About Imhothar's Bags

General Information

Imhothar's Bags is there to ease the management of your items accross multiple characters and adds some little "extras" to your UI. Due to current API limitations it does not do what it was originally intended for (namely replacing the default inventory windows) but rest assured that is to be added as soon as the Addon API allows it.

Until then you get the advantage of having all your items displayed in one window, so you get a nice overview of your belongings. You can look at the contents of your bank even while out in the wilderness, and inspect the items of your offline characters.

The nice little "extras" include:

Features

  • Display all backpack, bank, currency, equipped and wardrobe items each in a separate large window.
  • View all your and your offline characters' items from anywhere you are.
  • View the items of all guilds any of your characters is a member of.
  • Items can grouped by category, bags or not at all ("all-in-one").
  • Items can be sorted by name, icon, rarity or by slot.
  • Empty slots are not displayed to save space. Instead the number in the top-right shows the number of empty slots.
  • Access the inventory of all your characters on the shard anytime. You need to log into each character in order for their data to become available. Tracks all accounts.
  • Condense multiple full stacks of the same item into one button for saving screen space.
  • The windows can be moved anywhere you wish and resized.
  • Adds a summary to item tooltips showing you whether any of your characters already own the displayed item.
  • Displays the number of empty slots on the bags bar making it easier to know when visiting a merchant becomes necessary.
  • Search the entire item database to find out whether your characters already own a specific item.

Slash commands

/imhobags menu
Open a little menu at your cursor from where you can open all the item windows of all your characters.
This works great if put into a macro.

Public API

There is a public API which can be used by other addons and might get extended in the future as required.
Details about it can be found on the Public API page.

What the Addon is not (yet)

The current Rift API imposes some limitations on what the Addon can do. Thus the followig features are unfortunately not possible at this time. But the code is largely prepared to support them as soon as the API becomes available!

  • The ImhoBags windows cannot hide the default Trion windows.
  • The highlights for newly acquired items are missing.

Known issues

The complete list can now be viewed in-game in the Config Window.

0.14beta

FEATURES:
* Items are now stored for all accounts.
* Some item locations now support multiple types of views:
    - default: This is the way you know it with items grouped by AH category.
    - bags: Group items by the bag they are located in.
    - onebag: No item grouping whatsoever, all items in a single group.
* You can now sort your items by the bag slot they are placed in.
* It is now possible to show the empty slots as concrete items in the bag
    windows by clicking the empty item count in the top right corner.
* "All-In-One": setting your layout to "onebag", the sorting to "slot"
    and showing empty items gives you the well known "onebag" layout.
* Item animations giving clues about where a category or item moves to.
CHANGES:
* The "showEnemyFaction" option was removed as it is obsolete now.
* The "packGroups" option was removed and groups are always packed now.
* The mail window is no longer there. Get a dedicated mail addon if you want one.
    The addon still tracks items in mails for tooltips.
FIXES:
* Dimension items no longer cause errors.
* Performance warning in search window should be gone now.
ISSUES:
* This information can now be viewed in the config window in-game.

    How can I bring up the new window?

    They should appear whenever you open the default Bags by default. If not then there's some error preventing that from happening or they were disabled in the configuration. In the former case it would be helpful to get the error message.

    Love love love this addon! Can't live without it and with the new ability to use from the bag, it's world class!

    I downloaded the new version and it seemed to be working fine, but when I zoned to Ember Isle, I got an error:

    Error: performance warning
        In ImhoBags / ItemWindowBase_systemUpdateBegin
    stack traceback:
        ImhoBags/frames/ItemButton_simple.lua:108: in function 'SetBound'
        ImhoBags/frames/ItemButton.lua:121: in function 'SetItem'
        ImhoBags/windows/ItemWindowBase.lua:235: in function 'renderItems'
        ImhoBags/windows/ItemWindowBase.lua:283: in function 'base_update'
        ImhoBags/windows/ItemWindow.lua:198: in function <ImhoBags/windows/ItemWindow.lua:196>

    Ugh! Now I just got this on login:

    Error: performance warning
        In ImhoBags / systemUpdateBegin
    stack traceback:
        ImhoBags/ItemMatrix.lua:28: in function 'GetUnsortedItems'

    You will probably see these performance warning pup up randomly in many addons.

    1.9 introduced the Watchdog, which raises these warnings if addons are using up too much time. The problem here is, that for every event you have a queue of addons that want to do their work, and the last addon in this queue has to bite the bullet as it has only little time left. This depends alot on the combination of addons you have installed and is difficult to avoid unless the Watchdog gets changed so it tracks each addon individually.

    New version 0.12beta is out guys.

    Biggest change is you can now actually left/right click items and use them properly! But replacing the default windows is unfortunately still not possible.

    Next big thing is "/imhobags menu" which opens a nice little menu at your cursor with all your character inventories for quick access. Putting it in a macro is win!

    For other changes check the changelog if interested.

    Please ignore for now any errors giving you "performance warnings". As soon as the European servers have been patched and I had time to do some testing on live servers an update is coming out with many fixes and goodies.

    1.9 Update

    One of my favorite addons. I can't live without it! It needs an update for 1.9 though. Is there one incoming?

    One comment says it's running slowly and the rest of the errors follow:

    Error: performance warning
        In ImhoBags / ItemWindowBase_systemUpdateBegin
    stack traceback:
        [C]: in function 'createFrame_core'
        ImhoBags/frames/ItemButton_simple.lua:170: in function 'New'

        ImhoBags/frames/ItemButton.lua:141: in function 'New'
        ImhoBags/windows/ItemWindowBase.lua:196: in function 'getButton'
        ImhoBags/windows/ItemWindowBase.lua:210: in function 'renderItems'

    Don't know what I'd do without this addon. Thanks so much for all your hard work!

  • #94

    Great addon.  Can't wait for full functionality.

    One small bug I noticed... the addon's own tooltips seem anchored to the top left of my screen instead of appearing in the tooltip location specified in my layout.

  • #96

    That is a bug in the addon system and nothing I can fix myself.

    Besides, there is currently new stuff on the test server that looks very promising.

    I can confirm that too.

    Hoping you will continue this addon.

    I cant wait until this addon can be the ui for my bags. I would love to have it so organized

  • #92

    Just a quick note to say Thanks for the awesome addon. I look forward to the next update. :)

  • #91

    Just a little heads up for everyone:

    I'm currently rather busy with other stuff but have taken all the input here and they are partially implemented. Expect an udpate in 2-3 weeks.

  • #90

    Feature request: I can hover over most items, including currency other than cash (plat/gold/silver) and see a popup showing what all my alts have of that currency and how much it totals. I'd really, really love a way to see that for cash so I can see how much money I could pull together if I needed to. Perhaps on hovertext for the cash section of the currency window?
