That addon is actually still around apparently

Also what's the chance of cooldown support?

There used to be an addon that added timers to the spell activation overlay frame: "Spell Overlay Timer", iirc. Can't remember right now how it did it or if it's still around. Was very helpful nonetheless.

I don't think this would fit the intention of this mod. But on the other hand it shouldn't be that hard to copy-cat the whole AnimationGroup code from the overlay template. Thus it would be possible to create independent texture animations anywhere you want them in any size.

https://github.com/tekkub/wow-ui-sou...ionOverlay.xml
https://github.com/tekkub/wow-ui-sou...ionOverlay.lua

A text cooldown display is another story. It requires a form of OnUpdate script. But the Blizzard animationgroup system is exactly this on the C-side. So it may be possible to set up an OnLoop script that fires on the pulse effect to handle those timer updates.

I used to track Predator's Swiftness on my druid way with something like this, but never got around expanding the code to allow for tracking various buffs/debuffs/procs. Good job.

Btw, I think it would be really really nice to have an option to also show the duration and/or display the info as duration (text, with different colors) only.

That's a good point, I suppose I need to pay more attention before I make a post....

I wasn't aware we could add to the SpellActivationOverlay definately gonna play around with this.

Probably wouldn't be a bad idea to give a link to the Blizzard images rather than a filepath in the text file for the people that need a better idea as to what their looking at.

Ok. Addon is working now. Fixed the drycode.

Added slash commands for moving/resizing of the spell alert frame.
