Re: Cant close the plugin box

Until the author makes such a change, there's a work-around you could try if you're feeling brave enough. If you navigate to the directory where you installed the plugin (probably something like RadicusPlugins/SocialGuy/) Then you need to open the Window.lua file (windows Notepad can open this if you need to select a programme).

You should see the code is written in blocks, the fourth block down looks something like this:

Code:
-- Default Row/Column Values
maxrows = 24; -- change to set the maximum number of rows
startypos = 35; -- starting y position
xpos = 25; -- current x position
ypos = startypos; -- current y position
yinc = 25; -- increment y for each row
xinc = 155; -- increment the x width for each column
row = 1; -- current row
col = 1; -- current column
What you could do is modify the 'maxrows' value from 24 to something lower so that it doesn't fill the entire screen vertically. However you may end up with the plugin being incredibly wide instead - but at least you'll be able to see the top bar to move it around. Experiment with this value to see what works for you.

As this plugin has a lot of potential to expand to include new emotes it may be a good idea for the author to put the emotes in a scrolling listbox instead so the window size can be fixed rather than dynamic.

Ok I really feel like an idiot... I cant get the plugin box to close. When I loaded the plugin it took up my whole screen except for the very edges & it's up so high I can't get to the x button to close it.

I've tried fullscreen & windowed versions of LOTRO & I still cant get to the close button on the plugin. I can't get the plugin to move at all on the screen either & Ive tried uninstalling it & reinstalling & it still opens back up in the same place.

this makes me really sad b/c this seems to be a really good plugin & I would like to be able to use it, but once I have it open there's no way to accept my settings & close it so maybe a good thing to add would be an accept button on the bottom of the screen and/or a way to minimize it.

If Ive overlooked something please let me know, as I would luv to be able to use this plugin
