oUF Debuff Highlight Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: r50-release

by: Ammo [More]

This is an addon that adds Debuff Highlighting to the oUF unitframes.

Whenever a unit has a debuff it will highlight the frame in the debuff color. This can be done either on
the unitframe background or a specially created frame for the task.

To use this in your oUF layout you will need one of the following:

Code:

self.DebuffHighlightBackdrop = true

This will let oUF_DebuffHighlight know to use the backdrop for debuff highlighting. The original color and alpha
of the backdrop and backdrop border will be stored and whenever the unit needs highlighting it will color the
backdrop and backdrop border in corresponding color and set the alpha. When the debuff is gone the original
color and alpha will be restored.

The other option to add Debuff Highlighting is to provide a texture (or other UI type that supports :SetVertexcolor)
on your unit frame.

Code:

local dbh = self:CreateTexture(nil, "OVERLAY")
dbh:SetAllPoints(self)
dbh:SetTexture("SomeKindOfTexturepath")
dbh:SetBlendMode("ADD")
dbh:SetVertexColor(0,0,0,0) -- set alpha to 0 to hide the texture
self.DebuffHighlight = dbh

Be warned, your healthbar is probably the best place to create a full glow texture:

Code:

local dbh = hp:CreateTexture(nil, "OVERLAY")

Because all your unit UI elements will be covering your unitframe (self) most likely.

This frame will now be used with :SetVertexColor() to highlight debuffs.

You can control the alpha of the debuff highlight on backdrop or debuffhighlight frame by setting:

Code:

self.DebuffHighlightAlpha = .5

The default value is .5 for the highlight frame and 1 for the backdrop.

If you only want to highlight debuffs that you can cure:

Code:

self.DebuffHighlightFilter = true

This is off by default.

If you want to use the actual texture of the debuff to show instead of coloring the frame do the following:

Create the self.DebuffHighlight texture and positionit, make sure it's visible (alpha not set to 0):

Code:

local dbh = hp:CreateTexture(nil, "OVERLAY")
dbh:SetWidth(32)
dbh:SetHeight(32)
dbh:SetPoint("CENTER", self, "CENTER")
self.DebuffHighlight = dbh

And set:

Code:

self.DebuffHighlightUseTexture = true

Enjoy

I found the bug that hinders the mod from show stuff when debuffs have no debufftype.

The bug is caused by this condition:

Code:

    if debufftype and not filter or (filter and dispellist[debufftype]) then
      return debufftype, texture
    end

The problem is that if you have no debuff filter on you want textures that are NOT part of a debufftype too.

It should be

Code:

    if texture and not filter or (filter and dispellist[debufftype]) then
      return debufftype, texture
    end

Last change must be done in PostUpdateAura.

Instead of

Code:

  if debuffType then
    local color = DebuffTypeColor[debuffType]

It should be:

Code:

  if texture then
    local color
    if debuffType then
      color = DebuffTypeColor[debuffType]
    else
      color = { r = 1, g = 0, b = 0, a = 1 }
    end

This will allow a red border for debuffs of no special type.

Attro A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 6 File comments: 25 Uploads: 0	I'm struggling and need some guidance. I am currently using oUF_dLx for my unitframes, but I can's seem to get the debuff highlight to work. The one thing that comes to mind is that I'm not placing the code in the right place. I'm currently placing it in the oUF_dLx Lua file named: layout.lua The only way for me to place the code in that file, without causing problems is to put it at the end. I'm under the impression that the oUF_dLx Lua file is the only thing that I modify; then just put the oUF_DebuffHighlight folder into my addons folder. Below are two example that I have tried: -- oUF_DebuffHighlignt local dbh = hp:CreateTexture(nil, "OVERLAY") dbh:SetAllPoints(hp) dbh:SetTexture("Interface\\AddOns\\oUF_dLx\\textures\\combatGlow.tga") dbh:SetBlendMode("BLEND") dbh:SetVertexColor(.85, 0, 1, 0) self.DebuffHighlightAlpha = 1 self.DebuffHighlightFilter = false self.DebuffHighlight = dbh I've also tried this: local dbh = hp:CreateTexture(nil, "OVERLAY") dbh:SetWidth(22) dbh:SetHeight(22) dbh:SetPoint("CENTER", self, "CENTER") dbh:SetBlendMode("BLEND") self.DebuffHighlightUseTexture = true self.DebuffHighlightFilter = false self.DebuffHighlight = dbh Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

You'd need a specific written addon for that, this module reuses the blizzard combat feedback information, which does not provide that information.
Try oUF_Indicators or something.

Elariah Premium Member Forum posts: 18 File comments: 70 Uploads: 0	Hi, thanks anyway. I duplicated the addon, did a search replace on "DebuffHighlight" for "HOTHightlight" and then just changed your UnitAura's checking to only check for specific spells, and force a single color. I then just added it to my layout, so I use 1 overlay texture for debuffs, and a second one (that doesn't overlap with the debuff one) for the HOT one. :-) Thanks for this addon though. ^_^
