Active Quest bug work around
1 Attachment(s)
This is a work around for the bug in the active quest window. You can read more in the thread on the eq2 forums here:
http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/p...opic_id=382497 Basically the client is resizing and moving the object containing the steps when you get a timed quest or delete or finish a timed quest. It's incorrectly doing this causing the steps to scroll in a strange way. I added an outline to the TreeContainer object so it's easy to see the problem. Here are some screenshots. Before accepting the timed step of a tradeskill rush order quest everything looks ok. After you accept the timed step. After finishing (or deleting) the timed step. The attached xml file has a work around for this bug. When you're on a timed quest or after you finish a timed quest just click on the name of the quest. There's a hidden button that resizes the TreeContainer object correctly so it would look like this. Hopefully SOE will fix this since it's a pretty obvious bug. Until then you can use this work around. |
Highly appreciated! :nana:
Nothing worse than doing a rush order and only seeing a small part of what you need to complete, despite having made the active journal window large enough to hold the quest! |
Good thing the scroll bar auto-hides in my UI anyway, probably because of that that I have never noticed this bug before (if it is even present in ProfitUI).
Reading your description I'm just wondering why you can't resize automatically OnShow/OnHide of the timer? |

Err, if they don't fix it by the time I get tired of thinking about it I'll put a hidden timer delay in. |
Btw, I was unable to reproduce this bug with ProfitUI. I assume the reason is that I have placed the timer in the titlebar of my window, so there is no repositioning going on for the TreeDSContainer.

While I was looking at it I noticed a strange bug though. You can't resize the window from the bottom edge. If you try to grab the bottom edge of the active quest window you actually grab the bottom edge of the TreeContainer page and you can make it smaller like this. I added the outline to that page just to be able to see it better. This seems to be unrelated to the timed quest bug. After you do this you can resize the window from the bottom edge and you can still resize the TreeContainer smaller, but not larger. |
Yup I noticed that as well when trying it out, will have to fix that, thanks.

Hmm, after looking at this some more it's even stranger. You can grab the bottom edge of the JournalsQuestDetail page (which makes the scrollbar change size) and you can grab the bottom edge of the TreeContainer page. I have no idea why you can grab so many bottom edges in that window.

Agreed, it should not be possible, those subwindows are not user-resizeable.
Easily fixed/worked around by slapping a GetsInput="false" on the JournalsQuestDetail page though. Done. Next bug please. ;) |
