Aero

Version: 2.0

by: ALZA [More]

Aero

version 2.0

Info
This addon adds open/close animation to some of WoW interface elements. Basically it looks like animation in Aero interface of Windows Vista/7.

The addon was inspired by Cargor's VisualFX, but it has a big difference - it does not break frames in combat. Instead of it, addon works only out of combat for secure frames and does not taint default WoW UI.

This is the latest and most stable version of addon. There are many others (with implementation of Aero Shake feature and some other) that were not released because of high CPU usage and unstable work. But i'm not planning to add more functionality to Aero, so v2.0 will be only version released on public.

Here's video that shows how addon works: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27JqTPHU_SY (the vid shows 1st version with only "show" animation, v2.0 has also similar "hide" animation).

Installation
Extract archive into your \World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns folder.

Adding more frames to animate
All you need to know contained in Frames.lua file.
Feel free to post hook funcs for addons that you want to be supported by Aero.
Addon authors can add Aero support directly into their addons using this method:

Code:

if(IsAddOnLoaded"Aero") then
	Aero:RegisterFrames(
	...
	list frame names that are created by addon
	...
	)
end

I've updated some of the frames. Replace Frames.lua with this:

Code:

--[[
Aero:RegisterFrames(...)
Use it to register show/hide animation to frames
Arguments can be either frame names or hook functions, seperated by commas
]]

Aero:RegisterFrames(
	"GameMenuFrame",
	"AudioOptionsFrame",
	"VideoOptionsFrame",
	"InterfaceOptionsFrame",
	"OpacityFrame",
	"ItemRefTooltip",
	"OpenMailFrame",
	"StackSplitFrame",
	"ColorPickerFrame",
	"ChatConfigFrame",
	"ReputationDetailFrame",
	"PVPFrame",
	"LootFrame",
	"HelpFrame",
	"MailFrame",
	"TradeFrame",
	"GossipFrame",
	"TabardFrame",
	"FriendsFrame",
	"MerchantFrame",
	"QuestLogFrame",
	"SpellBookFrame",
	"PetStableFrame",
	"GuildRegistrarFrame",
	"LFDParentFrame",
	"LFRParentFrame",
	"CharacterFrame",
	"EncounterJournal"
)

--[[
Aero:RegisterAddon(addon, ...)
Use it to register frames that are created after addon loaded or on demand
Arguments:
	addon - addon's name
	... - either frame names or hook functions, seperated by commas
]]

Aero:RegisterAddon("Blizzard_BindingUI", "KeyBindingFrame")
Aero:RegisterAddon("Blizzard_Calendar", "CalendarFrame")
Aero:RegisterAddon("Blizzard_CraftUI", "CraftFrame")
Aero:RegisterAddon("Blizzard_MacroUI", "MacroFrame")
Aero:RegisterAddon("Blizzard_AuctionUI", "AuctionFrame", "AuctionDressUpFrame")
Aero:RegisterAddon("Blizzard_GuildBankUI", "GuildBankFrame")
Aero:RegisterAddon("Blizzard_GuildUI", "GuildFrame")
Aero:RegisterAddon("Blizzard_LookingForGuildUI", "LookingForGuildFrame")
Aero:RegisterAddon("Blizzard_TalentUI", "PlayerTalentFrame")
Aero:RegisterAddon("Blizzard_TradeSkillUI", "TradeSkillFrame")
Aero:RegisterAddon("Blizzard_GMSurveyUI", "GMSurveyFrame")
Aero:RegisterAddon("Blizzard_AchievementUI", "AchievementFrame")
Aero:RegisterAddon("Blizzard_BattlefieldMinimap", "BattlefieldMinimap")
Aero:RegisterAddon("Blizzard_ItemSocketingUI", "ItemSocketingFrame")
Aero:RegisterAddon("ALZAUI", "aBagsHolder", "aBagsBankHolder")

Aero:RegisterAddon("cargBags", function()
	hooksecurefunc(cargBags, "Spawn", function(_, name)
		Aero:RegisterFrames(name)
	end)
end)

Edit: Took out TrainerUI because it throws errors sometimes

Haleth Look at the post Forum posts: 800 File comments: 859 Uploads: 17	To the people with the transparency problems; it's because Aero sets the alpha of the frame to fade them in/out. It should work if you comment out these lines in aero.lua (this will leave you with only the scaling): Code: local function Anim(frame) aero = frame.aero percent = aero.total / duration value = aero.start + aero.diff * percent if(value<=0) then value = 0.01 end -- frame:SetAlpha(value) Code: local function OnFinish(frame) frame:SetScale(1) -- frame:SetAlpha(1) -- @ Alza; Will you be updating this addon for Cataclysm?

When I use this addon, which I think is fab. I come across a problem that when I try and change the opacity of any other addon it won't save because I have Aero on. When I have it check off, the opacity saves. Any idea what is going on here?
