I'm pretty sure you cant do that with Grid. What you have probally seen in other UI's is Pitbull's raid interface.

KrinKer: Get GridHorizontalLayouts. That's what I use to get Grid to behave like this:

The API is not available to check range from a relative point. It isn't even fully there to check range from yourself, you can just get a range where you are depending on what abilities are available and unavailable.

For a single-column grid layout including groups 1-5, you'll need to edit Grid's code. It's super easy though. Just use Notepad if you have nothing else.
Open INTERFACE // ADDONS // GRID // GridLayoutLayouts.lua
Now add this at the end of the file:
GridLayout:AddLayout(L["25 Single Col"], {
[1] = { groupFilter = "1,2,3,4,5",
maxColumns = "1",
maxUnitsPerColumn = "25",
},
})
You'll now be able to select this layout "25 Single Col" from the Grid layout menu the next time you load WoW.

Noraj, you're pretty much my hero. Now, I spend a ton of time grinding honor in AV and would like to be able to have all 40 raid members showing. If I wanted to do that, would I change the groupFilter line to "1,2,...,7,8", and maxUnitsPerColumn to 40?

It's been a while since I messed around with Grid, but I know I never edited the code. When I use the GridHorizontalLayout, I get an option for Layout -> Raid Layout -> Horizontal 25. Then just check on the "Horizontal groups" setting in Layouts (sometimes I have to uncheck/recheck it if I join a party, not a raid, to get it to go into vertical mode).
The code editing bit does look a bit easier, though. I might have to try that

Yes. You would change that line to
groupFilter = "1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8" ,
You can also use class names in all caps (PALADIN, MAGE, ROGUE) to replace the group numbers if you only want to show certain classes.
You could also do a two column layout this way:
GridLayout:AddLayout(L["TwoColumn 40"], {
[1] = { groupFilter = "1,2,3,4",
maxColumns = "1",
maxUnitsPerColumn = "20",
},
[2] = { groupFilter = "5,6,7,8",
maxColumns = "1",
maxUnitsPerColumn = "20",
},
})

I'm also looking for a way to do this.
edit:
Someone on the wowace forums helped me out, it works
Delete line 162 in GridFrame.lua:
f:SetHighlightTexture("Interface\\QuestFrame\\UI-QuestTitleHighlight")

is there a way to graphically display the amount of the incoming heals? i could swear at some point during the configuration of my grid this was the case. i did install IncomingHeals and IncomingHealsLib. actually text2 shows me the health deficit in red, if i cast a heal on the target it'll show me the estimated amount of healing in green. that's already very nice.
what i want now is that the amount of healing a target gets is also shown in his health bar, perhaps with a bit more opacity as i know it from healbot (this stopped working on healbot, that's why i switched to grid). i'd would be perfect if all that would sync with other healers, so i could see how much other healers will be healing on which target (instead of just the green dot that shows me incoming healing, yes or no). actually visual heals does that for me, but this is an additional bar i don't really need, and it shows incoming heals only on target i'm actually casting a heal on.

Simple one I would think, but for the life of me I can't find it.
Trying to get rid of the shadowed text that is on the player name for each unit, how?

All of the font related strings seem to be in Interface\\AddOns\\Grid\\GridFrame.lua , so I'd start looking there for exactly which one it is that handles the "shadow" effect.

This works perfect for what I want it to do with my UI. Only thing is, I have my grid setup where it always shows and when I zone out of, say AV where my grid frames are sized a different way then they are when I am solo or grouped. Is there any way to have it say, if I am not in one of the zones listed, use this profile?
Also, is anyone else having the problem of having to turn grid on then off "standby" to make it fully update? Or am I missing something here?
