_________________________________________________________________________________

You have everything.

The most costumes. The most hats. The most body markings. The most mounts. The most pets. Do you even remember what pets you have? No, because you get to around the D's and your eyes go crosswards.

Which frankly makes it a pain in your Molag Bals to keep track of it all. You have over 30 rows of hats, let alone anything else under Collectibles. Sometimes, you just wanna see your one favorite hat first (not limited to 1), instead of digging through all the fluff. I mean, who wouldn't?

If only you had this add-on.

"IsJusta Favorite Collectibles" gives you added value to your Collections menu, allowing you to "favorite" anything from Appearances and the various subcategories, to Housing, to Furnishing, to Mounts... you get the idea. Just one right-click, choose "Add Favorite," and your item is moved to the top of the list or, in select categories, into a "Favorites" subcategory, where all your preferred swag is listed for your convenience.

But wait! "Does this work with my companion? Mirri has her own needs, if you get what I'm sayin'."

It DOES! Your favorites carry over to your companion's Collectibles menu as well! Quick, easy and effective.

You thought you had everything. Now get it all with this one addon, and focus on your swag that you actually like.

Goodbye, clutter. Hello, your favorite hat.

The selectable categories to add the "Favorites" functionality to are:
- Appearance
  - favorites are set to the top of each subcategory
- Housing
  - favorites are added to a new subcategory, "Favorites"
- Furnishing -- May remove.
  - favorites are set to the top of each subcategory
- Mementos
  - favorites are set to the top of the list
- Mounts
  - favorites are added to a new subcategory, "Favorites"
- Non-combat pets
  - favorites are added to a new subcategory, "Favorites"

This addon uses the original UI. No added menus or boxes to clutter your screen.

Thank you @Turgenev for this awesome idea, and great write-up.

same.

Just have one tiny request still: is it possible to get rif of the "welcome" message? Too much addons telling me their version when i loggin/reloadui.

edit: oh, i have some more thouhts:

Have to make some more testings, but it seems, that it doesnt get refreshed in Appearance-Category. You add a hair style to favorites, but you dont see it until you made a reloadui. Visually, it just happens nothing before the reload.
I also deleted the SV to make sure it doesnt get a twist (before the reloadui thing came into my mind lol), but I had a reset there anyway. It seems it uses now the EU-Header, but all previously marked ones have been in the Default-Header, so no big deal
For the mounts, i could even use a 2nd or 3rd favorite-list (renamable)
- real favorites
- apex
- radiant apex
I always forget the names and dont know which ones are which and have them now mixed together in the "favorites", yet i dont even like some of them (rng can be cruel)

Warning: Spoiler

edit2: in fact, i had another look. There is the crown-symbol on bought mounts in the top right corner, which appears when you mousover. If this could be made permanent and indicating the type by different colors, it would be great. Not sure if i can explain it properly in english, so i made a quick picture, which might be better.

It doesnt need to make it automatically, we could add it e.g. with 2 additional submenus in the right-click-option like "add to apex". Not sure if everybody would like this, but i think who has tons of mounts, propably also has a couple apex and there is no way to figure out which are the ones, other than remembering the names or thumnail icons.
And another thought... next event we get the house. We will "build" it somehow out of the flying stone-thing pet, which then gets removed from the pets until we combine the 3 fragments again.
Just a note if the addon can handle it, when it is assigned as a favorite or if it gets confused after removing the pet.
Cause usually pets never get removed after we collected them, so i thought it's worth to mention.
And a last thing (promise ) is kinda unique/personal question:
Zos seems to fill up ALL rows with empty containers at the end? Like in this screenshot there is one empty container in "collected" and two in "not collected", just to fill up to 3 each row/line.
Is there a quick and easy way to get rid of these? Its more or less a self-made problem, but i extend the whole page as it seems crazy to have so much space on the screen, and fill huge lists with only 3 each line, when it could be easily 5, 7 or more. So i inserted this lines in an own addon and it kinda works nice, but ZOS still fills up to the old value (seems forced) so it "would" fit, if it is 3 only.
So we have a dynamic filled list, where ZOS adds empty containers to fit 3 only
Warning: Spoiler
Screenshots are made by all addons switched off, to see if it's really a vanilla bug/annoyance/feature.

