It's not an icon, but rather a font-set which is comprised of only symbols. Originally (when i submitted this idea to Freebaser) I wanted to use something that would remain the same overall shape as incremental changes affect it.
PizzaDude-Bullets fullfiled that need. However I grew to dislike that it was far too large and unscalable (scale it too far and you would need to start providing xOffset & yOffset options because it would creep outside the relative position)
I moved back the initial font i was using "Visitor-TT1-BRK" because it was pixel perfect. It scales perfectly and still has various symbol glyphs.
Currently i am using "·" for all the indicators except the top middle section which i set aside for survivability auras which have a long cooldown before they can be applied again.
In that spot i use different symbols to indicate which aura it is thats in effect.

UnitAura's 4th return value is a count. So I could just include that by counting within
Code:
["BL"] = "[rnw][gotn][rejuv][regrow][wg]"
or something. You've given me a great deal of help without realising how much. Thanks very very much! |
Two things :
the 4th value , the count return value is how many stacks of a particular aura you have.
you would be editing a code block similar to this one :
Code:
oUF.Tags["[rnw]"] = function(u) return UnitAura(u, "Renew") and "|cff33FF33·|r" or "" end
oUF.TagEvents["[rnw]"] = "UNIT_AURA"
example, lifebloom can stack to three, grace to three, etc etc.
here is my grace tag :
Code:
oUF.Tags["[grace]"] = function(u)
local _,_,_,c = UnitAura(u, "Grace");
if(not NeedsIndicators(u))then return end
return c and "|cff006699"..string.rep("·",c).."|r" or ""
end
oUF.TagEvents["[grace]"] = "UNIT_AURA"
