Stance Indicator showing around the edge of the screen
Stance Indicator
A simple add-on to visually let you know what stance you're currently in.
Sometimes it can be hard to keep track of your current stance and instead of having to look around for icons or abilities, this add-on will give you the chance to, out of the corner of your eye, tell what stance you are currently in.
It will draw a border around your entire screen in a color representing your current stance. Default colors are:
- Blue is battle stance.
- Red is berserker stance.
- Green is defensive stance.
Some features:
- Can be set to only show when you're in combat.
- Can be set to only show when you have a non-friendly target.
- The color and alpha for each stance can be changed.
- A fade effect that's shown on stance changes can be enabled/disabled.
- The fade effect can have its own texture and alpha value (color value is still based on the stance).
- Multiple textures to use for the borders, both normal and widescreen versions included.
- Options for handling each frame's advanced settings to control how they're shown in relation to other UI elements.
To access the options just type "/si" from within the game.

Originally posted by jarakai Personally, i find the colours fairly odd to use for those stances. The way that makes more sense (to me at least, following the generally colouring of the buttons and some bizarre thought in my head) is to switch the colours of Defensive and battle stance. Blue seems more defendy to me... just my thoughts. Otherwise, Great addon
Should be easy to switch the colors to your liking. Just check the .lua file and you should see, near the top, some lines defining the colors for each stance. Just switch them or change them to what you like.

I've just uploaded a new version that works with 2.4.
It also has a stance change effect now (can be disabled).
Currently there's a lot more options in the command list, but nearly none of the new ones work.
I've been fixing add-ons the entire day and I've had enough by now So I'll get around to enabling (or rather making) the rest of them one of the coming days.
Might also add some more texture options for variety. Suggestions are welcome
Originally posted by deroth This addon does exactly what I've been looking for. One suggestion would be to make the frame thicker during stance change, and go back to normal in a second, so it's easier to see when you actually change stances.
Will look into doing something like that as soon as I get the time
