About BottomsAnywhere

Makes your chat edit box movable and saves the location!

Many thanks to Moron for their excellent code in StickyChatWindow, which all of the location saving is from!

Known Caveats!
I cannot for the life of me get rid of the extra space at the bottom of the chat window like I could in BottomsUp. I am so at a loss as to how to fix this! So, please, if you have code or even an idea that might work to fix the chat window to act as it does in BottomsUp, PLEASE drop me a line, comment, ticket, etc...

Installation Guide

Exit "Warhammer Online" completely
Download the mod you want to install
- Make a folder on your desktop called "My Mods"
- Save the .zip/.rar files to this folder.
- If, when you try to download the file, it automatically "opens" it... you need to RIGHT click on the link and "save as..." or "Save Target As".
Extract the file - commonly known as 'unzipping'
Do this ONE FILE AT A TIME!
- Windows
  - Windows XP has a built in ZIP extractor. Double click on the file to open it, inside should be the file or folders needed. Copy these outside to the "My Mods" folder.
  - WinRAR: Right click the file, select "Extract Here"
  - WinZip: You MUST make sure the option to "Use Folder Names" is CHECKED or it will just extract the files and not make the proper folders how the Authors designed
Verify your WAR Installation Path
That is where you are running WAR from and THAT is where you need to install your mods.
Move to the Addon folder
- Open your Warhammer Online folder. (default is C:\Program Files\Warhammer Online\)
- Go into the "Interface" folder.
- Go into the "AddOns" folder.
- In a new window, open the "My Mods" folder.
- The "My Mods" folder should have the "Addonname" folder in it.
- Move the "Addonname" folder into the "AddOns" folder
Start Warhammer Online

Translations

When you download a mod, please be sure that the mod is compatible with your translation of WAR. Some mods only work on the US versions, while some only work on some of the various European versions. These variations are called "Localizations".

I did a slight merger of this and BottomsUp so that it would reset the chat window to get rid of the extra space. Only issue is that it is now remembering the X of the edit box's location, but not the Y. Constantly resets it to the bottom.

To reset the chat window, I just borrowed the WindowClearAnchors from BottomsUp as well as the WindowAddAnchor for the foreground and background. That resets the chat box so that there is no whitespace at the bottom.

Here's the edited code:

function BottomsAnywhere.Initialize()

-- Make Text Edit Box Moveable
WindowClearAnchors("EA_TextEntryGroupEntryBox")
WindowClearAnchors("EA_ChatWindowGroup1Foreground")
WindowAddAnchor( "EA_ChatWindowGroup1Foreground", "bottomright", "EA_ChatWindowGroup1CycleRightButton", "topright", 0, 0 )
WindowAddAnchor( "EA_ChatWindowGroup1Foreground", "bottomleft", "EA_ChatWindowGroup1", "bottomleft", 0, 0 )

-- Fixing Background anchoring
WindowClearAnchors("EA_ChatWindowGroup1Background")
WindowAddAnchor( "EA_ChatWindowGroup1Background", "bottomleft", "EA_ChatWindowGroup1Foreground", "bottomleft", 0, 0 )
WindowAddAnchor( "EA_ChatWindowGroup1Background", "bottomright", "EA_ChatWindowGroup1Foreground", "bottomright", 0, 0 )
LayoutEditor.RegisterWindow( "EA_TextEntryGroupEntryBox", L"Chat Input Box", L"The window that opens when you hit 'enter'.", false, false, true, nil )

Don't have time to test it, but instead of trying to move just the edit box, try moving the entire text entry group.

And I stole most of my code from Squared & Aiiane :)
