An addon for World of Warcraft that enables per-specialization key binding support. After being set, the current key binding layout will automatically change whenever the active specialization is changed. This includes situations when the active specialization is automatically changed by the game (i.e when entering arenas).
This addon is a continuation of Specialization Specific Keybinds, originally authored by Matthias Y, who has since archived the project.
How to Use
- Setting Keybinds: Using the in-game talent window, activate the specialization you want to set key bindings for. Set your binds in-game.
- Loading Keybinds: Using the in-game talent window, activate the desired specialization. Your spec-specific key binds are automatically loaded.
A message similar to the one below will be printed whenever key bindings change:
Compatibility & Limitations
All key bindings belonging to the standard blizzard interface and those showing up in the standard key binding menu (Esc -> Key Bindings) are supported.
Action Bar Mods (ElvUI, Bartender)
The official Blizzard UI offers 8 customizable action bars. Most action bar mods re-use these 8 bars and add a few extra of their own. These mods will have to properly register their own bars with the game or SpecKeybinds won't know they exist.
FAQ
Q: What about the 'Character Specific Key Bindings' toggle in the Key Bindings menu?
A: The addon will save the current active key bindings as character bindings. This means that this toggle will be implicitly set.
Q: Why are (some) of my action bar key bindings not properly getting tracked?
A: See the limitations. For mods like ElvUI use the default blizzard key binding menu (Esc -> Key Bindings) to set your bindings. Avoid using 'Quick Binding Mode' if you don't know what you are doing.
Q: Can you add support for <AddonName>?
A: SpecKeybinds uses the default game functionality to set and retrieve key bindings. Addons that also make use of this mechanism will be supported by default. No special support will be added for any action bar addons, to avoid dependency creep, and to ensure Spec Keybinds remains compatible with future versions of WoW, as best it can.
