OnScreenHealth

Version: 5.3.0.1

by: Dridzt, Phanx

OnScreenHealth

OnScreenHealth provides simple text displays of health and power for you, your vehicle, your pet, and your target.

It additionally shows your combat state, combo points on your target, your target’s target’s name, and your class’s secondary resource (such as Holy Power).

Type “/osh” to open the options panel, or browse to it in the standard Interface Options window.

Not completed

Localization (you can help by visiting the link and submitting translations for your language)

Changes

WoW API updates for MoP (GetSpecialization etc)
Support for all secondary resources.
combo points, runes, chi, eclipse, holy power, shadow orbs, soul shards|burning embers|demonic fury
Support for ClassColors.
Switch from event based processing to update based processing, with adjustable throttle.
Some optimization pending but (a) with Blizzard's move to predictive hp / power updates,
events don't fire half as often as needed for smooth updates (b) some resources don't fire UNIT_POWER
or other power related events at all (eclipse, soul shards|embers|fury, shadow orbs etc)

Forum posts: 5603 File comments: 2302 Uploads: 48	@Tovort: I handed it off to Dridzt long ago, but since it's been 5 years since his last update, I guess I have just as much authority at this point... I'd say go for it. Definitely yes on the GitHub fork, and if you're interested in continuing your work on it, send Dridzt a PM asking to be added as an author so you can upload release versions for other people to download. According to his user profile he was last online 3 days ago, so you should get a fairly prompt reply. I haven't played WoW in about two years now, and have no plans to do anything further with OnScreenHealth myself. __________________ Author/maintainer of Grid, PhanxChat, oUF_Phanx, and many more.

Willowy A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 1 File comments: 39 Uploads: 0	Update possible? Any chance you've been able to look at this one, Phanx? I finally got around to this expansion, and I really miss this particular mod . I can somewhat recreate function with Weak Aura 2, but this mod was very simple and efficient to use, and did things I haven't figured out how to replicate yet. Very useful for "heads-up" stats without blocking the playing field. Thanks! Edit: I actually figured out how to duplicate just about all in Weak Aura, so thanks anyways!

Don't take this as a hard promise, but I might look and see how much work actually needs to be done after I've finished updating all my current addons. I don't even have (or want) an active subscription to actually play the game anymore, but the addon programming is still fun.

Mook A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 6 File comments: 128 Uploads: 1	Rats :( Is Legion finally the end of this incredibly useful AddOn? That would be disappointing. Having these giant Me/Target numbers pop up only when there's combat has allowed me to move everything else far to the sides of the screen and out of the way. Hope I can keep doing that soon (Pack your bags! We're on a guilt trip!)

Rippy A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 8 Uploads: 0	Manually change frame strata Still no in-game option to change the strata but as a workaround you can go into the lua file and do a ctrl+f for "SetFrameStrata" and change it from ("BACKGROUND") to ("HIGH"). There are 3 or 4 of them. Save the file and reload. That is how I got the health text to sit over top of the oUF_Phanx frames. Last edited by Rippy : 04-01-13 at 08:40 AM.

Dridzt A Pyroguard Emberseer Forum posts: 1251 File comments: 781 Uploads: 82	My reluctance to add this, is I can only see "some" usefulness in a pvp setting. I'd rather OSH remains generic and not suffer feature creep from trying to branch out to too many specific use cases. That said if someone makes a good case as to how this could be useful in a general setting I could reconsider. On a more general note, as it stands the only items on my todo list at the moment are: - the strata configuration option. - ability to position the different texts more freely and not only relative to screen center (I can see the HUD-like concept but it bothers me that I can't place fx the target text anywhere I want relative to player text) - check on VyneBono's issue with the slider editboxes not accepting precise increments (since I'm going to be messing with positioning anyway) Despite I don't expect any of that to be too time consuming or difficult to implement, they're at a low priority atm while I work on other addons (and my leveling ), since OSH has no outstanding issues.

This is something I (the original author) always declined to add, as I felt it was outside the scope of what this addon is meant to do. OnScreenHealth was never intended to replace your unit frames. It was suposed to -- as the name might imply -- provide an accessible but non-intrusive display of your and your target's health. You should always know what you are targeting, without needing the name in giant text across the middle of your screen. If you are randomly targeting things without looking at your unit frames, you should probably consider changing your playstyle.

Of course, Dridzt (the current author) may feel differently about what the addon is supposed to do, but don't get your hopes up.

Thanks!

EDIT: Just found out how. Is there a way so that I can position x and y exactly and not in the increments it currently has, though?

You should be able to type in the editbox that's part of the slider control directly instead of using the mouse to drag the slider itself.
Slider has a specific step (don't remember exact number atm) but editbox will accept precise numbers.

Mine automatically sets it back to a different increment instead of allowing specified numbers. It rounds up to the nearest 25 or so.

Also, my fix for the strata issue was only a temporary one. It keeps sliding back beneath the other UI things and I have to redo it every time. Is there a different fix aside from manually changing the strata by using this code?

/run OnScreenHealthPlayerFrame:SetFrameStrata("MEDIUM")

I'll try to put an option in for the strata for next release.

About your other issue, are you sure you're pressing <Enter> after typing into the editbox?

Yeah. The instant I hit enter it rounds my number to it's nearest setting instead.
