Dominos is an action bar addon intended to do the following:
- Reuse as much standard blizzard action button code as possible.
- Contain a relatively minimal feature set
- Be easy to use
- Be stable
It includes the following features:
- 10 action bars, pet, class, menu, and bag bars. Each one has customizable settings for padding, spacing, columns, scale, and opacity.
- Customizable paging. You can switch pages on: action bar pages, modifier keys, forms, and targeting.
- Customizable show states. You can tell your bar under which macro options to show.
- Fading bars. You can set your bars to fade out to a certain opacity when not moused over.
- The ability to customize showing empty buttons or not
- Full button facade support
- Keybound support
- Sticky frames
- The ability to move buttons in combat
- A movable casting bar (optional)
- A movable roll frame (optional)
- A movable xp/reputation bar (optional)
- Configurable right click targeting
- Configurable self cast key settings
- Possess bar support
...and will probably not end up with the following:
- A stats bar
- A minimap bar
- True variable length bars
Here's how you use it:
- To see the current list of slash commands, type /dom ? or /dominos ?
- To open up the options menu, either go into interface options, or type /dom
- To move bars around, either go into the options menu and press the "Enter Config Mode" button, or type /dom lock
- To bind keys, enter binding mode via /kb or /keybound, or press the "Enter Binding Mode" button in the options menu.
...and this is why I wrote it:
- I have significantly less time to code now than I did previously. Dominos is intended to be easier to maintain.
- I wanted to see how much I could do while maintaining compatibility with the standard action button code.
- I'm not entirely happy with the direction I took with Bongos3. I added features that I do not see myself using personally, and thus feel that those features will be neglected and bug ridden.
- RedRange - Colors action buttons red when out of range
- OmniCC - Adds cooldown count text
- ButtonFacade - Allows you to change the look of the action, pet, and class buttons
- Inline Aura - Adds buff and debuff highlighting to action buttons

zehrudin Fri, 11 Jul 2008 10:37:49Simple and solid is what I like... got a quick question though:
Is there a feature to represent the bags as 1 button? I use bagnon as an addon for bags and thus only need 1 button bag.

FarseerLolotea Fri, 11 Jul 2008 06:42:23I'm liking it so far, but I've got one question: If you're playing a druid, how do you get your main keybar to switch over to the appropriate abilities when you shapeshift? (I was able to fix a similar issue with stealthing as a rogue; however, it still doesn't seem to work for my druid.)

P.S. Can't wait to see a XP bar! =D

Tuller Sun, 06 Jul 2008 22:56:24I'll try and add an xp bar in 1.3.0

Hungerer Sat, 05 Jul 2008 18:45:57Yeah, that's the same problem I'm having. I don't need some super customizable XP bar, I would just really like to have one that could also track faction reputation.

Duchess44 Sat, 05 Jul 2008 14:12:40I can't seem to get my XP bar to show up. Is there some way to get it to show?

Hungerer Fri, 04 Jul 2008 19:57:28I'm really liking the addon so far, but I have had a few difficulties adjusting to the thing. Really, I only have two problems. First is the lack of an experience bar. I like having a visual representation of how far into whatever level I am, needless to say I can't track my reputation with any faction. I realize that this is meant to be much less complicated than Bongos, and it is, but without an experience bar, it kinda ruins it for me. Everything else is sleek and easy to use, except that.
The only other problem, and I could be wrong, one day when I killed a few orcs, the Honor Kill text appeared on the screen. Problem being, I'm fairly certain that it appeared on the very bottom of the screen under my action bars. Is this the case? If so, is there any way to fix it? Everything else is fine, the quest tracking, timers, etc., but I would appreciate it if you could return this to the middle of the screen, if I wasn't mistaken.
