NumPadBar  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 4.2
by: merak69 , Shaktar

Features

  • Offers a choice of five popular keyboards
  • Offers a choice of three action bar sizes
  • Switches bars on form/stance changes, if desired
  • Hides the numpad or labels if desired
  • Locks all action bars during combat
  • Prevents shift-dragging actions out of numpad buttons during combat
  • Prevents dragging numpad off screen
  • Saves settings individually for each character
  • Displays detailed instructions in a scrollable tooltip
  • Compatible with OmniCC, a ui mod that displays cooldowns on buttons

Warning

Due to the lack of spare action slots for druids and warriors, slots of bottom action bar #2 are used to store numpad actions in. For moonkin and treeform druids, the entire bottom action bar #2 is used. For warriors and feral druids using arrow keys, only the rightmost 4 slots are used.

Description

NumPadBar is an action bar in the shape of a numpad. It works like a built-in action bar such as the Bottom Right ActionBar, for example. You can drag actions and macros into and out of NumPadBar, just like other action bars.

The first major difference between NumPadBar and built-in action bars is that it is in the shape of a numpad. Also, keybindings for numpad keys are already set up for the numpad bar. These keybindings are temporary and are only used while the numpad is displayed.

The second major difference is that NumPadBar can be used as a normal action bar or as a stance bar. When using it as a normal action bar, the same actions are used no matter what stance you are in. When using it as a stance bar, the actions will change depending on your stance; they will be the same actions that are in the built-in stance bar.

You can move NumPadBar anywhere on screen. You can change its size. You can choose from a selection of popular keyboards; this affects the layout of the numpad keys. You can hide NumPadBar. You can hide the labels on the keys. You can select whether to display the Enter key (and override Chat binding), and whether to display the cursor keys (and override movement and other bindings).

In the heat of combat, it is all too easy to accidentally drag actions out of action bars. Therefore, NumPadBar, as well as the built-in action bars, are locked during combat. This prevents all changes to NumPadBar during combat.

You can display instructions in a scrollable tooltip by right-clicking the invisible background of NumPadBar near the numeric keys and selecting Help.

Exclamation Cannot re-show

I right clicked on the NumPadBar background and clicked "hide UI". I want to reshow it, but it's not letting me. I'm trying to type /numpad which is the command it shows on startup, (but it only shows this on other characters with numpadbar enabled/shown), but when I type this nothing happens.

I've tried reinstalling it to no avail, and disabling/re-enabling it, but of course this also failed. Could you tell me what's wrong?

You can download from either website, the zip file is exactly the same.
Thank you, Merak, for the fixes!

Unfortunately, stance switching is still broken in the new version on Curse. Looks like a new author picked up the project but just incorporated the fix mentioned below. Hopefully he's working on a real fix for it.

Is there any chance that this addon will be updated for 3.02? A fix would be appreciated and thanks in advance if it's a work in progress. I really need this addon and if I knew how to fix it myself I would.

Edit: Found a fix on another site The numpad bar works, but stances don't and as I use casters it's fine for me.

All that is needed to make this work in 3.x is to edit NumPadBar.lua from

local numpad = CreateFrame('Frame', 'NumpadFrame', UIParent, 'SecureStateDriverTemplate')

to

local numpad = CreateFrame('Frame', 'NumpadFrame', UIParent)

I'm guessing no, but just to be sure, I have to ask: Is there anyway I can set it so that I only see numpad buttons 1-9? or even just so that it hides any unused buttons?

I like this addon and want to use it, but I only want to use 1-9... and I'm bothered by the still visible "/*-0." buttons...

I've finally uploaded 2.4.2.

All users should download this update. All taint problems have been fixed.

All known bugs have been fixed, including stance switching for rogues, saving the position of the numpad when the size is small, some flashing/hidden button problems, and key labels look normal again.

WoW 2.4.2 will finally fix taint problems involving displaying empty buttons in action bar mods. About 2 weeks after 2.4.2 is released, I will upload an updated NumPadBar, which will also have a number of bug fixes. Please check back about 2 weeks after WoW 2.4.2 is released.

WoW 2.3 has problems with action bar mods. All action bar mods are getting taint errors in combat. WoW 2.3.2 is supposed to have changes to fix these problems. I will have wait until WoW 2.3.2 comes out to make an update to NumPadBar to work with changes in WoW 2.3.2.

Thanks for the bug report, Shermer. Stance switching for rogues will be fixed in the next version which I will be uploading in about a week.

I am having a problem with the latest version of NumPadBar. Using it with my rogue, I have the NumPadBar set to use Stances, but when in Stealth the 1 through 6 keys seem to be the same as the Clear/Equals/Slash/*/-/+ keys (using the Macintosh layout, arrows and nav buttons turned off). So, there's really no way to set up the keys effectively.

Also, I had to get 2.22 from curse.com. The version number on WoWI shows 2.22, but it seems to actually be an older version when I download it.

I really like the mod, hope you're able to fix this!

I changed the key label placement so that red dot range indicators can display. The key labels are now in the center of the buttons. Not really ideal but it was needed to let the red dot range indicators work.
