DetachedMiniButtons

Main

This mod attempts to 'detach' all your minimap buttons, allowing you to place them anywhere on your screen. Positions are saved per server/character and restored next login.

This is the first version of this mod, I am sure not all kinks are worked out. I have tested it only with the mods I have, so please let me know which mods create buttons that I cannot detach so I can load them and see what-is-what.

Not all minimap buttons are detected at start up (such as FuBar plugin mods, which has its own moving anyway). A slash command is provided so you can rescan for buttons: /dmbs. This will also reposition any buttons it failed to find at startup.

Special thanks to AnduinLothar without whose code and ideas in Mobile Minimap Buttons I would not have thought of this.

Very special thank to acruz2772 on wowinterface for guiding me to changes for TBC! His excellent explanation made things much easier!

Slash Commands:
/dmbs  : look for new buttons.
/dmbs nodock : buttons will NOT try to dock to Minimap when close to it.
/dmbs dock  : buttons will try to dock to Minimap when close to it. This is default.
/dmbs reset  : reset all buttons back to initial positions.
/dmbs lock, /dmbs unlock. Lock stops movement of buttons, unlock allows it. This does NOT prevent other mods from moving the buttons.
Slash command /dmbs now shows help, use /dmbs scan to rescan buttons.
/dmbs help to show help.
/dmbs scan which scans for new buttons.
/dmbs cfg which shows lock/dock settings.
/dmbs config: show UI.
