oUF - Layout discussion

more combopoints
this looks about how i want it, i already got the dots working but cant get number and dots showing at the same time.


I have tried to combine both codes but without luck

if unit=="target" and playerClass == "ROGUE" or playerClass == "DRUID" then
 local cparr = {}
  for i = 1, 5 do
   cparr[i] = ccs:CreateTexture(nil, 'OVERLAY')
   cparr[i]:SetTexture('Interface\\AddOns\\oUF_Brun\\textures\\combo')
   cparr[i]:SetWidth(10)
   cparr[i]:SetHeight(10)
   if(i == 1) then
     cparr[i]:SetPoint('RIGHT', ccs, 'RIGHT')
   else
     cparr[i]:SetPoint('RIGHT', cparr[i-1], 'LEFT')
   end
 end
 self.CPoints = cparr
 local cpoints = hp:CreateFontString(nil, 'OVERLAY')
 cpoints:SetPoint('RIGHT', self, 'CENTER', 0, 0)
 cpoints:SetFont(FONT, 20, 'OUTLINE')
 cpoints:SetTextColor(1,1,1)
 cpoints = cparr  --I guess this is where I'm doing something completly wrong
 self.CPoints.unit = 'player'
end

also im wondering if its normal that targettarget and targettargettarget cant be clicked ?

[Aesyl]

The way combo points are implemented in oUF, you can't do both. You'll have to either edit your local copy of cpoints.lua or ask Haste for that feature.

-- From cpoints.lua

if(#cpoints == 0) then
	cpoints:SetText((cp > 0) and cp)
else
	for i=1, MAX_COMBO_POINTS do
		if(i <= cp) then
			cpoints[i]:Show()
		else
			cpoints[i]:Hide()
		end
	end
end

Got a proper raid dropdown now, here is the function for whoever wants it:

local function menu(self)
	if(self.unit:match('party')) then
		ToggleDropDownMenu(1, nil, _G['PartyMemberFrame'..self.id..'DropDown'], 'cursor')
	else
		FriendsDropDown.unit = self.unit
		FriendsDropDown.id = self.id
		FriendsDropDown.initialize = RaidFrameDropDown_Initialize
		ToggleDropDownMenu(1, nil, FriendsDropDown, 'cursor')
	end
end

also working on MT&MA headers

I'm sorry if I'm stupid but I cannot find this anywhere. I just downloaded this addon and a layout oUF_Atrophia

I extracted both to my addons folder and both are checked on my addons list. But for some reason I dont get any change from the normal bliz UI. Is there somewhere in the oUF code I have to change to use a seperate layout? Please Help.

[Frayol]

In your addons section at character selection tick the "Load out of date AddOns" option as oUF_Atrophia hasn't had an updated TOC yet.

[Zokudu]

Its ticked and still doesnt work. Anything else I could try?

Its not updated, there is probably something wrong with it thats keeping it from loading.

Just to make sure, those will be exactly like Blizzard MT and MA ?
There's no way to have them behave like Ora2 MT list and MT targets list ?
Not sure but i think that's why i was told a plugin was required.

Blizzard ones ye

[Caellian]

Aah, for one second i really had hope

Anyway, is it possible to spawn its target, the same way party targets works ?

Something 'like'

local tanktarget = {}
tanktarget = oUF:Spawn('maintanktarget', 'oUF_MainTankTarget')
tanktarget:SetPoint('TOPLEFT', maintank, 'TOPRIGHT', 5, 0)

Hey folks. Hopefully a quick question, I'm using a ridiculously modified version of p3lim's layout, but my question is sufficiently general I thought this was a better place to ask.

How do I define names for the frames created by a layout? I ask since I can't disable Clique from acting on frames unless they have a registered name, which means I can't access any of the right click menus, and typing /script LeaveParty() is getting kind of old

Thanks.

[haste]

oUF:Spawn is defined as the following:

:Spawn(unit, name, template, disableBlizz)

[Zokudu]

Ah you guys were right. I'm using p3lim's layouts right now and I love it just got to modify a few things. Thanks for your help.

[Joanna]

Many thanks. Not entirely sure how I managed to overlook that one...

[lodewijk]

first of all let me apologise for disturbing the debates here. i am not a programmer, have no clue about lua nor would i want to have that. point is i really like some of the work that has been done with ouf. i would really like to use some of them in my ui. and thats precisely my concern with ouf, i can not use them in my own ui because the layout is forced upon me (again, remember i dont now anything about lua nor would i want that). i cant change where elements go.

so my wish would be for someone to program something of a setup-gui. just to move elements (player, target, party etc.) around so they fit into my ui. is this at all possible? if so would it have a major impact on existing work? and last but not least, is there anyone who would take this undertaking upon him/herself?

to close of i would like to say there are many wow-players i know out there who like me have no understanding of lua and really dont want or dont know how to edit lue files but still like some of the frames that have been made so far but cant/wont use them for reasons i mentioned above.

thank you for reading.

[p3lim]

Its possible, and if im not wrong, someone is already developing a layout based on ingame options and savedvariables

im using this to set pvp icon, might be overkill or completly wrong way of doing it but it looks nice here

local brunPVP = function(unit)
	isfaction = false
	local isfaction = UnitFactionGroup(unit)
	if isfaction and (UnitIsPVP(unit)) then
		isfaction = faction
	end
end

self.PvP = self.Health:CreateTexture(nil, 'OVERLAY')
if isfaction == 'Horde' then
	self.PvP:SetTexCoord(0.08, 0.58, 0.045, 0.545)
elseif isfaction == 'Alliance' then
	self.PvP:SetTexCoord(0.07, 0.58, 0.06, 0.57)
else
	self.PvP:SetTexCoord(0.05, 0.605, 0.015, 0.57)
end	
self.PvP:SetHeight(22)
self.PvP:SetWidth(22)
self.PvP:SetPoint('TOPRIGHT', 15, 10)
self.brunPVP = brunPVP

that is good news indeed. i hope to see results from that soon. as i said, i really like some of the work done with ouf.

[duhwhat]

is there any way to group your debuffs at the beginning of the debuff list?

[zork]

I had an issue with pets and color. I think it has something to do with that pets need some time to spawn when you dismount or get it out of the stable. I colorize my health orb inside the UpdateHealth func.

What finally worked for me was to write an exception. If none of the conditions gave me a result I set the color to (0,1,0,1). This fixed it for me.

  local function updateHealth(self, event, unit, bar, min, max)
    
    ...
    
    if UnitIsPlayer(unit) then
      if RAID_CLASS_COLORS[select(2, UnitClass(unit))] then
        local color = RAID_CLASS_COLORS[select(2, UnitClass(unit))]
        self.Health.Filling:SetVertexColor(color.r, color.g, color.b,1)
      end
    elseif unit == "pet" and UnitExists("pet") and GetPetHappiness() then
      local happiness, _, _ = GetPetHappiness()
      local color = colors2.happiness[happiness]
      self.Health.Filling:SetVertexColor(color.r, color.g, color.b,1)
    else
      local color = FACTION_BAR_COLORS[UnitReaction(unit, "player")]
      if color then
        self.Health.Filling:SetVertexColor(color.r, color.g, color.b,1)
      else
        self.Health.Filling:SetVertexColor(0,1,0,1)
      end
    end
    
  end
