Want to hide my keybind text, but show range indicator if there is one.

[Terahertz]

I've got an addon named HotKeyHider which is basically a script that runs to hide my keybind and macro text permanently. But the problem is that it also hides the range indicator (by default a dot, but gets replaced when you set a keybind for it) and it's sometimes difficult to determine my range.

Now mind you, I have 0 experience with lua, I'm just posting the script to see if anybody can do anything with it so that it shows the range indicator, or a new script.

  -- function start

local format = string.format;
local match = string.match;
local upper = strupper;
local _G = getfenv(0);

RegisterStateDriver(ShapeshiftBarFrame, "visibility", "hide") -- Hide the shapeshift bar
local f = {"ActionButton%d", "MultiBarBottomLeftButton%d", "MultiBarBottomRightButton%d", "MultiBarRightButton%d",
			"MultiBarLeftButton%d", "BonusActionButton%d"}
do
	for k, v in pairs(f) do
		for i = 1, 12 do
			local str = format(v, i);
			_G[str.."HotKey"].Show = function() end;
			_G[str.."Name"].Show = function() end;
			_G[str.."Name"]:Hide();
		end
	end
end

Any help would be appreciated ^^

This doesn't exactly answer your question for fixing this addon, but if you use Bartender you can disable keybind/macro display on any or all of your bars, but the range still works (although it reds out the whole button instead of the dot).

function ActionButton_UpdateHotkeys (self, actionButtonType)
	local id;
	if ( not actionButtonType ) then
		actionButtonType = "ACTIONBUTTON";
		id = self:GetID();
	else
		if ( actionButtonType == "MULTICASTACTIONBUTTON" ) then
			id = self.buttonIndex;
		else
			id = self:GetID();
		end
	end 
	local hotkey = _G[self:GetName().."HotKey"];
		 
	hotkey:SetText(RANGE_INDICATOR);
	hotkey:Hide();
end

Overrides the ActionButton_UpdateHotkeys from Blizzard, instead of setting the binding as text it will always set it to RANGE_INDICATOR which is the dot sign.
This only hides the bindings, you still have to hide the macro text, but make sure you remove this line

_G[str.."HotKey"].Show = function() end;
