    Is there a way to turn the slidebar so it auto hides it self like it use to? it is really annoying having it stick out in my screen when im trying to click on something. i like when it would hide on the side until i moused over the yellow tab.

    That's the way mine still behaves, it auto hides itself until I mouseover. Did something change in the dev version you're using?

    Okay, I tried commenting and removing the line from the SlideMain.lua and it didn't work. Was this the right file?

    don't remove it just put -- in front of the line 371 it works for me.

    :EDIT: yes slidemain.lua is the correct file on line 371 just add -- in front of the line and it will comment it out so it will collapse correctly.

    commenting this out with the latest preview build (2876) doesnt do anything, the bar only fades but it doesnt hide anymore

    Did you do it after loading WoW or before starting teh game. Scripts are only read once at the start of your session and changes will not be seen unless you console reloadui or restart.

    I don't have a SlideBar folder because the preview version embeds it as a library in like 6 places. This is probably also why it didn't work for -Raz-; he probably changed it in only one copy of the library. Bleh.

    oh crummy I forgot out that... my copies aren't embedded.. :P

    edit: yeah this will need done for each addon that uses slidebar (btm, informant, enchantrix, advanced & swatter... it will be in each of the respective folders /libs/SlideBar)

    BeanCounter also has slidebar embedded. So his best bet is to download teh file. Then search the addons directory for all instances of SlideMain.lua and just copy paste over it.

    looking at the downloaded zip version from the preview page I don't see the slidebar lib embedded into the libs dir? just see Babylonian & Configator (although it should be embedded no?)

    Hrm, testlek, I its an optional dependency, but I don't believe I have set up any other way of using the external GUI or getting to the settings without slidebar. I may need to fix that :)

    So should us AC users wait for the next build or download the latest AA, extract the file (which one exactly now?) and paste it into all directories that contain it? ;-)

    Thx!

    you could prob just do what raz did and go through all the folders and comment out the line in each folder.

    or copy the file I linked above and just replace them...

    I and many others have been trying to figure out how to disable slidebar for a really long time now ><.
    Thankfully just from reading this post i've finally figured out how to go about doing this.
    I appreciate all the time that's been put into the development for this addon, i just really wish there was an option somewhere to disable slidebar all together.
    I'm sure that many others would agree with me, just my two cents. :)

    I agree with Slik. I love auctioneer. Love enchantrix. But I liked them without a button on my mini map and without this bar.

    Would love an option to not display that bar and to not display the button on my mini map. I want a menu let me type /auctioneer menu.
