So I'm bad at searching or no one answered this or I'm an idiot but is there a way (for a druid) to only show their hots on grid, rather than any druid's hots ?

Would help me a ton

Thanks

I have it show the duration of my hots in the corner text: Get GridStatusHots and GridIndicatorCornerText, set the corner text to My XXXXX (hot name), and under Status -> My HoTs -> XXXX, uncheck "Show HoTCounter"

This puts the duration of my hot in the corner.

^ thats what I used to do.

Today I downloaded Grid-IndicatorIconBars and it will not let me show just MY hots. I tried:
1) just MY hots = nothing
2) MY hots + generic hots = nothing
3) just generic hots = works but shows every other druids hots (which is not what I want)

any help on this? thank you so much!

Now I have to run around looking at my rebirth spell ungraying, rather than the grid, trying to get in range of them.

This didn't used to be that way.

Sounds like you need to enable the range filter, make sure it's set to the correct distance, and check to make sure that the colour set for 'death warning' is different from the colour of 'more than x yards'.

Until recently i was able to configure Grid using Fubar by simply right clicking on "Grid" on my Fubar, which would bring up a series of waterfall menus that i could navigate through. However, this menu is no longer accessible, and I'm forced to configure grid through the Grid Config window. I'm pretty sure I've just unclicked an option somewhere, but i figure out what it is. Any help would be appreciated.

I've attached a picture of the kind of menu that I'm talking about.

I have a simple yet silly question. I want my bars to be dark grey, but I want the health deficit to be a color of my choosing. Currently it seems to make the deficit a few shades lighter than whatever you're using as the master square color. Is this possible?

To better explain (this is not my grid)

This guy's squares get a white area with hp loss, I want a red (or pink or purple, etc) area.

[W:From] [Kadrok]: I switched my DI button with the RPG-GG from Wintergrasp, apparently. I tried to shoot you with a rocket
[R] [80:Chocula]: druids are literally the best class
<Nite_Moogle> i miss raiding with carebare :< she makes me feel like i am not the only person that hates everyone
[R] [80:Werebeef]: q: what do you tell a shaman who's been nerfed twice a: nothing you already totem twice
[G] [80:Pyla]: yeah, I can take 2 inches, but once it gets over a half foot or so I get sick

Is this what you're after? I just turned off class colors and set the color for Unit health to the desired value.

Yea but see how your square is like a really really dark red and the deficit is light red. I want it true black for the main square.

I think thats something you can't fix with options. I've got some extra time today so I'll look into the lua and see what code change it would take to fix that.

Update: They didn't provide a variable for changing the Bar transparency. So here's how you do it. In the attached picture you can see 4 entries where it is set to 0.8 in GridFrame.lua. Change each of these to 1.

If you don't want to bother with this, I've attached the latest version of Grid from wowace.com with the modification already done.

You could try using Clique. It lets you assign click-casting. I've been using Clique + Grid and was able to get rid of Decursive. I have yet to try it on my priest for healing yet, but theoretically you should be able to do it.

You need a separate addon for that called Clique.

Have always been a Healbot fan. Going to give this guy a shot.

Edit: GRID is nice, but it's a bit small for my liking. Sure you can make it bigger, but then it takes up too much space on my screen x.x There a way you can only make certain players a bigger size?

Imho the best way is using mouse over macros, because it saves a pinch of time and you don't accidentally select a player frame.

Hi,

I'm a healer/tank and first of all I think Grid is brilliant... I placed my Grid right at the feet feet of my tree - basically in the middle of the screen.
Anyway, when I change specs from resto to feral, I always have to move Grid manually to the side, which involves unlocking Grid, cos otherwise I'd move Grid accidentally, move it and lock it again - same process when I change specs back.
Is there a possibility of putting that process in a macro which I would just use when I change specs?

I know there is a "Hide Grid tab" option where you should be able to still move Grid (with Alt modifier) if the tab is not shown, but if I do that I can't move Grid at all.

Any suggestions appreciated.

Profiles in grid also save the position of the grid. So create two profiles (identical in all aspect save where the grid is positioned if need be) and then you can use macros to switch between positions. Something like:

/grid profile choose Tank

or

/grid profile choose Heal

where 'Tank' and 'Heal' are the names of your profiles.

Edit: Which you can of course link to the macros you use to change spec, for example something like:

/equipset Tank
/grid profile choose Tank
/usetalents 1

I know it's possible, but how do I remove the class colored frames and make it default black? I only want the centered class text to be class colored, not the actual frame.

Thanks!

Uncheck Grid > Status > Health > Unit health > Use class color.

In theory, there should be; by changing the health deficit into unit health. However, it seems it's bugged at the moment, see the bug report here: Grid - 204 - Unit health status text shows deficit instead of current health - WoW AddOns - WowAce.com
