I just wanted to say, first of all, that I love you. Don't tell my hubby though. =P Seriously I love this addon. I now FINALLY have my UI looking the way I want it to look. Thank you soooo much.

Second, I don't know if it's because of xbar but since I did install it and a couple of other addons to help compliment it, my Power Aura addon is a little wonky. When I try to set up a new aura, I can, but I can't change the Aura picture's color, the wheel is messed up and "broken". I'll post this info about it to the author there as well. Just wanted to see if anyone else has both and if they are working okay.

Thanks again for giving this ocd chic the perfect addon!

XCompanion Error

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. Well, I seem to have found a work-around. I was getting the error if I would open the XCompanionBar config window and try to increase the max number of pets to display on the bar. If I clicked on the "maxnumpets" option, it would give me the error and not display the slider.
But I just found that if I click on the "maxnummounts" option, it will display the slider. Once I do this, if I then go and try to get the slider for the pets, it will work with no error.

Anyways, thanks for looking into this.

v3.28 up

v3.28 is up for WoW patch 3.3.

@BJRubino: I can't reproduce that error, try typing the following:
/xbar resetmod xcompanionbar

@Strobi: The pet XP bar comes from XPetStuffBar, although it is a separate frame. You'll see a + at the bottom below the list, click that, then you should see a menu. Options for the pet XP bar are under the top one, XP bar. Make sure it is checked.

Issues with XCompanion Bar

Hi,
I am having some issues with XCompanion bar. It will only show 10 companions total, even though I have more. When I try to increase the number via the config menu, I get the following error: .../XBar/XBar.lua line 2993: Usage: XBarConfigSliderMulti:SetValue(value)

Hi drdoom,
thanks for the answer, but what I was looking for is the bar for the experience of my pet. And there is none.

Go into the options by typing /xbar config
Click the + and select XPetStuffBar, then find the + down at the bottom and clidk it, you will see the options for the pet XP bar there.

Pet XP Bar

Hi,
I just found this addon and try to activate the "floating Pet XP Bar" for my hunter's Pets. But I have no idea how to! Maybe you can give me a hint?

Thank you!

Lol! And just as I got into learning how to create a Custom Bar (which, BTW, I love now). I did confirm that the last version was NOT saving configurations of what existing pet/mount combinations I wanted shown. However, I have created a custom bar for my alts that shows whatever pets and mounts they have of the ones I want shown. I'll check out this new version and get back with you about how well it's working.

EDIT: Yes, now the settings are being saved. CompanionBar is working the way it used to work. I'll probably find something to do with the CustomBar, but it's good to have the old model back. Great job. Keep it up!

Lemme test it out some more. I've been bounceing back and forth between the PTR and the live servers so much I can't be certain exactly what I'm seeing. I may just have not set up the bar after I upgraded. I'll go back to the main that was causing the problem and let you know what my results are.

Other than this little issue, I love XBar. I've been using it a LONG time.

Re: v3.26

v3.26 up, fixed some issues with the slide bars and XCompanionBar now lets you limit the # of shown pets, reducing lag. This fix was implemented so that the majority of users will not need any special configuration.

XCompanionBar limits the number of companions shown by simply ignoring them after a set number, so you will get the first (however many you specified) pets shown in your companion tab available to you. If you can't get the specific mounts you want to show without enabling a large number of companions (like the Zhevra), you should disable it and create a custom bar.
And now CompanionBar is completely useless. It doesn't seem to be saving, even on a per character basis, any of the companion settings. All it saves are the bar length settings. So hiding the unwanted companions again is a daily thing and even more of a hassle than making the previous version bar visible again. I'll look into creating a custom bar, but I have a sneaking suspicion that I'm just going to have to play with my mounts/pets the odd fashioned way. If the CompanionBar saved the configurations in some manner like it used to, that would be something.

Thank you for an excellent mod! Love it and can't live without it! Have one request though. My buff bar doesn't have the option to stack-ie, it's a really long bar and need it to stack sidebyside so that it is smaller in length or width; I have it vertical, so that it only occupies a small space horizontally but vertically it is really long and runs into my other bars. Anyway to fix this?
