ChocolateBar (Broker Display)

Version: v3/13

by: yess [More]

ChocolateBar is a sweet display addon for broker plugins
Basically its a Titan-panel or Fubar replacement.

Any data broker addon you have will be put on a pice of chocolate and together they create a chocolate bar on the top of your screen.

Main Features

* Easy config, simply drag some chocolate and drop points will show. The idea is to easily get rid of a plugin or disable the text. See pics.
* Load-on-demand options, and small memory footprint.* Multiple bars - top or bottom as many as you want.
* Move bars anywhere you want.
* More Chocolate - a broker plugin to show a second bar that will autohide again. Great for launchers or other plugins you don't need visible all the time
* Support for icon colors and coordinates like used by TomTom

Options for:
* Show bars on mouse over only
* Hide bars in combat
* Set a fixed width for any plugin
* Change icon size
* Change textures, colours and a lot more...

Where to get more chocolate?

.)WoWInterface

Usage

Right click the panel
or type "/chocolatebar" to open the options menu.
You can also go to the great Blizz addons menu if you like
windows that cant be moved or resized...

You miss a feature or had to much chocolate, please let me know. I look forward to your feedback.

Since the current state of CurseForge is giving me headaches I have decided to give my addons on WoWI more love

The source is now on GitHub and I have enabled automatic packing to WoWI.

Xrystal nUI Maintainer Forum posts: 5935 File comments: 230 Uploads: 28	Battle for Azeroth problems Received this problem when attempting to use it in replacement for titan panel on the BfA prepatch on live. Hopefully it will make more sense to you. My best guess is the map location problem. Code: Message: Error loading Interface\AddOns\ChocolateBar\modules\Location.lua Time: Tue Jul 17 19:44:35 2018 Count: 3 I ended up adding this function to the Location portion of nUI, which I found in part or full amongst the forums here. Lua Code: local function GetUnitMapXY(unit) local mapID = C_Map.GetBestMapForUnit(unit); local mapX = 0; local mapY = 0; if mapID then local mapPos = C_Map.GetPlayerMapPosition(mapID,unit); if mapPos then mapX, mapY = mapPos:GetXY(); end end return mapX,mapY; end __________________ Characters: Gwynedda - 70 - Demon Warlock Galaviel - 65 - Resto Druid Gamaliel - 61 - Disc Priest Gwynytha - 60 - Survival Hunter Lienae - 60 - Resto Shaman Plus several others below level 60 Info Panel IDs : http://www.wowinterface.com/forums/s...818#post136818

I wanted do add some basic plugins to the addon for a while but never got around to finish them. Thanks for the code, a player coordinates plugin sounds like a great addition to add as a base plugin.

Go to settings Look and Feel and change Bar Strata to Background.

Evolution85 A Black Drake Forum posts: 84 File comments: 34 Uploads: 0	A couple of questions I have recently come back to CB as my data broker. It works much better with my current UI than others. But I have two questions. 1) Is it possible to disable the mini map buttons? One of the main reasons I run a LDB is so I don't have those around my mini map. 2) Is there a way to show the time? My current UI doesn't allow for the Blizzard time element to be shown. Btw, thanks for keeping up this great add on!

1) Try MinimapButtonFrame

2) I am planning on adding some basic plugins to CB like a clock. Until then you can you use zz_Infoclock or Broker_uClock.

Rilgamon Premium Member Forum posts: 822 File comments: 303 Uploads: 43	When using Interface->Addons->ChocolateBar my own addons are not listed. When accessing the prefs by rightclick on the bar they're listed and after that available for the systems settings panel,too. Is there something I can change in my addons to make them directly available? Since it happens only with my addons I guess I'm doing sth wrong even though it works in other broker displays. __________________ The cataclysm broke the world ... and the pandas could not fix it!

yess A Fallenroot Satyr Forum posts: 29 File comments: 50 Uploads: 7	I have checked your addons. The difference is that the plugins are created after the player_entering_world event. This will be fixed in the next version. I will also add them to the options list when they are created. Initially I only added them to the list when you open the options. But that did not work for the blizzard options that were added in an later expansion. So I added them there after the player is entering the world but that was not the best solution Last edited by yess : 08-22-18 at 09:16 AM.

Cool

I love it when I just have to wait for someone to fix my bugs

So the clock would simply show the time when the dataobject gets the mouseover and keep that value until another mouseout/-in. Is there a chance for continiously updating tooltips? I always wondered if the broker or the display should handle that __________________ The cataclysm broke the world ... and the pandas could not fix it!

Yes they do not update. You can update the tooltip by yourself if you use the OnEnter() and OnLeave() functions.

ThomasH A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 3 Uploads: 0	Very nice Bar. I use it a very long time in retail(s). I use four Bars and in Classic i miss a field to tell a Broker, in which bar it should appear. Would be easier than lock and unlock to let the broker add appear in bar 1 and then move it arround.
