HandyNotes

Table of Contents

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

I should say, now all of a sudden after the recent update, it is showing them, but only while moving and they blink really rapidly like the event you are registering to post the worldmap pin is based on movement or something which i'm not sure how :P

I have a toast that is stuck in the bottom left of my screen, when I disable add ons, one by one, it goes away when I disable HandyNotes. Here's what I'm talking about:

https://gyazo.com/bdf0aff26b2cf49a471f9b744c790e4d

It only shows when I'm an BFA area. It's quite frustrating. In the screenshot, I've just hearthed to the inn from my garrison. I haven't moused over anything in the game or on my map.

I just found out if you get this error and are using Twitch, right click on the addon and tell it to delete saved variables.. apparently so much changed since Legion it needed it. All fixed.

Mysterious Corrupted Obelisk - Tanaan Jungle

Notes indicate this is available after Tanaan Campaign #5, but access isn't obtained until entering Vault of the Earth, which is campaign #6, is it not?

Your strata is bad. The UI to place new poi goes behind the map. Can you please add a setting to change strata?

You can see where your UI peeks through at the very bottom bearly.

Thanks!

I am having a problem with HandyNotes not showing as part of my maps Interface, nor do treasures or rares show up on that map. ( /handynotes config has no effect either)This is effecting just my main character. It used to work before the BFA release, for sure. Oddly, it seems to work just fine, normally for all my other alts, on both of my accounts. I redowned loaded HandyNotes several times, but this did not fix the issue. HandyNotes does not appear a character specific saved variable. can you help?

I'm having this exact same issue with the new update. It's like HandyNotes isn't installed at all, but it is. I've double checked my addons multiple times, even unticked it, reload the ui, ticked it & reloaded again. It's not listed in the Interface menus section for Add-ons, it's not anywhere, really.
