Change Log - LitePanels

1.5.2 -- 2009-12-08
- 3.3 toc update.
- Some optimizations.

1.5.1 -- 2009-11-11
- Error handling added for invalid fonts.

1.5a -- 2009-10-11
- Fixed pre-1.5 backwards compatibility.

1.5 -- 2009-10-07
- Plugin-like support added.
- New profiles system, see included example layout for info. Although old layouts will continue to work, it is advised that old layouts are converted to the new system.
- Panel borders can now be set to "SOLID" to create a pixel border.
- Panels with a % height/width will now resize based on its anchor_frame; parent secondary.
- New text attribute: outline - (1) thin outline, (2) thick outline. Setting an outline disables the default shadow effect, may be enabled manually.
- New text attribute: mono - True sets font's monochrome flag.
- Misc bug fixes and optimizations.

1.4.1 -- 2009-08-17
- CreateFrame hook will load sooner, this should (hopefully) fix many problems with panels not being set to the right parent frame.
- The anchor_frame setting will now recognize existing panels as intended.
- Added support for Class Colors by Phanx.

1.4 -- 2009-08-10
- Changed supplied layout filename to layout_example.lua.
- Border support added. See documentation for syntax.
- Percentage width/height rescaling is now on by default, attribute is obsolete.
- Throttling variable created for OnUpdate scripts (self.elapsed)
- Text object references will now be sent through to their string function.
- Layout "character - realm" names are no longer case-sensitive.
- New attribute: anchor_frame (defaults to parent). Sets the panel anchor frame if you'd like to anchor a panel to a frame other than parent while keeping parent's visibility, scale, alpha, etc.
- New script handlers: OnResize, OnDoubleClick, OnMouseDown, OnMouseUp

1.3.2 -- 2009-08-04
- TOC updated to 3.2

1.3.1 -- 2009-08-03
- Fixed a bug with texture rotate.
- Changed attribute 'active_scale' to 'resize'.
- Added missing attribute 'scale' to documentation.

1.3 -- 2009-08-01
- Super duper code optimizations.
- The default value for bg_alpha will no longer be set to 0.0 when tex_file has a value.
- Function text object panels will now correctly adjust its height and width when changed.
- Panels with parents that don't exist will now be attached to the parent when it's created.
- Text shadows will now default to 1. Set shadow to 0 to turn it off.
- New attribute: active_scale (off by default). Panels with a height or width percentage will automatically adjust themselves when the parent's height or width is changed. Usage: `active_scale = true`
- New attribute: inset (defaults to 0). Creates an inset on the panel. Usage: for all sides use `inset=5` or specific `inset={top=5,bottom=5}`. Negative values create a padding effect.

1.2 -- 2009-07-08
- Full text object support added, see docs.
- Changed default profile to always load.
- A few code optimizations.

1.1a -- 2009-06-30
- DK class coloring fixed.

1.1 -- 2009-06-30
- Complete overhaul. Many layout modifications, your old layout will not work without some changes (see documentation).
- Viewport, gradients, and texture art support added.
- Player class color panel setting added.
- User scripting support.
- Better parent handling with other panels.
- May now use height or width as a percentage in reference to its parent frame.

1.0a -- 2009-06-02
- Suppressed "LPanels" error when the variable doesn't exist (when layout file is still layout.lua.txt)

1.0 -- 2009-06-02
- Initial release.

PanelLayout can show all of character's stats??
or "litestats" can show tags??

Right, Litestats has the capacity for player stat tags. You could use that or take what you need from the addon

Here's the logic I'm looking for:

Here's what I got from your parameters, it's obviously not the whole panel config, but the scripts themselves should work:

Code:

OnLoad = function(self)
    self:RegisterEvent("UNIT_AURA")
end,
OnEvent = function(self, event, ...)
    local unit = "player"
    if unit ~= ... then return end

    -- define aura dimensions here
    local columns, height, width = 12, 32, 32

    local count = 0
    while UnitBuff(unit, count+1) do count = count+1 end

    -- horizontally oriented resizing algorithms
    self:SetHeight(ceil(count/columns)*height)
    self:SetWidth(count<=columns and count*width or columns*width)
end

I had a similar problem, running 2 profiles, everything was fine before Christmas, then all went pear shaped after. How I had them set up, was that one profile loaded on my main server, another loaded on other servers or for shaman:

lpanels:ApplyLayout("-r:turalyon -c:shaman","layout2")
lpanels:ApplyLayout("r:turalyon c:shaman","layout1")

To fix this little problem I've changed the above to:

lpanels:ApplyLayout("-r:turalyon -c:shaman","layout2")
lpanels:ApplyLayout("r:turalyon","layout1")
lpanels:ApplyLayout("c:shaman","layout1")

What was happening prior to me making this change, was that on my main server (turalyon) both layouts would load, while on other servers it worked how it was ment to. The weird thing is that this problem only started happening after I had a 4 day break over Christmas....I hadn't updated/changed anything since then.
