Is there anyway to track my own debuff only?

Thank You Will have to update all auras now.

I'm creating a WeakAura that should only trigger during the Blackhand fight.

Is it sufficient to simply add a custom trigger with the trigger:

function ()
    if (UnitName("boss1") == "Blackhand") then
        return true;
    else
        return false;
    end;
end

And for untrigger:

function ()
    if (UnitName("boss1") ~= "Blackhand") then
        return true;
    else
        return false;
    end;
end

in addition to the actual triggers that make the aura useful?

[SlippyCheeze]

Almost certainly, that is sufficient. Are you having trouble with it? (IIRC, the tanks don't displace his unit ID or anything, which is the only thing I would be concerned about in some other fights, for adds and stuff, with this approach.)

Don't forget to set it to "and" triggering rather than "or", which I believe is the default.

Haven't had a chance to try it yet and probably won't til the next time my guild runs the encounter; I just wanted to ensure that it should work before the actual attempts. I'm relatively sure that the siege engines are boss2/boss3/omghowdoyouhavethree, yeah.

Thanks for giving it a look.

[SlippyCheeze]

Sorry if Noob Question but how to display friendly Name places above the Characters but not pets/totems?

It is almost certainly set in the Blizzard options, not the addon options -- all the nameplate things can restyle the nameplates that Blizzard places, but they can't really relocate them or anything, so they depend on the appropriate Blizzard options being turned on.

You can make a custom trigger that won't have any problems with localization or bosses "hiding" for certain phases or whatever.
They only have to listen to two events, ENCOUNTER_START and ENCOUNTER_END.
Trigger:

function(event, encounterID, encounterName, difficultyID, raidSize)
    return event == "ENCOUNTER_START" and encounterID == 1704
end

Untrigger:

function(event, encounterID, encounterName, difficultyID, raidSize, ...)
    return event == "ENCOUNTER_END" and encounterID == 1704
end

The encounterID 1704 is Blackhands and can obviously be replaced with different IDs, depending on the encounter that the aura is intended for.

Oh, that's a handy way of doing it, thanks! I did look at the LUA for Angry Boss Reminders, since it detects which boss you're on, and noticed all the encounter IDs, but wasn't sure how to use them in a trigger.

Appreciate the tip.

I got two TellMeWhen-related questions:

1. Is it possible to set up TMW to monitor Disrupting Roar on Hanz & Frans? I've seen numerous threads on people using WeakAuras to track this, but since I'm using TMW for everything else and I'm not keen on getting into WA just for this.

2. Is it possible to change the font for spell cooldowns in TellMeWhen, and if so, how? I managed to change the font for stacks displayed in TMW, but can't find a place where I could change spell cooldown font.

Thanks in advance!

i'm using pitbull unit frames and when im fighting mobs with long names my health text keeps cutting off like this here.

is there a way i can set it so instead the name of the mob gets cut off instead of the health?
I would just like it to show the percentage and the shortened remaining healthpool like this

There should be a truncate DogTag. You can use it on your target's name to limit the field to x number of characters, which will give the health numbers some room to breathe.

Got it, thank you very much!

Pitbull doesn't use libDogTag any more, it uses "luatexts", but the same principal applies, I believe. I expect they have some documentation somewhere about how to do this. (Because it would be a super-common desire.)

The versions on both Curse and WowAce have DogTag support still. WowAce updated like two weeks ago.

Hello,

I'm looking for an addon, that automatically show/hide friendly player names (the ones above heads) based on current zone. I'd like to see friendly player names in cities but not in raids i.e.

thx
