Width, Height, and Scale
The new version for Legion has been updated to dynamically size the points based on your container size. This was done due to all the talents that change the number of points. Here's how this works.
- Set a Height and Width for the Point container
- Based on the maximum number of points available, the individual points will take up a proportional space
That's great... How do I get back to normal?
Here's an example of how to use the new options:
- You want 20x20 square icons and 5 pixels of spacing between them.
- Your class has six points.
- Set Height to 20 and Width to 150
- 150 = (20 * 6) + (5 * 6)
- You can then set a Scale to make this bigger or smaller too
In general:
- Set the Height to your desired Point height
- Calculate the Width
- Point Width * Max Points + Point Spacing * Max Points
Feedback
Important notice: since v3.2.6, ComboPointsRedux embeds BugGrabber, an error catching addon. Please check the error is really about ComboPointsRedux before reporting them here. I suggest installing BugSack to catch the errors.
Please report any bug or error using the WowAce bug tracker (your Curse account works there). The comments section below is not meant to report and track bugs.
Some words about submitting bug reports:
- I do not care about “it doesn’t work, fix it!” messages. I need to know how it failed and a way to reproduce the bug so I can test it and make sure I fix it.
- Bug reports are not in the “fire and forget” kind of things. I may have to ask you some details.
- Please check all existing tickets and the “known issues” section below before submitting new ones. Duplicate reports will be rejected on sight.
If you want another module for a spell please file them as tickets on WowAce. It makes my life easier!
Localization
Currently the addon will work in all locales, but the options screen is not translated on all clients. If you would like to help translate the options screen you can submit translations with the new localization tool at wowace.
Hi folks,
I decided to write a short guide to the new Height and Width options and how they are supposed to work. Those options are for the entire container that holds the individual points. Point height and width are calculated from the overall frame size (then multiplied by Scale). For example:
Please note, Orientation does not apply here. When you're in Vertical mode, CPR flips the Height and Width.
Been using this addon forever but as of latest patch the Graphics are huge and badly scaled? I can't seem to change the size of the actual graphics (Rogue Combo Point in this case) either. Also, on my Windwalker using the Ascension talent causes an array of angry LUA errors when I get to six Chi.
Anyone looking at this? Cheers! <3
Yeah there is something wrong with the UI not being able to show the points vertical either and my scaling is all over the place since the latest update.
Hi, the way the graphics scale was redone to allow you to set the width and height of the points individually. Previously the points were always square.
Try deleting the saved variables and redoing the setup. I'll also review the vertical setup, we probably skipped that in testing.
The latest update fixed my vertical issue and after some fiddling its back to normal. Thanks for your efforts. Is there any where we can donate, I think I've been using this since Cataclysm so I feel you deserve something.
Cheers
P.S Nevermind I found the button, donated $15
Thank you!
Devius reported an Ascension bug and that should be fixed. I'll double check.
Can you open a ticket on WoWAce or post a link to a screenshot of the errors?
Finally, same advice I gave Chemii, we rewrote the scaling code, you might need to redo your setup so it works with the new way we draw the points.
I just ran around on my Windwalker with Ascension and saw zero errors, going to 6 points worked correctly. Please also see my post above about scaling and the height/width changes. That might resolve your issue with vertical points.
Really love your addon and been using it forever. Since 7 though I can't play my monk properly since with the ascension talent I cannot see a sixth chi point. With the last version I no longer get an error at six chi and I can see the number six if I enable the text but still only get five points. Also when I reach six chi points it uses the new 0 point coloring but still with five.
Edit : After changing the 0 chi point color I found out it's not using the 0 color but rather the default yellow color.
I'll push an update out tonight that should fix it. I don't actually have a monk myself, so they never got tested.
Thanks for the quick fix. It works great now :)
First of all a big 'Thank you' to you for this great addon and all the time and development you've put into it!
However since yesterday's update it's behaving unreliable every now and then. I as well encounter the custom colours-troubles with CPs 'askewzero' already wrote about. I've set it so that first 4 CPs are blue, 5th is purple, 6th is red. Most of the time it works this way, but sometimes 5th stays blue and/or 6th is purple. Sometimes CP-text doesn't show up unless I have something in target, occasionally it doesn't show up at all.
After re-configuring I actually enjoy the new customization options, great job! But is there a way to get rid of the '0' when there are no CPs (both in and out of combat)?
Hi, thanks for the feedback. It should be easy to make the zero text disappear, I should be able to push that out tonight.
I'll keep reviewing the coloring code, there have been a lot of changes to that logic as part of the better support for talents that change the maximum number of points.
I appreciate your patience while we improve the customization options. :)
The new release should hopefully resolve your issues. I attacked a target dummy for a solid 10 minutes with your color scheme and never saw the wrong color. There is also a new option, on by default, to hide the Text at zero points.
Wow, that was quick! Spent some time at the target dummy as well as out in the fields and yes, works flawlessly again, perfect! Thank you very much <3
My cp bar is broken after todays update. They scale very big now. Did youve changed the width scaling ? 250 was baseline and now i need to set it on 199.4 for the same as before.
Yes, there are extra options for setting height and width (before it was forced to a square). This probably affected the scaling a little.
Is it actually broken? Or now that you've adjusted the scale everything is fine?
Today's update broke custom colors for the icons. I used to be yellow until 4 points, orange at 5, and red at 6. However the only color that is applying is the yellow.
Fix is coming, sorry for letting that slip through. All my setups use the same color, so I did not notice the faulty logic.
I see you reply quickly to all the posts in comment. and the add-on is very useful. Thank you for making it and keeping it up to date!!
