BindPad -- Created by Tageshi
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. WHAT IS "BindPad"?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
BindPad is an addon to make KeyBindings for spells, items, and macros.
You no longer need actionbar slots just to make Key bindings for your macores etc.
BindPad addon provides many icon slots in its frame. You can drag and drop
anything into one of these slots, and click the slot to set KeyBindings.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. HOW TO USE "BindPad"?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
(1) Type /bindpad or /bp to display BindPad frame.
(Also you can find "Toggle BindPad" Keybinding command in standard
KeyBindings frame of Blizzard-UI.)
(2) Open spellbook frame (p), you bag (b), or Macro Panel (/macro).
(Also you can use three mini-icons on BindPad frame to open these windows.)
(3) Drag an spell icon, item icon, or macro icon using left button drag and
drop it onto the BindPad window.
(Maybe you need shift key + left button drag if action bars are locked.)
(4) Now you see the icon placed on BindPad frame. Click it,
and a dialog window "Press a key to bind" will appear.
(5) Type a key to bind. And click 'Close' button.
(6) When you want to remove icons from BindPad frame, simply drag away the icon
and press right click to delete it.
Note that KeyBinding itself will not be unbinded when you delete the icon.
To unbind it, click the icon and click Unbind button on the dialog window.
Also you can simply override Keybindings.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. HOW TO USE TABS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
3.1. SLOTS TABS
There are four tabs called Slots Tab on the top of BindPad frame
(like Blizzard's Macro frame).
[General Slots] is for common icons used for every characters and every specs.
[<Character> Specific Slots] is for icons specific to current character
and current spec.
[2] and [3] (aka. 2nd and 3rd <Character> specific slots) will act
in the same way as [<Character> Specific Slots].
Note that you can use [<Character> Specific Slots] tab only after you click
'Character Specific Key Bindings' check box at standard KeyBindings frame of Blizzard-UI.
From BindPad version 1.5, you can see this checkbox on BindPad window itself too.
(Also BindPad will inform you about 'Character Specific Key Bindings' and automatically
activate it for you when you click [<Character> Specific Slots] tab.)
3.2. PROFILE TABS
There are another three tabs called Profile Tab on the side of BindPad frame.
(like Blizzard's Talent frame)
Different Profile can hold different contents in [<Character> Specific Slots].
You can click a Profile tab to switch current Profile, and your choice of
Profile is saved for each Talent specs and automatically reverted to former
profile when you change talent spec. If you choose same Profile for both
talent specs this automatic change will not happen.
Note that [General Slots] tab is not effected by Profile change, as all
contents of [General Slots] tab is common for all characters AND all specs.
If you change Profile while [General Slots] tab is shown,
BindPad will automatically shows [<Character> Specific Slots] tab of
specified Profile.
3.3. CAN I SWITCH PROFILE IN COMBAT? ON STANCE CHANGE?
No, you cannot.
If you need different skills binded for different stances/forms,
simply use the stance condition to decide on what skill to use.
Example: /cast [stance:1/2] Berserker Stance; [stance:3] Intercept
Where [Stance:1/2] is conditioning the macro for you to be in battle stance
or defensive stance and [stance:3] is conditioning you to be in berserker stance.
This works for all classes with stances (Including rogues for stealth [stance:1]
and shadow dance [stance:2] or none of the previous [stance:0]).
Druid example: /cast [stance:1] Bash; [nostance:1] Healing Touch
[nostance] = Caster, [stance:1] = Bear, [stance:2] = Aquatic, [stance:3] = Cat,
[stance:4] = Travel, [stance:5] = Tree/Moonkin if available else Flight,
[stance:6] = Flight if Tree/Moonkin is not available.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. "You want to convert this icon into a BINDPAD MACRO?"... What?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
"BindPad Macro" is a new feature from BindPad version 1.8.0 ;
which allow you to make almost unlimited number of virtual macro icons.
Older versions of BindPad just let you save your limited action bar slots.
This new BindPad will let you save your limited macro slots on the standard
"Create Macro" panel.
Usage:
- Click the small red "+" icon to create an empty BindPad Macro.
- Right-click an existing spell/item/macro icon on BindPad to convert it into a BindPad Macro.
- Right-click the "BindPad Macro" to edit macro-text.
- ...and you can use left-click to set keybindings as usual.
Note that BindPad Macro will only exist within the BindPad frame;
You can drag-and-drop them within BindPad, but you cannot drop them outside.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. DETAILS AND MORE INFORMATIONS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

But instead mouse cursor is flickering; so I imagine Carbonite is doing something very rapidly and maybe with some more detailed conditions hotkey text flickering may happen with it. I need more information. Does that happen for you with only two addons BindPad and Carbonite? Does that happen with default setting of Carbonite? or you need some sort of customize? |

But many customization tool for mouse outside of WoW client allows you to replace your mouse button 5~ to shift key or some other modifier key. I suggest to use those tools. |

The exact problem seems to be the quest objective checking of carbonite. Created a new char, only enabled this two addons made some bindings and the problem did not occur. However when doing thhe same on a toon wich I'm currently leveling, he has 12 Quests in his log, opening the quest watch list will produce this flickering. When removing all quests from the watchlist or closing the quest watch list, the flickering stops. So when you try to reproduce this results try a char with many quests in his log and make sure his quest watchlist is open (click on the "-" on the small semi visible carbonite bar) |

Now I can reproduce the problem, and then found out the cause. This is Carbonite's bug; which is calling SetBindingClick() API very frequently for Carbonite's "Use Top Quest Watch Item" keybinding. We can temporary fix this problem by this slash command. Code:
/run Nx:GGO()["QWKeyUseItem"]=nil |

Could the Carbonite bug -- which admittedly I haven't noticed -- have anything to do with the way my game runs jittery with Carbonite enabled? I always have BindPad enabled because I simply can't play with it, and can't find anything on the Carbonite forums about jittery gameplay. Is anyone else experiencing this too? It's driving me insane.
For the record, I've checked CPU time and found nothing abnormal.

Back on topic; I've pretty much bound all my abilities to keybinds using bindpad but when I enter a vehicle, the vehicle abillities have no binds because the bindings are directly used on the abilities instead of bar buttons. Is there a way to switch to other bindings when entering a vehicle or anothe solution to this? Having no hotkeys for vehicle abilities is pretty annoying in movement intensive situations.

On vehicle binds, use something like this: Code:
/click [bonusbar:5] BonusActionButton3 /stopmacro [bonusbar:5] /cast Hand of Reckoning

Code:
#showtooltip /click [bonusbar:5] BonusActionButton3 /stopmacro [bonusbar:5] /cast [stealth] Garrote ; Rupture Theoretically this should show the correct icon + tooltip, cast button 3 when possesing a vehicle else cast Garrote while stealthed or rupture while not. [bonusbar:X] X is the number of the bar, if so why is this used are there more than one possess bar? Also there's a new carbonite Version out including the fix mentioned below and also "Reduced general garbage accumulation by 90%." based on that statement alone it should run more smoothly. Edit: The flicker bug still seems to appear with the new carbonite build, altough not as fast flickering if I'm not mistaken; could someone try to reproduce this so I know it's not something on my end.

Is there a way to disable PopUp when we try to set a key for the secondary spec when the key is already used in the main spec. Because I found this weird the first time I set up the keybindings for my secondary spec

Does the #showtooltip <skill> command work for assigning icons inside the actual bindpad interface? I'm making the switch from macaroon to BP and it helps me keep everything sorted in my head if I can see the icons in the addon interface.
