Krowi’s World Map Buttons

This library was created to make it easier to add buttons to the top right corner of the world map.

Using this library requires you to know how to add buttons. This library is simply a tool to make it easier.

Old way of adding buttons to the world map:

local worldMapButton = WorldMapFrame:AddOverlayFrame(
    ADDON_NAME.."WorldMapOptionsButtonTemplate",
    "DROPDOWNTOGGLEBUTTON", "TOPRIGHT",
    WorldMapFrame:GetCanvasContainer(), "TOPRIGHT", -68, -2
    );

This has the drawback that all buttons are in a hard coded location. Gaps will occur when certain buttons are hidden.

New way of adding buttons to the world map:

local worldMapButton = LibStub("KrowiWorldMapButtons-1.0"):Add(ADDON_NAME.."WorldMapOptionsButtonTemplate", "DROPDOWNTOGGLEBUTTON");

This has the benefit that all buttons are ordered automatically, even if some buttons are hidden.
