"Bind on next page' gone?

[Ravener]

As a long-time Cosmos user, one of my favorite features has always been to bind a key to activate a function on the next toolbar. That way I can have "Shoot Bow" bound to the S key, for example, and I don't actually have to have a visible "Shoot Bow" icon cluttering up the screen (nor do I have to scroll through six bars to find the correct one). I use this for a mount, shadowmeld, and many other abilities.

Yesterday, with the new BarOptions, I was getting script errors in the Bar Options lua when trying to use those "next bar" keys. Today, those errors are gone, but so is the functionality, and the list in Key Mapping.

PLEASE tell me this feature is not going away. It's so much more elegant than just piling on more toolbars, as your view of the action gets smaller, and smaller...

Thanks guys.

I don't have this prob for I'm not set up the same way, but this is a good topic.

I'll ask the devs about this and see what they say, not familiar with the issue personally.

Make sure to report what the script error is. It is a ton of help when trying to narrow down the problem.

I will discuss this with the rest of the team, and possibly implement it in BarOptions.

For now though, if you don't use all the new bars, you should be able to put the buttons you dont want to have to see on one of the new bars, and then disable the bar. The hotkeys should still work for that bar.

Same should be true of PopBar. (PopBar infact is really good if you want a bar that has stuff you don't need on screen, since it can be set to autohide)

Brilliant!

This works very well for me. Thanks so much for the suggestion.
