Detach minimap buttons?

[falky]

Hello,

I've got loads of minimap buttons that clog up my minimap so I'd like to move them away and reorder 'em.



Does anyone know if there's a working mod that could allow me to move all buttons where ever I want, maybe even to the fubar above the minimap?

The most promising mod is Detached MiniMap Buttons, but for some reason it reports an error when I enter the game and I can't use it. There's was another that was mentioned on one of forums called "mobile minimap buttons" but it just makes the button movable to other places on the minimap (another angle), not away from it...

If you look at the screenshot you'll see that the "-" button was moved a bit away from the minimap and I did that with "MoveAnything" or however it's called but it can move only a few buttons, mostly wow build in ones, not all of them (like CT ones, SWstats, eCastingbar, etc.)

Anyone got a solution?

You can move the SW stats icon away from the minimap as well - same place on the menu as you can move it round the minimap (and it can't be that hard to find if I managed it )
Dunno about the others tho.

I know there's a mod called like Move Anything. They might have it at CurseGaming. =)

ETA: Erm, sorry, just noticed you mentioned that addon in your post. Nevermind me! XD;;

well there is one thingy but i dont know it's name.

it looks like circle which have around himself those buttons. a lot of screens have that on discordmods.com so you can search there.

I read that the minimap button cluster can be adjusted with DFM (discord frame modifier) so I'll look into it today!

Discord for the win!

I managed to do exactly what I wanted, plus seeing how easy it was I decided to redo my complete UI. I'm still not done but the general idea of it is here. I still have to add some textures to make it look prettier, scale down the minimap cause it takes too much space for my taste, tweak the unit frames and do some other minor tweaking as well.

Pretty much all of this is done with Discord mods - DFM, DUF and DAB. The adversity and possibilities of these mods are amazing. If you put aside enough time to learn about using them, you can do pretty much anything.

About moving minimap buttons:

1. Download DFM and install it, when in game type /dfm

2. Click here

3. After you added the frame you want it's pretty simple. Click on the frame in question, which should be in the list of frames, under the heading you chose. Then click the "Use" checkbox and click on "Drag frame" button. Drag your button around and drop it where you want it. You can play with other options here like scaling down buttons/frames, adding textures, etc., but I'll leave that to you .

Ah yes, if you want to move your minimap as well I suggest first moving the "Minimap Cluster" and after that move every button individually.
