oUF - General discussion

You could just tweak that with :SetHeight(). You could post a bug report and I'll have a look at it later tho'.

I'm having a mayor thig with Vericles and my pets.

If I jump on a vericle my hunter pet goes away, the thing is it shows my Verlcle as offline, so I can't see the stats on it.

is this a bug in my layout or what could it be?

You need a dummy party.

oUF:Spawn('header', 'oUF_Party'):SetAttribute('showParty', false)

Where would i put that in the code in the oUF Lua or the P3lim Lua?

I know im retarted :P

[p3lim]

You should never put anything in the oUF lua

iirc if you embed oUF properly then it doesn't really matter what changes you make to oUF.

Not too many embeds oUF though, and guessing he asked where to put that line in the first place, I doubth he knows the point of embedding it at all.

Is there a way to have It updated if I jump on a Vericle?

[haste]

You could call object:PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD() to force the frame to update. I have no idea if that will solve your issue however.

There must be some event that fires when you enter a vehicle.
Register that and hook it to the rest any of the events that will cause a 'global' update (as haste mentioned, PEW is one of them)

the only event that I can think off is UNIT_PET since that fires when a unit's pet changes, (and a vericles are shows as pets)

RegisterEvent('UNIT_PET')

So wen using UNIT_PET how would I get this to refresh the pet unitframe

somewhere, as an example, put this in your layout

oUF:RegisterEvent('UNIT_PET')
oUF.UNIT_PET = oUF.PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD

Should work

edit:

oUF:RegisterSubTypeMapping('UNIT_PET')

Might do it, not sure though.

a good idea is always to check how the standard ui does things like that .. e.g. at http://wowcompares.com/

[Quokka]

Thanks Dafire & P3lim

adding one line to the thing you posted P3lim made it work

oUF:RegisterEvent('UNIT_ENTERED_VEHICLE')
oUF.UNIT_ENTERED_VEHICLE = oUF.PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD
oUF:RegisterEvent('UNIT_PET')
oUF.UNIT_PET = oUF.PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD

Now it updates when you have a pet out and mount a vehicle and vice versa.

EDIT: the testing worked.. now it fails again

I always get a lua error (SecureHandler does not allow *blaba* in combat) when I am in combat and someone else gets invited to my party.

Is there any workaround for this? Thats the last point that does generate lua errors for my UI right now.
