Is there a way to show your targets buffs, specifically debuffs, as a numered timer? Right now there's a swirly fade that shows it. But I'd like to see a countdown with numbers. Like, when I throw a serpent sting on, I'd like to see the seconds tick down, rather than the swirl clock fade look. It'll help me figure when I need to throw another serpent sting out.

Minor, but you have some commenting issues in the config file. It appears as:

when, as far as I can tell, it should appear as:

It was a really poorly formed compliment. Your code is concise and readable. Ergo I can learn from it. Most of the Debuff duration Addons are either not concise or don't work on the PTR. I'm trying to add Disease durations to my addon for Cata. http://www.wowinterface.com/download...-RunePack.html

Is there anything this simple for Target Debuff duration? I'm asking because I'm trying to add the feature to my own addon and need some tutorial code that doesn't include libraries.

@kbc8090:

Was that in responce to me? Is that to stop font scaling?
Sorry, I'm confused :P

Oh nm...I see what you are referring to now - carry on!

From what I can tell I got it working.

Added this under local bindings:
local timers = {}

Added this function:
local function HideTimer(self)
local timer = timers[self]
if timer then
timer:Hide()
end
end

Then added this under the hooksecurefunc:
if cd.noCooldownCount then
HideTimer(self)
elseif start > 0 and duration > MIN_DURATION then



Tested in Option House and it's using the same cpu as it was before, maxing out around 0.350 cpu/sec, whatever that means. Consequently TullaRange is one of my most cpu intensive mods maxing out around 1.2. It's better than using ractionbar range checking every .5 seconds for twice the cpu power though

Looks almost exactly like what I did for SpellWatchLite.

I noticed this line in the code:

OmniCC = OmniCC or true --hack to work around detection from other addons for OmniCC

There is an option in Stuf Unit Frames that allow them to ignore OmniCC, which I have checked for my debuffs on my playerframe, however it is not working. I looked in the code and I'm somewhat affluent with LUA coding but I'm not really sure what's going on.

I think I figured it out - its working for me anyways with my font (pixel) set at 10 and my Filger set at 50 icon size my font stays the same size 10 =)

Only thing I cant figure out is the smaller sizes as in Dominos action buttons. The font is ok but not size 10 as the buttons are smaller which may not be a bad thing cause the font may overlap off the edges of the buttons if the font was size 10 normal.

Anyways, for anyone else, here with what I changed with commenting out the FONT_SIZE at the top of the page ( may not have needed to do that but whatevers). Delete the entire code:

--adjust font size whenever the timer's parent size changes
--hide if it gets too tiny
local function Timer_OnSizeChanged(self, width, height)
local fontScale = round(width) / ICON_SIZE
if fontScale == self.fontScale then
return
end

self.fontScale = fontScale
if fontScale < MIN_SCALE then
self:Hide()
else
self.text:SetFont(FONT_FACE, fontScale * FONT_SIZE, 'OUTLINE')
self.text:SetShadowColor(0, 0, 0, 0.8)
self.text:SetShadowOffset(1, -1)
if self.enabled then
Timer_ForceUpdate(self)
end
end
end


AND REPLACE WITH THIS entire code copy:


-- DOES NOT adjust font size whenever the timer's parent size changes
--hide if it gets too tiny

local function Timer_OnSizeChanged(self, width, height)
local fontScale = 1

self.fontScale = fontScale
self.text:SetFont(FONT_FACE, 10, 'OUTLINEMONOCHROME')
self.text:SetShadowColor(0, 0, 0, 0.8)
self.text:SetShadowOffset(1, -1)
if self.enabled then
Timer_ForceUpdate(self)
end
end


Hope this helps anyone and thank you Tull for such fabulous works

/cheers

I tried that but .. what about this line?

Timer_OnSizeChanged(timer, scaler:GetSize())
scaler:SetScript('OnSizeChanged', function(self, ...) Timer_OnSizeChanged(timer, ...) end)

cd.timer = timer
return timer
end

Just comment it out but then it doesnt work at all - and now this line

if timer.fontScale >= MIN_SCALE then timer:Show() end
--stop timer
else
local timer = cd.timer
if timer then
Timer_Stop(timer)
end

So sorry and dont make a mess for you to change for me...I can wait for the config you are talking about

--hide if it gets too tiny
local function Timer_OnSizeChanged(self, width, height)
self.text:SetFont(FONT_FACE, (fontScale * FONT_SIZE)*1.4, 'OUTLINEMONOCHROME')
self.text:SetShadowColor(0, 0, 0, 0.8)
self.text:SetShadowOffset(1, -1)
if self.enabled then
Timer_ForceUpdate(self)
end
end
end


Also when I change (just actually delete you code for scale and such) this does nothing ><

I* can follow code somewhat and tried to copy font settings from other addons (Lyn and Nins code) but I find even though they are all LUA files...you guys speak differently the language :P (if you catch my drift?)

thanks for any attention, much appreciated
