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!

It's in the same place it's always been: Grid > Frame > Center Text Length

You are running an outdated plugin that tries to add options to the Frame section, but has still not been updated for the changes to Grid's configuration window. Update or replace your Grid plugins.

I recently returned to wow so I'm not sure when this was changed but when using Grid and "spamming" heals so that I click the heal before i can actually queue it and getting he "another action is in progress" error the incoming heal (both the text and the bar) will stop displaying. If i just cast a spell and let it finish, or even just wait between spells enough so that i don't get the error I'll have no problems with the inc heals, but if i try to cast it too soon the inc heals indicators just disappear. I'm guessing it has something to do with grid now using the built in blizzard inc heals function, as in previous version i did not have this issue. Is there an option to disable this ?

Grid has nothing to do with casting spells, or the "action in progress" error. Grid also has absolutely no control over whether or not the WoW game client gives it accurate information about incoming healing. Try adjusting the lag tolerance setting in the WoW game client's options menu.

Grid contains no code which changes settings without user action. Either you have some other addon (probably some crappy premade UI package) forcibly overwriting your settings, or there is something wrong with your hard drive and/or operating system and/or WoW installation that is preventing WoW from correctly saving your addon settings between login sessions.

Hello guys, I have a problem with my Grid frames, when ever I enter a battleground or a raid the fames resets to the middle of the screen. Can I somehow change this so it always stay in the same position?

Is there any way to have Health and Health Deficit to show up as a percentage instead of -numbers? Any script and/or addon that did this is ood so it doesn't work anymore. Anyone know of a working script or addon that enables grid to have percentages?

Is it posible to make preview of grid raid frames? For example I am not in group and want to see how i looked like in raid. I want to put in my circle action bars like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-QpdFH7Xr8 but I dont know what size should I make. Also does grid have option so I could remove unwanted effects like with Decursive addon?

No. Blizzard's secure group header system does not support that. Ask some guild members to group with you for 5 minutes, or join AV and stand in the spawn cave.

Use Clique.

Find someone to update GridStatusHealthPercent, or accept that health percentages are completely worthless for healing and just use the deficit that's actually useful for choosing the correct heal. If you're not healing, then health numbers really don't matter at all.

On my priest, I wanted to use an indicator to show if everyone in the group has my Fort and Shadow Protection buffs. I was using an icon indicator as the center icon, but the issue is that I also have pets turned on, and since pets don't get buffed, the center icon always remains on their frames. Is there anyway to exclude pets from a "missing x" indicator?

Not at present, but pets/vehicles would be a sensible addition to the class filter, so if you post a feature request in the ticket tracker so I don't forget, I'll probably add it at some point.

I just relogged during an isntance and my grid disappeared, now I can't get it back. I've exited and reopened the game, but it's still missing, any ideas?

Also is there any way to indicate Prayer of Mending, either by icon or a corner?

You can add Prayer of Mending the same way you add any other buff or debuff as a new status, and assign it to any indicator you want.

Grid > Status > Add new buff > Type "Prayer of Mending" and hit Enter.
Grid > Indicators > [something] > Check the "Buff: Prayer of Mending" status.

As for "missing", without more information, I have no idea. Is Grid still enabled at the character screen for that character? Is the minimap/Broker icon visible? What happens when you type "/grid"? Do you have an error catching addon like BugSack, and if so does it report any errors from Grid?

Alternatively, you can just reset the addon to a fresh install state by logging out of WoW and deleting Grid's saved settings file:

World of Warcraft > WTF > Account > [your account name] > SavedVariables > Grid.lua

Finally, depending on how you relogged (e.g. if you experienced a power surge or outage that turned off or restarted your computer) you might also want to try deleting Grid from your AddOns folder and reinstalling a newly downloaded copy.

Thanks, it was actually a UI addon causing the block, and I got PoM working.
