    Anyone know how to put a background color on Tidy Plates Threat Plates?



    really dont like the clear background.

    using this update: http://www.wowinterface.com/download...FunUpdate.html

    edit: i figured it out. For anyone that wants to know:

    I added a line in TidyPlates_Threatplates\Styles\basicThemes.lua @ line 76 under healthbar

    Code:
    backdrop = 						"Interface\\AddOns\\SharedMedia\\statusbar\\HealbotBG",
    pointing to a custom texture in my SharedMedia folder.

    If using Stuf and you want 1 pixel borders, check out this really old post I've been using for years to alter Stuf to do exactly this.

    It requires you to do a little bit of altering to the mod itself, but I assure you it is quite easy. Basically just gotta do some copy/paste. As I said, I've been doing it for years and I have no coding experience.

    Example of the pixel-perfect borders with the altered code:

    Okay. I need a little assistance with Stuf. As shown in the image above, the target frame (top) has a Level and name display. Currently I am using the tag system in Stuf to create that using the following tags:

    Code:
    [difficulty:level][difficulty:classification] [reactionnpc:name]
    Which if targeting a rare lvl 100 mob named Cotton Eye Joe it would show 100 Rare Cotton Eye Joe

    What I would like to do it kinda keep it that way but have it truncate the name to C. E. Joe. I know this has to be done with LUA.

    So, what i need it to do is color the level and rarity by difficulty, color the name by class if a player, reaction if npc, and truncate the name.

    And then I need another bit of coding for the smaller frames in my UI (pet, tot, focus, etc). But for these I just need the name truncated and colored by player class/npc reaction (so leaving out the level and rarity).

    I've found code here and there doing some of the things listed but I just don't know how to get it all put together in a way to get the result I'm looking for. Any help is wholefully appreciated.

    Hi!
    I use ElvUI, and I've previously (just after WoD launch) added buff displays to the Elv raidframes to display HoTs. I use different coloured small squares in the corners of playerframes to show it.
    With the Legion changes, I'm trying to add another for Essence Font, but I can't for the life of me remember how to do it!
    Can anyone help?

    Ah alright. I was digging through my ElvUI yesterday and couldn't find it. Thanks for that!

    Showing the settings a person uses can take an awful lot of time. Especially if someone really does a lot of configuring and not just using the "out of the box" settings. Each element of the unit frames have their own individual settings. How it looks however can be easily shown. This is what mine currently looks like (cast bars aren't shown as they are done by another addon):

    I was thinking about making myself a "Mortal Strike on target alert" and I saw that wowhead has an effect listed for such spells
    Code:
    Apply Aura: Mod Healing Taken - % (Arcane, Fire, Frost, Holy, Nature, Physical, Shadow)
    My question is, can you query if any of the debuffs on target have this effect?

    That's the "self" nameplate. You can disable it under Interface > Names > Personal Resource

    A very long time ago there was an addon that would allow you to separate out the chat bar and move it to wherever you like. I don't want to move the entire chat window, but just the chat bar where you type text in. Hopefuly this screenshot will answer any questions about what I'm looking to do.

    The picture doesn't show for me but I know you can move the edit box with Prat 3.0.

    Prat's Editbox module does what you want. Just install Prat and disable all the modules except for Editbox in the Module Control tab of the settings.

    i'm trying to adapt this code to work for my target frame. right now it fades out my party frames if theyre out of range of me (because the stuf range fade just doesnt work at all...) anyone got any ideas?

    Code:
    local function PartyMemberFrame_OnUpdate_Hook(self, elapsed)
    	self.rangeAlpha_UpdateTimer = self.rangeAlpha_UpdateTimer - elapsed
    	if self.rangeAlpha_UpdateTimer <= 0 then
    		self.rangeAlpha_UpdateTimer = THROTTLE
    		
    		local targetAlpha = UnitInRange(self.unit) and 1.0 or FADE_ALPHA
    		if self:GetAlpha() ~= targetAlpha then
    			self:SetAlpha(targetAlpha)
    		end
    	end
    end
    
    for i = 1, 4 do
    	_G["PartyMemberFrame"..i].rangeAlpha_UpdateTimer = THROTTLE
    end
    
    hooksecurefunc("PartyMemberFrame_OnUpdate", PartyMemberFrame_OnUpdate_Hook)

    Does anyone have a way to get the old nameplates back? Really not a fan of the new nameplates.

    Over an year ago, I remember using this bag addon that allowed me to remove certain bag slots from the cleanup/sort bag options.

    For example, instead of putting an entire bag on the "no sort" list, I could just pick slots 1, 2 and 3 from from bag 1, and 6, 7, 8 from bag 3.

    Then no matter what, the addon would never move the items in those slots.

    I thought Bagnon could do that but the option to do so seems to be gone so maybe it was another bag addon.

    How can I get Grid2 to show black health bars with class colored background AND get heal indicators to work properly? Is it even possible?

    Here are my settings: http://gfycat.com/RawVainBorzoi

    If I use test mode and heal myself it shows them but in a raid it doesn't show heal indicators on anyone else at all, even when I heal them.
