When using the Dogtag2.0 texts, is there a "not" conditional? If so, how do i use it?

For example, i want to display my missing mana only when the frame is not my mouseover.

Any help is appreciated
You use the "~" character in front of the tag you want to negate. In your case, it'd be ~IsMouseover.

I have been trying for quite some time now to import custom textures to Karthus's Hunter Timers. I am fairly happy with my UI, but the default texture of KHT does not fit well at all. I tried to figure it out myself but there is no "textures" folder or anything similar in the AddOn. Can anyone help me out (It is not Ace2, so I don't think there's a way to use SharedMedia to change the texture, in case anyone was curious)?

I'm looking for a mod that will move the position of the pvp capture bar that's usually below the minimap. I've moved the minimap to the bottom right corner of my screen and since the bar is anchored to that by default I can't see it.

@Theorime:
If the mod provides the textures in .tga format, it should be possible to add it easily through the Ace library SharedMedia. First copy the .tga texture file to "Interface/Addons/SharedMedia/MyMedia files" folder, then create the file called MyMedia.lua in the Interface/Addons/SharedMedia folder and inside put:

local SML = AceLibrary("SharedMedia-1.0")
MyMedia = AceLibrary("AceAddon-2.0"):new()

function MyMedia:OnInitialize()
	local SML = AceLibrary:HasInstance("SharedMedia-1.0") and AceLibrary("SharedMedia-1.0") or nil
	if SML then

	--statusbar:
		SML:Register("statusbar", "xxxxx", "Interface\\Addons\\SharedMedia\\MyMedia files\\yyy.tga")

	end
end
replacings the xxx's with the texture's name (what you'll see in game) and the yyy's with the texture's filename.

Arglum, I did not see any .tga's. I'll give it another look, thank you.

EDIT: Confirmed, NO .tga OR texture folders... Actually, there aren't any folders in the AddOn at all.

Also, if you use Simple Mini Map, you can unlock the movers This will allow you to move quest timers, pvp objectives, etc.

Is there a way I can force Omen to stay within a specified height, or possibly restrict the number of bars it will display? I've been through the /rock and /omen config many, many times and couldn't see anything there although I guess I could have missed something. Basically I have a relatively height restricted space I want to fit it in but can't find a way to stop it stretching out.

/script OmenAnchor:SetHeight(120)

That /script command will set the frame to the correct size, but only until Omen updates then its back out to normal.

Any help would be very much appreciated on this

Right click on Omen -> Display -> Skin Settings -> Bars -> Number of Bars

I've been toying a lot with my UI and found the bar texture I like best to be Minimalist. When I was replacing addons, specifically Recount with Assessment, I figured out Minimalist was only availible because it was in Recount. I don't want Recount (anymore) but I'd love to keep my bars. Is there a way to separate the bar texture from the rest of the addon?

Anyone have this problem to their UI? After 2.3 flightmasters became unresponsive, taking multiple clicks to get on the flight. BG queuing and arena queue have the same problem.

No errors was caught inside bugsack too.

It's a bug that Blizzard is aware of, but it only occurs if you double click on an NPC with a "gossip" dialog box. Single clicking will stop it from freaking out.

(16:19:52) (manly) i mean, think of it this way, if you were a retard, do you think you would realize your a retard spreading butter on your chest crying in the rain ?
(16:20:05) (manly) no youd just think thats normal

need some suggestions

hey, so this is my first post and i need some help w. my ui. im running on a fairly old laptop so it cant handle much, but the changes ive made thus far have improved performance significantly. i need really clean lightweight ui's for everything. heres what i have:



right now its x_perl for target frames, bongos2 to move stuff around, omen for threat meter, mikscrolling battle text, tomtom for coords. theres also another that recording data on mobs(not shown).



as per suggestions, take into account i really need threat meters, a good clean raid set up, a better chat system, perhaps a different scrolling battle text, definately good de/buff displays and better minimap. Damage tracker would be nice, but its optional. ive seen a lot of really nice ui's posted but they dont say what they are. oh yea, im running 1024x768 so it has to work for that... i know, so little spaceee. oh, if you make a suggestion plz post a screen shot of the setup too.

thanks!

Bongos has a feature that'll hide the bar until you mouse over it. I think you unlock bars, right click on it, then set the autofade opacity down to whatever you'd like. This will allow for more viewing space. I love simpleminimap and MiniMapButtonBag. Simpleminimap will let you change your map or get rid of some of the buttons on it (example: you can change it to a square map with no border, no location bar, and get rid of the tracking and time indicators). MinimapButtonBag will take all your buttons on the minimap and put them into one button that expands when you click on it.
For buffs satrina buff frames is great, you can move them anywhere, change size, time indicators, etc.

I have a wide black bar across the bottom of my screen where the chat window and icons are, and I can't for the life of me figure out how to make it go away. I'd like to either remove it or make it transparent. Anyone know?
