How I may move the minimap? Position_x and _y are defined in the lua file but never used =)

Maybe you lost this:

local mc = MinimapCluster
m:SetScale(scale)
m:SetFrameStrata("MEDIUM")
m:ClearAllPoints()
m:SetPoint(position, UIParent, position_x, position_y)
mc:ClearAllPoints()
mc:SetAllPoints(m)

I've updated it to fix that issue, sorry for the mixup! I don't know how I deleted that segment of my code.

I also am playing with a different outer border script, the code is currently inactive so it won't effect any users. Just something to keep in mind if you're having any issues with border-width inconsistencies.

PVP tracker under the minimap - the one that check if horde or alliance have the flag f.ex is not aligned to the minimap nor can it be move(i think not atleast).
Could you add an easy Lua config like you did with the minimap position at the top?

I may possibly add an anchor or drag function for the PvP tracker but we shall see. If so i'd expect an update in the next week.

Great Mod

First off man, great mod, excellent mem-usage and all that
Discovered a couple issues... Well, more like, niggles.

First off, I set the strata to LOW for stText Coords to lay on top of it, and set it for TOPLEFT (x= 10 and y= -25)

Now for the niggles:
The LFD icon is just fine where it is at, but when I hover on it, the frame that pops up goes off to the left off screen.
Quest tracker is also mashed up into the Minimap-Cluster, but realigns itself under the Vehicle Frame if I get into my Chopper, or Mammoth.

Unfortunately, my grasp of LUA is very limited, so I have little clue as to how to fix this >.<

edit:
I came across an LFD fix and inserted the code within the "Move S&!T" area

LFDSearchStatus:ClearAllPoints()
LFDSearchStatus:SetPoint("TOPLEFT", MiniMapLFGFrame, "TOPRIGHT")

works just fine so far

Hey really nice addon! just got a problem: the battleground icon and looking for group icon are overlapped when I just left dungeon and queued for a random bg. Think you might need to seperate them since the LFG icon wont disappear

I'm not sure what you mean with this issue, you cannot queue for a BG and a random at the same time so they should not both be active at once. A screenshot would be much appreciated.

I'll be uploading an update shortly that will fix the LFG mouseover issue and make it dynamic depending on where you have your minimap anchored. Also nothing should bleed offscreen anymore.

The update will also include a fix for the quest tracking issues. By default the Quest Tracker will properly anchor to the bottom of the minimap, however there is now a config stub for it in the Lua file. Next patch will hopefully include something for the pvp capture tracker, but I can't find the name of that effing frame.

Excellent!

Finally have a chance to post again!
Been playing around with the map, everything is working like it should!
Got the Minimap down low and to the left where I need it and got the quest frame up and out of the way where I want it.

To quote Mr. Burns "Eeeeeeexcellent!"

(The only other suggestion that I could POSSIBLY think of is lua config for the vehicle frame... even then, not really, since it is working just fine )

You'll find a config section at the top of the file that will allow you to change where you want the quest tracker set.

To make it easy for you, you'll want to change
Code:
local qparent = Minimap         -- Use "Minimap" or "UIParent". Defines what frame the anchor position is relative to.
local qanchor = "BOTTOMRIGHT"   -- Where to anchor
local qspot = "TOPRIGHT"        -- Which corner/side of the Quest Frame to anchor. 
local qposition_x = 0           -- X Offset
local qposition_y = -80         -- Y Offset
to

Code:
local qparent = Minimap         -- Use "Minimap" or "UIParent". Defines what frame the anchor position is relative to.
local qanchor = "TOPRIGHT"   -- Where to anchor
local qspot = "BOTTOMRIGHT"        -- Which corner/side of the Quest Frame to anchor. 
local qposition_x = 0           -- X Offset
local qposition_y = 80         -- Y Offset
Should work

I am using multisampling x8, so my clear lines are of course turning into multiple lines. I normally use kgPanels to overlap addon borders or when I need border, since it has some functions to make it clear even though you have multisampling. Therefor how do I remove/hide the borders inside this addon? I tried removing everything after "BORDERS:", but then it's not posible to move the minimap itself.

Great addon btw.
