[WoW] Hiding and showing the UI

[MiRai]

I'm going to assume that because there are secure actions involved, that you're going to need an add-on to accomplish what you want:

<Binding name="TOGGLEUI">
        if ( UIParent:IsShown() ) then
            securecall("CloseMenus");
            securecall("CloseAllWindows");
            UIParent:Hide();
            SetUIVisibility(false);
            ActionStatus_DisplayMessage(format(UI_HIDDEN, GetBindingText(GetBindingKey("TOGGLEUI"), "KEY_")))
        else
            UIParent:Show();
            SetUIVisibility(true);
        end

But even if you could create a macro solely for toggling the UI you would still need to bind it to a key for it to function...

So, why not just change the key binding from ALT+Z to something easier to press? Are you looking to save on computer resources by toggling off the UI?

It is possible to do from a Macro.

/script UIParent:Hide();
/script SetUIVisibility(false);

will hide it

and conversely

/script UIParent:Show();
/script SetUIVisibility(true);

will show it.

Well, then... There you go. >_>
