This project is abandoned and its default file will likely not work with the most recent version of World of Warcraft. Whether this project is out of date or its author has marked it as abandoned, this project is no longer maintained.
Displays the status dialog from an LDB instead of the minimap icon.
Also, thanks to Antiarc, display a nice tooltip showing how long a role can expect to wait for a group, also shows a text based status for each roll for your proposed group.
1) Option to disable the giant default Blizzard window that appears in the middle of the screen when I mouse over Broker_LFD. It's ugly and (mostly) just duplicates the information in the plugin text and tooltip.
2) Option to show how long you've been in the queue in the tooltip, separate from the option you already have to show that in the plugin text. This would finish rendering the data in the giant Blizzard frame redundant in my setup.
And for the record, I'm very grateful you made this save settings globally instead of per character. Like Pseudopath, my UI is pretty consistent across all my toons, and it drives me crazy when I have to configure things the same way for 15 toons.
Bah, apparently one of the libraries used another library what wasn't included. I believe it should be function now, I've tested with only Broker_LFD and a simple broker display addon as my only addons, so it should work now. If you continue to experience problems I don't believe it's LFD's fault.
@Grilor: Did you join a queue after that, the text is only visible when you are in a queue. I've been away from WoW for about 4 weeks now for various reasons, I'll try and get in and take a look at this if the opportunity permits me to.
i dont have any text for this addon. what i mean is i go in to the congia nd put a check in Endable show text and there is no THDDD on my bar ANYWHERE can you fix please
great addon anyway you could add a sound like the addon Dungeons Ready , so i can cut back to just 1 addon. It just makes a "dungeons Ready" sound when teh DG pops.
Honestly I agree with the author. Why not just copy the Broker_LFD.lua file from your saved variables folder from your main toon and put it in the folder for all your other toons? Yes, I have a pretty consistent UI across most of my toons, but I don't see the point in having a lot of extra overhead for something so small. In addition, most broker displays have profiles and *should* be able to copy those same settings to each toon you want to have the same profile on. Unless there's some option that isn't handled by the broker display that you're referring to.
Although I cant speak for every player I do know that my UI is pretty consistent across all my Alts (with minor class specific differences) so I would really appreciate the account wide settings. Would it be worth me posting a suggestion on the main Curse page to test the water so to speak?
I didn't want to use the DB profiling system, felt a little overkill. Do you all think that a single account settings would be preferred over characters settings?
It seems that you also need to add LFD:RegisterEvent("LFG_ROLE_CHECK_SHOW") LFD:RegisterEvent("LFG_ROLE_CHECK_UPDATE") or the minimap button is shown when you are joining the queue as partial or full group and rolecheck is shown.
Oh no, I don't want it in the corner, I just have OCD and when the teleport tooltip shows below my info bar, when all the rest of my tooltips appear above it annoys me. Not a big deal at all, I assure you!
Would it be possible to get a click combination to teleport in/out or leave queue, whatever the current option is in the dropdown? Like a shift+click would use the option.
I use NinjaPanel to display my LDB's, I really like this mod however, when the mouse curse moves out of Broker_LFD, the statusFrame:Hide() in LFD.obj.OnLeave(self) does not seem to work.
I have to right click on the mod in the bar to bring the menu and make sure I don't mouse over it again for it to hide.
I arranged my data addons in a single _horizontal_ line. As my cursor getting out of the Broker_LFD region, the horizontal movement(moving cursor to another broker object) seems to work well with code, but vertical movement(direct out of the LDB region) keeps it from being hidden. Hope this would help!
Is there a way you can add to the display, how long we've actually been in the current queue for? Like BattlegroundFu displays how long we are in the queue - very helpful especially if you are very forgettful..lol
@Yutaka: Done and Done, next time feel free to open up a ticket with feature requests.
I have two suggestions for this addon:
1) Option to disable the giant default Blizzard window that appears in the middle of the screen when I mouse over Broker_LFD. It's ugly and (mostly) just duplicates the information in the plugin text and tooltip.
2) Option to show how long you've been in the queue in the tooltip, separate from the option you already have to show that in the plugin text. This would finish rendering the data in the giant Blizzard frame redundant in my setup.

Thanks but this time it threw massive amounts of errors.
@warcraftic: Can't believe nobody had that problem before. Should be fixed in r36 or v1.2.1. Sorry about that.
Spawns an error when when I remove Broker_Factions:

- Pseudopath.

The status tooltip scale option appears to be charachter specific, could it be made account wide?
EDIT - as are all the configurable options. same for those too?
- Pseudopath.
LFD:RegisterEvent("LFG_ROLE_CHECK_SHOW")
LFD:RegisterEvent("LFG_ROLE_CHECK_UPDATE")
or the minimap button is shown when you are joining the queue as partial or full group and rolecheck is shown.
