Bartender or Trinity

[Djarid]

Same with Trinity, I copy my 'locks config from one to the other 3 (I also copied my priests to the Locks to get the X-keys layout setup the same everywhere)

[Depherios]

Yeah, gave Trinity a shot, it still does what it's always done since 1, modifier paging is a bit buggy.

Press down alt: Get the alt bar.
Press down shift: Get the shift bar.
Release Alt: Goes back to the main bar instead of the shift bar.

Drives me NUTS. :wacko:

May just get used to it if Infinibar is too heavy.

Inifibar can be paged with macro states, as I prefer page states to more buttons (I fail at "piano" style keybindings lol) More page states FTW:

Can't wait for my new CPU/RAM, want to try crap like:

[nomodifier,target=focustarget,exsists] <-- standard assist.
[mod:alt,target=focus,exsists] <-- heal the leader
[mod:alt,mod:shift,target=player] <-- heal themselves

and the reason I was using it BEFORE I multiboxed... the ability to have pages for modifier combinations (which nothing but marsbar and infinibar really do anymore, but I got hooked on with Flexbar baaack in the day.

[mod:alt,mod:shift] <-- page when alt AND shift are down
[mod:alt,mod:shift,mod:ctrl] <-- page when alt, shift, and control are down!

I tried Trinity Bars TWICE but I can never get past the set up stage... so I keep going back to Bartender

[Djarid]

?? what is difficult about the setup stage?

create a bar... set the options, clone it as many times as you need

setup each button as a macro

set the keybindings, remembering to remove them from the builtin key bindings or they reset on login

oh ok then

The trinity template system is also godly if you respec your character or want to rebind keys for solo play.

I respec my main shaman enhnancement when I raid, and it takes about two seconds between TrinityBars to just click my Enhancement template set and it swaps all of my buttons/bars/macros/keybindings automagically. Talented (a mod for talent templates) also helps.

Make fun of me all you want, I don't know if it's my graphics card or driver, or if I'm downloading a crappy version of Trinity, but when I try to clone a bar or add/remove buttons the damn bar disappears, never to be seen again.

Well, I don't care anyway, BT3 is easier to set up and uses less memory, it works for me

Been there, done that! When this happens notice the x,y coordinates in the bar config window. I've often seen that the new bar was hiding off screen. You can just type in new coordinates and press enter to get the bar to where you can see it.

Sorry mate, it wasn't supposed to be a piss take, the initial question was honestly asked and as I answered it I realised that there was in fact a bit of effort required.

I tried bartender3 and hated it, it was clumsy and clunky and horrible, When I first moved to trinity it wasn't much better, but due to the macros, I persevered and now find the new interface very easy and intuitive
