Aptus Aura Frames

Version: 1012

by: Avis57 [More]

aAF is a lightweight replacement for the Blizzard aura display.

Featuers

Create an unlimited number of aura groups
Individually set size, scale, filters, growth direciton, etc
Filter auras by target, caster, name, and more
Sort auras by Index or Duration

Configuration

Most ingame configuration options are self-explanatory.

Changing or Copying profiles will trigger a UI Reload, so be aware of that before doing it in combat or something lol.

Move aura groups ingame by holding alt+shift and dragging. Type '/aaf move' to toggle move mode, wherein all aura icons are visible for accurate placement.

Slash commands

/aaf - enters ingame config
/aaf move - Shows all aura frames

Caveats

You will be unable to click off buffs while in combat for the time being. Still working on weapon enchants.

To Come

Besides the obvious bug fixes and weapon enchants, I'd like to add button fascade support, additional sorting and filtering options, and anything else anyone may want ( that is feasible )

Acknowledgement

This addon is based on Shantalya's Filger

----

1010.1-b

*Stupid but major bug caused by oversight fixed
*Added ability to change display type of timers

----

1010-b

*Creating and deleting new aura bars should no longer require a reload.
*Whitelists and Blacklists are no longer dependent on proper capitalization

----

1009-b

*IMPORTANT: You should wipe saved variables on this one, old variables could interact with and screw up new stuff.
*Fixed some profile stuff, they should work ( more or less ) correctly now
*Adding / Removing bars or changing profiles now reloads ui

----

1008-b

*fixed varius bugs in gui

*First implementation of ingame config

----

1005-b
*The name of the one who applied an aura should now be correct in all cases.
*Debuff frames should now never be secure.

----

1004-b

*Modified how config.lua is structured.
** No longer segregated by class, one master config section with group and positions sectons
** Includes a positions section NOTE: Somewhat buggy at this point
** Added group attributes
*** LineGrowth
*** timer
*** LinePadding

* Added buff timers

* Changed the way buff frames are created. Only frames which will be able to have buffs clicked off are now secure. This allows sorting, filtering, etc on other frames. Also allows hiding of frames during combat.

* Added saved variables.
** Upon first login, data is pulled from config.lua. Settings and positional data are saved upon reload or logout. In order to use different frames on different characters, setup config.lua for character A, log into A, log out, set up for character B, log into B.

* Added basic profile stuff
** /aaf copy config sets copies information from config.lua
** /aaf copy profile <CharacterName> copies group data from that character's configuration
***NOTE: this is also supposed to copy positional data, but is somewhat buggy, use with caution
***NOTE: changes will not show up until user reloads or relogs

-----

1003- b

* Fixed oversight causing addon not to function when class has no class specific bars set up.

* Added weapon enchant frames.

* Disabled clicking buffs off for whitelisted and blacklisted frames due to new aura header template stuff that I dont fully understand yet.

* Fixed bug in tooltip display on blacklisted and whitelisted groups.

CAVEATS:

Weapon enchant frames do not yet support clicking buffs off.

Lily.Petal A Molten Giant Forum posts: 532 File comments: 109 Uploads: 3	Is there a way to change the width of the bars on a scale of 1 pixel instead of 10 at a time? If not, may you tell me what quick change I can do it to? Also, I use a solid border which requires to have border width setting of '1', but you only allow people to go down to '2'. May I also request this to be changed or at least know why You can only set it so low? Please and thank you. ~L.P. __________________ Aggro Color to KG Panels Borders - Nibelheim Lua Based UI Hider - Nibelheim Custom LUA PowerText - Stuf - Nibelheim, Seerah

Re: Friendly/Enemy Target Buff Frames

Originally posted by MustacheRide
One of the things that has always bugged me is that buff frame addons (or at least satrina) doesn't have frames for Friendly and Enemy Buffs and Debuffs...

This also applies in PVP and PVE...

So when I target a boss in PVE, I want to highlight the buffs he has or gets, and I only need 3-5 icons in that frame but they need to be large and noticeable.

When I target a person in the raid, as a raid leader I am looking for buffs missing or possibly during a fight checking for a debuff so they need to have a large and noticeable debuff frame.

When I target an enemy player in PVP I am looking for both debuffs and buffs, in the case of CC I am looking for any debuffs that would break them (bleeds/dots), or for a specific buff (heroism/bloodlust/zerking/PI/etc) so I know that I need to watch out.

All of these events are impossible to build buff frames for with the current buff frames I have tried, do you have any plans for implementing friendly/enemy based buff frames?

Satrina Buff Frames does what you are asking. All though you need to configure it all yourself. You have to set the frame up so that it shows either everything or what you want specifically. You also have to set the frame unit to target, then you need to make multiple frames for this too work. It takes a lot of configuring but it is possible as I have done this for my own frames. You should probably try looking up guides to help you.

Under what circumstances do default blizz frames reappear ?

I read the "add button fascade support" and apparently missed the rest of the line.

The reappearing blizz frames seems to be a problem with their consolidate feature, with it on the blizzard aura frame sometimes reappeared on a screen reload (boats, zeppelins, instances, /reload, etc.)
turning that feature off seems to have fixed the problem.

EDIT:
Seems to be random but even with consolidate buffs off, the consolidate buffs icon appears, turning the "feature" on then off again fixes it.
This might be a blizzard ui problem though.

Edit:

After clearing out the Saved Variables it works again but the error returns after testing it again when changing buff size.
And the Bars will Disappear as well...

You should now be able to click buffs off while out of combat, and the line direction UP option should be fixed.

Jimmerz28 A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 42 Uploads: 0	Was finally looking for a nice addon to move my buffs that wasn't an overload! Looks great, however, when I select "Line Direction" to "Up" the buffs still flow underneath. Usually have them in the lower right corner, so I want them to grow Left and each line grow Up.

Thanks! <3

This is because of a change blizzard made in the last patch, making removing buffs secure because of exploitation by addons, having an addon remove tree form when a lock was trying to banish you for example. In the short term, I have an idea that may make it possible to click buffs off out of combat, but having buffs able to be clicked off in combat, while still allowing sorting and filtering, may not be possible.
