Fortress   Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Fortress is a display addon for LDB data feeds. It shows each plugin as a block, which is freely movable and can stick to other blocks. Blocks can be unstuck by holding the ctrl-key while dragging them.

Commands:
Use /fortress or /ft to open the configuration (also accessible via Main Menu -> Interface -> Addons -> Fortress).

Configuration:
The configuration has two parts: The master settings and the individual plugin settings. At first each option is controlled by the master settings and therefore it has the same effect for each plugin. Once you change something individually for one plugin, this setting is no longer controlled by the master mode (for this plugin).
You can select the mode for each option at the "Select master" tab in each plugin's config screen.

Bug Reports:
To report a bug, please open a ticket here.

Other versions:
The latest beta version is available here.

Uhm, that's not supported by Fortress, but if you wan't to do it yourself, the frame names follow this scheme:
"LegoFortressDataBrokerName"
e.g. Broker_Clock would have
"LegoFortressBroker_Clock"

This may be changed in future releases (I'll mention it in the changelog).

That's an error in YssDrop, that somehow uses LibQTip incorrectly, or there's a bug in LibQTip. Fortress just issues YssDrop to show it's tooltip, so the error trace starts from Fortress' code.

You could use one of the DataBroker addons for Recount:

You could use a Bar Display (like ChocolateBar, NinjaPanel or TitanPanel and I'm sure there are other I just forgot) for the top-center one, and two groups of Fortress blocks left and right of the panel.

* There are two problems with button group options:
a) LegoBlock (the library used to create the blocks) does not support button groups, even the code to determine groups for the 'show linked' option is ugly hackerish and
b) the options panel is complicated enough, button groups would require yet another layer of options to be added to the master/per-plugin settings (those are far away from ideal, but I'm really bad in designing GUIs, especially those for options).
Ahhh, ok. I'm gonna stick with it as the way it is, Fortress is the best one by far for me and I love how it looks and behaves. Thanks for the quick reply!

Maybe Fortress was deactivated due to the patch. Check your addon settings (character screen, button at the bottom left corner of the screen).
