This addon was previously known as WDN Mobile Status Meters. I had deprecated it as the need for it wasn't as great as it once was. Unfortunately while testing WotLK I found myself wishing I had a standalone durability and experience meter again.
I am resurrecting this addon for that reason. The code could probably be better optimized, but I have cleaned it up and made it work in the Beta as it is. The old status meters had a reputation bar as well, which I may or may not add back in.
Let me know if you run into any errors, or if you would like to help localizing it for your language (as right now it is ONLY available in enUS)
Tooltips for each bar provide detailed information such as specific breakdowns of durability per item, or xp left to reach the next level. You can move the bar by holding down CTRL and dragging the bar around. It is clamped so there is never a fear of moving it offscreen where you cannot access it. You may also insert special text into the chat window by opening a chat edit box, and Shift clicking the meter. This works in much the same way that shift-clicking a chat link would.

-----------------------------------
* updated for WOTLK
* removed Reputation bar pending changes to work with beta code
* cleaned up code, and replaced my old rwlib with LibStub
I reopened this addon due to my needing it again in beta. I will likely keep it alive this time, as my free time is opening up a little compared to before.
This addon is being deprecated in favor of Natur EnemyCastBar. All features that you see here will likely be moved to that framework as a separate plugin.
The experience bar will not show if you are level 70. This is by design. If it isn't showing and your character is less than level 70 please let me know.
The reputation bar will not show unless you have a reputation clicked off in the reputation list. This is again by design. Make sure you have one selected, and tell me if it still isn't showing up.
couple of toons are not showing all 3 bars, just durability. I deleted my saved variables for those toons....still not showing.No errors, so not easy to give you any info.I double check and saw they were active.I believe you took out all slash commands so I can't try anything. What about Waterfall support to toggle on/off in game.
That is because I hook the checkbox on the default ui, not the actual ReputationWatch function. I will look into hooking the function instead, although I hate hooking functions directly. I prefer to use the default ui functions where possible, and I am surprised that FactionFu doesn't hook into the default function as well. I will download it and see how they did it to best find a way to make it work for you. I had actually planned on adding Fubar and Titan support in an upcoming version anyway.
Just a question: Would you prefer that I make it fully support Fubar/Titan so that you can actually have this show on those bars? The idea would be that you could use this in place of any other Experience / Reputation / Durability addons for those bars, and achieve the same functionality using my graphics / functions.
I use FactionsFu primarily for Faction selection, if that matters.
But using the most recent version, now whenever I log in with a faction selected, there's no bar, and even selecting a different faction in FactionsFu doesn't make one appear...I have to actually go to the Reputations tab of the Character Info and change it there to make the bar appear.
updated to fix the error you were getting. I forget a check on game load to make sure that you had a reputation set to watch in the first place. Thanks for sending me that bug.
Reputation bar should correctly be hidden on game-load if you are not watching a reputation.
Issues should be fixed. I have stripped the addon down to a fairly fundamental rewrite that only includes the base 3 meters: Experience, Durability, and Reputation. I am going to begin building from this rewrite as I work to make this addon a full framework for statusbar creation and information provision.
My goal is to allow you to create status meters on the fly from within the game. You can group them, size them, and dock them. Templates would be provided for all of the basic information someone would want a meter to show, like casting, reputation, experience, durability, crafting, weapon skill, etc... Basically anything that you can find a status bar for in-game already and maybe some that aren't yet.
Fun things to try:
* Bag Meter that fill up as your bag fills up
* Epic meter that shows how much of your gear is epic (purple)
* Daily Quest meter that shows how many of your daily limit you have used
I am aware of all the issues you guys are having, but in most cases am unable to duplicate them. I will be in contact with some of you via PM to help me test a newer version that hopefully solves your issues. I am working on a rewritten version that is completely modular and allows you to disable each bar both through the options and through the addon dialog as separate individual addons. With this change the base addon will become a framework for other status bars. Theoretically anyone could come in and create their own status panels that do their own thing using the same graphics and look/feel of the current ones you see here.
I think the issues you guys are having are directly related to the castingBar and how it takes control of the default casting bar. I am going to try creating a completely custom one that has nothing to do with the default so that other addons will not interfere with this one. Bear in mind that issues with two addons that both modify the casting bar kind of makes sense. They are trying to do the same thing and most likely WILL conflict no matter what. Expect there to be errors. But at least with the new version you can disable the casting bar completely as its own separate addon if you have another addon you prefer for this.
I stopped using the most recent version because of the errors it gave me. I then tried to install a earlier version that gave me no errors and it won't show up ( I did check the GUI to see if they were on).
I did find the hidden box, so I can move them again. . I will try the latest version one last time to see if it will throw errors. I'll delete my saved variable foe WDN to see if that makes a difference .
EDIT : Same errors, no need to repost, and for some reason I can't get other version to work. I think I know where the problem may be coming from, I use Quartz casting bar replacement bar for WoWAce.....maybe it's not liking that I already have a casting bar ( I turned yours off.)
This addon is getting better and better.
If you'll be adding more bars, do you think you can add an Autoshot one? (Or was that what you meant with Targeting bar?)
