return Hex(self.ColorGradient(min/max, 0.69, 0.31, 0.31, 0.65, 0.63, 0.35, 0.33, 0.59, 0.33))..oUF.Tags['[perhp]'](unit)
end
end
Then
Code:
oUF_cTags.lua:33: attempt to index global 'self' (a nil value)
But i guess that's not how it's supposed to be. |
You have to create a local reference to the function, or access it through oUF.ColorGradient. You should also add |r to mark the end of your color.
Another thing you should do is to use the local variables you create, and not call the Unit* function again.

self.PostUpdateHealth = updateHealth
But what if i dont have PostUpdateHealth in layout, how should i call updateName then? In some1s layout ive seen something like
self.UNIT_NAME_UPDATE(thats not exact refference =P) = updateName, but it doesnt work for me =(

The following will do what you want:
Code:
self:RegisterEvent('UNIT_NAME_UPDATE', updateName)
table.insert(self.__elements, updateName)
What this does is registering the event to your function (which makes it update if the name changes while you have the unit targeted). The second line inject your function to the table oUF uses to do full updates on a frame (which happens when a frame is shown). It's also the table oUF uses on eventless units to do updates.
