Text Alignment & Background

LOVE this addon - thank you so much for creating this as the quests not adding automatically annoyed the hell out of me.

If there is any chance could I beg a couple of added features to further enhance it wonderfulness.

1. I prefer to have the list on the left where it is a bit more obvious than stuck under the mini-map. However the text seems to align to the right so every time you add/delete a quest the window moves a little bit to adjust for the changing position of the left margin. Would it be possible to have an option for right or left alignment of the text please.

2. As another person also asked below, any chance of an option to change background colour as it can sometimes be hard to see the text on the clear background. Even just a simple black/white/clear option would be great.

Thanks again and keep up the great work

Yea I'll have to make it dynamically align the text depending on the location
They are on the list, but I'm slowly but surely getting to it

tracking Issue

Not sure if this is caused by this addon or if it is caused by the Classic Quest Log for Classic addon.
I am unable to track any of the three quests for "The Ashenvale Hunt" mobs. it shows the little checkmark next to quest in the log but will not appear on the tracker.

For now, you can add QuestWatchFrame to MoveAnything (in FrameList.Lua, just mimic one of the existing "API:AddElement" lines) and then scale it via MoveAnything. Note that MoveAnything will pop up a few Lua errors in regards to frames & events that aren't a part of Classic, but it does still work.

Note that, in order to make sure they work well together, you will need to force MoveAnything to load before ModernQuestWatch. Add the following line to MoveAnything.toc:

Thanks for making this addon! The one thing I wish it didn't do was break the escape button which I normally use to close the quest log window. Anyway, keep up the good work!

TBC Classic

I believe all that's needed for TBC compatibility is to add these lines

if not QuestWatchFrame.SetBackdrop then
Mixin(QuestWatchFrame, BackdropTemplateMixin)
end

to the top of
function MQW:Initialize()
