There seems to be a bug with this addon. Whenever I disable friendly nameplates the turn back on the moment I enter combat. If I disable them in combat they turn on again when I reenter combat. Using the latest version. Any solution?

ya so seriously wats da deal??? it works great by the way.... just dont DL it thru curse client and dl the beta and its awesome, except for this one minor perfectionist detail and just like the pirate said who attached the ships wheel to his belt buckle..."it drives me nuts"

Actually I played around more with the regular Tidy Plates and it doesn't show NPC roles either, such as "<Tailoring Trainer>" or "<General Goods>". If in the future you add that feature, and a feature for hiding friendly health bars out of combat, I will be all over Threat Plates. For now I spose it's back to that memory hog DocsNameplates (or until I can mess around with the code myself).

Is there some way to get the options from Tidy Plates proper to adjust the settings in Threat Plates? All the settings in TP "Tank" and TP "Damage" appear to have no affect on TPTP, and I'd really like to be able to turn off health bars on friendly NPCs, have the "extra text" like guild names, vendor types, etc. show up - all settings you can make in TP but not in TPTP.

Custom nameplates setting of one nameplate is copying to another custom nameplate.

I made one for Hedious Amalgamation. Gave it a unique color. Then copied that one. And pasted into a new entry. Then named it Corrupting Parasite and gave it a different color. But when I go back to Amalgmation the color box is the same color even if I click on it. So now I have two name plates sharing the same settings.

Is there any way to make the whole bar change color (like regular Tidy Plates turns the health bar blue) when a mob is being tanked by another tank? If not it would be something I highly suggest adding.

Other than that keep up the great work!

Hey, I'm using the latest version and it's kind of annoying that the enemy class icons don't cache like the friend's ones does (if you enable the option).

I have to mouse over the enemy everytime for the class icon to stay there, if I switch targets only the current target has the class icon displayed and all surrounding ones doesn't.

Am I doing anything wrong? Missing any option? It didn't work like that in the past and I could pretty much have all the enemy class icons appearing on screen in an alterac valley e.g.

PS: The behavior above is only shown when enemy class colors is DISABLED, if I Enable it, it stays the right way (caching the classes).

I'd love to be able to have this without enemy class colors turned on, any idea on where to fix the code to that?

Custom name plates isn't working for Hideous Amalgamation. It appears as an invisible nameplate. This worked fine on the PTR when I tested it.

Using Tidyplates 6.4.9 R373
Threatplates 5.3

Under the custom nameplate I have
Hideous Amalgamation as the name.
Then everything is checked off. Also I tried unchecking alpha and scale. But then the custom nameplate didn't recolor that mobs nameplate.

The placement options X, Y doesn't work. There's very few options to customized. I can't change the size of the icons, the size of the number in the icon, etc.

Also can this widget be expanded to show buffs as well that the target placed on them self?

Ok got this working, not sure what I was doing wrong before. But would like to have a way to show buffs based on a white list blacklist.

they just updated tidy plates.. (beta) 6.4 (r318)

got these on login..

Hi
I've never managed to make the tanked widget work correctly.
When having 2 tanks in a raid, I mark both tanks as tank role and/or main-tank and it has no effect.
Targets aggroed on the other tank still show as lost aggro targets with no widget displayed.
I have no other widgets enabled.
Note I have never managed to get this feature to work throughout all versions of tidyplates and threatplates since it was introduced.
It would be a very useful feature if it worked.
Has anyone else had this work?
Thanks
