Skada Damage Meter  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 1.8.2
by: zarnivoop, funkydude, oscarucb

Skada is a modular damage meter with various viewing modes, segmented fights and customizable windows. It aims to be highly efficient with memory and CPU.

Usage

When you first start using Skada, there will be a window created by default. This window can be extensively customized in Skada's configuration panel; click the little cog icon to access a menu, and then click Configure. Depending on your user interface, there may also be a minimap button allowing quick access to this menu.

Skada supports multiple windows. To create a new window, click Windows in the addon's configuration panel. There are three built-in types of windows - Bar, Inline, and Data text. Bar is the classic damage meter window, and is very customizable. Inline shows the meter in a horizontal line, which can be useful for integration in custom user interfaces. Data text shows just one item at a time, and can also be displayed by any LDB display addon, such as Titan Panel, ChocolateBar, or ElvUI.

In the normal Bar window, you can left click on specific items for more detailed information, and right click for less details. At the very "top" is the list of all saved fight segments. Some data modes have several detailed information views. In this case you choose alternate views by holding certain keys pressed while clicking. For example, in Damage mode, you can Shift-click a player to see what enemies the player caused damage to. Tooltips will display how to reach the different views.

You can also use window buttons for selecting fight segment and mode directly.

Scrolling in Skada is done with the mousewheel.

Plugins

Skada is very easy to extend, and there are many extra plugin addons out there that add functionality, such as:

"Skada" is Swedish for "Damage".

is there anyway to only get the top 5-6 bars to show for a given assignment (ie heals/dps)
currently the entire 25 man shows up for me and I end up only seeing the players with the least healing done.
meaning i see dps players

of course i can scroll up and see the real healers but i was hoping for something to limit players

i currently only have 6 bars showing and after a fight is over im looking at dps players 19-25 instead of healers 1-6

hope this makes sense

For instance, yogg p1 > p2 > p3 I would like to have three separate segments.
Done in the latest revision on wowace.

I use Skada all the time and I've yet to see it be the cause for low FPS.

I haven't been running any profiling, but i'm 90% sure that Skada uses alot less CPU than Recount.

I saw some mention of excluding some user "pet" or "minion" helpers such as the blood worms and the like. I think this would be a great idea, as well as adding to that list the exclusion of a hunters snakes from the snake trap.

Is there any fix for whenever you exit a battleground (and that you have "Hide in PvP" on), that it gets enabled again afterward? Atm, you have to relog/reload for it to be enabled again, this has bugging me for some time.

There's one thing that miss me: I often have more DPSin my raids than I want to display with skada, but it automatically scroll down for the worst damage done in the raid. So I would like to know if you can just add an option to enable or disable the scroll down.

Thanks in advance

I keep getting en error when trying to view the spell details in the damage done window:

SkadaDamage\Damage.lua:334: attempt to index global 'self' (a nil value)

Any ideas?
