Showing my bar on key strike

I wanted to make an action bar to show only when I press a key combination. After reading a lot in the macro guide (I have only a small basic knowledge in macro and /command) I found a way to make my bar showing when I press Shift, Ctrl, Alt, or any combination of those...

But is there a way to make the bar show with any other key combination? LIke Ctrl-E, Alt-1, or even F2? I just cant find a way...

Also, is it possible (and if it isnt, see that as a suggestion ) to press a key (or keys) to make the action bar show, and press it again to hide it, without having to hold the keys for the bar to stay there?

Finally, why cant we do the same with the Bags and the Character bar?

Great addons, continue the good work on it!

Pet bar not visible

I love Bongos so I decided to bite the bullet and try Bongos3. The only issue I have to report is now my pet bar will not show even though I have it marked as visible in the options menu.

How do make my pet bar always visible instead of when I mouse over the empty space where it is positioned?

- As a side note, I have Bongos Cornecopia so I have more config options for the minimap and I'm having issues with the capture bar not being visible, so I deleted the Bongos_PVP module and now it appears when I'm trying to turn a tower, however thank god I have moveFrames so I can still reposition it...

Castbar

Hello,

I'm a big fan of Bongos also like all the new ability's that are put in Bongos3.

But i do have a small problem, i can't make the original Castbar disappear when i open the Bongos Castbar.
This is realy annoying because the original Castbar is in the middle of a chatbox, since i can't drag it along on the screen, what is possible with the Bongos Castbar ofc.
Any idea how to make this work ?

Thank u.

====

Never mind this i found out what the problem is , it's in AG Unitframes.

When 2.4 came out I decided to do a fresh UI and started using Bongos3. As usual, I've Bongos to be very easy to use and set up, but I was wondering if the functionality to change to a new action set when in a Druid's swift flight form can be added in somehow.

Or, if anyone can tell me how to do so, that'd be good too. The Bongos3 wiki page was useful in letting me know what some features can do and how to do it, but I have no experience with lua so I wouldn't know what to do when hacking the code to make the action bars change when shifting into flightform. I'm pretty sure bongos2 was able to achieve this, so if the author could put that back in, that'd be great.

Possibly related to my can't-click-bottom-corner issue... I just realized there's a one-pixel line visible above my XP bar (which I have docked on the top of the screen) as well. Could the snap-to-edge code be the culprit?

Edit: The line at the top goes away if I turn off multisampling. If other people can't reproduce it, this could be a driver issue.

Edit 2: Realized I hadn't tried Bongos2 since the 2.4 update. Just did, and the issue doesn't occur there.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Pet Bar Error

Anyway, here's what I'm thinking of doing for stance configuration:
Say you have a bar, and you want it to display something different in say, Shadowform. You'll do the following:
* Create a new bar of the same size as the old bar.
* Put your shadow form skills on that bar
* Drag that bar onto the bar you want to switch in shadow form. It will become a tab of the bar you dragged it onto.
* Right click the tabbed bar, and set the shadow form slider to point to that bar.

Now, lets say you don't want that bar to have a shadow form page anymore. You'd do the following
* Take the tab on the bar, and drag it off. You'll now see the shadowform bar on screen again
* If you no longer need the bar, you can delete it.
That sounds like it would work really well! I'm totally looking forward to seeing something like that in Bongos3.

Another bit about the macro conditional settings, I'm new to learning macros and such. But, for a Hunter, would it be possible to create bar conditions based on range/melee distance?

Also (I read that this can be done through the wiki) but is there a way to have a different bar showing when I'm grouped and a different bar showing when I'm solo? if anyone can help me with this will be fantastic, it will help TONS
Try the Show States setting with "[group]". It should make that bar visible if you're in a group and invisible when solo.

The pet bar shows the buttons only, when i use my own pet (for example shadowfiend for priest, water elemental for mage), but when i use an ability or device to control someone/something (for example mind control, steam tonk controller), the pet bar stays empty.

Edit: figured out today, how to "fix" this. Need to make a new bar and check "act as possess bar" in bar options. Dunno if it's intended, but a bit annoying
It's a mirror of the Blizzard behaviour. You can set the Act as Possess bar on your your normal bar so that when you control something it will just show there instead.
