Grid

Version: 5.4.1.1628

by: Phanx, Greltok, Pastamancer

Grid is a compact and highly configurable party/raid unit frame addon.

Please do not use the Bug/Feature buttons to the right, or send me PMs asking for help, reporting bugs, or requesting features. Use the links below instead!

The compact grid of units lets you select a group member quickly, while keeping a good overview of the whole group. It shows as much information as possible without overloading you. It allows you to customize what information you see, and how you see it. It works in both party and raid groups, and supports pets and vehicles.

Want more features? The Grid core tries to include only features which are generally useful for all classes and roles, but makes it easy to add new features with a simple plugin API for developers. Over 75 third-party plugins are already available!

Type “/grid” for options, or right-click the minimap button, DataBroker launcher, or Grid frame tab.

✻ Need Help?

IMPORTANT: If you are using any version of Grid other than the one posted on this page — such as an alpha version from WowAce — please do not post on this page about any problems you encounter with it. Alpha versions are development snapshots, are not officially supported, and may be buggy or broken, delete your settings, or crash your game. The release (and sometimes beta) versions posted to WoWInterface.com and Curse.com are actually tested.

✤ Found a bug?
Submit a bug report to let us know about the problem so we can fix it!

✤ Problem with a plugin?
Contact the plugin’s author for help. The Grid team cannot provide support for third-party plugins.

✤ Have a suggestion?
Feel free to tell us about your idea, but please make sure there isn’t already a plugin that adds the feature you’re looking for first!

✤ Questions? Comments?
Post a comment on this page, or post in our WowAce forum thread.

✻ Language Support

Grid is compatible with English, Deutsch, Español, Français, Italiano, Português, Русский, 한국어, 简体中文, and 繁體中文 game clients.

Grid is translated into English, Deutsch, Español, Français, Italiano (partial), Português, Русский, 한국어, 简体中文, and 繁體中文.

To add or update translations for any language, enter them on the WowAce project page. New and updated translations will be automatically included in the next version of Grid!

Hint: The WowAce interface for adding translations is rather cumbersome. To make the process easier, you can use the Export function on WowAce, copy the exported data into Notepad, fill in your translations, and then paste the new data back into the system using the Import function.

✻ Credits

I play a Shaman Healer, and I like to know right away who the tank is, without having to ask in chat, so I can put Focus on him/her. Thanks.

FYI, if you click on the link in the description that says “third-party plugins” and search on the page for “role” those are the first and second matches. __________________ ♫ Author/maintainer of Grid, PhanxChat, ShieldsUp, and many more.

arisoh A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 1 Uploads: 0	How do I make it so only certain debuffs show up on the middle icon. Specifically, I tank Tsulong, I want to see only when Shadow Breath is on myself or my co-tank? What seems to happen is the stacking debuff Dread Shadows overwrites it. So how do I make Dread Shadows not show up? Thanks

12-21-12, 05:19 PM
Phanx A Pyroguard Emberseer Forum posts: 3574 File comments: 1836 Uploads: 37	I'm not really sure what you're asking. If you're seeing the Dread Shadows debuff status show up on the Center Icon indicator, that means you assigned the Dread Shadows debuff status to the Center Icon indicator. If you don't want it to appear on that indicator, just un-assign it. Grid > Indicators > Center Icon > Uncheck "Debuff: Dread Shadows". If you're using a third-party plugin to provide statuses for those debuffs, instead of just adding them in the standard Grid > Status > Auras menu, then you'll need to refer to the plugin's documentation and/or ask the plugin's author for help. __________________ ♫ Author/maintainer of Grid, PhanxChat, ShieldsUp, and many more.

Rusken A Theradrim Guardian Forum posts: 61 File comments: 79 Uploads: 2	Hi, i wonder if there is any way to change the background of the units in my raid?

Can't seem to find anything about this in status/health tho. http://i.imgur.com/7U8Qu.jpg Last edited by Rusken : 01-07-13 at 04:51 PM.

Phanx A Pyroguard Emberseer Forum posts: 3574 File comments: 1836 Uploads: 37	By default, the background color is 20% of the foreground color, which is controlled by the "Unit Health" status color (unless you've enabled the "Health Bar Color" indicator and assigned some other status to it). If you check "Invert bar colors" in the Frame options panel, then the "Unit Health" status color controls the background color instead, and the foreground color is 20% of the background color. If you want the background to be lighter than the foreground, then uncheck "Invert bar colors" and set the "Unit Health" status color to a brighter version of the color you want for the foreground. If you want a totally different color for the background, you will need to use a plugin that adds that feature or edit Grid's code yourself. __________________ ♫ Author/maintainer of Grid, PhanxChat, ShieldsUp, and many more.

Hey Phanx. I keep getting this annoying lua error with grid when I try changing Profiles in a raid while out of combat. I can understand Grid acting up if you tried changing profiles while in combat but that's not the case. I need to change my Grid Profile for many reasons when I enter a raid such as to change to my 40 Player raid set-up as I like smaller raid frames etc. Some times this lua error doesn't occur if I switch very early in the raid group which is good but other times if I've been in the raid for 5 minutes for example then it can bug out.

This is the lua error I get:

Code:

Mayron A Flamescale Wyrmkin Forum posts: 131 File comments: 790 Uploads: 4	Hi again, my problem with the Grid frames showing when switching profiles is still happening and now after much more testing and experimenting, I can confirm that it is not a plugin issue. When I posted about this problem on wowace I was unsure as the problem randomly seemed to fix itself but this didn't last for long. It can be random at times but mostly it always happens. The problem occurs with no plugins enabled and when I use the Profile tab in the Grid config menu like you are meant to. I know many other people who are having this issue too. I will post this on wowace but for now I have one question. As I said before I use a KgPanel which changes many profiels for me including Grid and I have been experimenting with trying out a script to do "GridLayoutFrame:Hide()" if I am not in a Group and "GridLayoutFrame:Show()" if I am. I have added it with the KgPanel OnClick script section and OnLoad but both do not seem to work. It only works if I add the following on the OnUpdate script: Code: if IsInGroup() then GridLayoutFrame:Show() else GridLayoutFrame:Hide() end The problem with this though is that I like to change the "Solo" Layout of Grid from none to 25 Player so that I can configure the frames. I was wondering if there was something I could add to this so that if Solo is set to anything else but none the "GridLayoutFrame:Hide()" will not take affect. Sorry if this seems very long and I hope it is easy to understand. Thank you so much for your time and development towards this fantastic addon!

It won't work in the OnClick because changing the profile isn't an instantaneous action. When you issue the "change profile" command, that command goes to AceDB, which just does some metatable stuff and fires a callback. The rest of your OnClick script finishes executing before any of the functions registered to handle that callback get executed, including the functions in Grid that actually updates Grid's appearance to reflect the settings in the new profile.

What about this? Adding the code to OnUpdate as that works but it just wont let me have them showing on Solo even if I change the Grid settings on Solo from none to something else. Is there something I can add which would fix this? Like some code that works out if solo is set to anything else besides none and then it skips the "GridLayoutFrame:Hide()" function?
