I downloaded and checked out what SuperMacro does. The error only appears when you use a super macro from the addon (which makes since, because the super macro you're using is NOT a typical macro, and is just a link to code that Super Macro creates). So, if you're going to use the super macros, you won't be able to attach them to the sphere. I'll investigate a way to add support for SuperMacro, but honestly ... I don't like the idea. If the SuperMacro author changes something, LunarSphere would then need to be updated to find those changes and, well ... I don't like having LunarSphere being dependant on another addon, especially if it could break LS. So, all I can say is: Don't use a "super macro" macro in LS It only supports normal macros Thankyou for your comments on Supermacro. Not that I use it much since Blizz rearranged the Conditionals on the Macro commands, but it was useful all the same. So I'll have to pull off the Extended Macros and remove Supermacro, no big loss. I have noticed one more problem though. And it is based on the same Conditionals mentioned above. The Icon for the Macro that can be based on a conditional, does not show beyond a logout. Stays with the '?'. for example - #show [equipped:Thrown] Throw; Shoot /cast [equipped:Thrown] Throw; Shoot /stopmacro [equipped:Bows/Crossbows/Guns/Thrown/Wands] /Say Hey!, has anyone seend my Ranged Weapons? I seem to have lost mine. Have also changed to Thrown weapons, and the Icon stayed the same. Perhaps document a fixed #show command without the conditionals. Loving the Addon though. Especially as it can be used by all classes. Freed up several Buttons on the bars, by moving the Professions into it's own menu.

Have a great day Moon and thanks for all the great additions in this release u rock ;D Ele Ele, was wondering where you get your "personalities" made at?

I seem to have lost mine. Have also changed to Thrown weapons, and the Icon stayed the same. Perhaps document a fixed #show command without the conditionals. I need to check and find out if any events are fired when a macro's icon changes. If there is one, I can update the icon as needed. What LunarSphere does is take whatever your original macro's texture is and saves it. Then, it just applies it to the button on start-up. If you change the macro's icon via normal means or by conditionals, it doesn't update since LS doesn't look for that type of update (yet). I'll have something in place to address that soon Which is funny when you think about it. You can press a button in the standard WOW UI to bring up your spell book, and then click the profession you want to open. The menu is essentially the same thing. But, one thing that the LunarSphere's method does to one-up the default UI is that you don't have this giant window appear when you want to select your profession, just a tiny little button. I tiny little button that will one day also display your current profession level, if you so desire ;D

yeah the standard book is a much more cumbersome menu system because it has many useless icons in there like passive skills and old ranking spells etc... besides to always have that open during combat is a nightmare especially if u have that and a bag and the macro screen.... lol.... that would be unplayable almost.. hence people used to use the side action bars b4 lunarsphere

Moon: I have noticed a problem getting mail from the mail box when you have mail before the money mail if you don't have both options checked... It won't let me get any mail at all. Turn off the option completely and it works fine Dunno if maybe it's a conflict of mods with the CT Mail Mod or not...

I'll download CTmod and see what's up. The mail is grabbed, starting at the bottom of the mail list (page 7 is the last page) and then moves up. Maybe CTmod surpresses some stuff ... *shrug*

I'm still waiting for some mail to test with LS and CTMod running at the same time. If you had 50 items in your mail box, and your first and only item with money attached was on your first page on the mail screen, LunarSphere would take some time to get to it, since it searches your mail backwards (starts with the last piece of mail and moves up). LS would check a mail message every .1 second, from the bottom, and even if it didn't find a message with money, it would wait another .1 second and search the next one. I changed the code so it will only wait .1 second if and only if it finds mail that you have selected to grab (there should no longer be a delay). This delay is strickly to prevent the "mail error" messages from appearing. If they appear, it should be rare and not NEARLY as frequent as if I did it the other way (i.e., no wait time). Oh, I should probably mention: "Mail with money attached" works only for auction mails. All those "Auction Success," "Auction Outbid," and "Auction Removed" mails are caught. I didn't catch the player mails that have money because, unless that person told you how much you'd be receiving, you would not have any clue and there could be issues that might pop up. As for "Mail with items attached" ... same thing. Only grabs auction mails ("Auction won" and "Auction Expired"). I think I forgot to mention that ... can't wait to have full tooltip support on my settings windows, haha.

Mmk, once again if this was mentioned I'm sorry. I can't click some of the buttons correctly. Edit: And yes, I was in a mountable area when I tried to click the bottom button. I'll mess around a bit more. I'm hoping this can be changed in stage 4 ^-^.

