Problem
Toetag1974 opened this issue · 22 comments
Just re-downloaded this add on today after having deleted it months ago because of the fact that after a kill, a huge brown block pops up and obscures the center of the screen directly over the player character. the block easily takes up 1/3 of the screen
Before attacking.
.After killing the mobs.
Hi @Toetag1974 - Thanks for reporting this! Can you let me know what version of Drift you are running? You can get the version by running /drift version, and the latest version is v1.0.21. I suspect this bug is related to an older version of the addon because I recently put in a fix for a related issue.
I downloaded it from WOWUP shortly before I put in this report, which lists it as v1.0.21.
Thanks for the information. I am not able to reproduce the issue on my end, but it's possible Drift is not compatible with some of the other addons you have installed. What are all the addons you have installed that modify the interface?
The add ons I have are as follows:
AdvancedInterfaceOptions, Altoholic, AskMrRobot, Auctionator, Bartender4, BattlePetBreedID, BetterVendorPrice, Breakables, BtWQuests(all of them), BuyEmAll, CollectMe, CovenantForge, CovenantMissionHelper, DataStore, DBM, Details, Elvui(already checked if it was this), GatherMate2, GSE, HandyNotes(all of them), HideTalkingHead, WyredsIcyVeinsStats, Leatrix(maps&plus), Masque, Masque Hex, MBB, MountCollector, Omen, OneClickEnchant, Pawn, PetTracker, Postal, RareScanner, Rematch, Routes, Simulationcraft, SinStats, ScrollingLootText, SoulAshTip, TellMeWhen, ToyBoxEnhanced, Train-All, VenturePlan, WorldQuestTab, WorldQuestTracker.
No problem. Hopefully you can find out the problem. I enjoyed using your add on since it was a lot easier and better than the alternatives.
@Toetag1974 Thank you for the list. I will investigate when I have some time.
Can you also check if the problem happens if you disable all addons except Drift? That will help determine if it's caused by an interaction between addons.
After disabling and re-enabling my add ons one by one, I have found that the add on that was causing the big block in the center of my screen was caused by the add on mountcollector. I have since removed it.
I have also been having this issue with Drift. Been going on for months now. I can click thru the brown block if need be, but since I initially turned the addon off and on again, all my bags are collapsed on top of one another when the addon is on and I can't move them back to where I originally positioned them when the addon wasn't giving me problems. Yes, my version is 1.0.21. I do not have the mountcollector addon the previous person did--we have very few addons in common.
Here are the two most common errors the addon throws at me. There are variations on these, but these are most frequent:

Please help me fix this. I want to be able to see all my bags open at the same time without my error sound going off every three seconds. It's driving me bonkers.
@halloaloe - Thanks for letting me know. I believe the two issues are unrelated.
For the brown block, I am not able to reproduce the issue, so it would help me to know more information. Can you disable all addons you have enabled except for Drift and see if the issue still occurs? This will help me determine if it's caused by Drift directly or for some other reason.
For the bag issue, I've done some investigation on this before. Can you go into the Drift options and disable Bags if you have it enabled? If it's not enabled, can you try enabling, clicking Okay, and then disabling, then clicking Okay again? I added code that triggers when Bags are disabled that should hopefully fix the issue you are seeing.
I disabled all addons except Drift, logged in. No brown box upon mouse over of anything (which is usually what happens), but upon Shift B to open all bags, I was immediately given this:

Bags still pile on top of each other. Will go into options momentarily.
Followed your instructions within Drift's options. Bags are now back to how I set them--thank you!
Got brown box back upon hitting "U" then changing to reputation tab. Disabled the few addons I had turned back on, then slowly re-enabled, only for the brown box to pop up upon hitting "I" then clicking on PvP tab (this became my consistent test).
Only addons I had turned on at the time: DBM, Drift, PetTracker and dependents, Reputation Bars, Soulshape Journal (highly doubt this is culprit, I've only had it a few days), TomCat's Tours, TomTom, Work Complete Notification, WowheadLooter, xanDurability, xanGoldMine, Z-Perl UnitFrames and dependents, Zoom. I also had Wholly enabled with the "U" box, but disabled with the "I" box.
Of these, then, I'm seeing overlap of DBM, Drift and PetTracker with Toetag's original comment.
Update: I whittled down the addons listed here, keeping Drift on throughout. The problem bottom-lined to Soulshape Journal and Drift not cooperating. If I turned off SSJ but kept Drift on, no problem; same with reverse. But if both were on--instant box. Drift was the only common denominator with all addon eliminations. Again, SSJ makes no sense as the problem as it joined my addon list on 1/6/22, but I was having the box problem Oct/Nov 2021 IIRC.
Thoughts?
Thank you for the investigation @halloaloe - I will download Soulshape Journal to look into why the conflict between these two addons is occurring. As for why the issue was occurring late last year, there is a chance it is related to an old version of Drift. I made some updates last November that may be related to the behavior you were seeing, although it would be difficult to confirm.
After re-enabling all my addons and testing on several characters, I can only conclude the problem is Drift. Whenever Drift is disabled, there's no brown box, just the LUA errors I initially posted in my first comment (and my error sound going off whenever I open my bags). I disabled bags within Drift, clicked Ok, and now my bags "work" with no error sound, but still box upon mousing over anything (minimap, bag icons, spells). Disabled Drift again, bags work, no errors. I don't know what else to do.
Interesting, thanks for the extra detail. I downloaded Soulshape Journal, and I am able to reproduce the issue. I have an idea of what is causing this, and I am working on a fix.
@halloaloe I updated the Drift code so the box no longer shows up. Can you download the attached zip file and test the update removes the box for you too? Inside the attached zip file is a Drift folder with the updated code. If you copy the Drift folder and replace the existing folder (most likely located in C:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft\_retail_\Interface\AddOns) with this updated one that will update the addon.
Apologies, I didn't notice this sooner. Used updated file. Enabled bags, did my checks: all good! No box, no errors, bags where I want them. Enabled SSJ; still no issues. I don't know what you changed, but THANK YOU. I can have my sanity back!
