A couple of suggestions

[smurfgirlz]

Hi, I downloaded nUI+, used it for a couple days, and then sadly had to disable it for my main character shortly afterwards due to some issues where I *needed* certain aspects of my old UI. I'm going to list them here (I know I'm double, or maybe even triple posting at least one of them, sorry!) in hopes that they may be implimented at some point in the future.

1) The ability to right-click self cast. I understand clique can be used to offset this feature, and while I had a mouse with 8 buttons on it this was fine with me, but the untimely demise of my mouse made clique a complete disaster. Using clique with only 2 mouse buttons means I am unable to simply select a target, or to do basic group functions such as inspect another player, or leave a group. Yes, the default UI has a feature to use alt-click as self cast modifier, however I find myself running around alot while healing (Hodir, Thorim gauntlet, Freya are just examples where it is literally impossible for me at least to stand still for relatively long periods of time) and I need to be able to just one click shield / renew myself in these situations while still running around. This means I have one hand "driving" my toon and I'm clicking to cast spells. And I honestly don't have the macro space to make a right click macro for every spell I use in a raid setting. ><

2) The ability to view HP (in a <number of actual hp> / <total hp>) on the unitframes / raidframes. This feature is available even in basic blizzard frames, so maybe I am just to dense to find it in nUI+? Yes I know the HuD has functionability via a graphical interface, however I've found that I need to glance at my raid frames and see who is down how much health - so I know if I should just shield them and let a raid healer heal them up, or if a shield won't cover the incomming dmg and they need to have a pom tossed on them until a raid healer can get to them. I am the only disc spec priest in my guild atm, so I find myself doing alot of raid shielding while offhealing the MTs, so numbers are kinda important for me personally. If I spend enough time on it maybe I could get used to just having percentages of health? Still would be great to be able to see the actual numbers, so if this feature is available could someone pls tell me how to find it?

Another thing (and Im pretty sure this can be changed, I just can't find the right thing to type in) is that when I'm in a raid, I seem to have no order to my frames at all. There is no sorting for the groups that I've found, however this is easily corrected by just downloading and using Grid...however that moves my unitframes from the center of the screen. lol

The ordering of the raid is a bug at the moment. There are commands to reorder them but they don't seem to be working. Scott is aware of the problem and has added it to his list of things to look into.

The clique with 2 buttons not being useful is my scenario too and promptly removed it and have gone back to healbot. I now have my left, middle and right mouse buttons configured with my most needed spells with less used ones keyed to Ctrl and Alt versions. I have 3 dps/heal combo toons so try to have similar spell types mapped similarly to make it easier jumping from toon to toon without worrying about relearning which keys do what.

Viewing the HP in the unit frames is possible if I remember rightly via editing the lua layout files for nUI. At least until Scott has finished the Layout Editing system.

Just to address this one quickly... all of the unit frames display health as current/max to the best of my knowledge. At a minimum, they display current health as an actual number.

The raid sort issue is already covered and the action bars are in the process of maturing, so extra features like right-click self cast, help/harm, and all that are coming in due time.

In Party, it only shows Current HP. I think it would be better to scrap % and just have <current hp> / <total hp>. Maybe do the same for Mana in a party aswell.

You can do that yourself... there's quite a few posts on the how, already, but all the same... edit [ Interface > AddOns > nUI > Layouts > Default > UnitPanels > {panel mode} > nUI_UnitSkin_{panel mode}_{unit id}.lua ] and locate the sections for ["Health"] and ["Power"] -- you'll see sections for cur_health, pct_health, cur_power and pct_power -- if you change "pct_health" to "max_heath" and change "pct_power" to "max_power" it will replace the percent health and power values with their maximum values. All that remains is to play with the xOfs and yOfs values in the respective sections to move the values to where you want them on the screen.

Are those changes something that can be implemented into nUI Config GUI?

[spiel2001]

No... they aren't, as they have to be processed when the layout engine is building the UI.

Oh pooh
