I am looking for a very specific feature but wasn't able to find it yet:

1) I want buffs to be displayed as a small icon that gets darkened in a clockwise manner.
This is supported by almost all unitframe addons out there.
2) I would like to customize the buffs displayed next to the unitframe to only show specific buffs/debuffs.
For example I would like to display all buffs that have a max duration of less than for minutes because those would generally be combat related next to the unitframe. All unitframes I have tested so far (Pitbull/aguf) only support the "class filter" of auras which is not enough as I want to see trinket buffs/hots/fear ward/... are all shown (long time buffs are displayed out of focus in the top right corner)
3) Optional: merging of buffs/debuffs (mostly used for hots so they don't waste too much space)

I would prefer an all-in-one unitframe addon that can do the first two points, but if this is not possible I would also take some pointers to a buff-only addon that I can manually place next to the normal unitframes.

I already tried:
Pitbull - only class filters but nice icon display
AgUF - same
Elkanos buff bars - filtering functionality is powerful enough, but only supports bars not icons
Satrina buff frames - same
DebuffFilter - can't make icons small enough and ugly border

Does anyone know an addon with that functionality or can tell me where to find the option in the addons I mentioned?

Bagh, guess it's time for me to finally rewrite my code for adding the cooldown spiral to EBB. I think that covers all of what you're looking for, correct? (You can make it only icons by shrinking the bar to 0 length) I'll upload it here once I finish rewriting the code, probably some time tonight.

This should heal your target if you have nothing under your cursor and your target is friendly.

Works Like a charm, the third condition made my day. Thank You very much.

Sounds good, though it is difficult to align EBB to unitframes because EBB bars (or icons with zero bar width) can only grow upwards or downwards and only work with one column of buffs. So with a rectangular unitframe that is wider than higher it would look strange if there are more than 5 buffs/debuffs because they move away from the frame.

Hi guys,
Quick question. Not sure if this is the right section but here we go. I've been fiddling around on the beta and i'm missing an addon that I really like: classtimer.
Anyone know of an addon like it that works in wotlk?

Silly_Syra · 09/09/08, 11:45 AM

Evio:

There are probably a few other dot/cd timers somewhere for wotlk but here are two I found.

Ellipsis (Multi-TargetDoTTimers)
Sorrens Timers

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for specific script or addon or anything to set one thing I want to change (like simplecombatlog does) sentence "Your reputation with...increased by 75" into

[Rep][Faction][+amount]

I'm using Prat also if it helps to do it that way.

Any help is appreciated.

How do i configure ag_unitframes? I've gotten to the original window which is just a list in the chat window but I am unsure of where to go from there.

Geko · 09/10/08, 6:39 PM

Looking for some help with 2 addons or lua editing in general.

Got a SS for ya aswell.

Yata and RCD_Display.

The totem timers, there are 2 colors.
One that represents time left on the totem, and the other color represents time consumed.
I would like to turn the color on the time consumed; Black or invisible.
Same goes for RCD_Display. Time consumed, black or invisible.

If you have any feedback on my UI in general, thats appreciated.

Simple question:
I use Grid and would like health bars to be transparent, but only when full. How can I accomplish this?

atomicalibi · 09/12/08, 10:24 PM

I've recently downloaded AG Unitframes and I just have a few questions:
- Is there a way to lock the position? (and if so, how?)
- Can you have it show your party's targets?

Zaemu · 09/15/08, 7:40 AM

I've pretty much put my UI together now, all is perfect except for one thing...... Target debuffs!
At the moment I'm using PitBulls Aura for that function. There are a few things i can't really figure out though.

1. I have it set up so it filters debuffs according to my class and it's working fine.. Except for when I'm on the same target as another Rogue, it shows his debuffs as well. Is there any way to avoid that?

2. I'd also like to see some other debuffs besides my own (ie Sunder etc). Somehow i just can't figure out how to do that smoothly. -.-

Appreciate any help on this matter as it's basicly the finishing touch on my setup! Also excuse me if theese are stupid questions, I'm not exactly a UI expert.

TellMeWhen will do this.
