What's new

TabBack 1.1.0

More ways for WoW to call you back, and a couple of fixes.

  • New: Ready Check. On Retail, MoP, Titan, TBC Anniversary and Classic Era the game doesn't flash the taskbar for ready checks, so TabBack does now (on by default). Forever already flashes for ready checks, so the option is hidden there.
  • New: Loading Screen Done (off by default): flashes when a loading screen ends, so you can alt-tab through logins, continent changes and instance entrances. Not after /reload.
  • New: Follow Ended (off by default): flashes when you stop following another player.
  • New: Idle Warning After slider (10-25 minutes, 20 by default) for the Idle Logout Warning.
  • New: Say Why in Chat (off by default): one short line per alert, such as "TabBack: Flight landed."
  • Three more sounds: Ready Check, Boss Emote and Boss Whisper.
  • Fixed: accepting a trade request no longer alerts twice, and a trade you start by dragging an item onto a player doesn't alert.
  • Fixed: getting hit while eating or drinking no longer counts as "done".
  • Polish: the settings page is split into "When a Wait Is Over" and "When Something Needs You", and the Addon Compartment tooltip shows your sound mode.
  • Your settings are kept.
