KGPanels Help

(Solved)

Does anyone know what script I could add so that a panel vanishes when I am in vehicle or pet battle mode?

That way my panel isn't in the way of the UI. What panel do you recommend I set to Parent and Anchor?

Thanks!

Parent and then anchor your panel to something that disappears when you want the panel to disappear. Like the panels behind my action bars. I have them parented and anchored to action buttons on the action bars so that they go away in a pet battle and whenever the action bars go away. In the case of the center stack of action bars I have the panel large enough to back up all three bars, and then parented and anchored to action button 1 of action bar 1. The two side bars I have parented and anchored to different buttons, and my "trap bar" I have everything set to button 1.

Okay, like I said, it worked... but I ran into a snag...

On runes in Blackrock Foundry... when you get grasped by the fist... it caused my bars to vanish, and I needed them to fight the fist?

Any thoughts?

Parenting a kgPanel to your action bars will not cause your bars to disappear. It is the opposite.

I parented the panel to the bar in times that they do vanish, so the panel would vanish

Parenting = attaching. So, if the panel is parented (attached) to your bars, then hiding or showing the bars makes the panel automatically be hidden or shown (the same state), but hiding or showing the panel will not affect the bars.

The only way hiding or showing the panel could affect the bars would be to parent (attach) the bars to the panel, which kgPanels does not support directly; you would need to write custom Lua code in the OnLoad script box for your panel. Since you probably did not do that, the most likely situation is that your action bar mod (Dominos, Bartender4, etc.) is not configured correctly for "possession" or other special states.
