0.o That's really strange behaviour. It's obviously loading, because the zone text scroll is there.. hm.. When you deleted the saved variables, I trust that you closed the game beforehand?

The strange thing is when I very 1st installed it ... it looked fine... but I have tried deleting it and reinstalling and deleting saved variables... and no luck?
Curious. Are you getting any lua errors?

The only other addons I have on are DBM, Lorti UI, and TipTac. When I shift-click to move it, it won't let me do so again to lock it in place. It moves around with the mouse, when I right-click options come up, when I click it pings the map. I've moved on to using SexyMap, but would like to still check this out again. /reload also resets it back to the original position.


So, I got around to trying this. It appears Lorti UI is hijacking the OnMouseUp event for the Minimap frame which is what is interfering with the behavior of ObeliskMinimap. One thing you can do, is go to /World of Warcraft/wtf/Account/<Account name>/SavedVariables/ObeliskMinimap.lua and manually adjust its position (do this with the game closed). It should look something like this:
Code:
OMM = {
    ["ButtonCollector"] = {
        ["NumColumns"] = 5,
    },
    ["InformationFrame"] = {
        ["Placement"] = "Bottom",
    },
    ["Minimap"] = {
        ["Mask"] = "torn1",
        ["Pos"] = {
            "CENTER", -- [1]
            nil, -- [2]
            "CENTER", -- [3]
            150, -- [4]
            150, -- [5]
        },
        ["Size"] = 190,
    },
}



But the longterm fix would be to use addons that doesn't interfere with each other.

Thanks for the info. I'll see if I can reproduce it using your setup when I get off work.

Could you make an option so that the coordinates are able to be shown where the time is? I have another addon that puts the time somewhere else.
Thanks for the lovely mod!
I'd also like to see this added. And maybe a way to move the zone text separately from the rest of the map if possible. Thanks!

I completely appreciate that most of the world has moved on to scroll functionality. I would be far more likely to try this addon out if it had an option for the buttons. Even if it was, by default, turned off.

Regardless, it looks like a sweet addon that would totally replace the mini-button collector I have now. Good luck, and happy coding!

I believe the +/- buttons are default bound to numpad+ and numpad-, which still work
