Grid

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!

I like my grid to be more elongated sideways than straight up and down, or a box so if you could just make it so i can make it drain sideways, that would be awesome.

Yes; you need to enable a range that your rogue can check. You're most likely using the 40-yard range check on your druid and shaman; however, rogues don't have any spells that can be used on friendly targets that have a range of 40 yards, so it's not possible for Grid to perform a 40-yard range check on your rogue. The next time you log onto your rogue, enable the 38-yard range check; that's the distance checked by the Blizzard "check interact distance" function, so it's available to all classes.

When you log onto a class where a 40-yard range check is possible, Grid will only activate the 40-yard range check, even if the 38-yard range check is also enabled in your settings, so you can use the same profile on both your druid/shaman and your rogue, without worrying that you're doubling up on range checks.

I've been playing around with these settings a bit.

On my healing classes, when the "More than 40 yards away" option is checked, the frame alpha works. When unchecked, the frames never fade regardless of how far away party members are or what other range options are checked.

On my other toons, none of the ranged options work at all (I tried the 10, 28, 38 and 100).

Phanx Cat. Forum posts: 5617 File comments: 2321 Uploads: 54	Grid's static memory usage is fairly high due to its reliance on the Ace2 framework. However, it's important to note that static memory usage has almost no impact on game performance at all. On a modern machine, you will not notice any drop in framerate due to any amount of static memory usage; it really does not matter whether an addon uses 1 KB of memory, or 100 MB. If static memory usage is what you're worried about, then you're worried for no reason. You might as well be worried about being eaten by a grue IRL. Factors that do actually have an impact on performance are increasing memory usage (the rate at which additional memory is consumed) and CPU usage. The nature of Grid, or any other unit frame addon, means that it will use some CPU cycles and memory, as frames and other UI objects take up space in memory, and there are many events which the addon must respond to in order to update the frames with current information. To answer your specific questions, no, there is no way to disable the configuration, and even if you made the necessary changes to make Grid load-on-demand, you'd only be delaying the allocation of memory, not preventing or reducing it. TLDR: No, and stop worrying about static memory usage.

Bizerk A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 6 File comments: 81 Uploads: 1	I'm building a very lightweight UI but I'm having difficulty reducing the impact some irreplaceable addons have like grid. Currently its using more than half of my UI resources. I'd like to know if theres a way to remove a module such as the configuration menu for example or have it load on demand to make it more lightweight.

Grid > Status > Range > More than X yards away > Color, change the Alpha value of the color.

I find it a lot easier when I'm assigned a target to heal for p3 hm anub if Grid would show the marks that DBM throws out and such. I'd like to keep using Grid instead of using VuhDo. If this is actually possible already please forgive my ignorance and hold my hand through enabling the option =)
