Blizz coded the currency tab to work like a bag, that's why the Honor and Arena points have icons, they are like badges, etc in that respect but in my estimation, they won't become attainable like badges.

I do not know what you are doing but please delete the entire folder and go load up the latest Currency. You will find that it requires the following according to the includes:

Finally, and the only important part the pkgmeta:

libs/LibDataBroker-1.1: svn://svn.wowace.com/wow/big-wigs/mainline/trunk/Libs/LibDataBroker-1.1

All right, I added too many Ace3 things in a fit of pique when they started sucking in more of each other than I thought necessary. I seem to have forgotten to remove them from the pkgmeta file when I finally slimmed it down to the basics. I will remove AceConsole, AceEvent, AceHook and AceLocale from it.

lib/LibDataBroker-1.1: git://github.com/tekkub/libdatabroker-1-1.git

Might be better for .pkgmeta.

Have you downloaded Broker_Currency v3.00.02.04 beta release off of Curse.com to see? Those are included under LibDataBroker. The pull went bad. Pulling BigWigs pulls *ALL* the libraries it has in with it. That is how Curse is doing it.

One thing I really liked with MoneyFu was the possibility to see how much money I earned/lost within the actual session. Would it be possible to add this to Broker_Currency as well?

PS: I hope it isn't in already, and I just oversaw it... Oo

arena points

   button.icon:SetTexture([[Interface\PVPFrame\PVP-ArenaPoints-Icon]]);

honor points can use either factions icon so

local factionGroup = UnitFactionGroup("player");
if ( factionGroup ) then
  button.icon:SetTexture([[Interface\TargetingFrame\UI-PVP-]]..factionGroup);
  button.icon:SetTexCoord( 0.03125, 0.59375, 0.03125, 0.59375 );
end

The icon is inline with a string. unless there is a way to pass TexCoords I can not use it. So for instance "\124T" .. arenaTexture .. ":32:32:2:0\124t". I will switch to the arena texture though. Thanks!

Now that it is updated I get this error:

There are these icons:
* Interface\PVPFrame\PVP-Currency-Alliance
* Interface\PVPFrame\PVP-Currency-Horde
both are 32x32 and ready to be used in strings.

You should only get it the first time. A simple reload will fix it as it's trying to format a string from the saved variables but they don't exist yet.

Suggestion: In the config dialog, can you lower the icon size? They overlap on my screen. Preferably around 16, but 24 might prevent the overlap.
