Can a bind & bindfile load up the monitored power stats window?


Recommended Posts

I hope I'm getting the terms right:

 

On all my toons I monitor a bunch of stats in a little pop up window. The new issue renamed or reordered a bunch of stats, so now all my power monitor windows are screwed up. 

 

Since I monitor the same stats on all my characters, is there a way to save those and bindload them up?

Yes. It's easy but "all manual" — no shortcuts. You have to call each line in the display with a separate command (and then dismiss each with a separate command as well). There is no "call this list of lines" function, and, although there's a screen function, there is no "close whole list" command, either.

 

This basic list should work well as a start. Edit the actual attribute names as desired, and add or subtract lines as you like:

/bind F8 "monitorattribute Endurance Consumption$$monitorattribute Recovery Rate$$monitorattribute Regeneration Rate$$monitorattribute Running Speed$$monitorattribute Flying Speed$$monitorattribute Jump

 

The caveats, besides the slow and clumsy call method — which does at least toggle the lines, meaning only one bind is needed — are that the list can get screwed up, meaning the bind will likely toggle between two subsets of your choices, and that there are bind (and macro) file line lengths and total character limits. So these very wordy commands eat up a lot of that space, with no short aliases.

 

If your display gets screwed up, as it did for all of us from some general Page 7 change, use right-click/stop all to clear the display, then use the bind to call it back correctly.

 

There's a comprehensive reference with all the Combat Attribute names in the Tech Guide, section D.2.
