Note: This is a beta release. Everything that's completed should be stable, but there's a very limited set of configuration options, and I've not implemented buff filtering quite yet. Also, the description is out of date :P
Sage is a minimalistic, lightweight unit frame replacement designed to require minimal configuration. If you're looking for a set of unit frames with giant 3D models, or frames that are infinitely configurable, then Sage is not for you. If you're looking for a set of functional frames that "just work", then welcome home
Included Frames
Player, Target, Target of Target, Party, Pet, and Focus
Features
Low memory and CPU usage and a modular design
Simple Configuration
Highly Visible Debuffs: For friendly units debuffs are enlarged and displayed to the right. Healthbars are also set to change color whenever a friendly unit is debuffed.
Multiple styles for statusbar text
Range Checking for the Party Frames: Party frames can be set to fade out when out of range of a selected spell
Support for Clique, MobHealth, MobHealth3, and SharedMedia
Using Sage
Configuration
To bring up the options menu, type /sage or /sg
Docking: With sticky bars enabled, its possible to dock one frame to another by simply dragging next to the frame you wish to stick it to
Scaling: When unlocked, frames can be scaled by simply dragging its bottom right corner. Hold shift when dragging to scale all frames stuck to the one you're scaling
Disabling: You can disable a frame by disabling its addon in the Addons menu
Player Frame
The player frame displays your name, level, health, mana, pvp status, master loot status, group leader status, raid target icon, and optionally your experience or reputation
In a raid, your level display changes to show what raid group you are in
Your name's color changes based on your combat and resting status. Blue means you are resting, red means you are in combat
To toggle between watching reputation or experience, open the character menu (c by default) go to your reputation tab. To watch reputation, click on a faction and check the option to watch reputation. Uncheck it to go back to watching your experience
Target Frame
The target frame displays your target's name, level, health, mana, and raid target icon.
If you're targeting a unit controlled by a player, the target frame will display that unit's class, else the frame will display that unit's classification (humanoid, beast, etc), and elite status
The color of the name of your target is based on a large amount of conditions, and is similar to the colors of the Blizzard target frame
Combo points are displayed to the left of the frame. By default, combo points are displayed in a style similar to Tony Hawk games: Spelling out combo means you have a max amount of combo points
For friendly units, buffs are displayed at the bottom of the frame, with debuffs on the side. For enemy units, the arrangement is reversed
When your target starts casting a spell, a casting bar will appear in the unit classification area. It'll give you an icon of what the target is casting, and tell you how long until the spell completes
The Target of Target Frame
The target of target frame displays the same amount of information as your target frame, minus buffs, debuffs, and mana, though if you have health bar debuff coloring on, you'll still be able to see if your target of target is debuffed
The Focus Frame
The focus unit was added by Blizzard in 2.0.1. Its basically a secondary target you manually set and unset
Sage's Focus frame displays the same amount of information as the target frame
To set a unit as your focus, type /focus, and to clear it, type /clearfocus
You can setup key bindings for setting and clearing your focus in the key bindings menu (ESC, Keybindings)
The Pet Frame
The pet frame displays about the same amount of information as the player frame
Buffs are displayed at the bottom of the frame, debuffs to the right
For hunters, a happiness indicator is displayed to the right of the frame. It functions exactly like the blizzard provided one
Your pet's combat status is displayed by the color of your pet's name. Red means its in combat, white that its not
The Party Frames
Party frames show the standard amount of information as the other frames
Buffs are displayed below the frame, debuffs to the right
The color of the name of a member of your party signifies what class it is. The colors are the same as the ones used by the raid frames. In addition, if the given party member has aggro, their name will turn red
If one of your party members has a pet, a health bar for that pet will show up under the member's mana bar
You can set whether to show the party frame in a raid or not via the options menu
You can set what spell to use for range checking via the options menu

Optional Files - Sage UnitFrames
Sorry, there are currently no optional files available.
Are buffs still not supposed to display correctly as mentioned in the change log? I don't have any of the "show only buffs/debuffs I've cast" options selected, but I'm still not seeing buffs that other players cast on themselves on any of the frames.
Originally posted by joshwill80 Did not know you could create your own Sage frames. How does that work? Can I do that in-game or is that something that has to be done via lua?
Its a lua thing, you'd basically need to replicate Sage Frames.
Originally posted by joshwill80 Any chance of implementing these simple features Tuller?
1. Yellow border around the player frame when resting
2. Options to make the focus frame more simple and compact. I would like to have a focus frame that is nothing but a health bar and name. I don't really need to see buffs/debuffs for the focus frame. Maybe an option to make it display like the ToT frame would work well?
Your name changes to blue when resting right now. I don't intend on adding a border.
For #2, that's probably a situation where you'd want to build your own frame using Sage.

Really like this addon because its so clean!
But its some things I´m wonder over.
*When its more then one person in the party so do the buffs hide from one of the party member sometimes.
*Even if I have cross out the "color health when debuffed" so are they colored.
*Want to change size on the target buff / debuffs
*Some "in combat" thing insted of when you got aggro only.
*Add % on target, me and party, ( has not tested in raid ) but its nothing important.
