668 - /atlasloot results in not being able to select bosses after some period in game

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open AtlasLoot using the /atlasloot command (I hide the minimap button)
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead? Instead of having a list of bosses on the right side, there is a blank window.

What version of the product are you using? v6.04.03

Do you have an error log of what happened? There does not appear to be any specific error that is spit out.

Please provide any additional information below.

Like the dreaded Talented glyph taint issue (trying to remove a glyph will tell you a random addon blocked it from occurring and tells you to disable it), upon initial login to WoW, everything seems to work correctly. However, after some period of time, the problem pops up. I'll open /atlasloot on login and it looks just fine. But an hour later when i'm raiding to see what a boss drops, I try /atlasloot again and lo and behold, the only way for me to select the boss I want now is to use the arrow buttons in the big loot frame.

This problem should be fixed now starting in r3717, via the LibStrataFix embed.

This is the same issue as ticket 726, and is exactly the Blizzard bug that StrataFix is designed to solve. This is NOT an AtlasLoot bug, it's a bug in Blizzard's base Frame code (which can affect anyone regardless of addons), but it DOES very frequently affect AtlasLoot's Boss list window, especially after raiding for awhile. (By the way, it has nothing to do with whether you open AtlasLoot using the slash command or minimap/ldb).

As the author of StrataFix, I'm thinking of packaging a library version of the fix - if I did that would AtlasLoot be interested in embedding the library so that all users can benefit without needing to separately download StrataFix?

Oops, I guess I haven't checked in on this in a while after my trip abroad. I'll apply StrataFix and see what happens since even with the new v6.05.02 i'm still running into this issue.

I too have this problem. even rebooting the client and logging back into the same toon doesn't work to correct the issue, however, switching to another toon and back does seem to force the boss data tables to reload. Atlas v1.21.1, Atlasloot v6.05.0 just had this happen Nov. 30th. well, it's been happening for a while now, but I can't really pinpoint when it started.

Did you try http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/stratafix.aspx?

Otherwise I have no idea what could be causing this.

Finally got around to run around on an alt with just Atlasloot (and Atlas) enabled and it happened only once after I had entered a battleground (which seems to be a trigger for a lot of problems with random addons, lolpvp). I still don't get any LUA errors associated with it so it really sucks that I can't offer any additional useful information to help ):

Very weird issue. Sounds like another addon is interfering. Does this happen with only AtlasLoot enabled as well?
