158 <h2>Version History</h2> 158 <h2>Version History</h2>
159 <p>Version 0.31:</p>
160 <ul>
161 <li>Fixed a bug where action IDs &gt; 120 were being configured and allocated
162 in certain cases</li>
163 <li>Fixed a bug where hidden paging controls were reappearing when switching
164 pages</li>
165 <li>Fixed a script error that was popping up in certain conditions when starting
166 keybinding mode, and causing some buttons not to be bindable</li>
167 <li>Applied a fix that will (hopefully?) eliminate errors saying ACTIONBAR_UPDATE_STATE
168 was not registered (be on the lookout for recurrences of that one). Hopefully
169 this fix will eliminate several other intermittent errors that I think are
170 part of the same cause.</li>
171 <li>Added new options for controlling the opacity of buttons (which should now
172 actually work). Previous opacity settings (if any) will be lost and will need
173 to be re-applied after updating. There is also now a toggle to hide (rather
174 than alpha-zero) empty buttons, at the expense of not being able to drag actions
175 onto them during combat.</li>
176 <li>Action IDs now appear/disappear automatically when bars are unlocked. There
177 is no longer a menu item to show/hide them.</li>
178 <li>Changed the default startup bar configuration to only be the paged main
179 bar. This allows a default startup to create new bars without having to delete
180 some first. Will probably simplify even further in a future patch. Note this
181 doesn't fix the action-rearrangement setup headaches with warriors, druids,
182 and rogues.</li>
