Anchoring WA to LFG | WeakAuras Community | Page 1

I have a WA that's position is anchored on the LFG panel. However, when I log into a character initially the WA is not anchored to the LFG panel until an event has fired from one of my triggers.

The trigger events are PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD,WA_DELAYED_PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD,VARIABLES_LOADED,LOADING_SCREEN_DISABLED,ENCOUNTER_END,PLAYER_LEAVE_COMBAT,PLAYER_REGEN_ENABLED,CURRENCY_DISPLAY_UPDATE,QUEST_TURNED_IN,PLAYER_LEVEL_UP,GLOBAL_MOUSE_DOWN,GLOBAL_MOUSE_UP
If I change this to Every Frame it works but that seems like overkill for my situation.

I assume PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD would be sufficient but that doesn't seem to be the case.

PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD triggers before weakaurs is loaded.
Use WA_DELAYED_PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD

That event is listed second in my list.

#

Why do you have a thousand events listed there? How do you anchor your frame to the lfg window?

#

That looks like you just started to list all kind of random events

Why do you have a thousand events listed there?
I have 12. I did base this on another Wago, but the events are things that would trigger badge collections to recalculate your current amount.

There is a event for getting currency, all others are wrong

#

In what context? How does that effect my issue I'm seeing? I have other actions that enable/disable views on my WA based on mouse clicks.

#

Without seeing the full weakaira, as it seems very complex, I can't tell you what goes wrong. I also have to go to work now and can't look at it. But you can post the aura and someone else can look at it

#

But having 3 events for logging in shows something is foshy

#

It's 4 events

Here's the export string.

To wago please, that just makes it harder to look at

#

Click, ctrl-a the file then ctrl-v into WA no?

#

Many of those that help out don't have wow open right now or aren't even on a computer

#

It's possible to read the Lua table in the case of a non custom trigger, it's impossible to read the encoded gibberish.

#

Wago allows it to read the actual code too without being on a computer.

See this message for details on the perils of trying to make Auras clickable https://discordapp.com/channels/172440238717665280/413380679410384896/658065745699274752

the way you structured this you might as well just make an addon

peak agate Jul 3, 2023, 10:20 AM

#

The first they will ask in the ticket is to remove all mentions and changes to the region. That can and will make problems.

Regardless of my WA implementation. None of that addresses my original issue. I've created a smaller WA to reproduce what I'm seeing https://wago.io/8sYmh8I6S

Anchor to LFG

Wago.io is a database of sharable World of Warcraft addon elements

#

The anchor works after I load up the WA menu and close it.

I can fix the issue to anchor the WA properly if I add a dummy default trigger (the configuration from just clicking add trigger).

#

But I'm still wondering why WA_DELAYED_PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD wouldn't trigger it to anchor correctly on logging in.
