That option is present in stock grid.

Sorry, I wasn't as clear as I should have been. I mean all groups in one column. I see it in some custom UI packages but I can't figure out how to do it.

Something like this.

It's pretty easy to add yourself: Go edit Grid/GridLayoutLayouts.lua and add

GridLayout:AddLayout("Feral 25 ", {
	[1] = {
		groupFilter = "1,2,3,4,5",
		unitsPerColumn = nil,
	},
})

GridLayout:AddLayout("Feral 10 ", {
	[1] = {
		groupFilter = "1,2",
		unitsPerColumn = nil,
	},
})

Say, around line 13 (before the first line that starts with "GridLayout:AddLayout"). Those are then for 25 and 10 man, if you want that for different group sizes, just add the same thing, replace "Feral 10" by another unique name, and change "groupFilter" to the right number of groups. If that's troubling, send me a PM

This worked! Thanks a bunch. I should learn Lua at some point.

Hi there,
I have tried all I can possibly think of - to no end. I need to see the lifebloom stacks that are on a given target and can't.

I am using grid (I believe the lastest version), and I also have DruidStatusHots. StatusHots appears not to be working and I can't find an updated version.

It would be nice if I could see both, LB stacks and duration but if only one is possible number of stacks is much more important to me. Can anyone help?

Thanks a million for helping me keeping my fellows alive ^^

GridStatusHots works for me. Did you get it here: GridStatusHots - WoW AddOns - WowAce.com ?

Fierynarya · 01/23/11, 12:19 PM

Ok, downloaded it, and I can see it in the grid option BUT, alas, no matter how I change the settings around, I see neither a colour change or a stack count. Reinstall all?

( or perhaps you could share your settings with me?

You could download my compilation SanUI : Class Specific Compilations : WoWInterface AddOns which features a fully configured grid for restodruids. Note that you shouldn't use the grid that comes with it, unless you're also using tukui. Just take the savedvariables file (profile name would be SanHeal).

A quick search of this thread didn't turn up anything.

I've been having a strange issue with Grid. Whenever a Fire Mage's Cauterize procs, the health bar display sinks to 1hp or 0hp (the actual hit points text status goes into negative numbers), then stays there. Other healers using other add-ons like Vuhdo are properly showing his HP, however. No matter what damage or heals he takes, the health bar just stays at zero, and the HP text status keeps showing gibberish.

This doesn't happen frequently. It seems to occur only when I'm in combat (when I'm dead, Cauterize tends to not bug out my health bar), and occurs most commonly on the Heroic Halfus encounter.

Is this a known issue at all? Any suggestions for a workaround or quick fix?

Pyrates · 01/25/11, 5:47 AM

I've not yet heard of this issue. Are you using the latest release of grid? If so, you should put up a ticket here: Grid - Tickets - WoW AddOns - CurseForge.com

I tried that, i.e. I copied your savedvariables file into my wtf folder. Since I am not using tukui, only the savedvariables. Still doesn't work. Unless anyone has a better idea, I guess my best bet would be to delete erverything grid related an install and configure from scratch *grml.

Thanks for trying Pyrates, I appreciate it :-)

Pyrates · 01/26/11, 6:20 AM

Are you positive you copied the savedvars file to the right place? Should easily be noticeable by the looks of grid, but just making sure... do you have lua errors turned on? Get BugGrabber or Swatter to show them properly, maybe the trouble's somewhere else. Please share the versions of your Grid and GridStatusHots.

I'm using the stock Incoming Heals status indicator.

I would like to tweak this indicator (or find a different one) to show all incoming heals. In particular I want to show the total amount of incoming HoTs with this indicator, not just the next tick.

Anyone know how to do this?

As a healer, with larger health pools in Cataclysm I've become less interested in immediate response to spike damage and more interested in cutting back on overhealing.

Pyrates · 01/26/11, 12:24 PM

Incoming heal nowadays is implemented by the client, so all addons that show those use the blizzard feature (which is bugged a bit anyways). What you want is not provided, so the addon would have to estimate the coming heal by itself, which in the case of other people's hots needs a borderline insane amount of book-keeping. Probably the only real possibility lies in the way it was done before the client provided the data, i.e. have everybody use a certain library which provides communication between the healers in a raid. I don't think there's one that's developed though, libhealcomm has been abandoned over a year ago. So: No chance, unless you're up to the task yourself or you can bribe a good developer.

(e) Thought about it some more, it wouldn't be _that_ hard to do if you can live with some guesswork. You'd somehow estimate people's haste by configuration or whatnot, and then you can use the first tick of a hot to determine how much it heals in total. Can't do that on application though (most of the time), and you'd still have to code it.

I remember that i have somewhere in cata back an otpion to not only show a dot in a corner for Riptide, but also alter the color based on the duration (green if fresh, yelow if middle and red if it is about to fall off) - however, i can not find this setting again.
