Show / Hide Helm or Cloak Macro
Post Reply

I'm looking for a macro to hide the helm/cloak if it's being shown and another to show the helm/cloak if it's not.
Note: I've already seen the toggle macro
/run ShowHelm(not ShowingHelm())
I'm not looking for a toggle.
I want the "show" macro to show the helm if it's hidden and do nothing when the helm/cloak is already being shown and vise versa the "hide" macro should hide the helm/cloak if it's being shown and do nothing when it's already being hidden.
Anyone have any ideas?

Try these:
/run if(ShowingHelm()) then ShowHelm(0) else ShowHelm(1) end
/run if(ShowingCloak()) then ShowCloak(0) else ShowCloak(1) end
They work for me; I have them both keybound to buttons on my right bar.

Nope, still only a toggle for on and off. Just a longer version of the one I already posted, but thanks for trying.
Edit: Thanks to your suggestion I was able to tweak your code and found a working variant:
Helm On:
/run if(not ShowingHelm(1)) then ShowHelm(1) end
Helm Off:
/run if(ShowingHelm(1)) then ShowHelm(0) end
Substitute Cloak for Helm to make the cloak macros!

Show:
/run ShowHelm(true)
Hide:
/run ShowHelm(false)
Don't use 1/0. Though these work for some API calls, this is not the common Lua designation. In Lua, 0 is
true
since it's a valid number value. It only works to hide the helm because this particular API was improperly implemented, and down the road these edge-case boolean situations might get "fixed". Use true/false and you can be sure it'll always work.

None of these worked. The option used to be under Interface on Game Menu. What was it removed?

This is a very old thread, but to answer your question, the options to hide cloaks and helms has been removed. You have to visit a transmogrifier, but hiding an eligible piece of gear is free of charge.
