in the compat functions yet.) I'll try to work on this tonight or tomorrow once server maintenance is over. And sorry for the delay in responding folks, I got Isharra to level 85, another to 83 and two more to level 82 since I posted this. I need to kick my WoWInterface settings, I'm not receiving the email notifications I'm supposed to get when people leave a comment.

I'm still having a problem specific to (it seems) handynotes_mailboxes, and only in the main cities. When I click on a mailbox, it deletes my previously marked mailbox and adds the new one. Any idea how to fix this bug?

Oh.. it's missing the workaround... Open HandyNotes_SpecialNPCsEtc\HandyNotes_SpecialNPCsEtc.lua and add this near the top. Code:
local compat = {} HandyNotes.compat = compat do local orig = GetCurrentMapAreaID() -- Create a lookup table from mapID to c,z pairs local mapcz = {} for cid, zlist in ipairs{GetMapContinents()} do for zid, mapid in ipairs{GetMapZones(cid)} do SetMapZoom(cid, zid) local mapid = GetCurrentMapAreaID() mapcz[mapid] = {cid, zid} end end SetMapByID(orig) -- Speed up minimap updates Astrolabe.MinimapUpdateTime = 0.1 -- This function takes the mapID return from the Astrolabe function -- and converts it to a c,z,x,y tuple function compat:GetCurrentPlayerPosition() local map, floor, x, y = Astrolabe:GetCurrentPlayerPosition() local cz = mapcz[map] if cz then local c, z = unpack(cz) return c, z, x, y end end function compat:GetCurrentPlayerCoords() local map, floor, x, y = Astrolabe:GetCurrentPlayerPosition() return x, y end function compat:GetDirectionToIcon(...) return Astrolabe:GetDirectionToIcon(...) end function compat:GetDistanceToIcon(...) return Astrolabe:GetDistanceToIcon(...) end function compat:RemoveIconFromMinimap(...) return Astrolabe:RemoveIconFromMinimap(...) end function compat:IsIconOnEdge(...) return Astrolabe:IsIconOnEdge(...) end function compat:PlaceIconOnMinimap(icon, c, z, x, y) local mapId = Astrolabe:GetMapID(c, z) local floors = Astrolabe:GetNumFloors(mapId) local floor = floors == 0 and 0 or 1 return Astrolabe:PlaceIconOnMinimap(icon, mapId, floor, x, y) end function compat:PlaceIconOnWorldMap(frame, icon, c, z, x, y) local mapId = Astrolabe:GetMapID(c, z) local floors = Astrolabe:GetNumFloors(mapId) local floor = floors == 0 and 0 or 1 return Astrolabe:PlaceIconOnWorldMap(frame, icon, mapId, floor, x, y) end end |

The addon i'm using with handy notes is "Handy notes Special Npc etc" found at http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/handynotes_specialnpcsetc.aspx Was using this addon cause it seemed to do the work all the others did just all wrapped up into 1. Again any help would be appreciated.
