No way to open a new Hotbar

Not sure if there is something I'm missing or not but I'm telling you the very last pixel in any side / corner of my hotbar isn't bringing down the open new hotbar box. I've removed all icons off my hotbar, made Icon Size: 122 / Icon Padding: 25 and still no dice.

I've only just installed this UI and spent _ages_ trying to get a new hotbar open. It is possible, but it probably took me 10 minutes of repeated 'near the edge' clicking to do it!!

Updates for this issue have been put out for other UI's, can we expect one for Profit?

i was able to open new hotbars but only by clicking the small box in the bottom right hand corner of the MAIN hotbar ( i forgot the window setting to make that box appear ). The problem now is i can't close the new hotbar ;P

Haven't see a GM9 post since 3/3 so tend to think he may be on a (hopefully) temporary leave of absence. In the meantime it may be easist to just delete the hotbar mod from your ProfitUI folder and install one from another interface.

Personally I've avoided the issue by using my 'buff bar' and toggleing it to my 'tradeskill bar' when crafting rather than opening a new hotbar for tradeskills like I normally do.

Edit: typos

Found a work around!!

Go into Hot key settings and enlarge the tool bar and select show spinner (don't know if this is necessary but I did it this way).

Then go into windows settings and make sure all your opacities for all 6 categories are set on full! Also, make sure you select show frame and titlebar or show frame (whichever option is available, can't remember now if titlebar is an option or not). Click okay or whatever the set option is to close out the window.

Then, drag to shape your hot key bar so there is an uneven number of squares on each row for instance 10 on the top and 2 on the bottom. Now when you see your hot bar on the screen you should see dead space in black.

Click in the lower right hand corner near the small square and all the hot key menu options will appear.

Woot, took me 2 days to figure this out, and made last night's raid oh so much fun. LOL.

Yeah I did it the same way pretty much as you, all you have to do is make the box to be an off set of boxes, 5-5-2 etc and click the open area and it should work.

Still, far too much hassle unless you absolutely need to open a new bar.

Is there any way to edit the XML files to increase the exterior icon padding of the hotbars by 1? If so post a quick little tutorial if it's easy enough. -shrug- At least until this can get updated and fixed.

Been using this method recently myself, sort of annoying, but better than taking apart my hotbars to open a new one. :-/

OH! And just because I wanna use it:
