I've seen the compact raid frame with both Aurora and Aurora Missing Textures, it removes the "bar" texture around the arrow that extends said frame.

With both, it's a grey arrow, everything else is removed. It's still there, just hard to see.

If that "bar" frame is what the OP wants to see, it can't be that hard to pick out of the textures.

[Pixil]

What about that frame? The "bar" with an arrow that shows up along the edge of the screen or the frame when it is expanded to show the markers, etc...?

All of it really. Mainly the bar on the side of the screen. The one that once you click it, it expands to make the Raid Utility options appear. But I would just like to use the original blizzard skin for this entire unit. (or find another, more visible one)

[Birkin]

In WeakAuras, is there a way to determine if an equipped item has a permanent item enhancement? More specifically, as I'm leveling, I want to make sure my equipped boots always have Enchant Boots - Earthen Vitality enchanted on them.

Or alternatively, is there any addon that would serve this similar purpose?

[PyroVK]

im looking for an addon similar to LivingBomb Tracker http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/livingbombtracker

been using it since ICC but recently it just hasn't been working, even when loading out of date addons. i know about magebomb tracker and the one included with combustionhelper, but i prefer the little layout box livingbomb tracker provided when I scrolled over a target.

and to those who don't know bout this addon... basically when u mouseover cast Living Bomb(or any bomb spell) it will show the time remaining before the explosion in a little dark, red colored box. this box appears under ur mouse pointer whenever u mouseover the target affected by the bomb spell.

So im using STUF Unit Frames and im having an issue with getting the highlight bar to disappear. Here is a picture of what I mean

http://puu.sh/14mJw

When I change the opacity and the background opacity to zero it's still there. And I cant seem to find the option to get rid of it. Has anyone had this issue at all? Here is Screenshots of all the settings I believe will be helpful in finding out what the cause is

Target Frame: http://puu.sh/14mKo
Health Frame 1: http://puu.sh/14mKy
Health Frame 2: http://puu.sh/14mKB
Power Frame 1: http://puu.sh/14mKE
Power Frame 2: http://puu.sh/14mKH

Thanks to all who help in advance

I've never used many buff/debuff addons, so I'd very much appreciate any help here. I've never had to look at my buffs while in a fight, but now that Warriors need to keep an eye on stacks of Taste For Blood, I'd like if I didn't have to look up to the top right of the screen to check. Any ideas on an addon that could help me? Thanks.

Edit: I'm kind of thinking about the setup that ElvUI has, where it has all of your buffs on bars.

When you're trying to keep track of certain buffs, trying to look at all of your buffs for a certain one usually isn't a good idea. I would use PowerAuras or WeakAuras for that. PA is a little easier to use, but WA is a lot more powerful. I prefer WA. Here's a link to a premade PowerAuras aura for TfB: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/2140508893

I started working on my add-ons from ground up, but suddenly I realised that all the unit frame headers are gone (http://i.imgur.com/mrysV.jpg). Now my question is... How do I get the unit headers back? It annoys the hell out of me that I can't even see the players who are currently around me. I tried clicking them on through the default interface options but I had no luck. I thought maybe TipTac or ElvUI might be over-riding some options, but I found no way to get the headers back from there either. Any ideas what could be causing this and how to get it back? And should I actually give a full list of my add-ons to narrow down what's causing this?

Thanks in advance!

Thank you so much! I downloaded WeakAuras, and while it looked complicated at first, I just fiddled around with some settings and I've got to say...that's exactly what I wanted. Thanks again.



Edit: Nevermind, got it.

Does anyone know, if there is a pixelfont, that looks good in a fontsize above 10?

[Djuntas]

Can weakaura also track things like trinket procces/on use, and weapon enchant procces etc or how long CD's have left (Beserker, 10 sec's in my case).

Thanks for any replies.

Pixel-fonts are not meant for font-smoothing, so they only look like they're supposed to ath their "native" size(8 usually) or doubles of it(16, 32).

[Deleted]

Yes, but the problem is, that at some parts of the interface size 8 (or 10 with the font i'm using) is too small, so i would like to know ,if there are fonts with a native size of maybe 14-16, something like that.

[Crummy]

Hey! I was hoping someone could help me fiddle with some Lua code in Stuf.
Currently I'm only showing health percentage on myself and the target. But I want the numbers to go away if it's at 100, and only display if it's less than that.
What line do I cut out or change?
Thanks!

[tordenflesk]

Yes, but the problem is, that at some parts of the interface size 8 (or 10 with the font i'm using) is too small

If the same font size settings appears different in seperate panels, the addon is infortunately scaling the font WITH the panel, and not seperately

i would like to know ,if there are fonts with a native size of maybe 14-16, something like that.

As I said, they will scale correctly if you double the size. So, if you get a 6pt font, it will scale to 12, 24 and 48. an 8pt will scale to 16, 32 and 64. The biggest I've seen a pixel-font is 9pt, so that would be 9, 18 and 36.
Check here to find one that fits you.

Anyone know what line in quartz LUA (and file) to change to remove the big gap between the casting bar and the edge?

[Deleted]

Im going to have to send a lot of mail from my main to my monk on release day and anytime i can save will be awesome...

So i was wondering if there was any addon out there where you can make up like templates ahead of time to who your going to send it to and what items your going to put into it? Hopefully so i can have multiple ones set up and i can just send them all one after each other when mop hits

[Eiffel]

I use clique and I am somewhat of a novice with it, just do the basic bindings. However, I am leveling a shaman and I was wondering how I can bind totems with clique?

With the weird like "sub-menu" things that blizzard has in the spellbook, I can't seem to get it to work properly. If I open the sub-menu before I open clique, it wont recognize the pop-outs, but if I try and open the sub menu once clique is already open, it just binds "Water totem" instead.

[Faeglendir]

Can weakaura also track things like trinket procces/on use, and weapon enchant procces etc or how long CD's have left (Beserker, 10 sec's in my case).

Thanks for any replies.

It can! These things ale little bit more tricky and I would recommend you this YouTube clip that deals with internal cooldowns specifically.

What's the name of the addon that changes the shape/texture/borders of the hotkeys? like how bartender4 is square shaped but you can make it circle, gradient, etc. Please help
