About Chinchilla Minimap
Chinchilla Minimap alters the Blizzard Minimap in a way to provide much nicer features and other niceties.
- Appearance
- Allows changing of blip size, border style, shape of the map (doesn't have to be circular, or even square, lots of options are available), size, etc.
- Compass
- A more flexible north-east-south-west indicator.
- Coordinates
- Show your location coordinates.
- Expander
- Make the minimap very big temporarily (good for gathering or finding a tough-to-spot enemy).
- Location
- Show the name of your location more flexibly.
- Move Buttons
- Move the buttons around the minimap to wherever you want (even off the minimap entirely).
- Ping
- Show which team-mate pinged the minimap.
- Position
- Position the minimap and frames around it.
- Range Circle
- Show on the minimap where your range extends to.
- Show / Hide
- Show or hide various frames related to the minimap.
- Tracking Dots
- Change the dots on the map to a different set of images. Very handy, especially if you suffer from colour-blindness
- Zoom
- Use the mouse-wheel to zoom the minimap and zoom out the map automatically after 20 seconds (or so).

I'm not sure if this is a Chinchilla bug, I think it's a Blizzard bug, but I'm hoping Chinchilla can put in a workaround that fixes Blizzard's bug.
Quest POI's. They are incredibly useful when questing, however whenever I log in, it tracks whatever quest I had in the top most slot when I logged in. Only. As I move around the world and other quests become closer (I sort by proximity) it still stays 'locked on' to that one quest. And if I do that one quest, then the quest POI simply fails to work at all for the rest of my gaming session.
Is there any way Chinchilla could 'detect' when the 'closest quest' changes and somehow 'reset' the quest POI tracking so that it continuously shows quest POI for my closest quests?
Alright, I've done some more research and testing. It turns out "QuestHelperLite" was causing this problem.
What I'm trying to figure out how to do now is how to get the closest quest to always be the active quest.
since you have a way to manipulate the quest tracker, why not make it moveable as well, I do not like my map sitting inside the quest objectives trackers :(
If this is possible, then how do you do it?
Go to the Position section of the config. You can find it there, listed as "quest and achievement tracker".
Awesome sir, ty very much! I missed it.
Great map, best I've found. Thanks.

There is nothing I can do about this. One of your other addons is causing the issue and Blizzard's (imho, god-awful) code is blaming Chinchilla.
Chinchilla doesn't touch arena frames or buff frames in any way, shape or form.
Sorry.
The new update from about an hour ago is making all tracking icons, quest icons, any type of icon, blink inside the map. I tried disabling and reenabling the addon, restarted wow a few times. any ideas?
My bad, sorry.
just did an uninstall and reinstall, still blinking icons.
Ugh, thank you. I was about to go file a bug on this. They were on by default for me too.
thanks for the info... why this would be default on though?
eh, figured it out, the new update added or enabled blinking in the options window.
Hi, first of all great addon!!!!
Is there any plan to change minimap opacity with the mouse onhover? It would be great to hide when you dont need it, and show it with just mouseover...
Thanks, bye
Not too sure if anyone has said this yet but the options to hide / show the zone title and zone bar do not work, an easy fix for me was to put a unit frame over it lol. but still would be nice to get rid of it >.<
