I see this behavior if I installed e.g. Cartographer with libs enabled, then my FPS go down considerably and the buttons are all over the minimap, so I just removed the libs from cartographer and it is fine again. Most likely a library conflict.

I'm having an issue when I use MBB along with Cartographer and Quest Helper. Every 3 seconds or so, my computer hitches. It *only* happens when I try to run these three add ons at the same time. Any combination of two of the mods isn't an issue, just the three together. Anyone have any idea what I can do to fix this? These three mods are awesome and I'd hate to give up any of them.

I've done a small update for DAGAssist as lots of people seemed to need that. I've not really looked at this addon for ages.

The stack overflow issue is that still an issue with patch 3.0.3 for anyone?

Are there other buttons not getting caught or should be excluded?

Support for moving the button or square minimaps might be possible but I have way too much time invested in my other addons to address this issue at present. If someone else can code it up I'd be happy to apply the patch.

Is there a way to move the MBB off of the minimap?

Is it possible to add support for "square" minimaps? Its kinda annoying when i want it in the corner and it overlays the minimap

Hi Pericles,
I love MBB, great add on for cleaning up those pesky buttons. Unfortunately, when the new update to DagAssist came out, it broke when I was trying to use it with MBB. Based on some comments on WowInterface, I updated the MBB_Ignore array to include DA_Minimap, and everything worked great. Anyway for you to permanently add this to the release?
Thanks in advance, Brian

There is a conflict between MBB and Deadly Boss Mod. When I enable MBB, I cannot activate the DBM GUI/Menu anymore.

Thanks.

Perhaps you can add an option to let us decide which buttons we want to be consumed by the MBB... MBB is the best minimap button clean up addon, but some dont work... such as DagAssist... just a thought

Hi,

there's problem with another addon:

When i activate the MBB, an addon called Dagassist ( [URL="http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/mbb.aspx"]Curse link[/URL], [URL="http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/fileinfo.php?id=11358"]wowint link[/URL] ) is not working. I get this error when clicking on the Dagassist icon:
Interface\FrameXML\RestrictedExecution.lua:758:
Cannot declare closure factories from insecure code

Without MBB the addon works nice!

I don't know which addon causes the problem. I posted this error on the Dagassist page aswell. He said, your addon causes the problem:

quote: "Due to the protection put in place by Blizzard, any addon that casts spells cannot be arbitrarily shown or hidden. It sounds like MBB is interfering with that protection and there isn't anything I can do about it. You can talk to the MBB author about possibly changing the methods he is using to show/hide buttons."

Perhaps this will help you. I don't know the LUA code ^^

Thx for your great work!

Greets

Just finished testing out this addon and had some problems.

After the icon was dragged off the map, I Ctrl + right clicked and the button disappeared. Typed /mbb to bring up addon options but only the /help text came up - only typing /minimapbuttonbag would trigger the option text. Typing /minimapbuttonbag reset position did not reset the button to the default position.

No other addons where used when I was testing it out - defautl ui other than this addon. Other addons are in the directory but where disabled for my test of this addon.

Update: After further testing I have found more details. I can reset the button disappearance (button disappears 100% of time) using the command /minimapbuttonbag reset all but only after a relog (did not try reloading ui instead of client relog).

Invaluable. it collects all your addon buttons and puts them in one.

I'm getting an error message that says there's a stack overflow in line 855 of MBB.lua. It appears to be killing my game every time I try to load.

Please tell me the slight modification that I should make to cause MBB v-.60 to put the Atlas Loot button in the MBB. Thank you.

Hello Pericles, I am running the latest live WoW client (2.4.3), and am also having problems with v.6. I have isolated it to MMB, and only have these problems when it is running. What happens: 1. System freezes up about every 4 seconds or so. For example if the character is simply running, there is a hiccup and speedfu says I drop down to about 40% speed then picks back up, then slows down, etc. 2. Once I open MMB the icons lay out and the hiccups stop. But then the buttons won't clear back into the bag, instead they stay out on the screen. 3. Finally, the bag doesn't seem to catch all of the other buttons anymore. I think the fishing buddy icon was on the minimap boarder for example. Since the addon effectively freezes up once you open it, there really is no way to find out if that would just need to be put back in the bag, so to speak.
Hope this is helpful. I am also a huge fan of this addon, and am glad to help as needed. I am also on the WOTLK beta, and can check it out there if you need. (Haven't been on the beta since the latest update...)
Cheers!
