HandyNotes  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: v1.6.18
by: Xinhuan, Nevcairiel

Handy Notes for your maps. This addon is intended to be a small and simple replacement for Cartographer_Notes and functions in a similar manner.

Use /handynotes to access options.

You can add notes to the maps in 3 ways:

  • Alt-RightClick on the world map to add a note.
  • Use "/hnnew" without the quotes to add a note at your current location.
  • Use "/hnnew x,y" without the quotes to add a note at location x,y on your current zone's map.

See change log tab for changes from v1.1.6 to v1.2.0

HandyNotes supports plugins that other authors can write to display their own set of notes on the map. See this link for a list of such addons

Hardcoding keybinds is bad... My Alt+RClick already used by TomTom.

Note creating interface is not over map... moreover, if /framestack is to be believed, it's not even created until map is closed.
There's nowhere to enter note coords. (How can you call it "Replace to Cart_Notes" without it?)

P.S.
I strongly suggest you include LibSharedMedia... and pull icons list from it.

Actually the default in TomTom is not alt-right click (configurable in TomTom), I know this since I use TomTom - they do not conflict by default.

As for the other complaint, I'll have to look into it - I use Mapster which allows you to put your map on a lower frame level.

Your error is caused by the HandyNotes_Directions plugin addon, please contact the author of that addon.

The HandyNotes "Add Handy Note" dialog box is appearing under the main map, instead of over it. The box's strata may need adjusting.

There are several problems associated since 4.03a with HandyNotes, most notably the missing update of the Astrolabe library (at least in german locale). Someone worked on them (http://www.wowinterface.com/download...fanupdate.html) - maybe his work could speed up the update process? The new flight points are missing too.

Are you working on an update, Xinhuan, or do we have to look for another notes addon? I know there is probably a lot of work involved but a short notice would be nice.

Try HandyNotes (tempfix) for the Astrolabe-1.0 update.

Those are added by HandyNotes_FlightMasters which I have not touched.

I would like to thank everyone for the support shown while I was too busy to find time to fix this addon.

My next focus would be to update HandyNotes_FlightMasters and collecting the data for it.

Thanks for the update Xinhuan.

There seems to be a minor bug:
1. Use the /hnnew command without having the map window open.
2. HN Note editing window doesnt appear.
3. Open map with keybind "m"
4. HN Note editing window appears with "m" in the first box.

Another question:
Is it possible to use the /hnnew command with more options for title and symbol?
Like for example /hnnews 30.65,60.87 "Moonelder" "5"?

Or is there a way to edit blocks of data directly into the database?
Or a way to make Handynotes keep the title and icon of the notes? Or to change the standard icon and set a standard title for some time?

Hundreds of Moon Elders and 3 alts to go, sigh ...

I can get the config window to open up, but putting notes on my map is not working anymore.

edit-- aight.... the alt/click to add new note isn't working, but the type add is..... no icon on map or minimap either.

Carbonite Support

Hi Xinhuan,
Love HandyNotes. I know you said a while back (here: http://forums.wowace.com/showthread....788#post191788) that you weren't going to support Carbonite (and I understand why it's a monster to work with!) but as I have already got my head around Carbonite for WorldExplorer I wrote an addon to bridge the gap.
It isn't perfect but it was only written last night! Hope you don't mind!

Anyone who wants to try it and report bugs can do here: http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/handy-notes_carbonite

Regards,

Zas
