@ griddark
No, I do not know buttonfacade, but I might have a look at it soon.

@ Hjalte
I seems to be a race condition, I will change some init events in the next version.

Any plans to add the ability to sort by duration? And ButtonFacade would be awesome.

I was thinking of making my own version of Buffalo, but you seem to have beaten me to it

Let me know if you need any help, your flashing method could use some love (Use Blizzard's UI flash functions instead of your own) - and the flash "algorithm" for short duration buffs needs a tweak aswell.

Throw me a PM, I'd love to help.

Brilliant, BF support - or rather the lack of it in Bison and some of the slimmer buff display mods - is the only thing keeping me tied to a much larger mod.

Ups, it was easier as I was thinking about. (<- I think wrong english)

I implemented a first version of the ButtonFacade support.
Please report any problem as soon as possible. I do not be a user of such feature.
