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
Is it me or are the coords not that accurate ? A lot of actual places where the obj are , are way off.
Mhh the Addon wont work for me how it should be..
There are no Icons for any Rare on the map...There are only a few icons overall on my map....but i have all HandyNotes Addons....something seems to be broken for me
Hi, I was wondering if there is a way to export your notes for backup purposes?
I had to reinstall last night and lost all my notes :(
Hi there, thank you for the updates to Handynotes. There is a problem. I am able to add notes by using the / command to the map, however, the icon nor the note will show on the map. Is there something I need to activate that I have overlooked?
/handynotes doesn't seem to work for me even though it's enabled and mostly working. typing /handynotes yields no results at all, any advice?
I've had trouble over the past couple days with HandyNotes and dependent addons mysteriously uninstalling. I'm using the Curse Client, but this has only ever happened with HandyNotes.
Yesterday, base HandyNotes and both the dependent addons were gone. I reinstalled and fortunately the settings had been saved. Today, just the HandyNotes_LegionRares&Treasures dependent was missing.
Has anyone else experienced anything like this?
Is there a way to remove a marker? I looked through the info and settings and there does not seem to be...
For some reason I am no longer getting the icons for the rare npcs showing up on my map even though I have it enabled in the settings.
I 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
Found a new Suramar treasure at 71.49, 49.81 at the top of the tower in Jandvik.
Quick 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.
Did you found that treasure chest?
It shows the icon there from tracking but i dont see any chest.
I 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.
Is 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.
HN is not remembering my settings EG; icon visibility and size.
I 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.
Anyone know where the treasure is between Val'sharah and suramar it says Need a Quest line to open the door that leads to it but the icon is in Val'sharah map but seems like it is in Suramar? i'm not sure :\
HandyNotes 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.
As 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!!!