Just extended the toplevel window once at start, works fine except the addional empty lines/rows:
Lua Code:

ZO_CollectionsBook_TopLevel:SetWidth(1300)
ZO_DLCBook_Keyboard:SetWidth(1300)
ZO_HousingBook_Keyboard:SetWidth(1300)
ZO_HousingBook_KeyboardNavigationList:SetWidth(450)
ZO_OutfitStylesBook_Keyboard_TopLevel:SetWidth(1300)
ZO_OutfitStylesPanelTopLevel_Keyboard:SetWidth(940)
ZO_ItemSetsBook_Keyboard_TopLevel:SetWidth(1300)

Well, looking at that, "Votan's Collectible Most Recently Used" works for the most recently used. I have not looked into "Votan's Collectible Most Recently Used", but the screen shot makes it look as tho the sub categories are gone.

This lets you set any number of collectibles as a favorite.
First, you select the categories you want to use the feature for in the settings.
Most of the selectable category types, move the favorites to the top of the list under a "Favorites" header.
For housing, also adds a right-click menu to travel too (requested feature for keyboard mode)
mounts and non combat pets, adds a "Favorites" subcategory where favorites are added too.

This addon also works in both keyboard and gamepad mode.
This addon began as IsJusta Favorite Mounts. It was requested by a friend whom has over 200 mounts.

What version is that. Hide Your Helm should no longer have a category above it.
If you are up-to-date, then this must be some sort of bug I'll need to look into.
In the mean time, a UI reload may reset it, since that forces the list to be rebuilt.

PS

Thank you. I am glad that you are enjoying it and that it has been so helpful.

It's not an important thing, at all. I was just fiddling with the .lua to see if I could manage to put the first one with the bottom one. Even if it removed the hide your helm collectible from the top, in which case I'd just add it to favorites too. I didn't have the time and the will to actually learn how to mess with ESO's addons yet, so I wondered if you knew how to do it. Regardless, it's more about OCD than any practicality.

IsJustaGhost Forum posts: 23 File comments: 129 Uploads: 12	The goals I have for my addons are: compatible in both Keyboard and Gamepad mode. Except for gamepad mode exclusive addons that are made to enhance gamepad mode where it falls short of keyboard mode. integrate with the game's UI. optional features. Wherever I can, I prefer to make features optional instead of forced. The reason I started making addons was because I play in gamepad mode, and there is very limited addons for gamepad mode. I'm also learning as I go. This addon does not actually add any UI elements to the game. It adds some data to the collectibles used for sorting, changes the list building function to make use of this data when needed. This is why it looks and functions how it does in the base game, with the added favorites feature.

In what list, and what all to sort?
If you're wanting to sort a Favorites subcategory, for keyboard mode, alphabetically you can uncheck "Keyboard Sort" in settings.

GREAT IDEA! And great execution too. I like how it doesn't add new menus or interface, how it blends with the game's own menus.

This is meant to be, in a way. I have Hide your helm forced to be sorted to top. It was the easiest way to keep it out of being alphebetically sorted in the normal list. I can look into force changing, or hiding, it's category name. That all depends on how it will effect the sort.

This may be something I will look into in the future. But, since it deals with protected functions, it may be soemthing that just is how it is.

Yeah, thats what i thought. I never really understood that "secure" thing, but for sure its better to leave as it is. Would be just a tiny visual change, but could break things in future or in special cases and its not worth that. I also had the idea of giving it another color, like a brighter yellow or light green to make it more noteable on the first view... but on the other side this would break the perfect fit-into-original-ui thing, i guess. So im kinda two sided sword on this and left it out

Originally Posted by IsJustaGhost

great, the addon made this list worth to use compared to without. I was always faster at clicking at the houses on the map than finding it in that list. That might be changed now and is very welcomed. The click-porting will make it even more comfortable

Thank you so much! It's also really well tought, as it removes the item from the long-pages-list when it places them on top.

Thank you for the comment. I am glad it is working out for you.

One of my goals is to keep it as original as I can. With this one, it does use the original ui. I have not rewrote any of that. I just did a few modifications.
The other goal is to make it work for both gamepad mode and keyboard.

I think there are other addon which make this available on the vanilla list, but i never found one. Or it was too huge for just that function to activate it always.

That is an idea I can look into. I've already "broke" into the original list code to add the ability to right click on items in the list so you can add/remove as favorites.

Currently, I am working on the rebuild of 2 of my other addons, IsJusta Writ helper and IsJusta Easy alchemy. Those 2 are quite a large undertaking. When I feal comfortable with those, or need a break, I'll look into adding a quick port option.

Cheers.
