Alpha coloring

Really not sure how other people handle thi, but i cannot deal with the alpha coloring, when you have a pack of mobs. It's really really difficult to see the names of any of the other mobs, not being targetted. Even more so, in you release build. I had to modify the font values to be able to see anything in the heat of battle, but it's not enough with the alpha still.

How would i control that, exactly? Or is this a builtin Blizz thing? I was able to get it under control with Aloft, but there's so little going on here, it's hard for me to differentiate.

Thanks, anyway.

Regards.

Yes it is but i won't do that in the release version.

About the cast bar i've found a bug, sometimes if the unit leaves your screen then comes back, its castbar will/may have a odd behavior, i'll look into it as soon as i can. If it's too annoying i can only suggest you to disable the castbar in Blizzard's options.
