Ok got a question and I think this is the place to ask. LMK if not.
I am redoing a lot of my UI/hotkeys and I'm putting a lot of effort into maximizing the utility of
Button Master.
In your videos Sic it looks like you have some
Button Master buttons but they have what looks like up/down arrows on the end of some of the rows that you can scroll through "rows or pages" of buttons. I didn't see any mention of that in the
Button Master documentation and looking at the chat here I am guessing it has something to do with these types of commands "Page3Button5Name=Chase ON" in the
StinkyPete post or is that just for the standard hotkeys?
I am turning over a new leaf and no longer just throwing copied code unless I am sure I know what it does.
I basically want to make a
Start-up tab that has the hotkeys with commands to start the /mac,
/lua,
/plugin that I want to use that session i.e. no need to autostart
overseer if I'm running a new group that isn't big enough to use it, or turn on
HunterHud if I'm not farming named. It will also have all the commands to make a group with roles and auto-accept and add their name to the autofeed/autodrink list. Then a
Class tab to run class-specific /mac,
/lua,
/plugin for
Cauldron or
MassEnchant... I just remembered I am going to try to get
https://www.redguides.com/community/resources/easy-lua.2647/
running (which is what started my crisis a few days ago because I was afraid to use
DanNet with EQBCS) so I won't need a lot of these buttons if I get that working the way I want but regardless.
Then I was hoping to have rows of
Level buttons with an up/down scroll function so if I'm playing a level 20 group and I click a button called "invis group" it will have the caster invis everyone then itself, but if I start playing my level 80 group I just scroll to my level 80 section that has AA buttons instead of cast commands so the "invis group" button there would just activate aa 2110 for a perfected group invis.
I am ultimately trying to reduce my redundant actions; every time I make a group I have to make a bunch of hotkeys, then remake them 20 levels later, and so on... This should let me spend a bit more time setting it up but take way less time when I make new groups to get them up and running and if I decide to change the way I do things, I can probably just change one hotkey instead of having to change a bunch of hotkeys on 40 different toons spread over 6 accounts. I know I could just make a "spell invis" button and an "AA invis" button but I am thinking there are a lot of buttons that I would have to make like that for bards song vs AA etc. So I'm just wondering if what I have described is possible.
I know I over-explain myself but I often find that when I ask short specific questions I get a quick answer only to find two weeks later that the little question I asked was possible but my overall intent was impossible and I could have saved days that were spent on a massive undertaking if I had announced my intentions from the start. Man,
I'm over-explaining about over-explaining!
Sorry for being so loquacious; It's a shame you can't hear my dulcet baritone voice. When I converse with people this long they tend to melt into quivering puddles at my feet...
Just kidding! When I talk to my wife this long she normally says,
"SHUT UP OR GET TO THE POINT!"
Edit: How do you link to /Lua /Mac like in sic's post above? https://www.redguides.com/community/threads/sics-hotkeys.69365/post-535952 I have done it before but it was probably just a random chance that I copied the proper way for it to display a box instead of a long link.
