FAQ Q: How do i access the configuration?
A: Right now, you can only access the configuration through the chat interface. Type /bt or /bt4 or /bar to open the config GUI. A (optional) minimap button or a fubar plugin are planned, though.
Q: Does it import Bartender3 settings?
A: No!
Q: Where are my keybindings? And how do i bind new keys?
A: BT3 Keybindings will not be ported over either, you have to use the new keyBound to re-bind your keys. You can access keyBound by typing /kb into your chatframe. Hover a button, press key â voila!
Q: CyCircled Support? I like my button skins? :(
A: No reason to cry! There is a sparkling new skinning addon/library out there! ButtonFacade is way easier to work with as a action-bar author, and its easier to write skins for it too! Alot of cyCircled Skins have already been ported to ButtonFacade, and more are on their way! See http://www.wowace.com/wiki/ButtonFacade for more details. After Installing ButtonFacade, simply access the BF configuration with /bf and configure the style of the Bartender4 Bars!

Been testing it for a bit now, and looks to be working well - complete with brand spankin' new buttonfacade support! One question though: where did my keybindings settings go?
I will test it once it's on branch. Just saying to keep up the good work.
Just a quick question, will BT4 have the option-settings LOD?
The options are generated on demand when accessed for the first time, but not in a seperate addon.

The old BT3 keybindings will not be converted, you have to use the new keyBound to bind your keys for now. Type /kb in game, hover over a button, press key -> voila! Also, read the new in-game FAQ :)
Thanks for a great addon, i'll check it out once I can get it off WAU! Just wondering whats the main difference between Buttonfacade and Cycircled? is it just ace2 v ace3, improved code, cooler skins or whats the deal? ;>
cyCircled is a pain to work with, you cannot really get it "right" when using it with advanced action button logic. ButtonFacade does not even try to do that, and just gives me full control to skin whatever i need, so its way easier to add support! :)
Rotation of Bars? Like Vertical Bars? Just change the amount of Rows. 1 Row = Horizontal, 12 Rows = Vertical, anything in between = A cube!
Thanks, working on that now!
Cool.
Yeah, was on the way back to post including the point on rotation of bars -- hehe.
Observation:
1) I think by default, Bars 7, 8, 9, and 10 are non-enabled. If you are not familar with stealth mode uses Bar 8, then you will wonder how to setup your actions. I figured it out, but for some, it might be useful to label these Bars, or put something in the FAQ. I was thinking, if you are a class that can shapeshift, stealth or stance switch, then attention would be highlighted for the user to configure these bars, if they have no actions added. Just a thought for making BT4 more intuitive.
Edit Update: When I made the above comment, it was before I dug deeper into the configuration option Re: State Configuration on each Bar. So my comment above is not too relevant, except for the possibly of an FAQ tip.
Easy to set up - took just a few minutes
The Keybinding thing is sweet! Easy to use and the output on the existing bindings for Bar 1 etc, was a nice touch.
I noticed the Stance Bar re-showed on reload, but I haven't checked to be sure since I logged to work on the garden.
1. As a warrior, if i mouse over my Bar 1 mainbar, not sure if this affects other classes but there is no indication that I'm highlighting the buttons or mousing over them, the blue highlight around the edge isn't there.
2. How do I disable showing keybinds on my Bar 1? its not showing on bar 6, yet thats keybound.
3. When I press or hold a keybind that is linked to a button on the bar, there is no highlight indicating that its what im currently about to do. I think this actually used to be in Bartender3, but I remember one day it just not working anymore, thought id bring it up for a possible fix in your new version.
Apologies if some of this your currently planning to implement, just giving my feedback and what ive noticed so far. As I said im a warrior, so my Bar 1 being slightly different due to it changing with stances could be why some people might not experience it either im not to sure but just letting you know. Thanks for the awesome addon.

You're right. Weird that its only happening to Warriors, will fix it.

They don't show for Bar6? Do they show in KeyBound mode (/kb) when you hover the buttons?
A option to hide the key bindings is planned, though.

I think thats the same bug as your #1 :)
[quote=OttoDeFe]
Confirmed - the Stance Bar doesn't stay hidden.
Reproduced, will fix!
Thanks for all your reports so far! :)
Edit:
All of the bugs are fixed! The Option for hiding the keybinding will be done tomorrow or so, no promises though.
My 6th and 7th bar keeps disappearing after logging. Not sure if it's because of relogging but possible after changing profile on another toon.
The micro-menu sometimes keeps swapping positions on relogging. Again, not sure if it's because of relogging but possible after changing profile on another toon.
Will do some more testing tomorrow.

Fair enough, as long as it CPU/mem friendly ;-)
Last question, if it comes to branch will it be a separate add-on (BT3 + BT4 for download) or will it replace BT3 (just BT4 for download).

Forum ModeratorJ/K ;P
I could use some info on how long it would take for you to implement the 'hide until hovered' setting...
Impressed so far.
Observations:
1) I assume rotation of bars is planned within the upcoming alignment feature?
2) Not sure the option to "hide tooltip in combat" is working.
