Description
-- General Information --

This is a common shortcut panel with some default shortcuts to the game.
Most shortcurts are macros that you'll already have out there, but this panel is special!... it has icons instead of text.

The icons are standard vanguard icons so there is no need of extra textures -less memory usage-.

The shortcuts it provides are:
Group Buttons: Invite, Kick, Leave, Disband
Target Buttons: Consent, Follow
Icons:
The large tombstone image: Targets your nearest corpse and loots everything in it.
The small tombstone image: Targets the nearest PC corpse and drags it.
The rope image: Performs /rope to target PC
The Vault image: Target next corpse and loots all.
The tent image: Camps (logsout) to character sheet.
The Money image: Trades with your defensive target.
The Map image: Toggles (on/off) minimap
The moustach (man) image: Shows an emote window.

It has also a link to your ground mount, flying mount and a shortctut to recall spell and torch.

The emotes window is displayed at top_left of this panel and has several tabs with emotes.

Installation instructions:
If you use Default UI, just unzip de attached file to your Vanguard/VGUIAssets/Shells folder
Edit the Vanguard/bin/vgclient.ini file and where it says ShellName="Default" change it to ShellName=TarodShortCutPanel

If you use anyother UI, unzip the attached file to any temporary location in your HD, then copy the Panels folder to your Shell folder and add this entry at the bottom of the index.xml file, just before </XML>
Code:
<!-- Tarod's Shortcut Panel -->
    <GameplayWindows directory="Panels/TarodShortcut">
        <Window filename="TarodShortCutPanel.xml"/>
    </GameplayWindows>
The bottom of the index.xml file should read:
Code:
<!-- Tarod's Shortcut Panel -->
    <GameplayWindows directory="Panels/TarodShortcut">
        <Window filename="TarodShortCutPanel.xml"/>
    </GameplayWindows>
</XML>
To setup the window at your prefered location, enter Layout Mode and drag it to it's desired location.

If you want to place the emotes window at any other place around the main panel, edit the TarodShortCutPanel.xml file, locate the following code (arround line 289):
Code:
            <SetRelationalPos relationTo="SIBLING">
                <Edge>TOP_RIGHT</Edge>
                <Offset>
                    <Point x="0" y="-12"/>
                </Offset>
                <SiblingName>Shortcut Panel</SiblingName>
            </SetRelationalPos>
And change it to your desired position. For example, to have it TOP_LEFT you should have the following code instead:
Code:
            <SetRelationalPos relationTo="SIBLING">
                <Edge>TOP_LEFT</Edge>
                <Offset>
                    <Point x="-316" y="-12"/>
                </Offset>
                <SiblingName>Shortcut Panel</SiblingName>
            </SetRelationalPos>
Play with <Edge> and <Offset> to place it at any other place...

English is not my native language, so I've grouped emotes by meaning / action_type. I may have incurred in some mistakes. Any suggestion will be welcomed.

For mod developers:

Feel free to include this shortcut window with your MOD as soon as you mention the original author.

In order to make the MAP button work, you will need to edit the file TarodShortCutPanel.xml locate the line

Code:
<Command>/togglewindow MiniMap</Command>
and change "MiniMap" to whatever your current UI names the minimap window, for example, in DroxUI the minimap file is VGUIMiniMap.xml and the window is named "MiniMap"

Code:
<VGUIWindow name="MiniMap" controlContainer="true">
In the default UI, it is also named MiniMap.

Check your UI information / notes for further instrucctions.
