HandyNotes
Handy Notes for your maps. This addon is intended to be a small and simple framework for showing notes on your map.
Use /handynotes to access options.
You can add notes to the maps in 3 ways:
- Alt-RightClick on the world map to add a note.
- Use "/hnnew" without the quotes to add a note at your current location.
- Use "/hnnew x,y" without the quotes to add a note at location x,y on your current zone's map.
HandyNotes supports plugins that other authors can write to display their own set of notes on the map. See this link for a list of such addons: https://www.curseforge.com/wow/search?search=handynotes

Posted Sep 2, 2019I hacked up a way to add show all show Innkeepers, Flightmasters, Trainers, Vendors, Mailboxes, Bankers & Auctioneers using HandyNotes. I don't know LUA but I'm decent at Python so I scraped WoWHead and converted to HandyNotesDB.
https://www.reddit.com/r/classicwow/comments/cyyouq/handynotes_show_innkeepers_flightmasters_trainers/
Here is the link on how to add it. Maybe someone can use this to make something more official.

Posted Aug 7, 2019Hello!
I've been searching for any info on this online and can't find it. Is there a way to change the icon style that is placed on the map when you add a note?
Thanks!
Nancy

I had a look and it looks like you can. You set one when you make the note, or if you right-click on the icon on the map you can choose to "edit handy note" and change the icon there. You can choose from all the target marker icons or some of the other map icons you see in tracking - like the stable icon, quest marker, mail icon etc.

Posted Jul 15, 2019Having HandyNotes enabled causes significant delay in being able to click around on the world map to zoom out or change zones. It can take up to 2-3 seconds before clicks register when opening the map and a bit more than a second after clicking to a new zone. With HandyNotes disabled, there's a small delay when first opening the map the first time before clicks register, and no delay when changing zones.

Posted Jul 4, 2019It would be really useful if there was an option to list the rares as well to one side of the map.
I'm in Mechagon and someone is saying a rare "Bone Picker" is up, and I am disparately mousing over all the skulls on my map to find him. An alphabetical list would be useful for a zone, you could just click on "Bone Picker" and it would highlight that skull on the map.
It would also be cool if the list showed what they all dropped, but that;s just a bonus thought!
Thanks for reading.

If they include the coordinates in their message, and you have TomTom, you can get my addon TomPoints: https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/tompoints/ to click the coordinates to create a TomTom waypoint.
