FuBar2Broker
Description
Transparently creates LDB ("LibDataBroker") feeds from all of your FuBar plugins so that they can be shown on LDB displays of your choice instead of on FuBar.
See this forum thread for general info on LDB.
Usage
FuBar2Broker is meant to be completely transparent. If FuBar2Broker is running, you should see LDB feeds for all of your loaded FuBar plugins listed in your LDB display(s).
NOTE: Many FuBar plugins require an actual addon named "FuBar" to load as a dependency, and will refuse to load if it is not present. Use this miniature FuBar stub to make them work with FuBar2Broker!
Also note that even with the fake FuBar stub installed, some plugins still won't load because they are flagged as Load-on-Demand. F2B does not currently handle loading LoD plugins (because such functionality is currently over my head) so you will have to edit their .TOC file to remove the load on demand requirement.
Known Issues
Some FuBar plugins (such as NRT) expect you to double-click them to perform certain actions, but double-clicking does not seem to be handled in a compatible way by LDB. As a workaround, FuBar2Broker currently allows you to simulate double-clicks by clicking the middle mouse button instead.
Also, please note that FuBarPlugin-3.0 based plugins such as FuBar_PerformanceFu and FuBar_DurabilityFu will not be converted to LDB plugins by FuBar2Broker because F2B works by acting as a FuBarPlugin-2.0 dummy library. Most FuBarPlugin-3.0 plugins that I know of have decent LDB-based alternatives though.
Bug Reports
If you have any issues, please report them in the FuBar2Broker forum thread and/or create a ticket in FuBar2Broker's WowAce ticket tracker.

Posted Nov 7, 2008Don't know if this belongs here. If i for example mouseover SkillsPlusFu id get the tooltip from this addon.When i press right mousebutton for the option, the optionframe is behind the normal tooltip. I use Fortress as displayaddon.
regards, Sha
Edit: I've modified your behavior seen by the tooltip. I have a strange attitude for example with auldlangsynfu. The tooltip popt arbitrarily, although I do not'm on the block.

Posted Oct 30, 2008what would it take to enable the user to choose/configure which FuBar plugins they wanted FuBar2Broker to convert to LDB plugins, selectively?
looks like Broker2FuBar allows the user to choose which LDB plugins to convert into FuBar plugins... i would like to be able to do that in the opposite direction with FuBar2Broker.

Posted Apr 20, 2009Most LDB displays let you choose which plugins to show on them, so you can show/hide them at the display level if nothing else.
