Cartographer

202 - Cartographer Notes GUI creation no longer works after today's WoW minipatch

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Load - as the only mod besides ACP - Cartographer (revision below) with all its libraries embedded (and individually updated). Do not have GuildPositions, InstanceNotes, InstanceMaps or Waypoints loading, though. Also have a large database of self-made & guild-member-received Notes. 2. Log on. Open the world map; currently in the zone Elwynn Forest. All previous Notes for that zone appear fine. As do the normal mouseclick-functions for zooming the map, adjusting the scale and so on. 3. Then try CTRL-clicking to create a new note in the zone. The small frame with "Create a new note" and "Cancel" appears.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Expected: when clicking "Create a new note", a further GUI frame appears where you can enter the Note name and various details (as it has in the past). Instead: no further frame appears and nothing happens, no matter how often you click "Create a new note".

What version of the product are you using?

r2329

Do you have an error log of what happened?

No errors.

Please provide any additional information below.

Its been quite a while since I last used Cartographer; have it disabled on my two 80 raiding characters due to its long standing, unfixed bug preventing Blizzard right-click menus from working in instances. But started a new alt recently. So am using it again as there is nothing I can do with all the old notes I have recorded with Cartographer, other than continue to use it.

Thus I don't know whether today's WoW "mini-tool patch" downloaded to USEnglish sever/clients has affected the GUI note creation or not. But it may have. Two things: using the "/note (coord) (coord) (title)" command line works fine to create notes. But not via the GUI. And right-clicking existing notes to modify them brings up the GUI and works fine. Just not creating new ones.
