You must bind your keys via the built in binding system (/dom, Enter Binding Mode...). If you do not, your bindings will not work when switching stances, forms, to stealth, etc

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
  • Buff and debuff highlighting (optional)
  • 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.

You can use the following to add extra functionality:

  • 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

    Thanks, I'll go look for one of those, then wait for a WotLK Beta key to see what you mean. :)

    At least on wowi, there are a bunch of little "stats" addons like Bongos_Stats. In wrath, the menu bar also gains a tooltip for latency/fps/memory usage.

    Just switched from Bongos3 to this, and it's working out great, but I do miss the Bongos Stats bar (fps, addon memory, latency). Will that be implemented at some point, or do I need to look elsewhere?

    How do I get to Bars 9 & 10 - they are covered by the Interface Options dialog box which doesn't seem to be movable.

    Love Dominos, it's working well for me after the usual self-training period. THANK YOU for the rep and XP bars. Only thing I'm wondering about is this: if I click Bind Keys while in Config Mode, I get the little instruction window, bind the key I want, and click the 'Okay' button ... which closes Dominos and leaves me stuck in Config Mode. I have to "/dom" again to Exit Config Mode. Would be nice if closing the Bind Keys window would take the user back to the Config Mode window if Config Mode was active, so one could Exit Config Mode without re-opening the mod.
    Thanks for all that you do. I was way bummed when Bongos was no longer supported, but Dominos is giving me everything I need.

    Sorry for my english. I have a big problem with Dominos. When i press button "Stealth"(Rogue) - the main panel of abilities varies on the stealth panel. If I press any figure on a stealth panel - 1,2,3,4 etc.: ability which is on the main panel is started and i can't start ability which is on a stealth panel. I can start them only click of a mouse, and it is very inconvenient. Help me, please! I want, that abilities on a stealth panel were started by figures(1,2,3,4 etc.).

    I love both your bar mods, but I have 1 simple problem. I've binded a few of my warrior skills with the shift key, and occasionally while I'm pvp'ing I tap shift and the mousewheel. This pages through my active bars and is very annoying sometimes. Is there any way I can change this or just remove it completely? I don't ever page through besides stances, and your mod does it automatically for me. Thanks in advance
