BlizzMove
This addon makes the Blizzard windows movable.
To temporarily move a window, just click the title of the window and drag it to where you want it. Shift + right-click resets the position.
Use ctrl + scroll wheel over a window title to adjust the scale of the window. Ctrl + right-click resets the scale.
Use alt + drag to detach child frames from their parent. Alt + right-click re-attaches the child frame. (Examples of child windows are calendar event info frames, and similar)
Demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jPcpkQjCTZU
Limitations:
- The default Blizzard separate bag frames are not movable - the default combined bag frame is movable
- BlizzMove does not disable Blizzard's built-in panel positioning logic. This means that opening, for example a profession window, might close or move other windows. To disable this default Blizzard behaviour, you can install No Auto Close.
- Due to a blizzard bug, there are issues when you rescale the map in retail. This cannot be fixed by us, and if you want it to work, let blizzard know.
Access some in-game options, by typing /bm in chat.
You may look for additional plugins here.
Please use the issue tracker on GitHub if you have issues.
Join the BlizzMove discord.
Developers can hook their own frames into BlizzMove, to let us handle all the work to make your frames movable 🙂.

Posted Aug 5, 2024In reply to We_are_Borg: you can disable specific frames in the settings if needed
sounds like some other addon is also playing bad, I've never seen any such issues myself, nor seen any similar complaints

Posted Jul 28, 2024Hi, just wondering what I might be missing if Blizzmove will not move my combined bag. Even with all other addons disabled, I can't move the bag frame. It worked for me before 11.0, but doesn't now. =(

Posted Jul 5, 2024I use this addon to move all my windows to the centre of my screen due to using an ultrawide display. Addon works great for this but I would like to know if there is any way of knowing what the coordinates of each window I move are, so I can perfectly center everything.
At the moment, I am moving each window by eye to where it looks centered, but im sure some windows are slightly off centre.

Posted May 31, 2024Does this allow you to move the loot alerts that show up in the middle of the screen?
Not the actual window showing your loot, the alerts that show when you win something good from a raid or boss.

Posted Mar 16, 2024Hey Numedain, I see you're the one updating BlizzMove (even though the owner of the addon is kiatra_), thus I have a question if you don't mind:
Kiatra has another addon, EpicMusicPlayer, but the last version of that addon is from 10.0.7, and sadly has some bugs :|
Thus, I was wondering if you can't talk to kiatra and, if you can / want to, also update that addon to 10.2.5/6?
Thanks for your work on this addon alone, it's been great having it <3 can't count enough the times when I just dragged stuff from the UI because I needed to drag, which, before this addon, I was just cursing / closing and opening multitudes of times new windows etc :)

you can try asking her on discord, though your chances are quite low, unless the bugs are trivial
I only help maintaining blizzmove, because I love it as much as you do :D

nevertheless, blizzard seems to have fixed it in 10.2.7

Posted Feb 20, 2024I would really like an option "do not remember" for frame scales. I kind of mentally expect to see my windows a certain way when I open them and I don't really like my previous configuration affecting this :/
Also maybe an option to prevent windows from being dragged out of the screen?
Good addon nonetheless
