Stuck: If you can come up a good argument for weapon enchants as a separate anchor it'd help. It already stored it as a table thought, it just didn't create the table until you repositioned it the first time so I had to set a default to fix the other positioning bug.

Strongbow: You can't, if theres a few people who want this then I'll add it in.

Toran, EBB is a huge bulky ass addon that you have to configure with a shitty tooltip menu that dissappears every time you alter a setting. I much prefer this to EBB. This also has the ease of editing the default config in the lua file. To be honest, I'd rather configure an addon in a text file over anything. I'm a perfectionist minimalist though.

Shadowed, thank you for fixing that bug. I really like your addon. Maybe you could have weapon buffs as a separate group anchored to buffs or debuffs as a default? You don't have to complicate your wonderful minimal mod to do this. I can't speak for everyone, but others switching over from EBB might prefer it too.

I found out how to make tempBuffs a separate group by editing the code. It's going to be rough doing this every time theres an update.

I just took a look at the new version. You made position a variable in the group array! Thank you.

Hi!

I love these bars but I have a question.

Is there a way to disable the icons from the bars ?

I have no plans on adding the ability to separate weapon buffs as it adds a bunch of extra complexity for little benefit that I see.

The second part is a bug and I'll get that fixed

I really like how simple these bars are. I'm stuck using elkano's right now. I really want to switch to these, but there are some small details about SBB that bug me:

You can't create a separate group for weapon buffs(tempBuffs) only, it's always inside of the "buffs" group.

Because the debuffs group is anchored to the buffs group, if you have no buffs on you and you gain a debuff, it will not be displayed because there is no "buffs" group to anchor it to. This happens when first loading the mod.

Ack! Not sure whether it was or whether I just got into the wrong version of the mod. Sorry about that!

Sadris, I'll be pushing a version that lets you configure sorting later tonight after I can test it in a raid and make sure it's fine it'll also be on my SVN in an hour or two, the two options will be.

Time Left (Tracking > Until canceled auras > Temporary enchants > Buffs by time left)
Index (Tracking > Temporary enchants > auras ordered by buffIndex, aka order added)

It should be, tracking is always on top, followed by buffs that last until canceled, then temporary weapon enchant, then buffs sorted by time left. I've been meaning to change it and add options in, since the current sorting system is silly/hackish.

I'll add an option for sorting by the indexed order Blizzard provides.

How exactly is the buff sorting done? It doesn't seem to follow a logical pattern at all. It is not alphabetical, nor by duration, nor by time received. Personally I find it very hard to notice important buff gain/losses if they aren't sorted by when they were gained (ie: Inspiration/Drums should be at the bottom of the list)

Very, very nice. Both SBB & ElkBuffBars (EBB) use similar amounts of CPU time themselves, but EBB sucks a large amount of CPU time out of Ace2. This does not do the same with Ace3. Less sucking is always good (well, sometimes).

One minor thing. EBB showed spell ranks as Roman numerals; Simple Buff Bars shows them as standard Arabic (when you select "Show spell rank").

Any chance of implementing an option of Roman for spell ranks or else just change the existing to it? Those using EBB forever will likely find it easier to move over to this then (well, I will at least).
