StellarBars  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 5.1.001
by: totalpackage [More]

StellarBars is an action bar mod that modifies WoW's default action bars. This is for those who like the basic action bars, but just want to tweak it a bit. Look elsewhere if you want more.

YouTube Intro



Current features:

  • Reskinned the textures in order to have more of the "mod" look
  • Custom button skin support using ButtonFacade
  • Slightly altered the default layout (relocated experience bars)
  • Option to adjust opacity, scale, and position
  • Option to change font
  • Maybe reduced the CPU usage
  • Out-of-range and out-of-mana button recoloring
  • Right-click self-cast


How to use:
  • Options: "/stellarbars", see interface options, or click the micro-buttons background (several options may not take full effect until after a login/reloadui)
  • More skins: install ButtonFacade and any skin of your choice

Re: Love it!

Really nice, lightweight, simple, stylish. The list goes on.

However, as a Moonkin, I realize that when I shift into Moonkin form, the first action bar key (action bar button hotkey 1 by default) is malformed. It is a vertically long Rectangle that overlays on top of the Experience/Reputation bar unlike all of the other action buttons.

When I shift back into Night Elf form, it returns back to normal but when I'm in Moonkin form, it is malformed again.

Can anyone help me with a quick fix (if it's no more than 10 lines of coding to deal with)?

"this" is, according to this reference, http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/th...Id=25626580975 , going to disappear. I saw you are already using the _G environment references and thought id point that routine out in case you overlooked it.

Thanks for your great addon and hard word

Thanks for the fix.

"this" is no longer used as a global. I have always used the word "this" as a local variable.

Just letting you know, I'm sure you will fix it eventually.
Which class are you using? A screenshot may help as well.

Button 1 of the bonus bar will stay the way it is. I just fixed the initial misplacement of the entire bonus bar.

Id like to know if this is a Temporary Solution for Cataclysm Because this little problem is causing me to not be able to use stellarbars at all it keeps throwing my exp bar behind my Spell Icons, And occasionally it throws ALL my spell icons completely off my screen. I'm just hoping this will be fixed eventually?

Sorry, I just didn't see anything that stated weather this would be fixed or left how it currently is. I know its suposed to be a solution but i didnt know if what you have done is a Temporary solution or how you actually intend to fix this.

Bar 1 is normal on my rogue out of stealth, stealthing causes button 1 to elongate.
Bar 1 button 1 is elongated in all stances on my warrior.

Would love to see this get updated.

If anyone knows of an easy to use addon that allows scaling of the blizz actionbar and scaling and movement of the blizz side actionbars in the meantime would be great.

you can use MoveAnything to scale it for now.

I had the exact same problem once I got rid of the lua errors by commenting out the lines posted below.

If anyone is interested in an alternative until or if stellarbars gets updated, I switched over to Domino and rActionbuttonstyle with Stoneh skin. Not only did I get it to look and feel just like what I had with stellarbars, I also was able to get rid of buttonfacade and caith skin (so overall I got the same look/feel with a smaller memory/cpu overhead).

Just an idea for anyone, who like me, didn't want a really bloated actionbar replacement. This worked pretty well as an alternative.
