Grid

Version: 5.2.0.1600

by: Phanx, Greltok, Pastamancer

Grid is a compact and highly configurable party/raid unit frame addon.

Please do not use the Bug/Feature buttons to the right, or send me PMs asking for help, reporting bugs, or requesting features. Use the links below instead!

The compact grid of units lets you select a group member quickly, while keeping a good overview of the whole group. It shows as much information as possible without overloading you. It allows you to customize what information you see, and how you see it. It works in both party and raid groups, and supports pets and vehicles.

Want more features? The Grid core tries to include only features which are generally useful for all classes and roles, but makes it easy to add new features with a simple plugin API for developers. Over 75 third-party plugins are already available!

Type “/grid” for options, or right-click the minimap button, DataBroker launcher, or Grid frame tab.

✻ Need Help?

IMPORTANT: If you are using any version of Grid other than the one posted on this page — such as an alpha version from WowAce — please do not post on this page about any problems you encounter with it. Alpha versions are development snapshots, are not officially supported, and may be buggy or broken, delete your settings, or crash your game. The release (and sometimes beta) versions posted to WoWInterface.com and Curse.com are actually tested.

✤ Found a bug?
Submit a bug report to let us know about the problem so we can fix it!

✤ Problem with a plugin?
Contact the plugin’s author for help. The Grid team cannot provide support for third-party plugins.

✤ Have a suggestion?
Feel free to tell us about your idea, but please make sure there isn’t already a plugin that adds the feature you’re looking for first!

✤ Questions? Comments?
Post a comment on this page, or post in our WowAce forum thread.

✻ Language Support

Grid is compatible with English, Deutsch, Español, Français, Italiano, Português, Русский, 한국어, 简体中文, and 繁體中文 game clients.

Grid is translated into English, Deutsch, Español, Français, Italiano (partial), Português, Русский, 한국어, 简体中文, and 繁體中文.

To add or update translations for any language, enter them on the WowAce project page. New and updated translations will be automatically included in the next version of Grid!

Hint: The WowAce interface for adding translations is rather cumbersome. To make the process easier, you can use the Export function on WowAce, copy the exported data into Notepad, fill in your translations, and then paste the new data back into the system using the Import function.

✻ Credits

Grid was originally conceived and written by Maia and Pastamancer in late 2006. Phanx has been the primary developer since late 2009. Jerry wrote the original pet support code. Mikk designed the icon. jlam added some advanced options for auras. Greltok has helped a lot with bugfixing. Finally, lots of people have contributed translations!

Added a basic status module for absorbs
Added an option to enable the standard right-click unit menu
Added clamp insets to allow the frame borders to be offscreen
Fixed dispel capability detection for druids, and for warlocks with imps
Fixed the "World Raid as 40 Player" option (thanks Greltok)

Removed the "Clamp to screen" option; the frame is now permanently clamped, since there's no real reason to allow it to be moved off-screen
Changed the "Hide tab" and "Hide minimap icon" option to "Show tab" and "Show minimap icon" -- translators should verify the localization of these options

Added an option to hide aura statuses on pets/vehicles (ticket #572)
Added options for showing duration and/or stack count using the status color and/or text (ticket #421, patch provided by Jlam).

Phanx A Pyroguard Emberseer Forum posts: 2709 File comments: 1713 Uploads: 30	Grid can only track buffs by their name. It doesn't support spell IDs. For spells that have the same name as another spell, the auto-complete dropdown will only show one, but it doesn't actually matter which one. If you type "Geisthülle" then Grid will activate the status for any buff named "Geisthülle". It sounds like you can just type "Geisthülle" and not worry about the spellIDs being different for the casting spell and the buff, since Grid only cares about the name, not the spellID. If there are actually two (or more) buffs with the name "Geisthülle" but you only want to see one of them, then you will need to use a plugin that can track buffs by their spellID, such as GridStatusAurasExt. Edit: Also, the list of spells shown in the auto-complete dropdown isn't hardcoded, so there is no list I can add anything to. The first time you show the dropdown (per login session) it just asks the server for the names of all spells by their spellID. First it asks about spellID 1, then spellID 2, and keeps going until 5000 spellIDs in a row failed to return a name. Since the dropdown is designed to help users type the names of spells, not spellIDs, any duplicate names are collapsed to a single copy of the name. __________________ Author/maintainer of Grid, PhanxChat, and many more.

