| 17:21.15 | Simca_ | Hey TheDanW, is there any way to figure out what Phase you're in? I know UIMapID->UIMapArtID should consider phaseID (it's keyed that way anyway) but I don't know if the API exposes that value anywhere |
| 17:22.36 | Simca_ | so like if i record a mob location, it's going to default to the Phase 0 version of the map if I try to display it on a database site. to tie to map art properly we'd need to know phase too unless i'm wrong |
| 17:25.41 | AcidWeb | Anybody have any clever idea how to detect if line in multiline EditBox is wrapped due to widget width? |
| 17:27.27 | TheDanW | Simca_: i don't think there is, i'd prefer to have a way to find your phase and then C_Map.GetMapArtID would take that as a parameter, but we didn't have time to solve that in 8.0.1, it uses C state to determine that presently |
| 17:28.35 | Simca_ | alright, it's not a super huge deal as phasing of maps is not mega common and we can hard code preferred arts (i.e. level 3 garrison, post-sword silithus, etc) but could be nice for future |

| 20:25.25 | ls- | TheDanW: there's a problem w/ unit popups, in UnitPopup_HideButtons you do this https://github.com/Gethe/wow-ui-source/blob/live/FrameXML/UnitPopup.lua#L852, which is the same as UIDROPDOWNMENU_INIT_MENU.guid = guid, the problem is, that .guid is never niled afterwards, so the same guid is used later for other unit popups due to how UnitPopup_GetGUID and many other helper funcs are implemented, for instance, https://github.com/Gethe/wow-ui-source/blob/live/FrameX |
| 20:26.46 | ls- | TheDanW: another problem is that C_VoiceChat.IsPlayerUsingVoice and prob many other APIs don't like *target units: targettarget, focustarget, etc, which also is a problem for addons :p |
