AutoHideBarsUI Author:jtbalogh | AutoHideBarsUI can temporarily hide the default blizzard actionbars that are enabled in the interface menu. When the mouse is moved over to the edge of the screen where the action bars are, then the bars slide into view. The goal was to provide more real estate on the screen to see the world map, and not have to build new action bars to provide this feature. Source code can help other addons with custom actionbars and frames that want to be hidden.
Instructions: - Move mouse to edge of screen where action bars are to show action bars. - Move mouse away from icons in the bars slowly to hide. - Move mouse away from icons in the bars quickly to remain showing. - Does not hide if targeting something.
Command: /ahbui
Options: /ahbui off (to disable temporarily) /ahbui on (to enable) (default setting) /ahbui default (to enable and reset to defaults) /ahbui showBottom (to temporarily hide/show bottom bar) /ahbui showRight (to temporarily hide/show right bar) /ahbui showSSS (to temporarily hide/show shape/stance/stealth) /ahbui showPet (to temporarily hide/show pet bar) /ahbui showXP (to temporarily hide/show xp bar)
Install: Move the files to the game folder, .\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\AutoHideBarsUI\*.*
------------------------------------------------- Known bugs: ------------------------------------------------- - /ahbui off still keeps a hidden frame enabled where actionbars were. - /ahbui showBottom still keeps a hidden frame enabled where actionbars were. - /ahbui showRight still keeps a hidden frame enabled where actionbars were. - If you want to disable, it isprobably better to just remove the addon folder.
------------------------------------------------- Known limitations: ------------------------------------------------- - Affects builtin action bars, shape, stance, stealth, pet, xp. - If chat, bags, and other windows move as bars hide, then may need to unlock and lock those windows manually to refresh. - Not tested with all character classes and races. For warrior and hunter so far. - Not implemented to use shortcut/keybind to trigger action bar to temporarily show quickly. - Not implemented with an options window, so use slash command. - Not implemented to save/remember options. Resets to defaults at next login. - Default blizzard menu bar is not hidden because buttons and shortcuts are disabled when hidden. - Settings are not saved after logoff.
------------------------------------------------- Adding other bars and frames to code: ------------------------------------------------- - Other bars and frames from addons are ignored unless added in this code manually. Other bars like stance, stealth, pet, etc are hidden since the icons can be moved to the actionbars anyway and take advantage of keybinds even when hidden. - Other frames from addons can be added manually. Sync other frames only by manually adding to code, where it says, '*other addon frames'. - Currently two frames exist to cover actionbars. Add more by manually adding to code to the XML and LUA file, where it says, '*other addon frames'. - To determine the names of other bars and frames, see the addon, GetFrameName.
