I struggle with where to put my unit frames - in fact, I do not think there is a right answer. I found some great advice on the overall theory of UI placement in blogs like 'oops i hit alt+z lol' and on the forums, but I'd like to pick your brains on overall approach.
It seems like there are three popular way to place unit frames:
- Center screen to the left and right of the center
- Center screen just below the character
- Bottom of the screen as part of a larger button and info graphic
Anyone have ideas on why they use any in particular? I like the last one - putting them on the bottom like in Tuk or the others but then I cannot see my health because, well, it is at the screen bottom. I like having it all in the senter for tanking heroics, but for solo it blocks the whole screen.
Anyways, if anyone has links to general UI design idea or tips on how they see unit/target details in combat I'd love feedback.
