Would it be possible to add a toggle for each note whether to show on the minimap or not?

Hey :).. how can you uhm configure handynotes and tomtom. I wanna be able to Alt+Right click to create waypoints on the map but sadly handynotes has an option already to make notes with that shortcut.. changing the shortcut hotkeys on tomtom settings wont help also.. idk what to do

Suggestion for upcoming Housing update. I love HandyNotes and crack it out most seasonal events or when i have a specific achieve to go and do.

HandyNotes: Decor, that marks where all the decor vendors are would be AMAZING. Even just that function would be great, any extra details would be cherries on top.

I hope you keep making a great addon!

HandyNotes: The War Within is throwing errors (every time the cursor is placed upon anything in world map) since past 1 week. Kindly fix the same.

I hope this helps debug

When a Rarmob are spwan/up, the tooltip don't work on Map. Only when the mop are dead. Why?

PLEASE UPDATE FOR VERSION 11.2.0 THANKS

no update, but the addons that use this as their base get updated. why do they bother? are they not allowed to replace this or something.

Please update for version 11.2.0 Most of the Handy Notes add-ons have updated, but they still don't work without this one. This one always seems to update last.

Please Update for version 11.2.0

giving up with this as useful as it originally seems because of the conflict with TomTom meaning I can't create Waypoint without this add-on just getting in the way when using alt+rmb, overall wasn't worth the time wasted in hassle caused for the amount of time it could have saved.

After trial and error, this addon is causing auto dialogs to complete. Originally it was DBM but they have been successfully ruled out. Please check the LUA information that is causing dialogs to auto-select. It is extremely annoying.

is this addon dead?

A few weeks ago I started noticing that I was unable to reply to whispters... instead, it opened the Options / AddOns menu for HandyNotes. This is kinda gamebreaking, as needing to disable HandyNotes reloads the UI, which deletes whispers... The issue happens when replying, starting with the text,

/cw (username) message.

Opens the menu every time. I discovered the situation after disabling addons one by one and isolating HandyNotess

Just a general advice to AddOn makers who come to the comments. I've noticed issues in Classic Mists with pin placements in zones, when rippled up to the Azeroth map, are not placed correctly. Not essentially a HandyNotes problem but a problem with Here Be Dragons - a module that's included when you d/l HN

Please Give us the Option to let us change they Keybind for the "Set Custom Mark". It interfers with TomTom and InGame Pin. Thank you.

Addon is causing micro-stutter.

Disabeling fixes it, enabeling and its back.

In reply to Azerox050: yep, exactly the same issue

In reply to kamigatu:

 I have had that issue too but then some of my AddOns have thousands of pins!

I get around it in this order of effectiveness: (1) limiting the number of pins which will populate a CONTINENT. In the continent routine, which groups all the zone pins together, just show one or two indicative pins. Click on the zone and get all of the pins. (2) Limit the number of API calls inside the refresh routine. In fact some of my AddOns populate a lookup table so an API call need only be done once per pin per reload. (3) Use a built in delay of several seconds when updating the Minimap. (4) Couple of other minor efficiencies.

It's not so much a problem of HN, it's me just asking too much of it given that we should only be taking up a very thin slice of milliseconds when our AddOn gets its turn.
