This addon is a fully customizable ActionBar.
This Addon is meant to be used to replace your normal Actionbars.
Basically you create Buttons and Group them together to get your own customized actionbar.
Phantom is a dependency of this addon! Download it [here]
The Second Addon LibCooldown which is included in the .zip file needs to be installed too.
FUNDAMENTAL CHANGES TO THE ADDON:
- I ADVISE YOU TO MAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR SETTINGS (stored in /user/interface/AllCharacters/TastyButtons)
- if yo need to restore them copy them to /user/interface/AllCharacters/TastySettings !!!
- Fixed the loading bug occuring on some Servers ( ones with "-" in their name)
- Addon now saves settings even when the Version Number Changes (FOR ALL VERSIONS AFTER THIS ONE)
- Addon now supports profiles! (BE SURE TO SAVE YOUR PROFILE BEFORE TRANSFERRING TO ANOTHER SERVER!!!!)
- Menu Button Changes
- General Options Window is now shown by SHIFT+Rightclick
- Tasty Buttons Options are now Shown with Rightclick
- Leftclick now toggles RvR and PvE mode of the Buttons (Red is RvR)
- Option Window has been completely REWORKED
- HIDING ACTIONBARS IS NOW DONE WITH PHANTOM! (Till i find out how to get rid of the LayoutEditor Bug)
KEYBINDINGS
The Keybindings of TastyButtons work! When using TastyButtons to fully replace your Actionbars you need to DISABLE the Keybindings for them using TastyButtons. This is done by opening the General Options Window and clicking the button that reads "Bar HotKeys (on)" so it shows "Bar HotKeys (off)"! If you do not do this your Hotkeys will be primarily bound to the Actionbars and do not trigger the Tasty Buttons but the ActionBar buttons. So make sure you disable them!

Using Custom Textures
You can either create the Buttons with the shape you want them to be, or change the Textures afterwards. (Changing the ButtonTextures afterwards needs a reloadui for changes to ake effect!) Each Button has it's own settings for the textures and shape it uses! Which means you can have Round Buttons with custom texture along with Square buttons with default Textures. Mix them up as you please! (As an Example look at the picture of Vidhars UI)
Making your own Textures
In the folder "Custom Textures" (which resides in the folder iof TastyButtons) are all the Textures you can change. We have implemented 2 Templates for the Buttons in the *.xcf format. These Templates can be used as a base to create Textures for the Buttons. We have also implemented Examples for the recharge animation.
Refer to the readme.txt in the "Custom Textures" folder for more information!
You can customize the Fonts of the Hotkey and the Cooldown to your liking by setting them in the Advanced Options Window. You can also change the Color by typing in the values for Red Green and Blue in the appropriate EditBoxes. If a Edit Box is Empty it will set the value to zero by default. The Max Value is 255 for each of the Elements ( Refer to http://web.njit.edu/~kevin/rgb.txt.html for colors).
To Actually Set the font you have to click the Accroding buttons below the Options. To set the color you have to check the little round checkbox at the right side of the RGB Edit Boxes!
The OOR (Out of Range) Tint can also be set now.
The ABC Color is the Color that is either used when ABC Mode is enabled (Derived from ABC Color) Or when the Action on the Button is not enabled.
The Color is now previewd along with the selected Font in the Label next to ComboBox where you choose your font!

Toggle ActionBars
ACTIONBAR HIDING IS NOW DONE WITH PHANTOM!
You can still disable the Hotkeys for the Actionbars with TastyButtons though. Which should be done if you want to Use TastyButtons to replace your normal ActionBars!
- Rows: Type in the count of Rows you want to have
- Columns: Type in the count of Columns you want to have
- Spacing: The Space between the Rows!
RvR and PvE
You can create Buttons for RvR and PvE now. this two modes are completely Separated from each other. If you activate the RvR mode then all
buttons with an RvR mode on them WILL Swap to that. Buttons not having a RvR "mode" will load the PvE "mode".
Changing the Mode can be done by Left Clicking the Wrench or by clicking the Text in the State View of the Options Window
You can also Let The Bars AutoSwap By activating the the "Auto Mode Change" Option!
The Button will then swap to RvR mode when your HostileTarget is an Enemy Player!
The Showing Option
Set this to true if you want the Button to be visible in the state. False hides the Button in the state
With /tasty hide <buttons> you can hide buttons. (Example /tasty hide 1 2 5 hides buttons 1,2 and 5)
With /tasty show <buttons> you can make them visible again
Hiding the buttons means they wont be visible the whole time. If you make them visible again via /show they will still hide if the state they are in is set to hide the button! YOU CAN NOT USE THE BUTTONS WHEN THEY ARE HIDDEN! EVEN THE HOTKEY WONT WORK!
With /tasty invis <buttons> or /tasty invisible <buttons> you can hide buttons, they won't be visible to you but you can still use them via the Hotkey Slot!
With /tasty vis <buttons> or /tasty visible <buttons> u can make the buttons visible again.
This button deletes all current Buttons and then Creates buttons depending on the count of actionbars that are currently visible! THIS DOES ONLY SUPPORT THE NATIVE MYTHIC LAYOUTS! (ie. NOT MORE THAN 4 BARS AND NOT 3 BARS!)
Additionaly it will automatically add the skills to the buttons for the according stances.
Before Pressing this button make sure you are in no stance and select the first page on your ActionBar!
After Pressing it plz type /reloadui to reload the ui once. This is needed to fix a Tooltip bug :/
You can set a Hotkey for your button by acessing your Key Mapping and editing the equal HotbarButton hotkeys (under the Hotbars tab). So if you Create Button 1 to 10, they will be mapped like the first Hotbar (Key 1 to 0)
To Create Buttons OUTSIDE of the Hotbar Range you have to create Buttons from 47 upwards. You can set Hotkeys till button 120 in the Key Mapping Menu. You can create as many buttons as you wish to create (i just restricted it to the buttonnumber 999 cause no one will need more than 999 buttons)
Purpose of this button is only to change the Showing Parameter for a State
Clears up the current State for the selected Button(s)
Clear All
This clears ALL states for the selected Button(s)
Reset States
This Button REMOVES all states and stances except the default States and normal Stance of the Button!
OnResource
Uses a greater or equal compare ( >= ) on every resource except the ones of Disciple of Khaine and the Warrior Priest. There it is a smaller or equal ( <= ) comparsion!
A few Tips
- You can clear a buttonstate by "Shift+Rightclicking" it
- Use the ButtonInfo Window to set the skills for your states (even though the button in there sometimes is bugged :( )
- Report bugs that disturb you along with the error Message in the debug window (if one is given). This helps getting rid of the bug faster ;)
- Thank you for using TastyButtons! Greetz MrOffline & Vidhar
