Mods and their icons

[jarmund]

Simply put, I have roughly a three buttloads of mods installed, the most important of which, for this post, is the toolbar mod.

The toolbar mod is great because.... you already know why it's great, no need to go into that.

However, many mods still display as an icon in the top right, and it has gotten to the point where I can no longer see the rightmost HUD-info from KER.

The mods still showing a stock-panel icon:

• Science alert (but that's fine, as I want to see the animation when it has something to tell me)
  
• Distant Object Enhancement (despite also showing up in the mod-toolbar)
  
• ScanSat (this too is in the mod toolbar)
  
• Kerbal Engineer Redux
  
• Kerbal Alarm Clock
  
• HyperEdit
  

What I'm wondering is:

Why do some mods show up in both toolbars? Is this a failing on my behalf, or of the mod developer? Is there something I can do about it?

Moved to addons so addon devs will see it, as it's not really a gameplay question

It's on the mod developers end.

If the mod is displaying on both toolbars, that is probably not intended and if you bring it to their attention they will probably fix it up.

If the mod is displaying only on the stock toolbar even though the toolbar mod is installed, you can make a feature request of the mod to enable the toolbar mod, but as this is a feature request and not a bug, there is no guarantee anything will happen.

Also, some of those mods have an option to use Blizzys Toolbar instead of the stock one. I know HyperEdit, KAC, and DOE do, it can be accessed in those mods settings.

Also also, KER has an option to move the HUDs - click on the KER toolbar button, then on the Edit button next to I think HUD2. You should then be able to move the right-hand KER display around.

I can't speak for the others, but in ScienceAlert's case it should be one or the other. Are you saying it's visible in _both_ toolbars at once?

Only in the stock toolbar. But if it showed up in blizzy's too, that wouldn't be a problem as it can be easily disabled.

I did notice that Distant Object Enhancement has it in options, so now that one is fine too. I cannot see a similar option for Scansat which also shows up in both.

Ah, you had me worried there was some kind of bug. If you prefer to have ScienceAlert in blizzy's toolbar, you can enable it in options (right-click ScienceAlert button)->Additional options->"Use Blizzy toolbar". Enabling this will remove SA from the stock toolbar

...

KAC? Yes

DOE? Yes

HyperEdit? Are you really sure? I can't find anything that allows me to switch it from stock to toolbar.
