Lucidity

"I'm NOT any kind of coder" made. Treat it as is please.

This will not work with pet action bar.

Lucidity - Simplifies the default bars. No, it won't make the bars transparent but the artworks.

I like the default action bars' functions because it's fairly enough for me. But hey, I don't like its looking so I wrote this one.
This addon will "add" almost nothing but simplifies the bars as I like to see. Nothing is special but I hope you find it natural and handy.
Maybe this addon is not "super-tiny" anymore but it eats low amount of memory and is almost nothing about CPU time. Yes, because it does almost nothing.

Any thoughts, ideas and surely any helps are welcome. Please leave your comments.

Configuration

There's no in-game config but you can edit the lua file for few options easily. You'll see these options at the top of the Lucidity.lua file.

Please note

WoW's graphic engine sometimes does odd work on small frames like xp/rep bars from this addon. Adjust the "scale" in Lucidity.lua file to make it fit with your UI scale. (I'm using the minimum UI scale)

Since this addon does only simplify the default action bars, any addons for it should work.

If you have time to spare, plz try 081215 (not 081215a) and let me know how bad it is. To lanacan Thanks for your long support. I heard something wrong with pet actionbar that I want to fix but no info for me atm. Maybe a screen shot? To Hotcooler You mean the aligning in "no-compact" is strange? If so, that makes me cry. In fact there is almost nothing changed from previous one at the part. I will look into it anyway.

Hotcooler A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 1 File comments: 22 Uploads: 1	I'd say it's now officially broken. It's looking really strange. Alligning is strange. IMO just bring up previous version, add moveable and scalable bag/char/macro frame to compact modes, fix small issues nad here you go. Not this one. This is one hell of confusing changes BTW thanks for your work. Last edited by Hotcooler : 12-16-2008 at 03:45 AM.

lanacan Random, Crazy, Mental... Forum posts: 78 File comments: 227 Uploads: 11	I want to just say thanks for all the work! I miss the simpler lucidity that i fell in love with. This last update and the previous where the pet bar was miss aligned have been my least favorite though. As a pet class player, having to fix the pet bar alignment before I can play using Lucidity has not been fun to do. You last version was not too bad to fix, but this one is confusing when reading your configuration notes. I do know that English is not your best language, but in previous version it was easy to figure out what you were doing and how to change things. This time though i decided not to use your latest version as your LUA notes confused me. (I'm tired form doing lots of school work on top of it).

Thanks for your comments, guys.

Sorry for delay because ... I'm on the wotlk! So I'm busy to level but I can test it by myself now.

Quote:

And why remove what is allready there? I'm sure someone will find it handy.

That's (hopefully) true. But since Lucidity want to reuse the default UI, something "unnatural" way makes me wander "Is is really needed?" For instance, 3rows style (style_Wavelet) is unnatural thing for me. 3rows itself is ok but the problem is about stance/shape/pet bar. These bars were built to be above 2rows' height by default. I know I can do it anyway but I think Lucidity is already too big for its simple (does anyone remember the old Lucidity that uses memory 0.5kb?) job.

"So, why did you add that once?" Yea, I'm sorry about that. I did add it because of my thoughtlessness. Pre wotlk, the main action bar is more static object but not now ...

You can try rBars2 that is really superior to Lucidity. And I heard that Roath may rewrite his old one that should be nice.

For the menu bar that I never want to have. But for common sense I think I have to add them.

(Oh my ... I hate the lack of my English ability)

Thank you for all the ppl that using this and helped me!

I would like to mount it to the bottom left of my MultiBarLeft but I can't seem to encourage it to go there. Any advice on how to fix this? Thank you!

I'd like to have Blizz layout. I used to it. And it's pretty handy when scaled down xD

And why remove what is allready there? I'm sure someone will find it handy.

Update: And it's not working with horses... But after you get off the horse the interface will pop back.

I'm not on wotlk still but as I can tell by reading their codes, it's good to disable the offset I think. Yes, it's sad to me but it makes things more simple. I want to do a couple things in a week hopefully. - Unload the textures (not vehicle's) we do not want to see instead of hiding. It may save memory. (They said so at least) - Hide the vehicle's textures. (They will unload them when you get off the vehicle btw) - Scale down the vehicle's buttons if it's needed. - Disable "Blizz" and "3-rows" layouts because nobody (include me) want to use them I think. One more thing I don't like to say that I may disable the latency bar to keep consistency. If you need it badly, please let me know. I know I can add it with own codes (means not re-use the default) but I'm afraid that it will be a kind of superfluity. Btw I'm using the Lunchtime along with Lucidity and it's working fine for me still.

I just installed Lich King the other day so I have a lot to explore... When I enter the tank, hotbars disappear... Unfortunately, they stay gone after exiting the vehicle also. I have to reload UI to get actionbars back and when I do, they look OK. Re-loading while in the vehicle does nothing tho. Having watched my wife play, and she does not use any UI addons at all, the actionbars changes completely with a vehicle. New frame, new background, new orientation and size of the buttons/keys on actionbar.

villiv A Defias Bandit Forum posts: 3 File comments: 24 Uploads: 4	Maybe I had settle down. I want to keep this method but who knows? I really want to know about vehicle which I don't know at all. And about pet classes(hnt & lock). Please let me know if you have any inconvenience. Btw, thanks so much to ppl on this forum. Without your comment, I won't upload this.

Please re-download it and add 2 lines like this. (line 230 to 241 @ ActionBar.lua)

Btw I don't use these MicroButtons and you need them only for the latency bar?
If so, my next change may not let you down but if not ... anyway, I want to keep it simple.

And yes, some of you know I can't get wotlk at 11/13 ...

Now with the changes suggested, the microbuttons are completely gone, hehe.

Take your time buddy. It will be a few weeks before I get expansion myself. I'll just be playing with my alts until then so it's not a big deal.

AnElk A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 50 Uploads: 0	hehe no worries buddy. I can't get the expansion either... I live in USA and that makes it real hard to get expansion since Blizzard Euro are morons and do not have online shopping like they do here in US. In fact, I wont even be playing a lot until a friend from Sweden comes to visit me here in US but that won't be until x-mas. Yes, I hate expansions - they always come out to soon for us casual players that are not in a hardcore raidguild with the best gear. I have never even seen Gruul or the Black Temple, or the Sunwell raid instance. So many things I won't never see now with everyone in Northrend. The only good thing I have to say about WotlK so far is that for once, it didn't completely destroy all the work I have done on my three level 70. The -uber- green items are supposedly not to be seen until level 74, until then, our epic gear that we worked so hard for to get will still be somewhat good stuff for a few more levels. --- End of Rant --- See you all in Northrend somewhere after x-mas or new years... Until then I will only play my little alts I think so I'll still keep an eye on this addon and the others I use. Last edited by AnElk : 11-13-2008 at 04:04 PM.

Every time I enter or exit an instance or use HS the microbuttons slide to the left behind lower right actionbar. I would provide a screenshot of it but this stupid website doesn't allow pictures, only hyperlinks and I don't have a website to put things like that up on. LOL
