Hi, I just found this addon and it for the most part solves what I've been looking for some time. I have one question and/or request depending on the answer.
Is there a way to keep the Loot Monitor items open for longer than 30 seconds? Or better yet, a way to keep them on screen until I chose to dismiss them? This is more for that running alts through LFR and seeing what drops other people get that they might not need.
I haven't built any such functionality into them, no.
You could manually edit the fade_own and fade_other values in the XLoot SavedVariables file to something higher than 30, that's about the closest you could get without any changes I think.
I was able to change the lua file to allow the slider to go up to 60. That worked for what I needed.
Hello, I really like your addon but the only thing i am missing is on xloot monitor frames, i want to see the ilvl of the loot directly on my screen without having to mouseover to each item. I believe it is possible to get that info with current api cuz there are other addons acquiring that info. I tried to modify it myself but not so great with lua :) Thank you in advance
How do I blacklist an item so I do not loot it but I am able to loot everything else until I remove the item from the blacklist? And if this feature is not available would it be possible to offer an update with this option in it or something very similar?
I too am wondering about this. I'm always a fan of autolooting everything but in some circumstances there are certain items that clog my inventory (white food, potions, other random items)
Hello. Can xloot handle personal loot drops (like in the LFR "raid") at the loot monitor, to disable this terrible loot screen at the top center of the screen?
xloot has been blocked causing problems wanting to do some action only permitted for blizzard ui, when I want to sign up for a Battleground dungeon. seriously? fix this.

I'll need more information in order to fix it. I don't touch anything related to queueing, and nothing even questionable should be being hooked if you're using default options.
I'm sorry you've had an issue.
Does this happen with only XLoot enabled? XLoot is, by dint of being at the end of the alphabet and thus load order, is often blamed for any Ace-using addon that taints things. It's possible that it is XLoot, but it is important to test with only it.
I haven't been able to use Xloot on any of the new "allied races", the bar pops up with the need/greed/pass buttons but when I click on them nothing happens, loot ends up running to the end of the timer and is awarded to those folks who were able to interface and pick need/greed properly. No .LUA errors or anything.

Firstly, sorry you're missing loot.
That's a really odd cause for an error. I have no idea how to test this, I haven't had an active WoW Account for a year.
Is this on 7.3.5 or 8.0?
And this only happens when you're playing one of the new races?
And this wasn't loot on a chest of some kind?
Did the rolls show up in (edit) /loot? This is a native WoW feature, not part of XLoot.
This happened to me now in a Wailing Caverns group. It was loot from a chest, the option popped up to need/greed/de, but it did nothing when I clicked either of them. Let me know what you need for troubleshooting; it doesn't seem my bugcatcher recorded an error.

That's because it's a blizzard bug. Your roll was counted, you can ask anyone else in the group next time it happens.
Check out /loot - the blizzard UI that uses the C_LootHistory API that XLoot uses. See the warning on the addon page:
There is a Blizzard issue when you are the opener of a chest in Group Loot mode, your rolls will not be recorded nor will the events XLoot use fire. From my experience, your roll is still counted. See this bug report: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/15508091093
This doesn't bother the default roll frames because they don't linger after you roll. They call the function to roll on the loot that XLoot Group does and then close themselves immediately.
I've just started to create a profile other than default with some custom settings. If I change profile to anything other than the one that loaded when I logged in I get the error below. I can switch back to the original profile without error. This occures even with a brand new saved variables file with just the profiles provided during initialisation.
Love your work.

Thanks for the report and I'm glad you enjoy the addon :)
This should be fixed in 8.0-2, which I'm not sure works entirely with 7.3
Actually, just tested on the PTR and it seems to be working, thumbs up :)
I moved one line below the other one, it was updating appearance before storing options. It should actually work fine for you right now if you change profiles then /rl, I think.
That's what I had been doing when I posted the original report.
I've been using the 8x version in 7.3.5 for half a day now and not run into any problems so I'm a happy camper. I can always switch back if something crops up before the pre-patch launches.
Thanks for keeping xloot alive! I finally transitioned to this from the original version that I'd been keeping alive for myself, and I'm trying to get the look and feel as close to the original as possible.
Any possibility of having a config setting for the padding between the border and the loot list? It's quite a bit more than I'd prefer... I like to have the border pretty tight in on the loot rows. Also might be nice to be able to set the thickness of the border itself.

Do you have a screenshot of what you're trying to accomplish?
Hmm, unfortunately I don't. I just tried loading the version I'd been using -- I think it's from 2012, with some tweaks I made to the main lua file in 2017 -- but the errors are preventing the loot window from showing.
Using the current version of the addon, basically trying to minimize the space between the loot window border and the loot items -- the highlighted area in the screenshot here.

In reply to Xuerian:

I don't understand why it keeps looting other stuff. I only want it to loot heavy junkbox.

I can wait, thank you so much for the quick fix.
