So I am 4 boxing my new toons, warrior, priest, mage, shaman, and the roll windows are positioned differently on each toon. When I try and click greed two click need two click greed. Is there a way to move the default positioning on these windows? I am playing on one screen so the resolution is the same on all of them.

I couldn't find a console command to do it, but I never looked very hard. Any time someone asked about moving the location of something, people always suggest MoveAnything (http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/move-anything) or FluidFrames (http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/info7080-FluidFrames.html).

That might help but it seems like it would be difficult to position them perfectly on every screen. Does either of these have accessable X and Y coordinates?

Not sure, but you can always try copying the LUA from the master to the slaves once you have it set up.

I saw this thread the other day and I'll be honest, I don't think your resolutions are matching up. Within the default UI the
loot roll windows should have a set X,Y coordinate in which they never move from and those coordinates are not randomly
chosen when you create a new character. Obviously, if you're using some sort of add-on then this could change the position.

I've been wrong in the past but, if you could double check this for me... turn on repeating with SHIFT+ALT+R and compare the
mouse cursor's position on your main screen to your slave screen from while moving the mouse from the upper left hand
corner to the bottom right hand corner of the screen.

That might be the case, MiRai. If so, that makes things simple. I did notice that certain windows didn't really scale well in the default WoW UI, like the purchase confirmation window. It might have had something to do with the way text scaled on the buttons or something, but I don't really remember.

Oh, and traedoril, with ISBoxer, you can also turn on repeater for the mouse and simply position all the windows on all the screens at the same time.

The addon in question is gonna be bartender 4, I can already say. It appears that the loot window positioning is directly based on where my bars are located.

Ex. My hunter has a pet bar but my Priest does not this appears to be moving the default position of the loot window.

I am thinking I will have to download MoveAnything when I get home and try positioning the windows in the exact position on the screen.

What is the default key for mouse repeater?

That would probably be it. I know Dominos comes with a module to change the position of loot roll windows but, they all start
in the same place and are not dependent on anything else.


What is the default key for mouse repeater?Reread my prior post, it's in there. (http://isboxer.com/wiki/WoW:Quick_Start_Guide?Hotkeys_created_by_the_Quick _Setup_Wizard_for_WoW#Hotkeys_created_by_the_Quick _Setup_Wizard_for_WoW)

Shift + Alt + R is the broadcast for keyboard and mouse from khatovar's post I gathered there was a mouse only broadcast key

No there is no default key that is automatically set up for just mouse broadcasting. I guess I'm confused... Is the keyboard
portion of broadcasting interfering with re-positioning your loot windows while using the mouse or is this an entirely different
question?

It was an entirely different question sorry about that.

I would normally encourage creating a new thread but, I'll answer it since it's quick and easy.

Just make a copy of the existing key map, change the hotkey, change the key combination, and remove the actions that
enable/disable the keyboard portion of the repeater.

Sorry this got way off topic. I didn't want to make a new key map I was basing my question off what he said before about it. I have the info I need now thank you though
