Raid frames with aura indicators, and grouped into one frame
Raid farmes with aura indicators, and split up per group
Shadowed Unit Frames
SUF focuses on a simplistic 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.

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 Raid: Raid, Main Tank, Main Tank Target, Main Assist, Main Assist Target, Boss, Boss Target Arena: Arena, Arena Target, Arena Pets
Features
Tags: Includes a simple tagging system that can be customized in virtually any way using Lua, so even if something isn't included by default odds are you can make the tags
Incoming heals: Supports LibHealComm-4.0 for incoming heal data which gives you more accurate information including heal over times and channels like Tranquility and Penance
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
Fader: Fades frames when out of combat and inactive (100% mana/no target)
Druid power/rune/totem bars: Supports simple rune and totem bars as well as Druid mana bars for the player frame
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.

Is there any way to make the mob's name longer than what appears to be the default? I'm finding it hard to sometimes find the right mob to attack because the names are shortened to the same and I can't see the full name.
If it's not possible due to the space available in the frame, is it possible to move the name above/below the bar and let it go longer? Pitbull had something like this, so I'm just curious if I can do this with sUF.
This is the besta addon i use until now for UnitFrames, Gratz guys. But i have a big problem with SUF. I can't set my Focus Frame, simple the "Set focus" button vanish.
To be exactly: When i press right click on target the button "Set Focus" isn't there anymore. And on enemy players or NPC nothing happens.
Working fine on the shammy/rogue, but there's no percentage on the boss unit and the current/maximum mana goes outside the bar. Same thing with the warrior, the text is a bit too far to the right. Using the latest alpha from wowace.
I am getting error when trying to use /suf, so now I cannot do any configuration, and all my unit frames are now stuck together >.<
I went to the link at http://www.wowace.com/addons/shadowed-unit-frames/ and downloaded the latest version, which is v3.1-17-g61f79c7, but it is still giving me an error message when attempting to open up configuration window with the command /suf
Is there other ways to access the configuration window? I cannot find it from the Interface > Addon panel and I cannot access it with slash command. :'(
Started getting this error around the most recent release of SUF. This error appears whenever I try to lock the frames from config mode.
I have turned off other mods and still get this error.
Originally posted by MadCow is there a way to unlink the group members units? ive tried hitting the little button that says "unlink frames" that pops up when you unlock things but it doesn't allow me to position the group units independently

Is there any way this feature could be added in? Or is there an edit to the LUA I can personally do to enable it? Right now, it's the only thing stopping me from keeping this over pitbull, as I simply need horizontal frames for me healing setup.
