-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 5.03.00
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

* Added a new slash command '/nui mountscale {n}' which allows for setting a scale on
the special mount / vehicle seat indicator. This option sets the scale for the seat
indicator displayed at the top center of the display when you are on a special mount.
The default is '/nui mountscale 1' where 0.5 < {n} < 1.5 -- values less than 1.0
cause the indicator to be smaller, values of {n} > 1.0 increase its size.

* Removed advanced objectives quest watch frame from list of managed Bliz frames... the
frame is already movable and sizable, no need to manage it.

* Added an event handler to trap when the player changes spec's if dual spec'd -- does
not yet work for party/raid members... only the player itself.

* Fixed a bug in the unit frame tooltips for raid unit frames that caused the mouseover
to display information for the wrong player after the raid frames were sorted

* Added a vehicle leave button to the pet/special bars for use with special mounts

* Added the vehicle seat indicator to nUI's list of managed frames and movers

* Modified nUI_UnitCasting to key on the UNIT_SPELLCAST_STOP event as the event that
clears an active casting bar to overcome a change in casting event logic introduced
in a prior Bliz patch that caused spamming the action bar to cancel the active cast
bar even though the spell was still active.

* Modified the cooldown bar audio alert logic to only allow audio alerts to play once
every two seconds and to never stack multiple audio alerts at one time (volume stack)

* Fixed a logic error in nUI_UnitAura which allowed the HOT/DOT bar to overflow its
defined maximum size if that was less than the value set by '/nui maxauras {n}'

* Modified the combat log to not alter the font size when the player session starts
so that player preferences are not overwritten by the nUI scale calculations

* Modified the cooldown bar to be aware of player talent spec swapping and to reset
the bar when the player changes spec.

* Fixed a bug in the '/nui autogroup' logic which caused it to not default to enabled

* Added sorting of raid unit frames

* Added new slash command '/nui raidsort {unit|group|class}' to select the type of sort
used on raid unit frames. The 'unit' option causes the raid unit frames to be sorted
by their unit ID from raid1 to raid40. The 'group' option causes the raid unit frames
to sort first by the raid group number then by player name within that group. The
'class' option causes the frames to sort first by player class, then by player name
within the class

* Added a trap for an error in nUI_UnitAura where it would throw an error if the system
detected an enchant on your weapon before the details of the enchant are available

* Fixed a logic error in the action bars which caused the buttons to be marked as
unavailable when they were not and visa versa.

* Updated Simplified Chinese localization files (thank you Yanwin)

* Updated Traditional Chinese localization files (thank you Yanwin)

* Fixed a major bug introduced in 5.02.02 which prevented the action buttons from
updating when you switched druid forms, warrior stances, rogue stealth, mounted or
dismounted a vehicle while in combat

* Fixed a bug in the new action bar code which prevented the ctrl-alt-right-click key
binding menu from working

* Facepalm -- I forgot to remove the comment from the vehicle menu bar after testing

* Fixed a layering bug in the combat log which caused the combat log filter buttons to
be under the combat log text

* Added vehicle seats to the main action bar when mounted

* Added vehicle exit button to the main action bar when mounted

* Added a check in the range indicator engine to ensure that all spells used in the
calculation have a max range that is greater than zero in an attempt to fix a range
bug introduced in 3.1 where spells are flagged as having range, but do not actually.

* Fixed a logic error in the range calculation

* Recoded the nUI action bars to try and resolve a taint issue.

* Modified the bar display logic so that possession or mounting a vehicle will override
action bar pages 2 though 5 so no matter which bar is the active page, it will now
display the spells for the possessed mob or vehicle. Note that shift-2 through
shift-5 and the action bar scroll buttons no longer work when you are in possession
of another mob/player or mounted on a vehicle.

* Added awareness of the presence of Chatter and disabled nUI's management of the chat
frame edit box if Chatter is present

* Added Russian localization (thank you Vlad)

* Attempted fix for filtering between player spells and non-player spells

* First development release for WoW patch 3.1 on the live realms

* Updated for PTR patch 0.1.0.9767

* Fixed a bug in nUI_UnitLevel thrown when levelling a character using either the
Simplified Chinese or Traditional Chinese localization file

* Updated for PTR patch 0.1.0.9757

* Added support for displaying agro feedback on more than one unit for off-tanks and
agro grabs, threat wipes, etc.

* Added nUI_UnitThreat module to track threat on all active and available mobs for all
relevant unit IDs -- not yet added to the HUD however

* Fixed a bug in the '/nui feedback' slash command that threw an error if no argument
was given

* Fixed a scaling bug in the bag bar available slots/stock count text

* Added unit frame tooltips to the same control group as action bar tooltips so the
'/nui combattips' option turns their display on and off depending on whether you
are in combat or out of combat. Prevents tooltips from interfering with clicking
during combat. '/nui combattips' toggles this behavior on and off.

* Updated for PTR patch 0.1.0.9742

* completed compliance with Blizzard's new add-on development guidelines

* Introduced nUI+

* Ported nUI to PTR patch 0.1.0.9704 compatibility

* Fixed a bug in the Battlefield Minimap integration resulting from the new patch

* Changed HUD casting bars to show casting time rather than percent by default

* Change player, target and focus unit frame casting bars to show time rather than percent

* Changed casting bar time display to show tenths of a second

* Updated TOC for WoW patch 3.1

* Changed talent spec module to ignore requests for build info on the mouseover unit
which apparently causes conflicts with the tooltip engine when the player is trying
to inspect their own gear

* Added a block gap between the stance bar and pet bar when both are displayed together

* Updated nUI_UnitAura to reflect changes in the UnitAura() API return values in 3.1

* Updated French localization file (thank you Arnaud)

* Updated Spanish localization file (thank you José)
