Code:
local angle = 44; 
local x = 98;
local y = 98;
However, I use a custom icon texture and the Icon border and background is hidden. It will be part of my next UI, but it's not done yet.

@Alekc
No, that's not a part of a minimap addon, imho.

hello

is it possible to save the config per character instead of global? I use different UI setup on several chars and scaling the minimap fits the UI for one char but not for the other.

great addon anyways

I'm using the most simple function to make the map moveable. If you want to have the same position for all chars, take the time to edit the default coords in the lua (you can also copy and paste them from within of layout-cache.txt) OR copy the layout-cache.txt from one char to the other.

I would recomend that you try and work some form of config into this but until then i will be using another addon but thanks for the great work you have put in so far.
I have to agree with relisyss here. If you would implement an in-game config menu I wouldn't hesitate using this addon.

If you want an ingame config, use a different map addon.

Hello,

I'm new here. Just switched from Chinchilla to dMinimap. I'm liking it so far and memory use is really low. I have one question though, I might have missed a post about it. But how would I get the PvP anchor (the thing in EotS towers) on the top center of my screen?

Blips not working properly...

I have tried to locate the issue but with no luck so maybe anyone here could add some insight.

Before the patch, all was working fine for all blips. Now the only issue with blips is party and raid.

Party Icon (small purple dot - should be the custom blip):


Tracking Humanoids:


Tracking vendors/banks/reagents/etc:



I added my own custom blips to the mod (inspired by Charmed from Blipstick):




Map mods I use:
dminimap
Mapster


Is anyone else having such issues? I have tried deleting Mapster and files from my SavedVariables folder, or anything that I would think would conflict with the mods blips.

Any insight would be helpful.


Thanks

Edit: I also disabled all mods except dminimap and still get the same results.

3.1.1 fucked up using custom blips, imho. They are incredible small and I'm having the same issue for raid/party members. Maybe they changed the default blip texture or something like that.

I figured as much Dawn. Yeah when the patch came out, the blips were so tiny that I customized my own to make them bigger and better because I use the smallest UI scale and large resolution.

But oh well, I will have to deal with it.

Thanks Dawn for the reply.

Tracking blip sizing

I love the addon! But with the newest patch (3.1.2) all my tracking blips tripled in size!! I was just curious if you were going to be updating the addon to fix this or if there is a .lua variable that i can change to return my tracking icons to their original size.

Edit: Ahh.. so originally they weren't suppose to be that small... Is there anyway to make them small again then?
