    Version: 2.1.7
    by: thifi [More]
    Update 6 info: Please make sure you use at least version 2.1.4 from ResearchBuddy2 and version 4.3.3.1 from wykkyd_core_libraries!

    I'd like to ask you to please use the Addon's Portal page to report bugs or request new features. It's much easier for me to track the requests and it's much easier for you to see whether anything is happening with your request or I'm waiting for your feedback about something.

    Here is a direct link to the Portal but you can find a shortcut on the Add-on's page right below the Download button as well.

    Depends on Wykkyd Core Libraries: http://www.esoui.com/downloads/info7...Libraries.html

    Thank you for this add-on and the work you do to maintain it! Would it be difficult to add an icon for ornate and intricate?

    Thanks again!

    Can confirm that RB2 is 2.1.4 and wykkyd_core_libraries is 4.3.3.1 both form minion and from lua files.
    Just tested, it happens 100% of the time even with no other addons.

    Now this is strange, because i'm using the latest wkkyd_core_libraries (4.3.3.1) and I have no issues with any addon, including RB2.

    Please update all Wykkyd libraries and confirm the issue still persist. I just did a full update on all my addons and RB2 works fine. There are UI related glitches (like colors disappeared from the main bar), but so far i've seen nothing major.
