About ToggleNames

Description

This addon allows the player to select certain conditions on which to turn off guild names, player titles or both in order to make for less clutter on the screen when you are playing with people you know.

The conditions are:

  • Outside
  • In a city (this checks whether the player is resting)
  • In a 5-man dungeon
  • In a raid
  • In a battleground
  • In an arena

Usage

Simply install the addon and look in the ingame addons menu for ToggleNames.

    Does this still work? Just wondering, cos its one great idea for addon. Also would be awesome to always show char names for opposite factions (unless the name plates actually pop out :P)

    I can see the need for an addon like this and think it would be much more popular if this could be changed on the fly without going into settings.

    I would like to have names off all the time, and if I want to see someones name or title or guild name would prefer to just hit a shortcut key or a button my screen and walla! Names appear. This might be to much more coding but if possible I think it would see a nice success rate.

    Hey Egrimm,

    I was thinking. I'd like to have a separate option for each and not have a shared toggle for both.
    For example I'd like to completely disable the display of Player Titles but still be able to display Guild Names in cities and not in battlegrounds.
    So basically have two checkboxes (guild names/player titles) for each "condition".

    Also you forgot to put a proper title in the Options window. It states "ATLAS_TITLE" :)

    I could make all of those changes myself but I guess that I'm kind of lazy :p

    Feu,

    I've changed it, version 0.4 contains separate options for guild names and titles :)

    Nicely done Egrimm! Besides the option panel looks much better :)
    Thank you Sir.

    By the way here is a screenshot if you want to add it to your Curse Project: http://img39.imageshack.us/img39/8992/togglenames.png

    Cheers

    Feu,

    thanks for your comment :) I will look into it, I had actually been considering this feature as well :)

    As for the ATLAS_TITLE.. I could not really find a good resource on how to write config panels so I.. adapted Atlas's panel since that seemed the most clear of the addons I had installed, I hope they won't mind :) Thanks for spotting it.

    Simple but useful. Thanks!

    You're welcome :) I used to always do this stuff by hand so I figured I'd automate it and share it finally ;)
