Question Grid - Layout

I like the overall idea of Grid for healers and conserving "screen real estate", and am looking for some sort of tutorial, guide, walkthrough, etc. on how to effectively configure Grid's various options (and modules).

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Tried to push through some thought on this too without much luck and myself i don't use grid so don't know much about it, but i do like its look and hope someone pushes this through.

And since there already was a thread related to healer ui's i figured i'd add the link for it aswell just in case there is some update on some other frontiers

*psst!* malcite - that's Geboran's thread.

@Geboran: Take a look through the wiki on wowace - the thread on the wowace forums is very informative, too. If you don't like the looks of Grid's Dewdrop menu, then use Niagara. Look at each of the options instead of just scanning over them. Don't get scared of all your choices - the amount of customizability is what makes Grid nice. But yeah - start with the wiki if you haven't read it yet.

Didnt check that carefully who post what, just try to answer as best as i can, but in any case nice for others to know where to look if this thread doesn't have the info needed aswell

And btw, those wiki pages that wowace aren't always that helpful, although i gotta admit that Grid's wiki is an exception to that rule. Have a look at Quartz and you see what i mean.

But as i say, Grid is actually alot more informative, but what they all have in common is actually seeing the menu in use while explaining the functions.

It just seems that, with Grid, you can configure a lot of different status indicators. I would only be interested in only a few of them (ones that I can do something about) vs. other statuses that I can't.

That's why I was interested in seeing what other healers have configured for theirs, and how to best go about doing it.

It says on the Wiki that it displays information on a priority type system, so I would want to find out -- from some field-tested veterans -- what works and what doesn't work for them.

I'm not a vetrain in healing, but I've done SFK about a dozen times with a priest, and WC twice with my shaman, and PerfectRaid works pretty good.
