Shadowed Unit Frames  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: v4.4.8
by: Shadowed, Nevcairiel

SUF focuses on a simple configuration while maintaining the flexibility that most users will care about, preventing unnecessary bloating of the addon that sacrifices performance. While you aren't going to be able to set the health bar to be exactly 3.14 pixels outside of the unit frames, you can change options you actually care about such as bar height, ordering, frame height and so on. To speed up configuration, you can configure multiple units at the same time through the global configuration. For example, if you want to set the height of the Player, Target, Focus and Party frames to 50 then the height of Target's Target, Target's Target of Target, Focus Target to 30 you can easily do this by changing two options instead of having to do it seven times.

However, should you need a little bit of extra configuration do not despair! An advanced option is included that will unlock additional configuration giving finer control over the configuration.

Slash commands: /shadoweduf (/suf)

Anchoring
Are you driven crazy by your party frames not aligning up exactly with your player frames, even if it's only half a pixel off? The anchoring system will let you solve all alignment issues, by allowing you to anchor a frame to another and set a simple offset from the frame it is anchored to, or by manually setting the X/Y position of the frame.

Using the screen shot as an example, if you drag the player frame the other frames will move with the player frame preserving the alignment and spacing. Each frame can still be manually positioned wherever you want, but this gives you a way of easily anchoring and moving frames around without having to use a ruler.

Zone configuration (Disabling options/units by zone type)
Units and modules can be enabled or disabled based on the type of zone you are in. For example, if you want to see party targets and party pets while you are in an arena but nowhere else then you can use the visibility options to enable it only while inside an arena. Modules can also be disabled by zone type, if you want to see party auras while in a raid instance but nowhere else you can disable the module in raid instances only.

Profiles do not have to be swapped and it is all automatic.

Units
Supports unit frames are as follows:

Player: Player, Pet, Pet Target
General: Target, Target of Target, Target of Target of Target, Focus, Focus Target
Party: Party, Party Pets, Party Targets, Party ToT
Raid: Raid, Raid Pet, Main Tank, Main Tank Target, Main Assist, Main Assist Target, Boss, Boss Target, Boss ToT, Main Assist ToT, Main Tank ToT
Arena: Arena, Arena Target, Arena Pets, Arena ToT
Battleground: Battleground, Battleground Target, Battleground Target

Features

  • Tags: Includes a simple tagging system that can be customized in virtually any way using Lua, even if something isn't included by default odds are you can make the tags
  • Incoming Heals: Supports the Blizzard Events for incoming heal data, no external libraries needed
  • Auras: Can be set to only show auras you casted, or can cast on others. Can enlarge auras that you casted, and hide the cooldown ring on the timers of auras you didn't cast as well to make it more obvious which ones you casted and which ones you didn't
  • Aura Timers: You will need a mod such as OmniCC to show timers on buffs and debuffs
  • Aura Indicators: Display colored squares or icons for certain auras on any unit
  • Fader: Fades frames when out of combat and inactive (100% mana/no target)
  • Class Power (Eclipse, Holy Power, etc): Supports all of the class power features from Eclipse to Burning Embers.
  • Highlighting: Border highlighting of frames based on mousing over them, curable debuffs, aggro or you are targeting/focusing them
  • Range Checking: Fades frames out that are out of range of you
  • Exportable Layouts: If you have a layout, or your friend has a layout you want to try out you can export/import SUF layouts by going to /suf -> Layout Manager
  • Profiles: You can change from any profile to another one without reloading your UI, should you want to use a completely different layout based on zone you can easily switch profiles without hassle

Pretty much all the general unit frame settings are in, health bars, cast bars, power bars, portraits, indicators and so on.

Modules
Basic module support is included, should you be interested in building a module see the documentation on github for more information.

Whilst I appreciate the response, is there any particular reason why not? Too much time for a minor change? Code hassles?

Thanks! Now I can stop wasting my time looking for a setting that doesn't exist and finish up my UI.

I'm definitely enjoying the switch to SUF.

Is it possible to make the Empty Bar completely transparent? I want to use it as a buffer to split up the health and power bars, but even after working with SUF for a few hours I can't figure out if that is even possible. Any help would be appreciated.

Copying my comment on the auras addon to here, as that comments section doesn't get much traffic:

We have recently started to do Sinestra and the nature of Wrack raises a feature I'd love to see implemented on SUF Auras. Can we have auras to track debuffs/buffs on units counting upwards rather than counting down?

It's one less thing to worry about to dispel on 21 rather than 39, and would be nice functionality to have to bring SUF Auras in line with some of the other raid frame suites out there.

Thanks.

is there anyway you can show yourself in the party/raid frames even as solo?

hello, i'm a long time SUF (+SUF_ClassPower) user ... great addon

been using SUF last alpha versions (but recently i was gonna change SUF layout/look but /shadoweduf (/suf) wouldn't open options window)...


if i disable SUF_ClassPower /suf command works fine.

this got something to do with some changes made in alpha versions after v.3.4.1


for now the solution i've found... everytime i wanna change something that requires SUF_ClassPower (enabled) i gotta downgrade SUF to v.3.4.1... if i wanna change something else all i gotta do is disable SUF_ClassPower.

...probably i should actualy stick with v.3.4.1


could u check this situation?... or maybe just implement SUF_ClassPower options in the future

tks in advance

Alright well despite the filename making it look like the same version, I downloaded it and it works great now. Thanks a bunch man I've been a longtime xperl user but their support/updating seems to have stagnated with several bugs persisting through the last few versions. Shadowed is now my UF of choice and I'll recommend it to anyone who'll listen.

The toon is http://us.battle.net/wow/en/characte...%C3%A2t/simple. I downloaded the addon from curse a couple of days ago, version 3.4.1?

Is that the current version?

edit: Obviously it's not, hehe. I just grabbed 4.2 I will install it after this Coren Direbrew kill and leave feedback here. Just my luck that the update would be released the day after I downloaded the addon.

edit2: Hmm, downloading the one labeled 4.2 on curse and on this site give me a file named ShadowedUnitFrames-v3.4.1.zip O_o
