Question - which plugin is disabling ` and making it a tab between windows?

18 Sep 2016 by eqmule
Sunday is funday... so here is some fluff:
- Added a "Boss Mode" hotkey, alt+~, (alt+tilde) if u click that all your eq windows will be instantly hidden. It's a toggle.
the hotkey can be changed in the [MacroQuest] section, the value is called BossMode=
setting BossMode=0 disables it.
- You can now "cycle" eq windows now with the '~' key.... (also known as tilde)
its not obvious but you CAN change it by editing the macroquest.ini
in the [MacroQuest] section add a CycleNextWindow=somekey
Example: (and this is what it defaults to when this entry does not exist)
CycleNextWindow=shift+`
u can do alt+ and ctrl+ as well but thats it.
you cannot combine alt+shift+, i didnt want to make this to complex.
you CAN however drop the prefixes altogether and just specify it as
CycleNextWindow=b
that would make the lettere "b" on your keyboard cycle the windows... (not recommended unless u plan on never using the letter b for any other reason...)
Setting CycleNextWindow=0 will disable it completely.
 
It's fun trying to use that key in INIs now. I have had an issue as well.

Most Chardok esque mobs have a tilde instead of an apostrophe. Sounds like we're going to get a lot of rage with EoK about the key
 
you rock sir, any chance you know why my cast bar is missing as well? although now that I am trying to locate the file to disable bossmode I can't.....hrmmmm

IfAltDelimiter=~ is the only thing that makes sense for it to be it. in the macroquest ini. It's in the base Mq2 directory, i think it's called Release for most people. Just look for a file Called MacroQuest that is a config file and open it with notepad.

I don't know if that is it though, I am ingame and even though I am alt tabbed I still can't use tilde to do a Ctrl + F and I am not logging out to do it.
 
If you right click on the MQ icon in your taskbar (while it is running of course) one of the pop up options is to open the macroquest.ini file.

After editing you can log in. If you are already ingame, you can use the "/unload" command to unload MQ from that instance/window of EQ, then right click on the MQ tray icon and select "refresh injection" to get MQ reloaded with the new ini.