Thunni A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 2 Uploads: 0	Hi, i have an issue with the german language version of grid. I use the 5.2.0.1600 version and if I want to add the Buff "Geisthülle" (Spirit Shell), which is the Absorbshield a Discipline Priest can stack, it only shows the Buff which allows you to cast the Shells in the Dropdown-Menu. In other Words: please could you add the Spell-Id 114908 to the known Buffs, or is there any way to add a Aura by typing in the Spell-Id instead of the Name? Cheers

The healing bar is the semi-transparent bar that appears overlaid on the health bar when the unit has healing being cast on them. __________________ Author/maintainer of Grid, PhanxChat, and many more.

Hey, thank you very much for your reply!

Think it was an issue with the anchoring. I think I solved it by resetting anchor and position. Seems to work just fine for now. Thanks again, much appreciated!

Yet, when I move from doing 25 man raids to going solo or doing BGs, my grid will move out of place. What do I do to make it stop? Thank you!

Phanx A Pyroguard Emberseer Forum posts: 2709 File comments: 1713 Uploads: 30	Offhand I'd say it sounds like you have an ancient plugin that's not compatible with current versions of Grid and/or WoW, but without more information there's not much I can do for you. Please read the bug report instructions for some troubleshooting steps to follow to narrow down the cause of the problem. If that doesn't resolve the issue (eg. if you find the problem is an outdated plugin, then updating or removing the plugin will fix the problem) then please open a bug ticket with the info requested on that page so I can look into it. If you don't have a WowAce/Curse account and really don't want to create one, you can post a follow-up here with the info, but it's much easier for me to keep track of issues if you can submit an actual ticket. __________________ Author/maintainer of Grid, PhanxChat, and many more.

Cliffisen A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 1 Uploads: 0	Lagproblems with Grid, dont know what to do... I been using Healbot for a very long time but recently i started to feel that its missing something. I decided to try Grid + Clique AND I LOVE IT ! I have tried it out in 5 man dungeons and there it works like a charm. However last night i jumped into a Sha-, Oondasta- and Nalakgroup. Each and every time Grid caused the game to lag like hell! After the first group i checked the option "throttled something". If i didn't heal it was fine, but since that's my roll... i kind of need to heal Every time i had to ctrl+alt+delete to even get out of the game to uncheck Grid (there was that much lag). I had eventually use BlizRaidUI... shudder... Anyone have any idee whats up with my grid ?

Phanx A Pyroguard Emberseer Forum posts: 2709 File comments: 1713 Uploads: 30	If I'm understanding correctly, the layout is anchored by the TOPRIGHT point, and each group is anchored the same, so that the layout starts in the top right corner, additional units in each group appear below, and additional groups appear to the left? If that's the case, try switching the layout anchor to TOPLEFT, but keep the group anchor as TOPRIGHT. This way, if you're in a 10-man raid, group 2 will be near the edge of the screen, and group 1 will be closer to the center. If you're in a 40-man raid, group 8 will be near the edge, and group 1 will be a lot closer toward the center. If that's not the case, can you take a screenshot? As for the tab, when you say enabling the "Show Tab" option "does nothing", do you mean the tab does not appear, or you can't click on the tab? Keep in mind the tab is only visible when the layout is unlocked (the "Frame Lock" option is unchecked) -- the "Show Tab" option just lets you hide the tab without locking the frame. If the tab is visible, but you can't click on it, you likely have some other addon creating an invisible frame over the top of it. Type "/fstack" and move the cursor over the tab. Look in the frame stack tooltip and see if any frames from other addons are listed. Also, see if it still happens when all other addons are disabled. __________________ Author/maintainer of Grid, PhanxChat, and many more.

Moshne A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 4 Uploads: 0	Frequently (pretty much every time I log in) my Grid has migrated across my screen. Normally I anchor it near the left side of my monitor, but it migrates to the point that group one is at about the mid point (I use group layout, vertical, right to left.) It is inconsistent and will sometimes align itself only about 1/3 of the way, when the "intended" lock point is roughly 1/4. When I go to my /grid settings, clicking "Frame Lock" brings up the Grid tab to allow me to move it. Clicking the "Show Tab" does nothing, it won't allow me to interact with the button. edit: I suspect this has to to with periodically having more than 25 people in my raid (for world bosses, etc.) I have the "5th" group nearly on the right most side of the monitor, and when it adds a 6th group, it forces Group1 away from the anchor permanently. I guess I don't mind that behavior when there are 8 groups, but I'm not sure I want it to save that anchor point when I'm in a 10 or 25m setting (which is 90% of the time.)
