For players who want to get the most out of the default action bar, the Paging addon automatically switches the primary action buttons to 10 different pages, based on customizable macro modifiers. You can, for example, change to different bars based on the target unit's reaction, or page using the Shift and CTRL keys to access more different abilities with the same set of keyboard buttons.
Since Paging uses the default Blizzard action bar, it is quick to set up ‒ there are no extra bars to fiddle around on screen, and it stays out of the way when paging is not necessary. This makes the addon ideal for players who do not want to spend time on configuring a full-blown action bar replacement, but who desire the automatic paging feature that some of them have to offer.

I have changed the behaviour regarding [extrabar] in the development version. I'm waiting for Patch 5.2 to release it; in the meantime, could you download the following revision and check if it fixes the issue?
With this revision, you shouldn’t need to explicitly add this modifier any more. 17f53fcaf3 Retain paging while [extrabar] is active

Please let me know if adding [extrabar] fixes it for you so that I can remove it from the safety checks. |

Thanks for your response. This video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SNdkWOhpX6g (at 0:26) should clarify what I mean by 'extra action button'. I will try out the [extrabar] modifier.

I like this addon a lot, but I have run into a small issue: whenever the extra action button pops up (which happens quite often nowadays), my script doesn't work (no errors whatsoever, just no reaction). I'm running a very simple script: [mod:alt]5; . I would appreciate it if you could look into this matter and thanks for a great addon!

Re: MoP Version?
Apparently, Blizzard has gotten rid of the former "bonus action bar" that was overlaid when entering a stance. I have updated the code to reflect this, but I can only really test it on a starter account, and I'm not sure if there are other changes that I missed. |

MoP Version?
Thank you for that utterly useful add-on! No bloat, just works...
Any hopes to get an updated version for MoP? -- Ygrayne |

Thank you for making this addon. I had a similar idea that I was going to make myself, but the function to change pages can't be used in combat so that makes it a lot more complicated.

Re: Is this AddOn still being updated?
Vehicle bar not having the appropriate spells: This is very odd, because normally the Vehicle UI completely replaces the part of the interface that is affected by Paging (it uses VehicleMenuBarActionButtonX while Paging only modifies ActionButtonX and BonusActionButtonX). However it might be a taint issue (I hope it isn't...) or maybe somehow the regular action buttons remain visible and capture the key presses. Do you actually see the icons from your other bars, or does it show the normal vehicle actions but performs different actions on keypress? Wrong spells being cast: That might be caused by the dirty tricks that Paging uses with the bonus or stance bars. I've got a development branch where Paging does not attempt to hide the bonus bar, but overrides it in the same way as it does for the main bar. This should make it less error-prone, but it hasn't been tested extensively. Would you mind downloading it to see if it fixes (or breaks) anything for you? The URL is https://github.com/teomyr/Paging/zip...ual-overriding (there was a different link mentioned below, but it's currently broken, sorry about that). Some words of advice on your header: you appear to be mirroring the default behavior (e.g. [form:1] 9; [form:3] 7; ) instead of letting it fall back to that using an empty selector. Keep your header as simple as possible to minimize the chances for breakage (the fewer selectors, the less involved Paging is ). The empty selector resembles Blizzard's behavior, which saves you a lot of work, so it's best if you don't use "catch-all" selectors without any conditionals, like the "1;" in your header. Try the following replacement header (I hope I understood your header correctly): Code:
[mod:alt] 1; [nostance, harm] 2; Changed event: Absolutely correct, thanks for mentioning that. Will fix that in the next release. Override bindings: Indeed, this is a conflict that isn't easily resolved. I'm most likely going to implement a configurable option to toggle this behavior. Visibility: Good point, though the use of "show" is to explicitly force the frame to be visible, which might not be the case with an empty value. It's one of these crude hacks I mentioned above (In fact, the dual-overriding branch does no longer use it.) Again, thanks for your comments; I'm not playing much at the moment, so feedback is the only way I'll notice these things. |

Is this AddOn still being updated?
I love the idea of this AddOn, but have been experiencing some problems with it. I use the following header as a feral druid; ALT is my self-cast key:
[bonusbar:5] 11; [mod:alt] 1; [form:1] 9; [form:3] 7; [harm] 2; 1; - First, sometimes the vehicle bar does not have the appropriate spells. I'll end up with one of bar 1, 2, 7, or 9's icons in the vehicle bar. - Second, sometimes the bar 1 spells (healing spells for me) will be cast no matter what form I am in and no matter whether I am using the alt modifier. Switching forms does not clear up the issue. Only a /reload ui solves it. I haven't determined for certain if this happens sometimes after re-entering an instance after dying or is just happening upon entering combat. I tried to debug the code myself, but found the secure state header documentation frustrating. Props for getting this far... I've made a couple changes which seem to help, although since the error above are not consistent, I'd like to do more testing. I've changed: - Event PLAYER_LOGIN to PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD. If it is related to deaths and resurrections, I think that may help. - I commented out all of the OverrideBindings code. I actually think this is what is causing problem number 2. I think I understand what you had in mind with the Overrides; however, I'm not sure that you should override bindings on the frame for modifies by default. If I had ctrl-2 bound on another ActionBar and had ctrl used in the header in Paging, that strikes me as a conflict that isn't resolvable. There isn't a good way of knowing if I mean ctrl-Paged 2 or just ctrl-2 from the other actionbar. - when using the "visibility" special case of RegisterStateDriver, I found documentation stating to use "hide" and "show" instead of "hide" and "" as you had in the AddOn.

Code:
[help] [mod:alt] 2; [stance:1] 1; Tip: If you're building more complex selectors, whichever modifier is listed first gets priority over the following ones, i.e. if you were to use "[stance:1] 1; [help] [mod:alt] 2;" it would always show page 1 while in Shadowform, even if you pressed alt. |

Tried this and love it. But however, but as a priest I can't get it to show bar 1 in Shadowform. Could you give me some help? This is what I got so far:
[help] [mod:alt] 2;

Could you try this experimental version? I've changed it so that it does not show or hide the bonus bar, but instead overrides both the main bar and the bonus bar at the same time. The result should be the same, but with possibly fewer chances for breakage
