Version 1.0.2
- Really fix runic power update for Deathknight
Digits is a numeric head-up display of health and power (mana/rage/energy/runic). When you enter combat it will appear, and when you leave combat it will hide.
Configuration:
* Open up the Interface panel, it's in the AddOns list (/digits is a shortcut)
* Press buttons, slide sliders.
* While the interface frame is open, the digits displays are draggable to wherever you want them to be.
Q&A
Q: Can you put a bar in?
A: Say it with me: "numeric head-up display"
Q: Can I make the font bigger than 35?
A: Sadly, no. That seems to be a hard limit. Even increasing the scale doesn't work.
Q: How do I get more fonts to choose from?
A: Digits uses the SharedMedia library, so the fonts you get from whatever other addons you have that use it will all be available.
Q: Why not bars anyway?
A: I am one of those (apparently very rare) people who get no useful information in any way from a status bar that is used to show a quantity. On the other hand, I can observe a number in my peripheral vision and parse it without having to pay full attention to it. So, I make things without bars. It doesn't cost me anything to make the addon publicly available, so if other people who also like not-bar displays find my stuff useful, then I'm glad I can help.

Sorry, there are currently no optional files available.
Sure, I'd put those changes into the main release. Not sure why it would lag, since it works immediately off of events firing. I'll poke around and see what I can see.
You can email me the files you changed if you like: satrina@evilempireguild.org
First, thank you very much for this and all your other mods.
I went into the lua of Digits and made some small edits that I think other addon-users might like as well. I put some simple checks in so that at 100% health, the health number doesn't show, and at 0 rage, the power number doesn't show. This combined with the "show out of combat" option takes non-info off the screen, which is always good. Would you consider adding these changes to the main addon? I have some guildmates who are interested in my version, but I'd be more comfortable having them get it from here; I'm not certain I haven't introduced any bugs or slowdown.
Also, after playing around with Digits for a bit, I was dismayed to note that it seems to lag about a quarter-second behind my Pitbull frames when it comes to updating rage and health numbers. Is this a known issue?
Again, thank you for sharing the products of your work with the community!

Is it possible to remove the % while displaying health/mana as a percentage? Probably not worth implementing as an option, but is there a simple way for me to alter that property?
The weird part is, it worked fine for me like that testing with a deathknight O_o Fixed line 51 so that nobody else gets the same problem though, thanks for pointing it out!
