Is it possible to Auto-sheathe after combat, or not right after combat but with 10-15sec delay?

Can anyone make it?

    Auto sheathe is already present as part of Wykkd Framework (and ton of other usefull feautures too-but if you dont like them -its higly customizable)

    Bob, after you make it "ON", reload UI with /reloadui command.

    I believe you can already do this in game without addons. Check your keybindings, but mine is 'Z'

    I didnt think Zeni allowed add ons that automate the game.

    Yes but it is still automation which is bannable.

    You used to be able to, now I'm not sure. It may have been removed from the public API, which would explain why @Wykkyd 's is failing. If Zenimax exposes it through the API, then they probably don't consider it automation worth suppressing. If they removed it, then you're SOL

    It wasn't removed from the API. The problem is the limitations of the API. There is 1 single command in regards to sheathing weapons:

    ToggleWield()

    Wykkyd's Framework has an "auto-sheath" that says, "after combat ToggleWield()"

    I plan to go in and work up a convoluted routine for figuring out if you have done something that SHOULD have FORCED you to wield. But... it's still not going to be perfect until they improve the API.

    If there was a "detect wield" call, it would be easy. There isn't. If there was an event that fired when you started wielding, it would be easy. I haven't found one yet.

    It's not automation.

    If you're just looking for auto-sheathe and nothing else, try this:
    http://www.esoui.com/downloads/info256-StowItAuto-Sheather.html

    As Wykkyd says, it's not trivial to make a "proper" auto-sheathe addon due to limitations in the API:
    1. The API fires an event upon entering combat, but not on leaving combat.
    2. There's no event or API method to discern if weapons are wielded or sheathed.
    3. There's no discrete "draw" or "sheath" API commands, just a "draw/sheathe" toggle.
