Research Buddy 2  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Version: 2.1.7
by: thifi [More]
Update 6 info: Please make sure you use at least version 2.1.4 from ResearchBuddy2 and version 4.3.3.1 from wykkyd_core_libraries!

I'd like to ask you to please use the Addon's Portal page to report bugs or request new features. It's much easier for me to track the requests and it's much easier for you to see whether anything is happening with your request or I'm waiting for your feedback about something.

Here is a direct link to the Portal but you can find a shortcut on the Add-on's page right below the Download button as well.

Suggestion

Hey there,

Just installed your add-on after CraftStore went by the wayside.. so far it looks nice and has a clean look overall. There's just one thing that bothers me and I wanted to suggest an alternative. I'm probably one of the few that ENJOYS the clean/minimal UI of ESO. I don't need or want big ugly bars all over my screen. I was wondering if there was any way to perhaps add an Icon or something to the chat window tab area instead of the RB bar? Mind you, that is how Craftstore had an icon and I just found the placement handy and simple. For now I gave it a keybinding to hide it when not in use, so that works, but just a suggestion. Also I was having the same issue as Migoda with the overlapping thing :/

The only thing that concerns me is this new option at the bank: "Store (Banker)".. not sure what this means. Is it the store? or is it the banker? I opened it and it looks like the bank but then it says buy/sell. I'm confused by its intention and didn't see anything about it on the add-on info page. This wasn't there before I installed the add-on, unless it is part of Wykkyd Core Libraries (I will dig in the add-on settings)?. If it is a part of Research Buddy2, I don't see an option to disable it. I don't like it, I don't know what it does, and it is first in my list of options at the bank which concerns me that I may use it on accident.

Otherwise, keep up the good work. Lots of potential here, can't wait to get to using it fully

Will implement this soon, stay tuned. In the meantime map Keys to functions so you don't have to use your mouse to open/close panels.

Cheers!
