Grid  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 8.0.1.1
by: Phanx [More]

Grid has been continued as Plexus by Doadin. Use that instead; Grid has not been updated since 2018 and will not be updated in the future.

Grid is a compact and highly configurable party/raid unit frame addon.
The compact grid of unit frames 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.

Language Support
Grid is compatible with all World of Warcraft localizations. It is currently translated into English, Deutsch, Español, Français, Italiano, 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 quite cumbersome. To make the process easier, you can use the Export function on WowAce, copy the exported data into your text editor, fill in your translations, and then paste them back into WowAce using the Import function.
Credits
Grid was originally conceived and written by Maia and Pastamancer in late 2006. Phanx has been the primary developer since late 2009. Jerry wrote the original pet support code. Mikk designed the icon. jlam added some advanced options for auras. Greltok has helped a lot with bugfixing. Finally, lots of people have contributed translations!

Pretty much the only thing I understood from your punctuation-free wall of text is that you are using LUI and something doesn't work. The Grid team can only provide support for Grid itself, so if you want us to spend time trying to troubleshoot your problem, you will need to make sure that the problem still occurs when Grid is the only addon enabled. Follow the directions on the download page under the large orange heading "How to report a bug in Grid", and if the problem is not solved, submit a proper bug report.

Re: grid role

Re: groups by role

Sort of. You can't filter layout groups by role (see SecureGroupHeaders.lua for a full list of allowed filtering/sorting options), but you can:

a) Mark tanks using the Main Tank status in the raid panel, and use one of the layouts that shows tanks separately. Doesn't help with healers, though.

b) Show everyone in a single layout group, and sort it first by role, then by name. This would require editing an existing layout's code, or writing a new one.

c) Filter layout groups by name, and have another addon update the name lists as roles change. This would require editing an existing plugin, or writing a new one.

One of the existing layout plugins may be relevant, but if not, you could post a request on the forums here or on the WowAce forums. I don't have time to write any code for you.

Re: Tranquility

Assigning the buff to the Center Icon indicator on the Status options tab, and enabling the Icon Stack Count on the Frame options tab, should work. If not, make sure you typed the buff name exactly as it appears in the tooltip. If you've double-checked all of those things and it still isn't working, follow the instructions on the main page for reporting a bug, and attach your Grid saved variables file to your ticket.

Your post is pretty much useless as it stands. Which indicator(s) have you assigned the Out Of Range status to? Are any other statuses exhibiting similar behavior? If so, which ones, and which indicator(s) are they assigned to? Does the problem occur when all other addons are disabled? Does the problem occur after you've switched to a new Grid profile with default settings? Since the problem is visible, screenshots would also be useful.

Grid options > Indicators tab > Border > check "Your Target". It's enabled by default, so you already found it once to turn it off.

No. Blinking is one of the most annoying UI behaviors imaginable. Whatever you're trying to do is either unnecessary, or can be better accomplished through some other means.

Hi everyone,

I'm new to using Grid, but have heard great things about it and want to give it a try. Is there a Grid module that will allow me to have Druid HoT icons rather than colored dots/text? If I want to visually see HoT icons (stacks and countdown), are my other main options limited to VuhDo and Healbot? Thanks for your help.

I'm a priest, can you suggest a better way to notify that Renew, or Weakened Soul is about to fade from a target? I don't want icons covering up the whole middle for something like that...A progress bar like X-Perl, or blinking indicators would be perfect.

Since neither of those things stack, I would argue that knowing exactly when they are going to expire is not nearly important enough to add the UI clutter required to convey that information. Every priest I've ever talked to in any of my raiding guilds over the years has agreed with this position.

If you really think you need to know when your non-stacking buffs are expiring, there are a large number of HoT-specific plugins that can be configured to change color or do something else when a buff is about to expire.

Assign the statuses for your HoTs to the center icon indicator, and check that the center icon cooldown and stack text options are enabled (they are enabled by default). Or, look at any of the dozen or so plugins that either add more icon indicators, or add special statuses that track your HoTs in different ways.

thanks for the reply Phanx. tried, but when i clicked on my "box" or myself to test, there is still no colour on the border still.

i even Grid > Layout and change the border colour, but still no colours when i click on my target box,

am i missing out on something?


example of what i want http://media.curse.com/Curse.Projects.ProjectImages/7000/18062/Grid-25-by-Group.jpg

Works fine for me, both with my normal settings and with default settings, on all of my characters.

/grid > Status > Your Target > Enable
/grid > Status > Your Target > Make sure the Color value's opacity (alpha) is not zero, or it will be transparent (invisible)

/grid > Indicators > Border > Your Target

If you still can't get it to work after double-checking those specific settings, just reset to the default settings for the whole addon and start over.

FYI, the Border Color option on the Layout tab controls the color of the border for Grid's background frame, not individual unit frames. Nothing on the Layout tab affects the appearance of the individual unit frames.

did /grid > Status > Your Target > Enable then discovered that my priority is set to 0.

thanks Mr Phalanx for your help

Am I the only one who's not able to hide Bliz's raid frame while using Grid? For some reason they're always there.
