LibTextDump-1.0

Table of Contents

This library provides the ability to create a frame to dump text into, mainly for the purposes of copy/pasting to another medium. The frame does not automatically gain focus, can be banished with the Escape key, and has a button in the lower-right corner to highlight all text.

API reference.

Thanks a lot for the great response. The library works great. I just didn't know that the Addon is loaded before the UI. So, all I needed to do was remove the :AddLine('text') and :Display() from the main chunk of code, into something that is loaded later. Like the ADDON_LOADED event. Then it just works.

Hello Torhal,

This lib is just what I need. However, I can't get it to show anything. Could you help me out?

In my .toc file

## OptionalDeps: LibStub, LibTextDump-1.0 #@no-lib-strip@ Libs\LibTextDump-1.0\LibStub\LibStub\LibStub.lua Libs\LibTextDump-1.0\Lib.xml #@end-no-lib-strip@

In my index.lua file

-- Our text display frame local TextFrame = LibStub("LibTextDump-1.0"):New("Example", 640, 480) TextFrame:AddLine("Some Text")

Thank you :)

I'm very interested in this addon but I can't figure out how to activate it. Is there a command or other addon required?

This is actually a library for AddOns to use in order to create a frame in which to dump text. The programming API (which is linked in the description) can be found here: http://www.wowace.com/addons/libtextdump-1-0/pages/api-reference/
