PortalBox

Version: 1.1

by: iindigo [More]

PortalBox is a simple addon that gathers all of your portal and teleport spells into a single aesthetically-pleasing window and tracks your Runes of Teleportation and Runes of Portals. Its main window can be invoked by the following commands:

/port
/portalbox
Clicking on its minimap icon

New in 1.1:
• The PortalBox minimap button can now be locked.

• Tol Barad buttons.

• TOC updated for 4.3.

Fixed in 1.1:
• Cataclysm-specific errors fixed. Thanks Kharthus!

• Level requirements for portals and teleports updated to be in line with Cataclysm.

• "Keep window open after casting" option now acts properly under all circumstances.

• Version raised to 1.1 to account for dodzilla's fan update versioned at 1.0.

1.1 - Based on 0.9 fan update. Added Tol Barad, adjusted layout to accommodate more buttons, and brought "learned at" levels in line with Cataclysm. Also added minimap icon locking feature. Updated TOC to 4.3. Version number changed to 1.1 advance past dodzilla's 1.0 fan update.
0.8 - Added option to detach button from minimap, added right-click minimap button to open options panel, added /port config and /portalbox config commands, and fixed old slash commands. Fixed "close upon casting" bug. TOC updated for 3.3.
0.7 - Changed under-the-hood code to work on non-English clients, added compact mode, made the main window movable, and changed window closure upon casting to close at the start of a cast instead of afterwards. Also changed the strata level of the main window and minimap button to something more appropriate.
0.6 - Added Dalaran support, minimap button hiding, window closure upon casting, and untrained portal dimming. Fixed an error that occurs upon first run of addon. Also fixed bug of eating keystrokes while window was open and made a couple of aesthetic changes. Version number 0.6 used to avoid any possible confusion caused by the 0.5 fan update
0.2 - Added support for Horde mages, changed close button aesthetics
0.1 - Initial Public Release

No reason to be so big and take up the full screen. 2. When you click a portal or teleport the window should close. 3. When you are not on a mage, the icon should not show up. With so many Ui's another button can be a pain. 4. Make the button moveable to where I can place it on any part of my screen, not just around the map. Maybe allow us to pick either a map icon or a button I can add to my bar to allow me to use this UI. Does this work with WOTLK as far as Dalaran? I have not gotten Dalaran yet, but I am wondering if it shows up once I do.. All in all great work Cry for Dawn

I have made an attempt to add to the optional files but since I'm not the author it may not work.

Deantwo A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 6 Uploads: 0	ok... for starters... it's a nice and handy AddOn but... the window is maybe too big?... maybe option to change the window... like make a few different kinds/sizes you can pick from in the options menu and make make it an option to have it close the window when you click one of the buttons also... for some reason it tells me that "Teleport: Shattrath" is unlearnable... and i already have it

Your problem is that your client is not English. I don't know how to localize addons, so I can't add multi-language support to PortalBox at the moment.

To the others about scaling issues - the addon is designed to be used with a reduced UI scale. I use it with the UI scale set to minimum and it doesn't take up much space at all. Nevertheless, I'll look into adding a scaling feature for the next version.

To Deantwo: Is your client English?

When you open your bags, the icon for the Portal on your Mini Map sits on top of your bags. Really majorly annoying. 2. Allow the user to remove the button from the mini-map and place it anywhere on the screen. Like many people, I already have so many buttons on my mini-map I struggle with this issue.

For #1, sorry about that. I'll try to find a strata level that is above the minimap but below the bags.

For #2, check the PortalBox preferences under Main Menu --> Interface --> Addons --> PortalBox. Placed there is an option for hiding the minimap button. I'll see about allowing the minimap button to be dragged elsewhere in the next revision.
