rmod Layouts - Page 6

ren0 · 04/18/08, 12:01 AM

I couldn't find anything when looking through threads and the files themselves but...

With runits is there anything that I can add to make it obvious if I am flagged or not? Like an icon or color text?

My dilemma is that on Bartender 3 I have to use paging for my warrior due to stances and so on the Gorefiend event, the Ghost mode bar shows up on my pet bar. I don't have keybinds on the B3 pet bar and have to then end up mouse clicking and while I can deal with it, I just would rather not.

I like my keybinds, and would love the Ghost mode bar to go on Actionbar 1 since Blizz patched for it.

No it works fine on Gorefiend. It replaces the mainbar, like the chess event or when controlling the mini-tank-pet or sth. like that.

Thank you Zork. That does make things easier for me.

This is what I was trying to do with my earlier post on page 5 regarding the pvp icon but its not been answered as of yet and I haven't found the answer myself.

I don't use rUnits anymore, and I have not tested this, but I believe this should work. This is similar to how I accomplished adding a combat icon to my rUnits, previously.

Let's take what you have from your previous post:

local pvp = self:CreateTexture(nil, "OVERLAY")
	pvp:SetHeight(16)
	pvp:SetWidth(16)
	pvp:SetPoint("RIGHT", self, "LEFT")
	pvp:SetTexture"Interface\\PVPFrame\\PVP-Currency-Horde"
	self.PvP = pvp

Along with this, we must add the event that checks whether or not you are flagged. Checking WoWWiki, it seems that the function we want to use is UNIT_FACTION. We need to add this event to the core.lua.

Open up core.lua and scroll to 'local subTypes' (should be around line 83). We need to add the line:

["PvP"] = "UpdatePvP",

Once we do this, we need to add the event. Scroll down to 'local events', which should be right below the subTypes one. We will add this line here:

 UNIT_FACTION = "UpdatePvP",

After that, scroll towards the bottom around line 367 and find the 'function rUnits:RegisterObject(object, subType)'. Here we will add:

elseif(subType == "PvP") then
  object:RegisterEvent"UNIT_FACTION"

After we have completed all of this, we need to create a new file. Let us call it pvp.lua. Open up this blank file and we will create this function:

function rUnits:UpdatePvP(event)
    if(UnitIsPVP("player")) then
      self.PvP:Show()
    else
      self.PvP:Hide()
    end
end

Make sure everything is saved and try it out. As I said, I can't guarantee this will work as I haven't tested it myself.

Also, I am not sure that is the correct texture for the actual PvP status icon (unless you chose that texture out of preference); the correct one, I believe is this: "SetTexture("Interface\\TargetingFrame\\UI-PVP-FFA");"

I really liked rUnits general layout, however I would rather keep oUF in its standard form and make a layout for it than modify the source.

I thought I would post this, Here is a very similar layout to rUnits but for oUF.

Layout:Pastey.net - ace paste bin

So how does your layout differ from rUnits general layout? The only difference I notice is the texture change and possibly the font change.

Zypher04 · 04/20/08, 2:33 PM

Not meant to be clearly Different, Just to work with oUF.

The Only Real Differences are...

ToT and Focus names are Truncated to six characters.
Debuffs and Buffs on your target grow from the right to the left.
Bars are class colored instead of just a single color.
Raid and Party frames fade alpha to 0.3 when not in range.

The raid is sorted

505	raid:SetManyAttributes( 
506	    "point",   "TOP", 
507	    "sortDir",     "ASC", 
508	    "xOffset",     4, 
509	    "yOffset",     -4.1, 
510	    "groupingOrder",   "1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8", 
511	    "groupBy",     "GROUP", 
512	    "unitsPerColumn",  5, 
513	    "columnAnchorPoint",   "LEFT", 
514	    "columnSpacing",   4.9, 
515	    "maxColumns",  8 
516	)

Also adding this to your target code will allow you to filter only your debuffs.

debuffs.filter = true

Pastey.net - ace paste bin

I just figured I would post as an alternative to branching oUF into a seperate addon.

