Adding elements to existing UI elements

[Wukar]

Hi there,

after walking through the very basic addon tutorial, i come up with more questions than answers. I am familiar with Lua in a way from my studies. But i definetly lack the knowledge to interact with the ESO UI.

I want to extend inventory and bank windows with a crafting-profession filter as well as a editbox for a full-text search. Well, the events aren't the problem. Adding the elements to the proper control is. On top of it: is there a predefined editBox (doesn't look like that) ?

I tried to skip that problem with the usage of the library LibAddonMenu-1.0:

LAM:AddEditBox(ZO_PlayerInventoryBackpack, "bbs_search", "filter inventory", "custom tooltip", false, getFunc(), setFunc())

But the LibAddon itself complains about the optionsWindow variable which is set at the beginning to:

local optionsWindow = ZO_OptionsWindowSettingsScrollChild

Thanks for your time ;-)
