and what about the requirement to increase the number of notes?
so now is max. number of notes 10 and I would like to increase them to max. number of 20

Chiran

Indeed, looks like it is nowadays broken somehow. I can try to find out why, but can't promise a fix yet.

I wanted to load the picture into notes, but no format wants to take it. I tried .jpg .gif .png so I want to ask what kind of picture format does it accept?

vecny.samotar

please increase the number of bookmarks the number of 10 is small and the possibility to change the size of the addon icon (plugin)

Can confirm Esc doesn't work (the in-game menu opens, but Lotropad doesn't disappear).

In the same idea, I'd like for keyboard shortcut to work, like ctrl+Z to cancel last change, or ctrl+Y to re-do it.

Chiran

Actually it should work even now? Although esc does also display the normal in-game esc menu, which is inconvenient. Not sure if it's possible to prevent that, probably not.

Rhanti

Don't know if it's doable, or even if people would find it useful, but would it be possible to close the window using the esc key?

Just a user-to-user tip: Cross Alt Info

You always remember absolutely everything you could possibly need across all your alts, right? So you remember what type of armor(s) your Burglar can wear? Or whether your Jeweler can make T6 stuff? Can your Champion use that random drop? Which character is holding all those Essences you've been collecting?

Well, perhaps something like this info kept permanently (and periodically updated) on one of the tabs in LotroPad can help.

Some comments:

• The "Cook & Farmer" part tells me which profession(s) my character performs (not all my characters are trained up on all 3 professions - for instance; that is what the Tailor entry means he's a T1 and doesn't need any mats).
• The "Yeoman" tells me the name of this profession combo so that when I need to get a new tool for the character I remember to get the right one!
• The "Heavy" part is the highest value armor the character can use.
• Then I list the professions known (cause I don't ever remember this) the Tier level and any mats needed (in this case, I'm maxed; otherwise I might have "T7 Riddermark" for Tailor letting me know tier # and the hides I need).
• "Guilded" lets me know if the character is a Guild member and has access to the Guild Recipes.
• "Inventory" and "Vault" both show the number of slots the character has available, and shows if they're maxed out. Good to know if LotRO has a sale.
• Finally I list any class of items that the character is storing in it's vault, like Essences, so that when I need to find an Essence, I don't need to hunt through all of my characters. While you can use other plugins to keep track of inventory, perhaps you don't want the overhead and delay while that plugin does its thing. This allows a quicky way to handle things, knowing in general which character to search - but at the cost of not being able to know exactly what the character has stored.
• Although there is no entry for it above, you could keep track of any Factions that can still use Rep Items.

Just don't get too "columny" because LotroPad uses the game font - which is a proportional font. So nothing will line up perfectly; a pixel or three, here or there, is as close as you'll get.

This effort is sometime made easier by creating it in another text editor for initial layout and ease of use. Then copy and paste into LotroPad and adjust as needed. Try not to get too frustrated.

Many Thanks, that helped.

Chiran

Issue should be resolved if you delete LotropadSettings.plugindata. This doesn't delete the data, but it resets window position and such. The file is at 'The Lord of the Rings Online\PluginData\<lotrouser>\AllServers\'. Unload the plugin first before deleting, or do it when the game is not running.

Hello!

Since some months, I have the problem, when opening Lotropad, that the upper third of the Window, is beyond the upper screen edge. Therefore I can't move it or close it and I can not reach the first two notes.
I have already tried to change the solution of the game and of windows, but that didn't help.

In the beginning just the Top of the Lotropad window was beyond the screen, I couldn't move and close it, but I could use all notes and switch it on and of with the addon manager. But since then it has moved up.

Can anybody tell me what I can do to solve this problem?

Chiran

Hi Ghildemor,

It looks like one of the notes has a background image set and for some reason it cannot find the image file. So you should copy the image to \The Lord of the Rings Online\Plugins\Chiran\Lotropad\images\ directory. Or you can also fix it by manually editing \The Lord of the Rings Online\PluginData\chiraneu\AllServers\LotropadData .plugindata. There you need to find a line with the broken image link.

So for example
["ImageFile"] = "image.jpg"
delete image.jpg from there, so that it reads
["ImageFile"] = ""
and save the file

Hope it helps,

Chiran

.gs Online\Plugins\Chiran\Lotropad\LotropadWindow.lua: 622: Failed to load background image.

Thanks Chiron mine was the two -- in the front of line 199. the tekt infore that line was --self.textInput:SetBackground( "Chiran/Lotropad/images/" .. NoteDB[sBank .. "". _" .. sSlot].ImageFile );

Chiran

Yeah, obviously. I guess I wasn't aware of it back then and haven't really touched that since . I was planning for a complete revamp of the plugin, but yes.. it may happen! :P
