WayBook changelog

1.27.0

WayBook runs on Retail now, and the options have moved onto the main window.

New

• WayBook works on Retail as well as Mists of Pandaria Classic. Both were tested before this release.
• The separate options window is gone. Its contents are now four tabs below the main window: List, Options, Sort/Auto-Tag and Display.
• The window can be resized by dragging its bottom-right corner, and it remembers the size along with the position.
• The Display tab shows a sample waypoint row that changes as you drag the size sliders, so you can judge them without switching away.
• Tag badges have a size slider of their own.
• Waypoints you add through WayBook carry their own map art: the WayBook logo on the world map, a gold arrow on the minimap. Waypoints made any other way keep your TomTom theme.
• WayBook has its own icon in the addon list.
• "Confirm deletions" can be turned off if you would rather the red minus just delete.
• An "Open Key Bindings" button on the Options tab takes you straight to WayBook's bindings.

Improved

• Adding a waypoint switches back to the List tab, so you always see the row you just created.
• "Keep waypoints on arrival" is on by default.
• The collapse bar is a click switch now. It used to expand when the mouse passed over it.
• "Restore window" puts the window back at its original size as well as its original place.

Fixed

• Throwaway waypoints, the kind another addon creates for a tracked objective and then removes, no longer appear in the list.
• A quest name in an NPC's tooltip is no longer mistaken for that NPC's reputation faction.
• Targeting another player and saving a waypoint no longer tags it with their guild or class.

Removed

• The automatic "Quest" tag. WayBook holds the places you chose to keep, and live quest tracking belongs to the game's own quest log. Tagging a waypoint "Quest" by hand still shows the book icon.

1.26.27

• The download is back to its normal size. Releases from 1.26.20 onward accidentally bundled 2.5MB of screenshots meant for the project page.

1.26.26

• There is now a user guide: https://hrudrak-waybook.github.io/WayBook/
• Auto-tagging is a setting. "Auto-tag NPCs" in Options turns it off entirely, and three checkboxes under it pick which tags you want: Rare/Elite, Rep faction, and Profession.
• A newly added waypoint flashes its row three times, so you can see where in the list it landed.
• A button beside the Edit window's Coordinates field stamps in your current position, which fixes any waypoint you saved while standing a long way from what you had targeted.
• The Options window is three columns wide, so nothing sits far below the fold.

1.26.20

Everything since 1.26.5.

New

• Group and sort controls now sit on the main window, under the search box, with an arrow button to flip the sort direction.
• Coordinates can be edited in the Edit window, and the waypoint moves to match.
• Waypoints created from a selected target are tagged automatically with Rare, Elite, the NPC's reputation faction, and its role such as Flight Master or Quartermaster.
• The Edit window has a Close button.
• Tab moves between the Edit window's fields, and Shift-Tab moves back.

Improved

• Adding a waypoint from a target confirms it in chat and scrolls the list to the new row.
• WayBook is much quieter, with seven routine chat messages removed.
• The Tags column greys out while grouping by tag, the way the Zone column already did.

Fixed

• The tag dropdown closes when you click away from it.
• Hovering the tag picker or a confirmation box no longer collapses the window to the text bar mid-click.
• Collapsing to the text bar leaves the Options, Export, Share and Edit windows open, since only closing the main window should close them.
• The Edit window's layout no longer overlaps itself when a waypoint has several tags.

1.26.5

• American spellings throughout.

1.26.4

• The version number and license now show at the bottom of the Options window.

1.26.3

• Questie's tracker no longer shows through the WayBook window.

1.26.2

• Every WayBook window is now fully opaque, so the game world no longer shows through.

1.26.1

• Fixed the new collapse bar shrinking the window while the mouse was still inside it.

1.26.0

• New optional "Auto-collapse to text bar", which shrinks WayBook to a small draggable bar shortly after your mouse leaves it, and restores the window when you hover the bar. Off by default.

1.25.1

• Waypoints that Questie creates for a tracked objective now get the "Quest" tag automatically.
• The tag picker no longer accumulates tags you have stopped using.
• Clicking a waypoint on another continent now says so instead of claiming the arrow was set.

1.25.0

• Any waypoint tagged "Quest" shows a book icon at the start of its row.

1.24.6

• The arrow no longer jumps to the next-nearest waypoint when the current one clears.

1.24.4

• Added a setting to stop the arrow being reassigned when a waypoint clears.

1.24.3

• Fixed "Keep waypoints on arrival" also keeping Questie's quest waypoints alive.

1.24.2

• Tightened the Edit window's spacing so a waypoint with no tags no longer leaves a large gap.

1.24.1

• Tags in the Edit window now wrap as pill chips and the window grows to fit however many there are.
• Closing the main window closes the Options, Export, Share and Edit windows with it.

1.24.0

• Right-click now opens a single Edit window covering the label, note and tags together, replacing the old alt-click and ctrl-click.
• Tags are picked from a dropdown and removed by clicking their chip.

1.23.0

• "Add Target" became "Add Waypoint" and now works with nothing selected, saving your position and opening it for renaming.

1.22.5

• "Keep waypoints on arrival" now applies to waypoints you already had, not just new ones.

1.22.4

• Added an optional colorblind-friendly color scheme using the Okabe-Ito palette.
• Swapped the Zone and Tags entries in "Show in the list", and simplified the Options headings.

1.22.3

• Options is now split into labeled sections rather than one long list.

1.22.2

• Tag badges gained rounded corners and tighter padding.

1.22.1

• Grouping by tag now lists a waypoint under a header for every tag it has, not just the first one alphabetically.
• Tag badges are hidden while grouping by tag, where they only repeated the header.
• Fixed the Options window's right-hand column overlapping the left.

1.22.0

• Tags replaced the single category: define a tag once, reuse it anywhere, and give a waypoint as many as you want.
• Tags show as small badges under each row instead of taking up a text column.

1.21.0

• First version of per-waypoint categories, with a three-way "Group by" replacing the old group-by-zone checkbox.

1.20.1

• "Send to Chat" now inserts the /way command itself rather than a sentence describing it.

1.20.0

• Shift-click a waypoint to open a Share window with a copyable /way line and a Send to Chat button.

1.19.2

• Removed a misleading hint from the Export window. Export honoring your search is intended.

1.19.1

• Fixed the Export window drawing behind the Options window that opens it.

1.19.0

• New "Export Waypoints" button in Options, producing a selectable text dump of every waypoint as /way lines with notes as comments.

1.18.0

• Label is now the only column shown by default.
• Distance moved into its own right-aligned column so the readings line up.

1.17.0

• New Distance column and a nearest-first sort, both updating live as you move.

1.16.0

• New search box, filtering as you type across labels, zones and notes.

1.15.0

• Grouping by zone now unticks and greys out the Zone column, restoring it when you turn grouping off.

1.14.1

• Key bindings moved out of Bindings.xml and into the addon itself.

1.14.0

• Delete a waypoint with the red minus button, with a confirmation first.
• Right-click opens notes, and the button tooltips show your current key bindings.
