G window needs work
When logging from one toon to an other, it keeps the spells. So when going from necro to guard, it keeps the necro spells in G window, But if i Log completely of the game and back on other toon, it has the correct spells.

Seems like it dosent pick up saved spells in game, after reboot of game, it remembers em all.

After looking, it seems its the icons that dosent update, spells are still behind but wrong icons

Darqwood

Zhades, after you set up spell icons for multiple characters for the first time, you should log all the way out to the desktop once to set them. The window manager help page has a paragraph explaining this in more detail. After you have done this once, switching between characters will load all the correct buttons as expected.

Dosent work for me,,
i made it all over on the necro, camped to desktop, logged on guard, worked fine, did in game swap to necro, he has spells, but guards icons.
Yes i did complete save on necro all 5 save keys, for each spell, and hit ok for them all.. camped all the way out, but guard icons seems glued.

Zhadez

The toon i start the game with, is the spell i am having in Group window that session,
boot game with guard, Group spells stays guard on all toons that session,
Start game on ranger, Group spells are ranger for all that session.

It remembers all of the toons, but only on fresh reboot of game. loggin to carr select aint enough.
When i go to Darqui settings in Group window, it shows all the right things, it just dosent update the Group icons.

Any thought on how i could solve it ?

Zhadez

Besides the issues i have with the icons, this ui is by far the best out there. Tried Darq when it went live, newer looked back.


Only thing i ever really missed when forming Raids, is a Quik invite NeXT to guildmembers name, in guildwindow.


Amasing Work.

Darqwood

Zhadez, if the Window Manager settings are showing the correct icons whenever you switch between characters, then there is something unexpected going on with the display of the icons, not the function of the group window. The Window Manager gets its settings directly from the UI pieces themselves and not from the saved data, so it works as a diagnostic for your customizations. In this case, the group window is giving the correct custom information to the Window Manager but is not displaying it when you switch characters. By chance are you loading two characters with the same name, but on different servers?

Mermut

Feeling real stupid here.. but how do I bring the layout editor up in game to set things up?

Darqwood

Mermut, click the blue gem in the upper left corner of the group window, then click the Settings tab. Choose "Custom" layout mode and the editor will be on the right hand side of the window manager.

No they are all different named toons, on same server.
Have deleted all files, and did reinstall 2 times, still same issue, but i can se i am not the only one, people having same issue with Darqui 2.3.3 wich i was thinking of going back to now you added the features there.
Got everything to Work like a charm, and love this UI, i will just live with wrong icons for now, spells Work just look wrong. Ui keeps the icons from the first toon i enter game with. I just relog from desktop if i really need em for raid for now.

Mermut

Thanks
I'm in the process of manually 'copying' character settings from Darqui 2.3 to live.. is there any way to copy the key settings over by moving or renaming files or something of the like?

Darqwood

No, the two interfaces have very different ways of saving customizations. Although an "export to live" feature in the utility is not a bad idea at all. /ponder

This looks awesome, Darq! I would probably switch over to this if there were an export feature. And I just might test it out, anyway. Out of curiosity, is there a performance hit in-game with this version, or is it just as nice as the original in that regard?

BTW, nice updates recently!

Darqwood

Hi Cearra, thank you

In almost every case the new DarqUI Live windows will perform similarly to the original. The main body of the code is generally the same between versions, the difference being the initial loading of customizations. With the original version, the utility injects custom settings directly into the UI pieces while the Live version loads and saves settings using "include" files from the EQII mapping system. Once your character is loaded using either version, performance is going to be very similar from that point on.

I hope you'll kick the tires on the new Live version. I remember you were one of the players with more than 8 characters, and this interface was built to accommodate players with many alts.
