lua click through

[Xnn]

So I'm editing a wonderful addon CoolDownLine, and several people suggested the ability to lock the frame. However using <Frame>:EnableMouse(false) doesn't work; there has to be some other way to tell the game not to interact with mouse clicks!

(then I think you could do something like)

Spoiler:

if input1 == "width" then MaxLength = tonumber(input2)
elseif input1 == "height" then MaxHeight = tonumber(input2)
elseif input1 == "offset" then CDLSAVES.Offset = tonumber(input2)
elseif input1 == "default" then MaxLength = 750;MaxHeight = 40;CDLSAVES.Offset = -50
elseif input1 == "lock" then CoolDownLine:EnableMouse(false)
else
CoolDownLine:EnableMouse(true)

If I can figure that out, I think I have everything else changed so you can enter in "/CDL lock" as a toggle. If anyone knows how to do this please help and I will post the code if I get it working! =D

Another likely easier option is to allow it to only be moved when CTRL is pressed. Not quite a lock option but the chances of accidentally clicking on it WHILE also happening to hold down control is so low it's the next best thing.

Have no idea how to do it but probably something simple...

You can set an "lock toggler" with something like:

Code: Select all

elseif input1 == "lock" then WindowSetHandleInput("CoolDownLineWnd",not WindowGetHandleInput("CoolDownLineWnd"))

You can set an "lock toggler" with something like:

Worked like a charm! Here is the text that you copy and paste over the CoolDownLine.lua file:

Oh! And it looks like you are the author. Hopefully I helped with an update. =D

[sullemunk]

Just a fyi, i made the Cooldownline addon, but it's rather absoleete for me since i have made a another revision of it that works a bit better / is more refined

Oh really? And what is the name of that one?
