Hmm what do you mean ?

Anyway, i just did a quick try using yours slightly modified, but i still have the same issue, the bar is correctly custom colored but the name has the default blizzard happiness colors, here it is

local function UpdateColor(self, unit)
	local color
	local _, class = UnitClass(unit)

	if(UnitIsTapped(unit) and not UnitIsTappedByPlayer(unit)) then
		return self['SetTextColor'](self, unpack(oUF.colors.tapped))
	elseif(UnitIsDead(unit) or UnitIsGhost(unit) or not UnitIsConnected(unit)) then
		return self['SetTextColor'](self, unpack(oUF.colors.disconnected))
	elseif(unit =='pet' and GetPetHappiness()) then
		return self['SetTextColor'](self, unpack(oUF.colors.happiness[GetPetHappiness()]))
	elseif(UnitIsPlayer(unit)) then
		return self['SetTextColor'](self, unpack(oUF.colors.class[class]))
	else
		color = FACTION_BAR_COLORS[UnitReaction(unit, 'player')]
	end

	if(color) then self:SetTextColor(color.r, color.g, color.b) end
end

The updated version is almost ready, i'll upload it this afternoon.

Ive been using oUF for quite a while with Roth's UI, and after updating to 1.3.1 today, my bars seem to be all a mess, while selecting myself i doesnt show my name and same with mobs arent displaying correctly, is there a line of code that can restore these names and proper working ?

dont know if this error code would help or not but i keep getting

oUF-1.3.1\ouf.lua:94: attempt to call field '?' (a nil value)

[coree]

since oUF 1.3 the player hpbar will swap to the vehicle healthbar when i am entering a vehicle. is it possible to show the buffs of my vehicle when the vehicle healthbar is shown and to hide the buffs when the player hpbar is shown ?

[backslash83]

Hi all, i don't know much about LUA coding, just starting out, but i'm trying to modify a layout (lyn's) to show buffs under the player frame, and while i've been able to show them, i'm searching for a way to remove a buff when i right click on the icon so i can get rid of buffalo, is there any smart way of doing so? I really don't know where to start...

You defined the table "colors" as a local, so obviously you won't get it if you call "oUF.colors" or "self.colors". Just do:

colorA = colors.happiness[GetPetHappiness()]

Also, when defining your custom colors, you don't need to do "oUF.colors.something = whatever"; just do "colors.something = whatever".

[Caellian]

Thanks a lot Phanx, fixed it.
Not quite sure what's the improvement compared to the way i was doing it but the result is the same and it looks more clear so

I'have a problem with Caellian Layoutfor Death Knigth?

You obviously aren't using the latest version, anyway if you want to customize the DK runes you have to use another addon/plugin, like oUF_Runed for example.

On the oUF P3lim page, there's a SS that has the action bars with some generated buff/debuffs there. How might I go about replicating that?

And (again on the oUF P3lim), is there any ButtonFacade skin that matches the provided one, and if not, how can I modify a given one to match?

[st0nedpenguin]

Apologies if this has already been mentioned but I skimmed the thread and didn't spot it.

Is it possible to position raid frames differently depending on the number of people in the raid?

What I'm wanting is something similar to this:

25 man raid

frame1 frame2 frame3 frame4 frame5

40 man raid

frame1 frame2 frame3 frame4
frame5 frame6 frame7 frame8

And no, I have no idea where I picked up those borders, but I intend to change them anyways, to match ButtonFacade: Caith

Take a look at Nivaya's Layout, he has raidframes for healers and another for DDs. I think that would be a good startingpoint for testing.

And that would be awesome (Caith is what I use now, with no gloss).

I hate gloss :F

You replace the first line with the second.

Ah, in the oUF folder not p3lim. That took me a second >.>. Thank you!

And yes, gloss is no good.

I have a question about this:

	 - filter
		- 2.x: Expects a boolean. (Default: nil)
		- 3.x: Expects a string with filter. See the UnitAura[1] documentation for
		more information.

It reads to me as if I could now set any filter that UnitAura() allows. I just can't seem to find how that would work...
Could anyone post me a piece of code that selects aura's by name for example?

Or am I getting it wrong and is it simply not possible without altering aura.lua?

You shouldn't alter aura.lua, ever. What you can do however is insert your own system instead.

The filter that oUF uses is the third argument of UnitAura, which means it's called like this: UnitAura(unit, index, filter). Selecting by name is called in a different matter and not supported by oUF (ie. UnitAura(unit, spell, spellRank).
