Cartographer
CARTOGRAPHER HAS NOT BEEN UPDATED FOR 3.3!!!
DO NOT CREATE BUG REPORTS SAYING IT IS BROKEN!
There are no plans to do any major bug fixes for Cartographer (v2 or v3). If there is an update it will only be a minor fix. (It has already been this way since at least 2008.) Cartographer(v2) uses an outdated framework that will not be updated in the case of major breakages so Cartographer(v2) would require a complete rewrite. Neither of the two main developers (Ckknight and Arrowmaster) have the time nor desire to do this currently. Occasionally a new version might be released to include fixes made by other developers or new versions of embedded libraries.
Cartographer is a modular, lightweight, and efficient framework for manipulation of the world map. It is based on Rock and other libraries of the WoWAce community.
- Battlegrounds : allows viewing of battlegrounds outside of the zone.
- Coordinates : adds coordinates to the bottom of the world map of the player and the cursor.
- Foglight : Shows unexplored areas on the map. replacement for MozzFullWorldMap or Unexplorer. Much more efficient, though.
- Group Colors : turns all your party's and your raid's POIs into circles colored based on class, and shows a number on them based on their raid group.
- Instance Maps : shows maps of instances.
- Instance Notes : adds boss notes and such to instance maps.
- Look 'n' Feel : allows you to change the transparency, position, and scale of the world map.
- Notes : lets you put notes on the map, similar to MapNotes.
- Zone Info : on hovering over a zone, it will show the levels of the zone, the instances in the zone, their levels, and the group size the instance is made for (e.g. 5-man, 40-man).
Go over there and vote for it so it get's noticed and taken care of. Later.
When I'm in an instance, I can't click on the icons for the drop down map. Not on my icon or any of the party members. Drop down menu works fine outside of instance. I also have Questhelper and checked the chat there but they say it's Cartographer.

Shows as an Add On in the WoW start up page. After logging on it's not listed as an Add on when I look in my interface. I've reinstalled via Curse client several times.
Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but.....
I want an Addin that advises/tracks herbs and minerala. Any additional features are a plus. Should I look at Gatherere, GatherMate or something else? tanx for all the help you can give.
Ever since the inception of Cartographer, I have been using it for the amazing Transparency feature which removes Blizzard's frame and superfluous map art from each zone. This feature has been positively amazing and to it I owe endless amounts of gold for making farming easy.
However, the one annoyance regarding it is it's affect on Wintergrasp. For the longest time I thought Cartographer or the Blizzard UI was just not loading the WG map. Finally one day I set the Transparency back to 100% and lo and behold... there is the WG map!
I gather that it is completely transparent because it shows itself on the surrounding zone's maps (BT, SB, IC, CSF & DB) and that forces transparency upon it. However, while it doesn't entirely affect gameplay in Wintergrasp, it sure would be nice to be able to see roads/lakes etc. when I'm running around farming. Is there any hotfix for this, or could you maybe look into the issue? I would be happy to provide screenshots or whatever would help.
*Note: the icons on the map for the PvP objectives (aka Towers, GYs, Workshops & the Fortress) all show, as well as player & vehicle icons. It is simply the background map itself that is transparent.
Thanks!
