Bongos3  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 1.3
by: Tuller [More]

I have written a new action bar addon, called Dominos, and am no longer supporting this one. Please feel free to try it out, along with Trinity Bars, and Bartender 3

Bongos3 is a main action bar replacement designed be both powerful, yet lightweight and easy to use.

Have Questions? Check out the wiki first!

Included Addons:

  • Bongos - The core addon.
  • Bongos_AB - The action bar portion of Bongos.
  • Bongos_CastBar - A casting bar replacement. Colors the bar based on if the spell being cast is helpful, harmful or neutral. Also includes a timer.
  • Bongos_RollBar - Makes the dialogs that pop up when rolling on items movable.
  • Bongos_Stats - A movable framerate, latency, and addon memory usage indicator.
  • Bongos_XP -A movable experience/reputation bar.
  • Bongos_Options - A load on demand options menu.

Features
  • Every bar can be moved, hidden, and have its scale and opacity altered
  • Sticky bars - Each bar can be anchored to any other bar
  • 120 action buttons, which can be setup in any number of bars
  • Customizable stance transitions and state visibility for each action bar
  • Buff and debuff highlighting on action buttons

1.3
* Bugfixes

1.2e
* Fixed a petbar error

1.2d
* Updated keybound

1.2c
* Corrected zip file structure

1.2b
* Removed an erroneous debug print

1.2
* Switched to using LibKeyBound instead of KeyBound
* Added jailborc's XP bar modifications
* Fixed errors with the class bar under the case of a class with no classbar skills.

1.1
* Fixed a bug causing my upgrade code not to run. If you're upgrading from 1.0 to 1.1, please make sure you've set a bar as the possess bar
* Fixed typo

1.0
* The possess bar will now default to the pet bar if no action bar has been set to act as it
* You can now only have one possess bar at a time
* Bongos now fires two Ace3 messages: BONGOS_LOCK_ENABLE and BONGOS_LOCK_DISABLE

Gamma.1
* Fixed some grammar issues

Beta.12
* Fixed a bug causing disabling sticky bars causing bars to move out of place
* Fixed bug causing bindings to clear on a new version update
* Fixed a bug causing bindings to not disable properly when removing a button or loading a profile
* Added an option to show tooltips only in combat
* Slightly tweaked the interface options menu

Beta.11
* Added an option to make the pet bar act as the possess bar
* Made the binding and config mode dialogs movable
* Fixed a bug for new users

Beta 10:
* Added a Page slider to each stance menu, tried to make the bar creation help more informative/noticeable.

Beta 9:
* Replaced the term Action Set with paging, and altered all of the stance sliders to say Page X instead of simply X
* Differentiated Page 1 from the default state of do nothing, called Disabled.
* Changed the format used for creating the right click menu for action bars to be table driven. Take a look at Bongos_AB/actionBarConfig.lua if you wanna edit it.

A bug found.
The XP bar width is broken when i use profile from another char (i started for first time with bongos 3 (before bongos 2) thus i copied styles from another chars.
But XP bar width is still struck at long width (default setting) and in setting window for XP bar, i move width pointer, but nothing changed.

Only first char has correctly setted XP bar width, but next char with copied settings from first char has the problem.

Please fix the problem.

Edit: after reload GUI the XP bar width is now correct. But it's still small bug and a bit frustrating.

The zone bar is also missed in bar settings. Only middle-click on zonebar can hide the bar function.

Bongos2 and 3 are completely independent of each other, so there should be no issue when transitioning between them. I'm still at a loss as to why your issue is happening. Does it occur without bongos enabled?
I just downloaded the newest version (I had been using the gamma before),made a new character in a new server with only Bongos3 and Bongos3 Actionbar activated, and it still happens. It doesn't happen with the default actionbars though, nor does it happen with Bongos 2.

I use a logitec MX510 mouse if that helps at all.

Just to reiterate, it scrolls erratically, sometimes one "click" of the mousewheel isn't enough for it to scroll and often you need 2 or 3. Also, it seems scrolling down is more "laggy" than up, but not in any predictable manner.

Tuller, I've created Action Bar 2 as a modifier bar, but the slider won't let me change it to 2 pages. It only stays at one page.

Fixed by using another Action Bar - for some reason Action Bar 2 doesn't like using modifiers.

		["cooldown"]= { w=44, h=44, fl=0, s=.7, },
		["hotkey"]	= { x=1, y=9, dl="OVERLAY", },
		["count"]	= { x=0, y=-8, dl="OVERLAY", },
		["bagicon"]	= { w=26, h=25, x=6, y=-6, },
		["autocast"]= { w=31, h=31, s=0.9, fl=0, },
		["autocastable"]= { w=62, h=61, y=-0.5 },
then i change

Code:
["hotkey"]	= { x=1, y=9, dl="OVERLAY", },
and in particular the x coordinate.
as far as the size go i fixed that with ClearFont2

But now I have a Problem: I need to change the position/size of the Keybinding Text on the Buttons. I know there is no such Option in the configuration menu. Therefor I looked in the Lua Files for some code that takes care of the text formatting but i don't have found such.

Can you give me some advice where I'am able to modfiy this ?


Sorry for my english grammar.. don't use it often =)

Nice to see the improved update; keep plugging at it. In the meantime, I'm sticking with version 2.
A converter is not going to happen. It is not possible to represent everything that Bongos2 could do with Bongos3 due to the mirroring system Bongos2 uses.

Try going in an and manually defining a bar as the "Possess" bar. There's a check box on the first config screen of any of the button bars to define it.

I use 3*8 button lines first one with 3 pages and the rest with 2.

If i create first 3 with 12 the order is okayish but after i resize it to the wanted 8 buttons it seems to reajust and all spells get out of order, then there's the pages that i can't define so as my warrior would use 7,8,9 for battle, defence, zerger (as blizzard's default) now it just uses 7 and other random buttons.

I haven't really looked at your code but i suspect you just alocate the buttons in sequence. would it be possible for the first 10 bars to start the buttons id were they'd start in blizzard's default ui?

So bar1 would be 1-8, bar2 would be 13-21, bar3 and so on... after bar10 they would just fill the available spaces like 9-12.

Now paging would still be tricky but as long as bar1 uses the same positions as the default blizzard ui it would be good enough.

I'm suspect that to make it work as i describe would be a tremendous amount of work, so maybe a small option to start every new bar at the start position and ignore the wasted buttons might be easy enough, just wishfull thinking here
