Description
Welcome to TonicBars
The concept is a Bar (quickbar) manager. It will allow you to create Bars and manage different attributes for them. To compliment traditional bars, is a new concept called Extensions. The idea though is that you select a quickslot on your main bar you want to extend. You then indicate which direction you want this bar to extend into. There is a list of predefined configurations such as: Hunter Travel, Warden Travel, LM Combat Pets, LM Cosmetic Pets, and many more.

TonicBars Can:
  • Organize skills, items, mounts, pets, and more onto Quick-Bars for easy access.
  • Automatically Manage your Classes skills to unclutter the screen
    • Stances
    • Tiered
    • Defeat Response
    • And More!
  • Trigger those bars to display under certain circumstances.
    • In-combat
    • Poisoned, Wounded, Feared, Diseased
    • Based on Class Specific Buffs!!!
    • Alt, Control, Shift Pressed
    • Health/Power Drops below some Percentage
  • Customize the Bars in terms of:
    • How many Rows / Columns of quickslots to show (aka, the size of the bar)
    • Spacing between the quickslots
    • Size of quickslots (will improve this soon)
    • Bar Background Color, Bar Opacity, Shortcut Opacity, Remove Opacity when moused over
  • Add Extensions to a bar (hide skills, but get to them Quick)
    • Display Extension when moused over
    • Display Extension when moused over & Roll up the selection to main bar
    • Randomly pick a shortcut on mouse over
    • Cycle through shortcuts on the extension on mouse over
  • Copy bars, Reset Bars, Copy the entire bar setup from another character on the same server.

TonicBars works with DragBars:
Make sure to Download and install DragBar, it's not required, but highly Recommended!!! This will make TonicBars work similar to Standard Turbine Bars (you can move windows around using the ctrl-\ command).

v3.0.1_beta
-Working on a new interface. Completely changes how you interact and manage bars. This should drastically improve usability.
-Still working on spacing problems.
-Have all bar types except for Inventory Bars working. (still working on this one)
-Fixed Versioning
v2.9.1
-Fixed stupid include problem
v2.9
-Added basic Mount Triggers - You can now specify that you want this bar to trigger when Not Mounted. That means that some of your skills that you used to have ALWAYS Visible you need to change to be Triggered based on NOT MOUNTED. That will produce a similar effect.
-Mounted
-Not Mounted
-Combat Mounted
-Not Combat Mounted
v2.8.4
- Fixed issue editing Inventory Bars
v2.8.3
- Fixed issues where Shortcuts were not being remembered.
- Fixed issues where bars movement was not preserved across loads.
- Fixed Visibility issues on General Menu.
v2.8.2
-Fixed issue with Bars showing up every login in edit mode.
-Bars should now remain in the same spots regardless of resolution.
v2.8.1
-Removed Dependency on Turbine Libraries
v2.8
-Pushed back in my Drag and drop code from a year+ ago and it works great now. That means:
  • Skills can be SWAPPED like the Turbine Bars... take a skill and drag and drop it over antoher one and they will swap instead of overwrite.
  • Skills between bars can now be Swapped.
-Migrated settings from my own SettingMenu to Turbines PluginManager
  • Removed the graphical launcher utility (the little goblet icon to launch settings)
  • To get to TonicBar Settings use: /tb or /tonicbars or use the PluginManager
  • Added "Edit Mode"
  • You can now Edit your bars when the Settings menu is NOT active.
  • When you go into settings now, the bars are not immediately highlighted. To see the highlighted bars, click "Edit Mode".
  • If you leave settings are the bars are still highlighted, you will have to go back into settings and click "Edit Mode" to turn that off.
  • This fixed many defects with Scrolling and displaying items
  • Removed Black Square when scrolling through QuickBars
  • Cleaned up code around menu panels etc.
-Should have fixed: \Plugins\Tonic\UI\MenuUtils.lua:192: attempt to compare string with number errors
-Should have fixed: \Plugins\Tonic\TonicBars\SettingsManager.lua:233: attempt to concatenate local 'barid' (a nil value)
-Fixed the extensions wrapping when horizonal and larger than 5 columns (hope I didn't re-introduce the original problem).
-When you click on a TAB at the top of a bar, it doesn't highlight the BAR in the settings anymore.
-Started using the new LUA Class structure.

v2.7
-Fixes warden stances on easy bars
-Fixes issues with extension extending VERY far on the screen
-Fixes easy bar text for loremasters and hunters
v2.6.3
-Tried to address the dropping of Inventory Items in Inventory Bars
-Tried to address Extension problems when autoloading
-Added support for the LOTRO Plugin Compendium

I've just been testing this out and love it! It's fab for the most part, but I have had some bars that were working on initial setup, not reload after relogging.

