PitBull: New UnitFrame Addon - Page 62

Gourd · 02/11/09, 7:16 PM

Over the past few months (I'm unsure as to what version of pitbull I was using when this started happening), I have been having issues with the class colors on my unit frames. Occasionally when I switch target, the health bar (which I have colored by class) will remain the same color as that of the class I was previously targeting for ~5 seconds, although the name of my target will be displayed correctly as will their portrait. I have been trying to determine whether or not there certain circumstances that make this more likely to occur, but as of yet I have not been able to notice any trends or cause this to happen on demand. It occurs very inconsistently, but is highly frustrating - has anyone else who has experienced a similar problem been able to determine how to solve this?

Problem for me:

I'm using Pitbull raid frames, and disconnect happens while in combat. When I reconnect, I do not have my raid frames up. I understand Pitbull cant create unitframes while in combat (I think)?

Is there a way around it? I've never tried /reloadui cos if I need to use the raid frames(I'm prolly healing), I would just pull blizzard's default raid to get back into healing asap. If reloadui works, I would really like an alternative, cant risk just standing still loading and risk death or whatever.

Simple question about Pitbull. I'm trying to get my target frame's HP to drain from top to bottom and I can't figure it out.

This is my UI so you get can get a better sense of what I'm trying to do.

I'd appreciate any help. Thanks.

Vertical bars are pretty hard to create in Pitbull and require extensive .lua-coding. Some of the UI-residents already did it if I'm not mistaken. Searching this thread for "vertical bars" or something similar should yield quite a few results.

I've had another problem as well with the party frames: Occaisionally they just won't update at all when someone joins the party. For example, someone will invite me so we're the only two people in the party, but then the next three people he invites will never show up in the frames. Last time it happened i tried a /reloadui and the frames came back, but the default bliz party frames also appeared underneath them. It only fixed itself after a relog. It hasn't happened enough for me to pinpoint the cause, but i could well have been in combat when joining the party like the error with the ghost frames.

I'm having the same problems here. They are very frustrating because valid and fast UF are very important for me (and of course in general)

This picture summarizes the problems quite well: (it's me I am targeting)

Any Idea how this problem could be solved? Does PB4 has the same Problem?

Thanks,
Friccs

Friccs did you tried to turn off "Color by Class" option on target hp bar?

I have the debuff filter turned on for my Target. It only shows debuffs I put up. My problem is I never seen Righteous Vengeance on the target and I know it should be there as I can watch the damage from it tick in my combat log. Any idea how to fix it? I thought that maybe I could make a DogTag to color the unit frame when it is up (Similar to how the frame looks when I get Frost Nova'd).

Been looking for the answer for this in a number of threads but haven't found it yet. How can I make the aura borders look like this: http://joev.jo.funpic.org/ui/12-12-09.jpg in pitbull? Can't figure it out.

This is because it only shows the relevant debuffs, and not those debuffs that doesn't affect anything at all (the fact that RV is up won't change what spell you want to use and so on).

It shows JoL/J/W and those don't affect what spell I would use. RV is a relevant debuff for a Ret paladin. I am sure I didn't ask for an explanation of why it isn't up there. I asked if there was a fix to force it to show it or if that had to be done via a DogTag.

Edit: Never mind, made a DogTag that suits me quit fine.

Kuthumii, I imagine its a bug in the filter mechanic, as it is something that should be showing whether or not you are filtering. If you can, you should bugrep it.

I have tried using this AND Xpearl and with both UI mods I get an error every time I try to set a focus target. It does not allow me to set a focus. Is there a UI mod that does work with setting focus targets or is there a possible setting I have incorrect? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Pretty sure that you will not get an error if you bind your focus key and use it that way.

It's a flaw in Blizzard's code - not the addons'. You can use /focus instead.

Hmm I haven't been seeing my red highlight from pitbull Banzai in a while, I can't figure out whats missing. I have the necessary modules and I've made sure my settings are proper, and yet, nothing. Any ideas?

Are there any special Libs I should be running?