Thanks Zypher. oUF is a UnitFrame-framework from Haste that gets updated quite a lot. You can apply so-called "layouts" to it to make it look differently.

rUnits is based on a (now) rather old version of pUF (pUF from p3lim was originally a layout for oUF too) that was heavily modified by me.

The problem with the debuff filter for warriors is:
If someone else applied Demoralising Shout, Sunder Armor or Thunder Clap you will not see if the debuff is applied or not.

Zypher04 · 04/21/08, 6:53 AM

Are you sure?

All raid tonite I set debuff.filter = true to my target frames and I would see OmniCC put a timer on top of my casted SW:P, VT, and VE. The Other shadow priests dots always were there as well but seeing as I didn't cast them OmniCC didn't place cooldown times on them.

zork · 04/21/08, 10:14 AM

If thats the case the debuff filter works properly

I have a question. What is the advantage to these UI bars? Why not just use pitbull which seemingly presents more information and is easier to set up.

Zypher04 · 04/22/08, 3:44 AM

It would seem to me that Pitbull would take quite a lot more time to setup than rUnits or even oUF and an oUF layout.

- Less memory usage
- Less cpu usage
- You learn sth. about how creating your own addons

Hello all,

I've been working with the layout section of rUnits to configure my frames. I want to modify the raid frame to look more like grid (frame breaks off for each party) instead of having one long list. Has anyone got any hints on how to do this? I am suspecting that I'll have to make 5 new frames, one for each raid group. Is there any other way to do this?

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: I found this layout on WoWI, I'll try to figure out how he did it.

Zypher04 · 04/26/08, 12:50 AM

oUF:RegisterStyle("Raid", setmetatable({
	["initial-width"] = 38,
	["initial-height"] = 32,
}, {__call = func})) -- func would be your main layout function

oUF:SetActiveStyle("Raid")

local raid = {}
for i = 1, 8 do
	local rGroup = oUF:Spawn("header", "oUF_Raid" .. i)
	rGroup:SetAttribute("groupFilter", tostring(i))
	rGroup:SetAttribute("showRaid", true)
	rGroup:SetAttribute("yOffset", -8)
	table.insert(raid, rGroup)
	if i == 1 then
		rGroup:SetPoint("TOPLEFT", UIParent, "TOPLEFT", 16, -40)
	else
		rGroup:SetPoint("TOPLEFT", raid[i-1], "TOPRIGHT", 8, 0)		
	end
	rGroup:Show()
end

Would be a how its done in oUF, rUnits idk if it supports SetActiveStyle atm.

Very nice, thanks!

My rBars aren't hiding the background art for the aura/stance/shapeshift bar. I've been messing with different parts of the code but whatever I do either breaks the mod completely or does nothing at all. Anyone else have this problem and care to point me to the correct part of the code to fix it. Thanks.

The trick is to overwrite the background texture with a transparent one. So you don't have to mess with the code.

The file-names you need to overwrite can be found in the BonusActionBarFrame.xml

http://wdnaddons.com/2418124/FrameXM...onBarFrame.xml

2 files:
- Interface\ShapeshiftBar\ShapeshiftBarMiddle
- Interface\ShapeshiftBar\ShapeshiftBar

Get yourself a transparent BLP. Create the folder. Put the transparent BLP-files in there and name them:
ShapeshiftBarMiddle.blp and ShapeshiftBar.blp. Restart World of Warcraft an check the result.

Worked like a charm, Thanks.

since i am new to the oUF Framework i would like to know if it is possible to build up group frames sidewards instead of up/downwards.
I can use yOffset to make it go up or downwards but xOffset isn't working.

Any ideas?

in rUnits layout.lua change it to:

      -- new party
    point = "RIGHT",
    sortDir = "DESC",
    yOffset = 10,

Haven't been able to put in an x Offset so theyre spaced quite yet, though.

Maybe some of this functions is missing:

Try to add:

PetActionBar_OnEvent = function()
  if ( event == "PET_BAR_UPDATE" or (event == "UNIT_PET" and arg1 == "player") ) 
  then
    PetActionBar_Update();
    if ( PetHasActionBar() and UnitIsVisib
