Minimap Wheel Zoom

Ok addon but on logon my minimap defaults to max zoom out and returns to whatever it was last time if I scroll up or down. This has to be done every time.

Without this installed the client keeps the last zoom position properly.

Any way to fix this?

Nice add.
One thing though. The scaling of the minimap spams the DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME with "Minimap scale set to ..." messages

From looking at the code for the ChatFilter addon I found that if you add

function DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage(message, r, g, b)
if (string.sub(message, 0, 13) == "Minimap scale") then
return;
end
DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage(message, r, g, b);
end;

to the lua file, it blocks the Minimap scale messages.

Looking at it, it logically should result in an infinite loop due to recursion (the function calling itself) but it I think recursion is probably disabled.

The problem with this is that it could cause any other mod that overrides the DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage to not work as expected.

Since I use ChatFilter, I instead added the

if (string.sub(message, 0, 13) == "Minimap scale") then
return;
end

to the start of ChatFilter's DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage function.

This code basicly says that if a message starts with "Minimap scale" to not display it. This doesn't interfere with player chat since all player messages start with the players name.

Just a quick question, when you use this addon, will you still be able to "ping" the minimap?

I created this feature in MoveableMinimap, but had to move the "ping" feature to the overlay too, so just courious...

Nice job! Simple but useful. I checked your code ... nice trick ;).

Nice job. Clean and simple. I like it.

nice. i wish somehting similar could be added to scroll the chat window with the mouse wheel

I tried to create something like that, but it's not that simple :(.
