NotesUNeed  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: v6.63.33500
by: Telic, AJH16

___________________________________________________

NotesUNeed v6.63.33500 - Adrill of Eonar (US)
Originally created by Telic of Dragonblight (EU)
___________________________________________________

- fixed ChatFrameEditBox issue as reported by ameyaselene. Thanks for the great bug report.

Additionally, if anyone else would additionally be interested in working on maintaining this mod with me, I am looking in to setting NuN up on a repository to allow multiple contributors to work on it. PM me if you want to get involved.

AJ (Adrill of Eonar/US)




Feature-rich, searchable Notes database with many automated features, and additional NuN tooltips for viewing note details.

Make Contact Notes on other Players, or General Notes on anything else.

This AddOn is for making your own custom notes on players, and quests, and items, etc. and does not come with any pre-made notes.
It does provide an Export and Import Feature for sharing of sets of notes, or publishing of note databases.

There is no longer an "Alternative" version of NuN, and the default Modifier keys for creating notes from Container Items and Hyperlinks is now simply "<Alt>-Left Mouse Click". For anyone unhappy with this key-Combo, then they can now specify their own via the NotesUNeed Options frame.

Compatible with Titan via : TitanNotesUNeed
http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/titannotesuneed.aspx

Compatible with LibDataBroker AddOns via : NuN-LDB
http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/info13550-NuN-LDBLibDataBrokerAddonforNotesUNeed.html

Changes in v6.45.20400 from v6.43.20400

- NuN will now try to record Talent tree details when collecting information.
Players must be within range when you create the Note or use the Target Info button.
This information will be detailed in the Tooltip when :
a.) in the general Tooltip information for that Contact
The main Talent description will be based on the branch in which the most points have been spent
e.g. for a Shaman the description might read :
Elemental 40-7-23
b.) hovering over the Class button in the Contact note editing frame will give much more Talent details for that Player
NOTE : NuN does not try to gather this information automatically for Party/Guild members.

- fix to try and minimise the display of Contact tooltip details when hovering over General items with the same root name

Changes in v6.41.20400 from v6.40.20300

- New Option to hide NuN Notes and Tooltips for Ignored players
(Note: this only hides ignored player notes in the Note browser frame - you can still open that players note via slash commands, or Microbuttons)
(Note2: only the NotesUNeed tooltip is hidden, not the Blizzard Game Tooltip)

- small compatibility changes to SendMessage hooks (hopefully more compatible with TellTrack

- allows manual entry of names beginning with special "accented" characters e.g. Á, É, etc...
(NOTE : Names beginning with these types of characters are sorted by the game to appear AFTER "Z" alphabetically)

(BETA Functionality)
- If you send a note to someone who already has a note with the same name, then the recipient will be shown a Warning Dialog box allowing them to choose whether they want to Replace their existing note, or cancel receipt of the note and keep their original version instead.
There is now also a third option allowing the sent note to be merged with the existing note by "ALT-Clicking" on the Replace button.
When notes are merged, then the newly sent text will be appended to the end of the existing note's text. Currently, other values such as those populated in DropDown boxes will still be set according to the received note, and will replace old values in the original note.

Alt-Clicking

I have re-tested, and Alt-Clicking on bag items seems fine to me.

As you can Alt-Click on chat frame links, then my first guess is there is an incompatibility with another of your AddOns (?)
e.g. Item database, or Item tracking, or a Bag Mod ?

Can you test with ONLY NuN enabled to see if that allows Alt-Clicking ?

If you can track down which AddOn is causing the problem I will be able to investigate if the problem can be solved

Great addon, was happy to find it. Got a problem with the <alt-click> method on items in my bags. Nothing happens. When i <alt-click> on itemlinks in the chat the notewindow appears, but not by clicking the containeritems. I've changed the modifier keys and clicks but it hadn't helped.

Would also be nice if you could make the addon modular, because some people (me for example^^) might just want to use the itemnotes or just the questnotes and so on.

Thanks for writing this! (and sry for my english german client)

I would have to code it specifically to capitalise it where the player hadn't, or lower-case everything else that was already capitlised....

I may take a look at some point, but I'm treating it as low priority

- Bleh! Had to change the shortcut key for Saving notes to <Alt>-S
This should re-enable normal shortcut keys for cutting / pasting

Changes in v6.36.20300 from v6.35.20300

- the "[]" hyperlink button functionality can now be restricted to output individual hyperlinks, by highlighting them in the note text.
So if no text is highlighted, then the functionality is unchanged and all Hyperlinks are "echoed" to the Chat frame where they can be clicked.
But if you highlight individual Hyperlinks in the text before using the button, then only those will be "echoed"

- the "[]" hyperlink button will now also paste hyperlinks in to the chat frame edit box rather than "echoing" to the chat frame, IF the edit box is open

- can now use the <Control>-S shorcut key to save open NotesUNeed notes
This is the most common short key used to save documents in all types of word processors and notepads, and I won't be offering a way to modify it.
I am so used to using <Control>-S to save documents/scripts while writing them, that this has been on my wish-list for a long time ;p

- a chat frame message will now confirm when you manually save a note

- adjusted the position of the NuN Icon on the "Looking For More" frame to ensure the Raid leader symbol will be visible
