What version of ItemVersion are you running?

2022.47.2

What is your issue?

While it is always good to have the option to set a char/class-specific profile, it would be nice if the profile selection would default to "Default" instead of "<char name>".

This would save us multi-alt players from having to adjust the profile selection 20 times ;)

I don't think that someone really prefers to have different tooltip modifier keys for their toons, or a short version tooltip for one class and a detailed version tooltip for another… And if someone wants, he still can set a specific profile.

(It wouldn't "complain" if the addon was about char/class/spec-specific things like eg spells, auras, action bars etc. But this is not the case here.)

Thanks for considering,

Can you provide any screenshots of what you describe?

No response

This entire options dialog comes from Ace.

I'm not sure if there is a way to configure for the default profile. But, I'll look into it.

Do you know of any other addons that do this, for reference?

Actually I think there are very few addons where per-char/spec/class profiles make sense. Raven would be a good example (though it also works fine with a shared profile, since it has other means to make icons visible only for specific classes), or Clicked, depending for what you use it, and similar things.

TomTom comes with two profiles, one for the settings, and one for the waypoints, which is good because for the waypoints it can be useful to have them per-char, whereas for the options it would be nonsense to use per-char profiles.

Thanks for implementing it! Also for the Command key addition from the other thread of course.

You just have to activate it in your Init.lua, line 10:

10c10
<   self.db = LibStub("AceDB-3.0"):New("ItemVersionDB", self:GetDefaultDB())
---
>   self.db = LibStub("AceDB-3.0"):New("ItemVersionDB", self:GetDefaultDB(), true)

Implemented in #42.

I agree with your reasoning on this: this addon doesn't really seem like one where per-character configuration will be common.
