View Full Version : Odd problem with 4+ hotbars
<DIV>I usually use 6 hotbars at once with 3 of them assigned to keys (primary, secondary (ALT), tertiary (CTRL)).</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>The problem I have had for awhile is that upon logging in, the 4th bar will also adopt one of the assigned bars (so that it fights to be primary or usually tertiary). </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>If I close the 4th bar, the 5th bar assumes the role the 4th had, so I close it, then the 6th bar becomes that. Only after the 6th bar is closed does the original bar I assigned as primary, secondary, or tertiary, start acting normally.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I then can reopen bars 4 through 6 and they will sit peacefully there until I end the session and restart.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Anyone else use more then 3 bars and notice this issue?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I have two account (with multiple toons) and all toons act this way. Deleting the UI config and remaking it doesn't fix it.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV>
<P>when i had more than 3 bars and re-logged, the 4th bar showed up as you said, but did not take the functionality of the 3rd bar</P> <P>ie. it was just visually wrong, but the functionality remained the same as before</P> <P> </P> <P>is this what you are experiencing or is there a functionality problem as well ?</P>

<DIV>I run all my chars. with four open hotbars... as far as I can tell, I've never had a problem with that. Although I might not notice these days if I had, because I've taken to using the mouse. I'll keep an eye on it and see what happens.</DIV>

<DIV>You're talking about having two bars that both are labeled primary, right? and then swap around strangely? I've had this happen once or twice. IIRC, what fixed it was closing down to 3 bars, and then reopening (don't have to rearrange buttons, they are on server).</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV>
