Any issues out there with Beta2? I hear there is an Extension Bar issue, but is anyone seeing issues dragging and dropping shortcuts? Anyone using DragBar? I heard one person complain about performance, is anyone else seeing a degradation since using DragBars (I don't seem to have these issues, so I need your help)? Thanks for the support everyone.

Farothhen, Thank you for everything you have done, I'm sorry that I didn't respond earlier. A lot of things are going on in my RL at the moment and getting to working on this stuff has taken a back seat.

I haven't gotten the new translations, but I have gone back and read your emails and will try to incorporate your code changes into the official v2.5 (time permitting). Thanks again for all your effort and support!!

Did you recevive my two emails with the new german language files? If not, I'll send them again - I think I've updated them during the last weeks.

Just taking a quick second to thank ye for this mega awesome plugin..

also.. wasn't aware you wanted bug reports.. If i see anything "not known" in this new beta i'll let u know but so far all i've had trouble with is the aforementioned forgetfulness of the shortcuts

Sweet work.

All versions of the plugin are available in the box just below the text it's labeled "Archive List (Old Versions)". You should download the v2.4 release and work on that if you would not like to participate in the Beta. I used to post a very large note at the top of the page when I was posting Beta code, but I've fallen out of the habit.

Interestingly enough, I didn't use to run Betas, but I found that I solved a lot of subtle user issues doing so. Now I run at least one every release. This happens to be a large one, because I had checked in code in February and re-picked back up working on it in late April. Some of the features I left in Februrary were not obvious when I was playing around with the newer features (Dragbar for example) so many months later.

In retrospect I should have left plugin after a release, but because it's a project I do for free in my spare time, I just stopped working on it in it's current state, forgetting I had started modifying something... that something happens to be a feature that has tendrels throughout the code and I can't just "fix it" it's more complicated. Fixing it has been my top priority (which is only an hour or two a night, IF).

i hope you will do it soon, it's the most important thing to fix i think

Hello everyone, I'm working through Drag & Drop fixes (to fix some bugs based on older Turbine Code) but the Drag Drop stuff is posing to be a nasty business. But, when I get it working, the bars will work VERY similar to standard bars. AKA, when you drag a shortcut on another shortcut, they will flip-flop... or that's the goal anyway.

Thanks for all the help testing the Beta, sorry for the rocky start, but I havn't touched the code for a few months and forgot about a few projects I was working on for this release. Including the Drag&Drop stuff which broke moving even simple shortcuts.

Sorry man NuclearTonic already posted that,

I'm working on a few known issues with the v2.5_Beta (the most up-to-date download on this site) you can't drag & drop skills on to a bar and have them be saved. I have a fix along with a fix for quite a few other annoyances relating to EasyBars.

I installed the latest version of this plugin today. I spent a good amount of time setting up multiple bars with all of my skills. I logged out and logged back on later. To my disappointment, everything I had done was gone. The bars were still in the same place (even the new bars I created were there), but none of the skills that I added to the bars were there. All of them had been erased.

Can anyone help with this? I love this plugin, but I can't add my skills every time I log in.

That one was simple... add a if (maitre_d ~= nil) then around it... :P

Basically it was trying to check to make sure the bar was not deleted yet, which is done through maitre_d which is the "barManager". So, we need to make sure that maitre_d is an instantiated object when this check is performed.

The hard one was the bars being displayed after leveling. I kept tracing through my Visibility Code thinking it was part of the refresh of the bars that was forcing them all to be visible. Turns out that when I re-freshed the menus after checking EasyBars to determine if new skills were available, the menu was forcing the system into "Quickslot_Mode" meaning it thought that my menus were active. Much more of a pain to find (because it was in a totally different area than I expected).

"Thanks, I just put in protection against this! It'll get into the next Beta."

Dang I wish I could fix my own bugs that fast!

1st off to Tolask,

A couple of Rev.s ago, there was a problem with the resizing of icons causing other problems. I don't remember the specifics off the top of my head, and even searching back I can't find it, but I'm sure someone else can point you to the relevant posts. So in essence, Tonicbars used to do that but doesn't anymore.

2nd to Tonic,

I'm not sure if the number of plugins I use has finally overcome my processor power or if integrating DragBars finally put it over the top, but since I installed this latest update, I can't drag the bars at all without using control \. And when I do, with the TB edit panel open or closed, dragging the bars seems very difficult. They don't move until a minute or so after I move and release the button. Its like my computer can't handle keeping everything loaded at the same time and trying to move the tonicbar tabs with control \.

Now before you ask, I had already had DragBars installed for a long time, again, my spaz brain can't remember how long exactly. And in other plugins I've never had this problem. *Shrugs* I'll go back to the previous version for now, since this is affecting game play.

Hope I explained it clearly enough,
Jeredwolffe

I just started using this today with v2.5

Spent a while setting a bunch of bars up. Logged out and back in later, most of the bars are empty. A few odd items remained in some bars. In my travel bar the 2 housing icons seem to stick. In my mount bar only my goat sticks. And, in my pot bar the power pot sticks.

All bars are locked, which is what my kinmates asked me first. Any ideas?

If it helps I also just today (after setting up my bars) added plugin manager and buffbars.
