    Popup of last bag when looting slows the interface way down

    Hi,

    It turns out that the latest release has a feature I don't like at all.

    Each time, after killing a mob, it pops up an item window of the last bag I have equiped.

    This results in two things:

    1) The GUI is having a big FPS drop to just around 10fps

    2) This popup will only go away when hovering the minimap and sometimes already when looting has been done.

    Is there any way to disable this little feature?

     

    EDIT: The more I play the more I figure out when it's happening. It also happens when I get damage from a mob which hasn't attacked me yet. I hope you can see why it's annoying ;)

    thnx

     That is the new durability scanner added in 1.73. It also causes a short little glitch in frame rate as you leave combat. It annoys me too and I am working on a fix right now. There will be a 1.731 tonight or tomorrow with the fix.

    There may also be some negative interaction with other tooltip addons, since getting durability requires the use of a tooltip.

     This brings me back to a previous request as i DO NOT need carbonite to check my durability

     

    please add some sort of modulation so i - the paying customer - can decide which features i would like to use and which i will not. (that way i can also get rid of the event log and combat stat thingie)

    You already have the option to toggle these features on and off.

    I thought the same thing and then realized how nice it is having it on the screen, since it does go down rather quickly. In any event, in 1.731 it does not do the end of combat durability update, unless an info window is showing it. It now takes .01 seconds to do the update, so you would not notice it anyway.
