v10.0.3: rotating minimap does not rotate the icons on top of the map

Describe the problem

when rotating the mini-map, the icons that are added on the map (e.g. chests or rares added by HandyNotes) will not rotate with the map

What steps will reproduce the problem?

  1. install HandyNotes and HandyNotes Shadowlands
  2. make sure minimap is set to rotate in SexyMap options
  3. look at icons added on the minimap while rotating the map - they behave as if their orientation is anchored to the player arrow, not to the map.

What version of the addon are you using? (Stating 'latest' is not useful)

v10.0.3

Do you have an error log of what happened?

visual bug - no LUA error

update: i think i fixed it.. there is a SECOND option to rotate minimap... in the new Edit Mode.

The SexyMap minimap rotation checkbox should enable that option too... but it does not.

that has to be enabled manually too, and after a /reload command the minimap will rotate together with the icons.

and another update:
i tested the opposite set of options, with SexyMap set to not rotate the minimap and the option from WoW Edit mode set to rotate the minimap.

As expected... now it is only the icons that rotate but the minimap stays stationary.

This is an issue with HandyNotes, but I have informed the developer.
Leaving this open until a new version of HandyNotes is released.

even so, SexyMap should coordinate checkbox status with the Warcraft built-in one, to avoid confusion. Toggling either one should also affect the other.

As it is now, we have TWO different checkboxes that basically try to do the same thing: enable minimap rotation, but their logic state is independent of each other.

  • WoW built-in checkbox for minimap rotation
  • SexyMap checkbox for minimap rotation

No plans to start messing with Blizz settings that would persist if the user uninstalled this addon.

Closing this as a new version of HandyNotes is now out.
