I can not. Being able to do so would probably fix my problem. I'll try and see if I can tweak it myself.

How easy would it be to configure or make a plugin to Grid to have it give you an icon/indicator/whatever of super-high threat targets. My idea is that Grid could show who could use a HoSalv (say 85% threat) and I could use a moueover macro or Click to Cast or similar so I could just click on people fairly easily. Thoughts on how to go about this?

Somehow managed to foul up my addons and smited all my grid settings.

For the life of me I can't find where to get rid of the shadows on name texts, had them removed on my old setup.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

This can happen with plenty of other addons too, probably has something to do with rounding the set size values multiplied by the scale factor to actual pixels. A quick way to fix this issue usually is to set your addon's scale to 1 and then set the frame width and heigth using pixels as they will appear on your screen.

Thank you for your answer.

I will try this as I have yet to fix this problem.

I think that GridStatusThreat does what you're looking for Pope Master. Give it a try!

Does anyone have a working module that will show ORA2 tanks? I used to use a module that showed them, but 3.0 broke it.

I've seen posts about it here and earlier, but none really cleared up the problem I'm having with the grid center icon. What I really want to do is get the grid center icon to display the cooldown spiral or at very least the duration of whatever Aura I select to show on the center icon; for example, renew. Is this possible?

Things I've Tried:
Grid Cooldown Text addon
Grid by itself, with its own renew aura
GridStatusHots

The icon cooldown frame and icon stack text options are turned on. Any ideas? Is this feature not yet fully implemented? Any help would be appreciated.

Is Grid Dynamic Layout gone?, the latest version is from pre-patch and doesn't work.

It's working for me, which is why I haven't updated it. Do you have specifics (error message ? unwanted behaviour ?) ?

No errors, it just doesn't show up as an option. I have all my addons saved since 2.4... i'll go back and see if i have an older version that'll work. Maybe i did something stupid like forgot to enable out-of-date addons in my addon interface, i'll check. thanks.

Grid is simply not showing some peoples names.

Sentouki · 11/14/08, 11:06 PM

Never mind me, I had a very old version somehow

Using Grid alone would help with that, but I wonder if it's really feasible to be switching between various profiles and settings all the time. The other part of this plan I'm not sure will work well is the issue of how much screen space Grid takes up for each size group; my monitor is annoyingly small and so I tend to have everything squished together pretty tightly. I could see that being fine for 25 people or less, but what about 40? It's unlikely I'd just be able to stick the extra 15 bars on the side somewhere, since it would almost certainly start overlapping other aspects of my UI, but I'd love to have my UI change as little as possible as I move between raids/arenas/BGs/other settings.

Any ideas or advice would be welcome (as long as it's more than "go buy a bigger monitor"!).

I use grid as my only UI, with gridstatuslifebloom of course. I don't think you'll have a problem getting rid of other UI's and effectively healing. Grid will definitely take care of any problems you have, you might need to get a grid mod or two though. I used to have the same problem with switching UI layouts from tanking to healing. I put some time into getting my grid set up just right, and now it's the only thing I need.

Also, I assume you are hiding party portraits while in a raid group. If screen space is an issue, not doing this will kill you. You can always change the size of the grid if your monitor is THAT small.

I am sure the answer is somewhere, I just haven't found it.

First time GRID user, health deficits show vertical, I want it horizontal, I got the horizontal thingie, but I don't know how to change it.
