This addon is not intended to show your current power level. It is used for displaying the UnitPowerBarAlt information. This is blizzards informational display used for various boss encounters such as the Stone Guards within MV or the game timers you see while enjoying the darkmoon fair.

Oh ok, absolutely my fail... I thought that it also works with the own powerbar.

It seems you are correct. I assume the color came out white? Instead of going by name and directly looking for an unlocalized name, I'll do a check for texture:

Lua Code:

local path = "Interface\\UNITPOWERBARALT\\"
local blizzColors = {
    [path.."StoneGuardAmethyst_Horizontal_Fill"] = {
        r = 0.50,
        g = 0.45,
        b = 0.75,
    },
    [path.."StoneGuardCobalt_Horizontal_Fill"] = {
        r = 0.35,
        g = 0.66,
        b = 0.78,
    },
    [path.."StoneGuardJade_Horizontal_Fill"] = {
        r = 0.48,
        g = 0.75,
        b = 0.47,
    },
    [path.."StoneGuardJasper_Horizontal_Fill"] = {
        r = 0.72,
        g = 0.48,
        b = 0.48,
    }
}

Also, to make it easy on users, I'll be keeping it 'blizzard' coloring and not have to worry about particular bosses and custom coloring.

Yeah it was white, I had to go back to using my modifed mod instead. Glad I tested your new version in LFR first before doing heroic

I updated my post below. I'd rather have a list of all the alt action bars, then be able to set a color to each one. But if that's too complicated then just searching a substring in the alt text would be best.

I can access the Blizzard statusbar colors with their function they provide:

Lua Code:

local texture, r, g, b = UnitAlternatePowerTextureInfo(unit,textureIndex,[timerFrameIndex])

Being able to set a custom color per bar with every bar listed is not doable however. You can now enable 'Blizzard coloring' for statusbars but you must disable class coloring and not use the color fade option (obviously).

/spb > Bar Settings > Statusbar > Coloring Method

On the stone guardians fight, the color of the bar is important. Came up with a simple way to do this. Have a lookup table for the name. So if powerbar text has a certain name, it looks the name up in a table then applies a color. I did some looking, and I think there is a table of all the bars or a way to build a table. This way you could just have a list, and put in an override color for the bars you want. For now I'm going to hack the mod to show the color for the guardians. I added this function, but checking for exact text wouldn't be a good idea as an option, but searching for a substring would. Code: local function SetColorBasedOnText() local Label = select(10,UnitAlternatePowerInfo('player')) local r, g, b = 0, 0, 0 if Label == 'Jade Petrification' then -- green r, g, b = 0, 1, 0 elseif Label == 'Jasper Petrification' then -- red r, g, b = 1, 0, 0 elseif Label == 'Amethyst Petrification' then -- purple r, g, b = 1, 0, 1 elseif Label == 'Cobalt Petrification' then -- blue r, g, b = 0, 0, 1 end SimplePowerBarStatus:SetStatusBarColor(r, g, b) end Last edited by galvin : 10-14-12 at 07:00 PM.

I tried doing this my self, but the bar wouldn't move vertically.

No, I've been reworking this addon a lot and I'll be providing a way to use the addon or switch to the default blizzard frames and place them where you'd like.
