    the only time the bar is shown is when it is unlocked. when I lock it in position it fails to appear even when in combat.

    thank you

    This power bar is for the blizzard Alternate Power only. Was there a particular fight or event it wasn't showing for that you were expecting it to?

    I've used it for 2 weeks before I uploaded it and I had no issues.

    This addon is designed to replace what would be the "Sound Bar" for Atramedes, or the "Corruption Bar" for Cho'gall, things like that.

    I'm sure you've figured that out by now :P, but I though I'd clarify it a bit.

    Are you getting any errors? Does this occur when it's the only addon enabled?

    During a Cho'gall fight earlier, I noticed that even though the addon hid the blizzard bar, the tooltip that appears when you mouse over the blizz power bar still appears and blocks some of my buttons on nUI's action bars. Any solutions to this?

    Unless nUI has some addon for AlternatePower, I don't see how that's possible.

    The blizzard power bar doesn't have any clickability or a tooltip.

    Edit, I'm dumb.

    Fixed in v2.4

    nUI does not have anything that replaces the alternatepower. Thank you for the fix though.

    is it possible to change the strata of the bar ? I want it on top of my broker bar when needed. Thanks.

    edit: added this -> SimplePowerBarBG:SetFrameStrata("HIGH") but can't test it yet

    I downloaded the one from curse and first thing I do is load this up in scite and find some variables that are global. This mod actually works in beta, I like it, but I don't like the globals.

    in core.lua you have
    Code:
    function SimplePowerBar:CreatePowerBar()
	db = self.db.profile
	local frame = self.frame
	local SimplePowerBarBG = CreateFrame("Frame", "SimplePowerBarBG", frame)
	SimplePowerBarBG:SetFrameStrata(db.frameStrata)
	SimplePowerBarBG:SetFrameLevel(db.frameLevel)
	SimplePowerBarBG:SetHeight(db.height)
	SimplePowerBarBG:SetWidth(db.width)
	SimplePowerBarBG:SetPoint("CENTER",UIParent,"CENTER", db.x, db.y)
	SimplePowerBarBG:SetBackdrop({
		bgFile = db.PanelTex, 
		edgeFile = db.PanelTex, 
		tile = false, tileSize = 0, edgeSize = db.borderSize, 
		insets = { left = db.borderInset, right = db.borderInset, top = db.borderInset, bottom = db.borderInset}
	})
	
	SimplePowerBarBG:SetMovable(true)
	SimplePowerBarBG:SetClampedToScreen(true)
	SimplePowerBarBG:SetUserPlaced(true)
	
	local SimplePowerBarLock = SimplePowerBarBG:CreateTexture("SimplePowerBarLock","OVERLAY",nil)
	SimplePowerBarLock:SetTexture("Interface\\GLUES\\CharacterSelect\\Glues-AddOn-Icons")
	SimplePowerBarLock:SetWidth(8)
	SimplePowerBarLock:SetHeight(8)	
	SimplePowerBarLock:SetTexCoord(0.25,0.48,0,1)
	SimplePowerBarLock:SetAlpha(1)
	SimplePowerBarLock:SetPoint("CENTER",SimplePowerBarBG,"TOPRIGHT")
	
	local SimplePowerBarStatus = CreateFrame("StatusBar", "SimplePowerBarStatus", SimplePowerBarBG)
	SimplePowerBarStatus:SetPoint("TOPLEFT", SimplePowerBarBG, "TOPLEFT", 1, -1)
	SimplePowerBarStatus:SetPoint("BOTTOMRIGHT", SimplePowerBarBG, "BOTTOMRIGHT", -1, 1)	
		
	local SimplePowerBarText = SimplePowerBarStatus:CreateFontString("SimplePowerBarText", "OVERLAY")
		
	local SimplePowerBarLabel = SimplePowerBarStatus:CreateFontString("SimplePowerBarLabel", "OVERLAY")
end
    These two lines
    local SimplePowerBarText = SimplePowerBarStatus:CreateFontString("SimplePowerBarText", "OVERLAY")

    local SimplePowerBarLabel = SimplePowerBarStatus:CreateFontString("SimplePowerBarLabel", "OVERLAY")


    Problem is these don't become local for the rest of the addon. When you define a local value inside a function, the rest of the addon won't see it. For now I can just declare these two variables at the top of the addon then change those two lines to take the "local" out.

    I know you're still around so hopefully you can do a pass on it to clean it up. I'm sure they'll be plenty of raid encounters using the power bar.

    In any addon the only things that should be global blizzard UI stuff. Globals are slower than upvalues too. And can risk having another mod conflict.

    Anyway good job with the addon, wish I found it sooner.