I too, have this error when adding some items (the one below is a mount):

Code:
...nline\Plugins\Tonic\TonicBars\Bars\QuickslotList.lua:132: attempt to index field '?' (a nil value)
[edit]To look into the "not saving issue" I just tried
  • Setting up an extension, populating it, then relogging. Seems to work.
  • Setting up an extension then exiting seems NOT to work

But I'm not sure it's consistent on the first point. Is it something I'm doing wrong, or something I'm not doing?


Just thinking out loud and I'm happy to test things if you want?

FibroJedi

PS the only thing that would make this more awesome would be to set a non-clickable "anchor" slot. e.g. a horse icon representing mounts that can't be clicked but just unfurls the extension. I don't know if that's even possible though!

Loading Failure

I've been using TonicBars extensively since I started playing, on more than 20 alts. But randomly some of the alts refuse to load it, and I'm stuck with just the normal Quickslots.
I've refreshed and now have the new version, but still have the problems
Two error messages (different alts)
MysticBars v3.0.1 from MyysticOwl

On a hobbit
...s Online\Plugins\Tonic\TonicBars\Bars\BarManager.lua :148: attempt to call method 'RegisterBarExtension' (a nil value)
On more than one Beorning (but not all)
...Online\Plugins\Tonic\TonicBars\Events\BuffEvent s.lua:91: attempt to index field '?' (a nil value)

I have a few questions/problems

Hi NuclearTonic,
I know this is a long post and I hope you have time to read it. If you have any questions about my problems, I'll be happy to answer them as precisely as I can.

I've been using your plugin since the beginning and I've always been very happy to have it. Thank you for all the work and time you have already invested in it.

After a long time in which I only played sporadically and never saw the need to update, I'm now playing regularly again and encountered a problem.

I have a main bar on the right side of the screen and each field folds out a new bar to the left, but you know what your plugin does.
Now to the problem. Right next to this bar I have my task overview, now when the list is so full that it gets to the place where the bars fold out to the side, they are under the tasks window and I can't use them.
However, this only happens if something changes in the task list or I open the list with the ring symbol.
I don't recall having this problem in the past. Could it be that there was a change with an update or extension that caused this behavior, and do you see a possibility on your side to do something about it?

I've already tried to solve all this by updating the plugin to the latest version (beta), because I thought that you might have solved it already. It's still present.

After the update, I was then confronted with the new interface and found it quite good at first. But then I ran into a few problems.
1. If i open manage bars - click on my main bar - click the button to make the bars visible - all extension bars are higlighted.
Unfortunately, the order of the extension bars in the interface is not arranged in the order of the fields and if I click on the bar that I want to edit, the highlighting is removed.
Exactly the opposite of the old version. If you now want to edit several bars, you don't know which bar you have selected.

2. When I experimented with the size of the fields on a char, I had the following problems.
2.1. I enlarged the main bar and of course had to enlarge the extension bars as well. However, the position of these has not adapted to the distances of the enlarged main bar.
They stayed in the same position and no action I took could bring them to the new positions.
2.2. In this context, I thought hiding the bar by removing the hook at the front of the bar and then showing it again would correct the calculation of the positions again. As you can probably imagine,
I didn't know that the entire bar is gone as soon as you remove the hook. Perhaps a warning, or simply an X-button in front of the checkmark to remove the bar would be a way of making editing the bar a bit more intuitive.


Thanks again for your work on this plugin that makes playing LOTRO so much easier and more enjoyable for so many.

Ps: Since English is not my native language, I hope I was able to make my request understandable

Re: Keybinding

Quote:
Is it possible to add keybinds to those bars?
I am looking to use them to mainly replace turbine bars as I play using MMO mouse (so I plan 2 bars each 3x4) and some keybords also (i.e. interrupt, stun, etc..)
Standing Stones doesn't support that. Sorry.

I am so happy the work continues, I love this plugin.

I didn't want to write a ticket but clicked the link the 'Suggestions, Comments, Problems?' section: it does not work.
Ir redirekts to https : // lotro.curseforge.com/migrating

maybe an old link?

BTW: Is there a plan to convert old settings? After update, my bars where still there but all empty (travel-ports and mounts). I restored to previous version until I have the time to do the work by hand again.
I didn't modify Bar Settings (just GUI work), so they should have been good. I'll run some tests and try to get this fixed.

Looks like CurseForge doesn't allow LOTRO anymore... so I'll fix that in the documentation too...

Thanks for the reply!

v3.0.0_beta - First major update for this plugin in a Very Long Time. I have reworked the interface in favor of a TreeView layout. This should create a much more intuitive interaction with the plugin.

Please leave comments / bugs that you might find. Please make sure to back-up your Settings BEFORE UPGRADING!

I've been using it and its mostly fine. A couple of small quirks, but definitely usable.

you couldn't add the buff / debuff option to the settings, more precisely, that the buff / debuff would show up in the numeric value

and you couldn't add a keybind to a single window
