Has anyone else had their bar textures become unusable? Looking at recount and hotcandy options, I only have 3-4 bar textures as valid anymore, even though there's a huge list.

edit: found the issue, somehow my recently updated mod list had a sharedmedia without a statusbar folder.

I'm trying to find an addon that will allow me to enable the new meters/bars blizz has created for encounters like Lord Rhyolith and Cho'gall.

I want to be able to see and move them without engaging the boss. If there is even an anchor it would be wonderful. Currently. The meter appears behind my bars.

Thanks in advance!

Edit: I found CustomPlayerPowerBarAlt - Addons - Curse

But it's not as beautiful as the blizzard alt power bar.

No idea if it's still working, but maybe worth a shot:

Alternatively, I use a quick macro before raid time to move mine beneath my SUF player frame. I haven't bothered to put it in addon form yet, but it doesn't require maintenance to keep in position.

/run PlayerPowerBarAlt:ClearAllPoints(); PlayerPowerBarAlt:SetPoint("TOP", SUFUnitplayer, "BOTTOM", 0, -10);

See API Region SetPoint - Wowpedia - Your wiki guide to the World of Warcraft for how to customize where it's located better. As it stands, it puts the top of the alternate power bar 10 units beneath the bottom of the player UF.

Thanks for your suggestions but I was frustrated after my post and I read about the viewport addon a couple of posts back and just installed one of these. Since I play on a 52" Screen I have plenty of room to spare. Now all my bars are below the 'game' portion of the screen. So this problem is a non-issue.

I do appreciate your help though!

I've found a neater (and up to date!) replacement for my old addon: BetterPowerBarAlt - Addons - Curse

Be sure to read the description, especially the part about the Maw of Madness.

And also, if you are using Chinchilla to alter your mini map, make sure you install the latest alpha from WoWAce. I've found out that Chinchilla bugs out every addon that tries to move the PlayerPowerBarAlt frame, including the script Pathal has posted above. The alpha seems to fix this issue according to the author.

Shadowed Unit Frames

Edit: Apparently the below is not supported by SuF. This addon (ShadowedUF Deficit - Addons - Curse) added the option to SuF to make it happen, though!

I'm using Shadowed Unit Frames, and I'm having some serious issues in making the following adjustments to my unitframes:

- My current health should be transparent;
- Any health deficit should be shown with normal, solid, colouring.

It's basically an inverted colorscheme. This video (&#x202a;Nightmares Asylum vs Algalon 10 man&#x202c;&rlm; - YouTube) shows a similar setup of what I'm trying to achieve.

Now for the life of me I can't reproduce this in SUF. I've been playing around with the invert option (Unit configuration > Widget size) and the transparancy of the background colours (General > Bars), but for some reason I can't control the transparency of the background when I'm using the invert option. It's always solid (picture: http://i.imgur.com/acmKQ.jpg). Any thoughts/ideas on how to reproduce the layout of the above video in SUF?

I just recently started using Aura Frames over SBF and while I like it quite a bit more, I'm having some trouble getting the filtering to work out properly. I feel like I'm probably missing something quite simple, but it's really frustrating me at this point.

I'm trying to create a container that will show debuffs on me, but I'd like to filter out specific debuffs that are relatively useless in a raid setting, like Recently Mass Resurrected. I've tried all different kinds of filters, but for the life of me I can't figure it out. Anyone know a good resource that I could turn to to help setting up expert filters, or would someone be willing to help walk me through the basics?

It's quite simple actually, just set up a filter with Subject "Spell name" and Operator "Not in list" and then enter one spell name at a time. I do the very same for buffs that are unimportant to me (Arcane Brilliance etc).

Thank you! Got it, and I feel kind of silly for not figuring it out earlier. Here is where I got hung up: what is Recently Mass Resurrected considered to be? That was the first aura I tried it with, and apparently it's not considered an aura?

Just wondering if anyone knows of an addon that functions like eventalert.

It was a great addon that gave the ability to track proc's buff etc. As a ret pally I loved it for tracking my inquisition and a few other things and it was very easy to use. Unfortunately it wasn't well supported and hasn't had an update since feb. I tried fixes that people posted in the comments of curse and it worked for a while but since firelands it's stopped showing my Inquisition. the main thing I want it for.

Anyway. any help would be much appreciated

Recently Mass Resurrected is a Debuff, similar to Exhaustion.

Well this may be a real noob question: I currently use DBM, Omen and Recount add-ons with the standard wow interface...been playing a year. I guess my question is is there a/an "addon Suite" or one encompassing addon that allows you to change your bar positions and such and gives the info from the aboved mentioned add-ons? And Is there a UI set-up anyone can recommend for Raid Tanking? Thanks
