    uploaded v2.0

    changes:

     

    • ElvUI support
    • skipped creation of arrow buttons for standard action bar's buttons while ElvUI or Bartender4 found (reduced memory usage)

     

  • #61

    any way you can add supports for Elvui AcrionBars. it does not work with it

  • #62

    I tried, but there some conflict with standard action bars (which ElvUI replacing, Lua error). Well, I wasn't trying too hard, because not playing WoW anymore, ElvUI 3 first action bars addon causing such errors and donations still zero after several months (so there is no reasons to continue supporting). Maybe I'll look at ElvUI some day, but maybe this is ElvUI 3 problem.

  • #60

    Add support for ElvUI 3.+ pls. This addon works with old version ElvUI. Thx for your help

  • #58

    I hope to see an update for WoW 4.3  This is a nice and simple little program.

    I do have a question.  I tried to load armor sets from Blizzards Equipment Manager and ound that they would not land into the button list.  How do I use the Fly button to swap the clothes?  I would like to have one button control over the sets and reclaim some more button space.

    I use Blizzard's button bars.

    Thank you for your time and effort.

  • #59

    Equipment sets support added in v 1.98 (frequently near 12 hours of approval after upload)

  • #57

    Could you please update for 4.3?  Love this little mod. :)

    Hello,

     

    Using current addon version download and running it with Bartender 4.  As soon as I start trying to "spam" cast my spells in combat my FPS goes from 60+ to 5.  Is there some sort of leak in the addon?  I even logged out and disabled the addon, went back into game and started combat and my FPS was fine.

     

    Thanks

    Noone reported such problems yet. However you can try to use FunctionProfiler addon to find what exactly causes low FPS problems (maybe this addon with something else).

  • #56

    Thanks for research.

  • #55

    Follow-up to my FPS issues.  I turned your addon On and disabled all other addons and my FPS was fine in combat.  I tried my addons one at a time with your addon and found out that it is Bartender4 that is causing the FPS issue.  So when I have only FlyoutButton Custom and Bartender4 on I expeirence the huge FPS drop while casting in combat.

     

    Thanks

    Excellent addon man. Highly recommended for players wanting a clean and/or minimal GUI. The install is as simple as they come and setup is straight forward and as quick as you can place buttons.  It required 213Kb (memory) with a fresh install and after setup only consumed 277Kb. Good stuff! :)

    Lovely addon, very nice in saving bar space for actions not needed most of the time (depending on how you play)

    My questions is :
    I cannot seem to bind a key to the Flyout arrow.

    I click on "kb" from the menu then I hover my mouse over the little Flyout arrow and then I press the key I want which is
    "," but nothing happens, I even downloaded the Libkeybound files.

    How can I bind a key to the flyout arrow.

    Another workaround I was trying was to make an empty macro with an icon, that I wanted, and place that in the action bar with a flyout arrow button; but that doesn't work either.

    Is there a function where you can make a macro with a flyout command that opens the flyout bar based on a keybind?
  • #51
    No, you can't bind to arrow buttons. I will think about is this possible to implement.
  • #49
    This is exactly what I was looking for! TY & GJ man!
