Donations
I'm sure it comes as no surprise that addons like this and many other consume a large amount of time. I love the process involved in projects like these and my own intentions are usually what spawn the creation of some of my addon. That being said, the occasional donation always means a lot and is never turned down! Although I don't accept PayPal, if you would ever like to donate in-game gold you can send it to me
@Vicster0. As always, thanks for all the support! Cheers!
Introduction
This is a somewhat simple addon that allows the player to customize their settings menu. With many addons comes many settings panels for the various addons in the in game menu. Options Restacker provides the player with the ability to do alphabetical or customize sorting of their settings list. With the customized list, the player can chose to "hide" some settings panels for addons they don't need access to on a regular basis in order to clear up the clutter. (For safety reasons, OptionsRestacker cannot currently be hidden.) The player can also clear all color formatting from the settings titles. If you are like me and you can't stand color in setting titles, you'll love this feature.
Player Features- Sort "settings" alphabetically!
- Or, use the customization frame in the options panel for OptionsRestacker to customized the order of your settings menu and/or hide settings!
- Clear color formatting from setting titles!
Usage
Use the in game menu options panel found under "settings."
The color option can be turned On/Off from the /restacker commands... I may add more of these in the future.
Notes/Issues
I have cleaned up the UI and most of the weird buggy issues. The controls menu is kinda weird if you try to customize it's order as it does it backwards. Not entirely sure about this, but you probably don't want to sort them anyway as it always opens the primary option.
Updates
Update 4 - [v0.1.5] - Patch
- Updated to ESO UI API version 100004
Update 3 - [v0.1.4] - Patch
- Addressed a language bug with headers that were saved in other languages and not cleaned up causing errors.
- Added cleanup routine to remove other language headers that where saved but do not exist in current session.
Update 2 - [v0.1.3] - Patch
- Addressed a bug that caused clients running in different languages to bug out as the addon was not localization aware. It should now sort and handle the menus regardless of what language they are in. The settings will however be associated to the language they were configured in if you happen to switch between languages.
- Addressed a bug that was causing the 'Controls' menu items to be completely missing if the options to 'Ignore Default Settings Panels' was enabled.
Update 1 - [v0.1.2] - Patch
- Complete overhaul of the UI, cleaning up the appearance and functionality.
- Added informational tooltips to help guide you to your personalized settings menu.
- Fixed a bug that was causing the menu to remain the same size as you removed controls. This is only compensated for now (still a small ammount of extra space) but it's a lot better.
- Added a feature to allow the default menu items to remain unsorted and only sort addon settings.
- Removed the option to close the frame inside of the options pane which would require a UI reload if done.
- Probably a few other things I'm forgetting...
