HandyNotes
Handy Notes for your maps. This addon is intended to be a small and simple framework for showing notes on your map.
Use /handynotes to access options.
You can add notes to the maps in 3 ways:
- Alt-RightClick on the world map to add a note.
- Use "/hnnew" without the quotes to add a note at your current location.
- Use "/hnnew x,y" without the quotes to add a note at location x,y on your current zone's map.
HandyNotes supports plugins that other authors can write to display their own set of notes on the map. See this link for a list of such addons: https://www.curseforge.com/wow/search?search=handynotes

Posted Sep 5, 2016I have a little clarification to add to the note for the treasure in the cave underneath Paledoom's Overlook (Azsuna). The note says: "cave entrance is at 53.95 to 22.43 . The bears will keep sleeping unless you disturb them." You might want to add that the bears are lvl 110, so that if players do wake them, they know what they are in for ;).
On a side note, LOVE this addon. Not to the point of giving you my firstborn, but close :D

Posted Sep 4, 2016Quick note to add a treasure chest to 52.5,66.4 (Understone Breach) in High Mountain. It shows up after the change to the village, right next to the corpse of Old Nefu. I didn't think to take a picture before I grabbed it. Sorry.

Posted Sep 3, 2016I just want to inform you that you have a spelling mistake.
For Warbringer Mox'na, the description reads: "patrols on the road with to felhunters" and it should be two, not to.

Posted Sep 3, 2016Is there any way to disable the arrow on the screen pointing to the treasures without disabling the map and minimap icons? I just want to turn the arrow off but still want to see the treasures on my maps.

Posted Sep 3, 2016I tried setting a custom note in the Druid hall for the artifact table, but after I enter the name and hit OK, it puts the icon somewhere else in the zone. I didn't have this problem in one of the main zones. FYI.
EDIT: Nevermind, it's doing it in a main Legion zone too. I use Mapster, so I'm not sure if that's part of the issue.
Thanks.

Posted Aug 31, 2016HandyNotes has been crippling my UI. Periodically, it makes my world map bug out, showing a small corner in the top left, black everywhere else, and unrecoverable/unusable until i /reload.
This happens randomly after 5-10 minutes of play. Disable HandyNotes, problem goes away.

Posted Aug 31, 2016As someone else has already mentioned, I too am not able to add new notes. I've alt-R clicked, type /hnnew, nothing, not even any lua errors. I've checked and double checked that I have no other addons running that add any mouse contextual input (ie, alt+r clicking) (Such as TomTom).*
It turns out that the issue is, this feature isn't working if Mapster is also enabled. I disabled Mapster, reloaded ui, then was able to alt+r click. The 'Add Handy Note' window popped up underneath the default world map but I was able to move the map off of it (moveanything) and ultimately create the note. I was NOT however able to create the note use /hnnew with or without coords.
Is there any way to get this to work with Mapster and/or at least a way to change the (alpha?) of the "Add Handy Note" window to display "ontop" of the default blizzard world map?
Thank you for your time and effort!!!
*edit: Two posts copy/pasted into one, fixed*
*edit #2, included the part about Mapster & whatnot*

Posted Aug 30, 2016Is there a Legion version of this? It doesn't seem to show any elites or treasures in Azura at least.

Posted Aug 26, 2016My husband had really bad lag issues with the pre-expansion, so dropped all his addons. He's been putting them back one at a time slowly - adding Handy Notes completely made his game unplayable during combat. No other changes to his settings this week other than Handy Notes (plus DraenorTreasures)...Thoughts?
