Thanks
you should just click export then save export string somewhere
paste and click import when you want to restore old layout
the `>` button is for ppl want to customize exported string or ignore some setting during import
about the UI
i have to admit that `IGNORE during` is really a bad UI
it caused too many confusions and even caused empty export string (see issue https://github.com/tg123/myslot/issues/60)
i am trying to refine the ui to make less confusion, any suggestions are welcomed
In reply to oishii1992: Well, I guess part of my confusion are the saved "profiles". I guess that's what you call in the drop down bars. As you change from one to the other, the text in the window changes so I though when you did an export, that's what the save was for. To save it. Which is why I don't understand the copy out to somewhere else in the description or in your comment.
That's where I don't understand exactly how all of this is supposed to work.
Thanks.
hello, is there a reason why the talent tree no longer appears in the export?
In reply to Claptrapp: fixing, due to some system change in 11.0
Hi, I'm not sure if this is a feature request or an issue, but the menu that is titled "Ignore during Export" does not ignore bars, it wipes them. Those are two completely different actions and thus, does not do what I was hoping for. I would like the option to just ignore certain bars in an export, if that is possible. Thanks.
In reply to pizza1776:
are you using latest version, you can choose which to ignore
In reply to oishii1992: Yes, I am using the latest version. I am able to ignore bars when importing, so it does work. Just if I try to make an export with bars ignored, importing that export will remove all buttons from the bars which were ignored on export. Does that make sense?
Edited to add that in my test import that worked, I asked to ignore Bar1 and it did. However, I just did an import wherein I asked it to ignore Bars 4&5 and it did not ignore those bars. So it is not working for me.
In reply to oishii1992: Adding that in my test import that worked, I asked to ignore Bar1 and it did. However, I just did an import wherein I asked it to ignore Bars 4&5 and it did not ignore those bars. So it is not working for me.
In reply to pizza1776:
i believe you mistake bar 4 & 5
myslot follows wow standard are you sure you are ignoring 4&5 not other bars?
In reply to oishii1992: Oh, I see. This must be something that Bartender is doing to throw off the bar references, then. I tested on my client, where I use ElvUI and your addon works as expected. It's only on my wife's client with Bartender that things act weird. Thanks for the replies to help clear it up.
Hello, would it be possible to use your addon to copy the settings (bars, buttons, hotkeys aso) from one spec to another? in sod with dual spec all the buttons got another layout and its really annoying for classes like shaman tank/enh, rogue tank/dps, mage heal/dps to recreate the entire layout for just change a few buttons.
would be really cool if one could copy the buttons and layout from one spec to an other.
In reply to 1nH3ll:
yes no limit, even different class
Hello can we have an option to hide the minimap button please
In reply to furuchiru: please open option in game menu and find myslot to turn it off
Some errors observed on Beta 11.x:
When clicking arrow next to export or import buttons:
Message: Interface/AddOns/Myslot/gui.lua:457: attempt to call global 'EasyMenu' (a nil value)
When importing profile from 10.2.7:
Message: Interface/AddOns/Myslot/Myslot.lua:545: attempt to call global 'GetSpellBookItemInfo' (a nil value)
In reply to TOM_RUS: please test v5.17.3-beta
i do not have a tww acc to verify, sorry about that
In reply to oishii1992: errors seems gone, import goes through on beta. Also blizzard updated and launched 11.x PTR and you can use that instead of beta, should be available to everyone for testing.
The command /myslot load ProfileName no longer works. It just outputs "<Myslot>Profile to load found : Rogue", but there is no import. Can you please check?
In reply to warkonaut:
fixed in 5.17.2
Hi, when checking the ignore macro checkbox, is it supposed to also ignore the macros you placed on your action bars? I save my binds/macros/bars separately since I prefer to update my global binds/macro profiles separate of each other, so I ran into this issue where I have to place my macros back onto the bar after importing the action bar layout, even if the macros have the exact same name.
Also, the link to the github on this curseforge page has a type at the end with >
