nUI v5.03.00 Release

Change log


Version 5.03.00


* Added a new slash command '/nui mountscale {n}' which allows for setting a scale on the special mount / vehicle seat indicator. This option sets the scale for the seat indicator displayed at the top center of the display when you are on a special mount. The default is '/nui mountscale 1' where 0.5

Known caveats


Known compatibility issues with third party mods...


   * Guild Event Manager is moving its minimap button back to the minimap out of the button
     bag whenever the player clicks on it. A minute or so later, nUI's button bag logic
     will see the button moved and return it to the button bag. 
     
   * Carbonite is having issues updating the directional arrow when the minimap and/or
     battlefield minimap is hidden in the info panel
     
   * Poison Pouch mod minimap button is missed by button bag
   
   * Alpha Map minimap button is not scaling correctly in button bag
   
   * nUI and Capping are not playing well... Capping's modification of the battlefield
     minimap is interfering with nUI's info panel management of the map
     
   * Titan Panel is causing an error when the bottom bar is enabled
   
   * Titan panel mouseover tooltips are not compatible with nUI's fixed position 
     tooltip option
     
   * http://www.onraid.com/ not playing well with button bag

Known Bliz / nUI compatibility issues...


   * Right clicking a unit frame and selecting "set focus" taints in combat == this is
     a known bug since WoW 3.0.2 and is beyond nUI's control. Hopefully Bliz will address
     it in the next patch (or two or three or twenty). You can target the desired focus 
     and then type '/focus' to aquire a focus frame until Bliz resolves this issue.
     
   * Switching between windowed and non-windowed mode breaks nUI's textures and HUD -- this
     is caused by a known Bliz bug in their video driver code and applies only to certain
     graphics cards and video drivers. It is nearly random in terms of which mods it will
     impact... anything from very complex to completely trivial mods are broken by this
     bug but it is always mods that use custom textures. There is no fix. The only 
     workaround is to (a) avoid switching between windowed and non-windowed modes as much
     as possible and use '/nui rl' to reload the user interface when it gets broken. It is
     worth noting this bug affects Macs most often, but also impacts some PCs (such as 
     mine). This bug has been a round a very long time and no telling if or when it will
     ever be fixed.
   * If your mouse buttons 4 and 5 do not work for click-casting on unit frames, make
     sure your mouse driver is sending mouse button clicks and not key presses. You can
     do this by going to the key binding interface and trying to bind autorun to mouse
     button 4. If the key binding does not say "Button 4" or "Mouse Button 4" then the
     issue is your mouse driver or driver settings. Bliz does not support key-presses
     as mouse clicks directly and mods like Clique cannot detect key presses in that way.
     

To-Do List / Planned features


   * The 15, 20, 25 and 40 man raid panels are not in the pre-release... both because I am 
     not quite satisfied with them and, again, I'm trying to not have to fix everything at 
     once... make sure the core stuff is all working, then add the bells and whistles if 
     you understand.