Interesting. I'll take a look when I get home and see if I can replicate it (by hiding the original UI and stuff like that). If I can't reproduce the issue, I might need a little more info. Mainly, could you let me know if you have any other addons that hide the bottom bar, or any part of the bottom bar of the default UI? Oh, and you can you click the button if you move the sphere up, to say ... the middle of the screen? (My guess is that part of the default UI is getting in the way, and is not hidden with the "hide" command, but rather, has it's alpha set to 0, which would mean it would still take clicks, haha. Thanks for the info, looking forward to that info

Moon,
in the event that it is "behind" the default UI adding a strata adjustment to LS would solve that issue by allowing people to place the sphere "on top" of everything else.
Personally I have not experienced cleo's error myself with LS and I use CT_Mod to hide and move my current action bars, etc. and have the discord art mod running.

I originally had the strata raised, but it would overtake all the bag windows when the windows were open (which drove some people nuts), so I dropped the strata to default again.
I guess I could add an option in LS: "Always on top" (god, that sounds like a Windows program, haha) which would raise the strata...

haha love the windows poke I have several mods which allow the end user to adjust the strata manually ensuring that it does not cover something else but is in the right "place" to function properly. the ones i'm referring to are Ace2 mods, however I do not think it is based on the Ace2 libs to function, instead of making it a fixed position like "always on top" you could make it a variable from say 1 to 5 then in the options tabs we could enter the appropriate strata till it was in the right place. Discord Mods also use the strata functionality for placing the artwork: background low medium high dialog maybe peeking at their code would give you insight to the structure needed for LS to emulate this also. here's a link to the Discord Mod files on my public fileden share if you want to take a peek at it: DART 1.52.zipEle

Okay, your information. I tried this on two accounts. You can only click the buttons above the original UI's line, and by click I mean get the hover color and be able to use whatever the button does. Both the menu buttons and the submenu buttons can only be activated above this line, so I'm guessing making the Lunar Sphere go always on top would fix the issue. The only mod I use that modifies the UI is your mod, and I use the settings on Lunar Sphere to remove the original UI. Moving the Lunar Sphere higher fixes it, but I don't want my Lunar Sphere that high.

Okies That's all the info I needed. I'll test it out when I get home and see what I can do to address the issue. If need be, I'll add the "modify strata" feature as well.

Oh and of note... It seems that the unable to get mail only occurs when I have more then one page of mail... Since CT Mod pulls from first item in your mail to the end instead of from the end to the top... I dunno if that's the problem or not.

@ cleolump Okay, I isolated the issue with the buttons not clicking when below that line with most or all of the bottom bar hidden. There is a frame down there, "MainMenuBar," which embodies the entire bottom bar (but is invisible, imagine that). To address the issue, I will make the "Hide Bottom Bar" feature disable mouse support for the MainMenuBar. The MainMenuBar doesn't do anything with mouse clicks, other than make sure EVERYTHING on the bar is raised to the visible layer if it is clicked. It's ... pointless, really. So, I am adding a small line of code to fix the problem. I also noticed that if you hide the MainMenuBar, all features of the bottom bar go away and they don't pop up again (like the EXP bar issue, and the action bars popping up when you select a spell from your spell book, etc). So, I'll be changing the "Hide UI" part of the Other tab to include "Hide Bottom Bar Art" and "Hide Entire Bottom Bar" I will be removing some hide features as well and reorganizing it. These extra changes won't be available until Stage 4. However, I will be releasing a patch for Stage 3 tonight that will fix the bottom bar issue for you, as well as a BUNCH of other things that have been driving me crazy. laraniaI'm releasing a patch for Stage 3 tonight that has new mail updating code, and other stuff. Give it a whirl and let me know what's up I've tested it with CTmod loaded and the mail seemed to be pulled just fine. Obviously, it might not be a good idea to let LunarSphere grab the mail, and then click the "Open All" button for CTmod ... but that's a given

I might have found a bug... as you can see in the screen shot I have heavy netherweave bandages in my bags, super mana pots, bottled nethergon energy, purified draenic water, and pure energy...however the only items that are recognized in the item printout are my three mounts and hearthstone: I'm using Bagnon for my bag management system not sure if that is a factor; however, some items as I said are being recognized so..hmmm..kinda stumped. I'll test with mod turned off and see if there is a difference in the printout; I just wanted to post this as a heads up to you Moon soon as I could. Back with more info in a min or two. Ele

okay i think it is a bug (or I misunderstood the change log and I'm expecting to see something I shouldn't) even with Bag mod turned off, Item Printout is still only showing my 3 mounts and hearthstone sorry to be a bearer of bad news.....(/me hopes I misunderstood the change log) Ele
