 Description  « Hide
For the Snatch Searcher-

There is some items i whold like to set to buy out if they get under a preset %.

I dont what to set it to a gold ammount since some items will only go up in ammount of gold slowly, ie 10G this week, 11G the next 12G the week after and so on, so i whold like to set it to a % of the arvage price,

But i mostly run the auction house scan on live mode, and i dont have the time to use any other setting.

Isn't that the point of Resale Search? Where you set the min. discount for an item to a certain percentage?

I disagree that this is a resale feature. It's a feature similar to the Timeleft filter. Similar to that one, this could very well (and probably best) be implemented as a filter on percentage of market value.

The problem with resale is that it wants to resale everything (armour, cloth, potions, ...), but in this case I am focussing on specific items so resale does not apply

As crafter I want to regularly create a specific item so I have a Snatch searches for all the different mats. I want to buy these mats when they are cheap and have a short buying timeout. E.g. for making Imbued netherweave I'm Snatching netherweave cloth, netherweave bolts & arcane dust. I don't want to see any other products and I don't want to see these products with very high price levels.
In this context "cheap mats" is defined relative to regular price level (whch may fluctuate) but that level will be shared between the different mats

i did not think about calling it a cheap mats settings

that even better name for it,

what i use it for is for big price items i know will sell at X price, but i what to set it at a % so it will stay with the market price.

when a change is comming that will change how good a item is, (dream shards will be used in more enchs) i set my setting at 75%, so when some one poped one under that % i whold BO it in the next scan. then when it comes out, the price goes up and any one who posts under my 75% will be BO to resel at the new price.

a lot of people just find the price out of a item and just sell at that price intill they what to recheck, somtimes it may be a log time and you can make a TON of gold off them

Starts ASER-201
Redesigns Snatch UI, Removes "bag" scrollframe to increase size of snatch list.

Adds a new column PERCENT of market price.
Adds entry box and ability for snatch to suggest purchases by % of market price not just fixed price.

GUI will display green highlight with red % for items that are using this setting.
When % is used the "buy each" box displays what the current % settings of market price is.

when adjusting teh % setting the money frame will dynamically change, the displayed value is NOT saved as a fixed price. The "going market price * %" will always be used in evaluations for items using the %option

Slash commands have new additional options % or percent
examples
<link> 50%
<link> 50 %
<link> 50 percent
<link> 50 Percent

sweet, how soon will it be in the build?

I love to help test it

It's already in the Developer builds, there should be a new Preview build in a few days.

The current version (r4213) does not fit the the Auctionhouse Search tab properly.

r4216
Changes anchor point for the "snatch list" so it does not squash together when using the Auction frame embedded searchUI window.

We still overlap the "help"in AH window view but otherwise it looks ok.

richdwarf, If you dont mind delving into your addon folder you can add it now.

Interface\Addons\Auc-Advanced\Modules\Auc-Util-SearchUI

No major issues. Price model selection will be handled in ASER-223
