Due to extensive changes, nearly all text in Ellipsis was altered rendering language translations for anything but English inaccurate. Anybody willing to take on the task of translating the mod (and the options especially) into other languages, please PM me and we can sort out getting the mod translated once again. Thanks!
Ellipsis (indicating omission)
Typography - A mark consisting of three periods, colloquially known as 'dot-dot-dot'.
Ellipsis is an addon that features multi-target aura tracking for spells that you (and your pet) cast on others. Additionally it keeps track of your pets spells when cast on others, tracks ground-targeted AoEs, temporary minion summons and totems. Cooldowns for your items, pet abilities and your own abilities can also be tracked. Options can be accessed by typing either /ellipsis or /...
Terminology
Aura - HoTs, DoTs, Buffs & Debuffs cast by you or your pet
Unit - Yourself, your pet, party members or hostile mobs (basically anything you can hurl spells at)
Auras, Units & Unit Groups
All auras you cast are attached to the unit they are cast on and these are then seperated into one of 7 groups when displayed. The first 4 groups are based on what the unit is, the 5th is a special case (see The Non-Targeted Unit below), and the last 2 are overrides for your current target and focus to keep them seperate (if desired) from every other displayed unit. Each group can be assigned to any of the 7 available display frames, and multiple groups can be assigned to a single frame.
Example: Assign all harmful units to frame [1], and your target to frame [2] to quickly reference the DoT situation on your current target 'pulled out' from the mess of all your other DoTs.
The Non-Targeted Unit
Some auras exist without any unit to attach themselves to such as temporary minion summons, totems, and ground-targeted AoE spells. These are all grouped together under the special Non-Targeted unit, which is the sole member of the non-targeted group (and can be assigned to a display frame and sorted just like any other unit).
Installation
There are two 'mods' included with Ellipsis, the main mod itself (folder: Ellipsis) and the configuration options (folder: Ellipsis_Options). Only the first is required to use the mod, though you will not be able to change options without the latter; Ellipsis_Options is also Load on Demand and thus won't use up any resources until you begin changing options (which is also why its a seperate folder/addon).

Hi!
I've been using Ellipsis for a while now and I'd like to say it's a fantastic lightweight alternative to all the other dot timers I used in the past. There is a small issue that I was wondering about though: If I unload Ellipsis, then enable it for the character and log in again, it doesn't remember all its placements and all the bars appear in the default position. |

Nice addon!
Can you please add the possibility to filter spells/abilities to monitor? I'd like to use it just to track CC durations and some fears too.. |

I'll see what I can do, when I get some time, to change it over to storing settings in the DB like everything else so it'll carry over through both profiles and reloads. |

Missing spells on CD monitor.
The Priest spell "Archangel" (specifically the SP version Dark Archangel) isn't being tracked. Normal version is a 30 second CD SP version Dark Archangel is a 90 sec CD Priest pet spells (shadowfiend ability "Shadowcrawl") isn't showing either Edit: Shadowfiend cooldown is off aswell for SP's due to the "sin and punishment" talent. This talent causes the CD to be redused by 10sec every time MF crits so the CD check for shadowfiend has to update over the duration.

Didn't see this anywhere in the several pages I scanned, but if answered somewhere please let me know where..
If I cast something such as Moonfire on multiple targets, then target something without moonfire on it, the timers vanish until I target them again, any reason why or ability to stop that? Also, Is there a way to change the names/layouts of the names because I'd rather have them disabled if possible. |

And as noted by Kerecha below, Ellipsis not tracking the Archangel effect (for both Discipline & Shadow priests) also decreases the utility of the mod substantially in raids. Archangel, like Chakra, has "sub"-spells to track. Hope you can resolve these issues. |

I think an amazing addition to this addon would be target frames. IE when I lay moonfire/insect swarm into a target instead of just having their name it has a clickable target frame making it much easier to switch back to the correct target in a multidotting situation.
I'm sure someone else has posted this but I didn't see it on the most recent few pages, I actually made an account on WoWInterface for the purpose of posting this. |

Please allow the cooldown tracker to track Archangel
I already had Ellipsis to track my dots on my warlock, so I thought I'd use it to track cooldowns on my priest. But Archangel is one of my key cooldowns, and I can't get it to appear on the cooldown bar.
