New UI in WotLK defeats my mod

[LBXZero]

My addon has the spell book list only the highest ranks spells and displays the available lower rank spells when hovering over the spell button.

The standard spell book in WotLK has a toggle button that switches between showing all spell ranks and showing highest spell ranks.

Should I try to upgrade my addon to WotLK? What can I improve with the new standard spell book?

Is there a more appropiate forum for this thread?

I see it as shedding some light on Blizzard and showing them stuff that could be useful in there own UI

You helped influence them to integrate it into there own UI.

Oh, I hadn't noticed that new option yet for the spellbook...

Do this: play with the new default spellbook for a while and see if it's missing anything that you want it to do or do differently.

Seconded. And don't "admit defeat"... consider it a compliment that your idea was so good they implemented it into the game itself. I've had a number of my addons absorbed into the default UI, and it always makes me happy cause it's one less thing I have to update.

I'm a big fan of the functionality that your mod provides and I think it's pretty awesome that it's being incorporated into the default UI. And as Tek says, it's just one less thing that you or I have to think about updating

I checked out this new feature for the spellbook last night. When you have it enabled, I don't see any way to access lower ranks of your spells. Granted, it's just a checkbox at the top of the window, but... If you like your idea of the popup menus for lower ranks, then find some way to implement that into the spellbook when someone has that option enabled.

I will work on that. Most likely version 2.x will be leaving the main spell book frame alone.

As much as grateful I should be, I feel sad that there is one less thing to do, and I don't know why.
