I'm hoping I can find some help here in regards to Bartender.

Basically, I want to have an extra action bar shown when my character is in a vehicle. So the opposite of the "Hide on Vehicle" setting, and I know I need to use custom conditionals to do this. However, I've tried searching for this and none of the solutions I've found so far have worked. I've tried using [vehicle]show;hide and [bonusbar:5]show;hide (also tried changing that to bonusbar:8 as I use Bar 8 for this). I've also tried reversing hide;show, as I'm not entirely sure how the logic of these statements work, and so far none of them seem to work.

Below is a link to an image displaying what I want and how I can't get it to work:


Image 1 shows how my bars look normally, when not in a vehicle. Image 2 shows the bar 8 I want to be visible only when in a vehicle. Image 3 shows how this bar disappears when I try use a custom conditional.

The reason why I want it to only show when in a vehicle, is because I use 50% transparency borders on my buttons throughout my UI, so if it shows all the time, it disrupts the opacity of the ordinary action bar I have positioned there the rest of the time.

And yes, this is purely an aesthetic thing, my UI is functional without it but I'd appreciate any help with this as it's bugging me.

[target=vehicle,exists]show;hide

10Char

Works beautifully! Thanks.

Coincidentally I'm also looking for a font, it's the font used by the item "Belt of Neverending Agony" in the following screenshot: smg.photobucket.com/user/Dauk/media/4.jpg.html

This was posted in the topic Post Your UI at the bottom of page 670 where bigdumbfartlord69 called it:

This is the one I'll always remember as Halcyone UI:

Looking for 2 addons:

1. To show which of the 5.4 added glyphs I still need. I'm well aware I can use something like the Recipe List addon, but that's reallllly bloated and hard to navigate. Is there something similar for JUST inscription?

2. Something that will either automatically set it based on pre-set preferences or something that will remind me to change my loot spec (to a pre-set one I say) when I target a boss in LFR. Anyone know if something like this even exists?

1. Ackis Recipe List just split up into a core addon, and one-per-profession data addons. Still the same UI, but whatever, there really isn't another in-game source for this.

However, I may have a solution: the wowhead profiler is able to load your character, and show you what things you do and do not have learned. This is web based, entirely out of game, but obviously zero in-game overhead. Plus a nice UI. Maybe that solves your problem?

Anyone know how you might go about changing the metallic markers that denote group members who are off the minimap?

This appears to be the file: http://wowprogramming.com/utils/artb...GROUPARROW.png

However, replacing it seems to do nothing, as the same marker still appears even if you replace it, suggesting that WoW is pulling it from somewhere else. Thoughts, ideas, crazy theories?

Okay so I have a question about Shadowed Unit Frames. (SUF) I've been trying to use this Enlarge removable/stealable buffs/debuffs option and it doesn't seem to do anything. The mouseover says I can change the size with the scaled aura size option, but I really haven't seen anything that looks like that and I feel like I'm retarded for not understanding how the hell it works. Anyone know how to scale the enlarged buff size? Or something along those lines?

I'm trying to create a segmented power bar (via WeakAuras), but can't for the life of me figure out how to do 2 things:
How to color the bar based on power type (Energy/Rage/Focus/Mana)
How to actually manage to get each segment (4 in total, each representing 25% of max power) to properly track power.

I've gotten it how I want it to look, as seen here:

Making each segment track 25 Focus isn't possible without some custom lua. Fortunately I wrote that here:
http://pastebin.com/hPwP0jgU

Now there are ways to change the color depending on the power type. E.g. a color animation can do that, but a color animation runs for each frame, which is wasteful, so I'd would recommend just having one copy of this group per color.

Could anyone tell me what unitframes are used in this video?

I thought (and I may be wrong) that the dynamic bars or dynamic textures had a fill-up functionality. I know this isn't terribly helpful but you might try fiddling around with those until someone with a definitive answer comes along.

[Syphke]

Since yesterday some arrows ( sometimes 1 or 2 ) or a dumbs up sign,pops in the middle om my chars cloak when I target someone.

I've updated all my addons, turned them off to check wich one it could be, but can't find the solution.
It's also only on my priest, and not any other toon.

I have NO new addons and didn't done anything in the options.
Anyone who can figure out what it could be ?

Thank you kindly!

Hey. I'm looking to either create it myself or use one already created but I could not find anything with the simple feature I'm looking for.
I'm looking for a NPC_Kill_Counter which would increase a variable each time I killed a creature with a valid NPC ID.

For example: I'm tired of counting how many times I've killed Huolon (NPC 73167) and I would like to have a frame that displays my global kills and single character kills on this NPC.
My problem primarily lies in my lack of LUA coding, I've only ever attempted this once before which caused a great headache, and that I can not find the event which fires when you register a kill from the event list, wowprogramming . com / docs / events . (Link prevented from recent registration)
I'm definitely willing to attempt to script this myself, but I'm not seeing the possibility of it as of right now and would really like someone to throw me a bone.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

There is an addon for this: Rarity

It can pull up raid boss kills from previous statistics, but for mobs like Huolon, it can only start tracking it once you download the addon.
