I just have noticed some weird thing: On top of each quest items is a little gray questionmark. Why is this there?

^_^ Thanks for the work on the locale.
Though about to add more phrases tonight :P

Could you get me a picture of the 'little grey question marks'.
And are they in the same place as the grey dots on the items in the screen-shots? (Which will be hidden now on, my bad on that >.>)

Probably easier to talk there since curse is going funny from to many quotes ^_^

Does the latest alpha hide those marks?

You mean this yellow quest messages?

This is an example from the new cooking daily in Stormwind (collecting apples):

Saftiger Apfel: 6/12

- Does SQL also send out LibSink messages when a quest is completed?
I know this might sound stupid but please take a look at the announce module in TomQuest2. This is handled very fine there but no worries: i like your complete package more. :-)

- Yes, thats what i mean regarding the font shadows. It would be nice to have an option to turn off the shadow at all OR being able to change the shadow x and y offsets and color ;-)

Keep up the great work!

So far added an option to enable/disable shadows on each text.
Will think about offsets/colours ^_^

SQL should catch messages which follow that cooking daily message format.. not sure why it wouldn't :(

Hi Sorha,

thank you so much for the coloring options and the intend settings!
I still have some things left:

- LibSink output does not work for me at all. :-( The Blizzard quest notifications are also still shown although toggled hidden by SQL. I am using MikScrollingBattleText (MSBT). I got no error, it simply does not work.

- Button Facade support for quest items would be delicious. :-)

- I believe that when using outlines for text that text shadows are also active at the same time. Please correct me if i am wrong. ( i don't know if you have missed this in my last post)

You may have noticed that i have started to translate this great addon to german. I hope you like it :-)
Keep up the great work!

If you have them on to suppress I am not to sure whats happening there.
Either my string matches don't work for your clients language or another addons doing something magical.
Have any that change those messages in any way, and can you if possible enter the text in here that pops up with the message, just one or two.

- Button Facade support for quest items would be delicious. :-)
I did implement this at one point but turned away from it again as it ruined the cooldown spirals on the buttons, can always try looking into it again though ^_^

- I believe that when using outlines for text that text shadows are also active at the same time. Please correct me if i am wrong. ( i don't know if you have missed this in my last post)
How I missed seeing that entire sentence before I don't know >.<
There is now an option to disable shadowing for any of the fonts in r47 ^_^
Hope it doesn't explode

Noticed the translations, thanks for the help ^_^

Loving this addon so far! One simple request -- would it be possible to add the daily quest count to the title text? Something like this would be great:

22/25 (5/25)

Thanks for considering!

Narzual, am hoping to get something of the sort done.
Just takes a while because of the way the trackers are done :(

Akgis have a feeling that's caused by the auto collapsing/expanding.
I never use those so missed an issue there :(
Will see what I can do towards fixing it ^_^

Fairly annoying bug

WIth the options "Allow Hidden quests" and "Hide zone headers with only hidden quests" the minion appon login or zone shows Zone headers even with if only have hidden quests.

IDEA! Could you put an option in to combine the Achievement Tracker with the Quest Traker? Maybe have a little button to switch from quest to achievements so we don't need a second tracker. What do you think?

My bad on that one there to cakelord...
Seems I managed to totally forget that library >.<
I don't run into the error because another addon somewhere must be loading it for me though, thus why it made it this far ^_^

Hopefully going to finally have these errors fixed next in r40.. but time will tell :(

- An option to intend the quest objectives by x pixel.
Hopefully done as of r42

- An option to define custom colors for the 'goto' and 'done' texts (independently)

Hi Sorha,

excellent work so far. Thank for implementing my requests!

There are just some small things left before this is THE perfect tracker for me:

- Please allow a wider quest tracker. 300 px is a bit too small.
- An option to intend the quest objectives by x pixel.
- An option to customize the 'goto' and 'done' texts (Great for non-english clients)
- An option to define custom colors for the 'goto' and 'done' texts (independently)

Furthermore i believe that when using outlines for text that text shadows are also active at the same time. Please correct me if i am wrong.

Keep up the great work!

Done in r40 onward, set to 600.. probably overkill there, but I guess it doesn't technically do anything bad >.>

- An option to intend the quest objectives by x pixel.
Will look into this, should be easier now that I changed the way indenting works to allow item buttons to be hidden.

- An option to customize the 'goto' and 'done' texts (Great for non-english clients)
The best way to do this would be to make the translations at SQL's localization area if they are not done.
I generally add locale updates in every beta and most revisions.

- An option to define custom colors for the 'goto' and 'done' texts (independently)
I can look into this, shouldn't be hard per-say, its just a lot more colours to add :P

Just curious. I downloaded this to replace my questguru, but it seems like this quest log tracker doesn't work with blizzard's remote quests (ones where you finish the quest and then can turn them in without having to go back to the person who gave you the quest). This happened in the Azshara quest where you kill 20 talrendis raiders in the shredder.
