lua problem

[Quokka]

Why does this not work.
anyone know how to fix it

A1 = CreateFrame("Frame", nil, self)
A1:SetParent(UIParent)
A1:SetFrameStrata(BACKGROUND)
A1:SetBackdrop({bgFile = "Interface\\AddOns\\AI-Suite\\Textures\\A1.tga"})
A1:SetHeight(80)
A1:SetWidth(512)
A1:SetPoint("BOTTOM",-0,-1);
A1:SetFrameLevel(0)

A2 = CreateFrame("Frame", nil, self)
A2:SetParent(A1)
A2:SetFrameStrata(BACKGROUND)
A2:SetBackdrop({bgFile = "Interface\\AddOns\\AI-Suite\\Textures\\A1L.tga"})
A2:SetHeight(80)
A2:SetWidth(128)
A2:SetPoint("LEFT",0,-1);
A2:SetFrameLevel(0)

A3 = CreateFrame("Frame", nil, self)
A3:SetParent(A1)
A3:SetFrameStrata(BACKGROUND)
A3:SetBackdrop({bgFile = "Interface\\AddOns\\AI-Suite\\Textures\\A1R.tga"})
A3:SetHeight(80)
A3:SetWidth(128)
A3:SetPoint("RIGHT",0,-1);
A3:SetFrameLevel(0)

any sugestions

A1 = CreateFrame("Frame", nil, self)
A1:SetParent(UIParent)

The third arg to createframe is the parentframe.

Replace your two lines with

A1 = CreateFrame("Frame", nil, UIParent)

Got the normal state working.
But I must be missing something.

anyone knows what to do with the events

AI1 = CreateFrame("Frame", nil, UIParent)
AI1:SetFrameStrata(BACKGROUND)
if UnitInVehicle("player") then
	AI1:SetBackdrop({bgFile = "Interface\\AddOns\\AI-Suite\\Art\\V1.tga"})
else
	AI1:SetBackdrop({bgFile = "Interface\\AddOns\\AI-Suite\\Art\\A1.tga"})
end
AI1:SetHeight(80)
AI1:SetWidth(512)
AI1:SetPoint("BOTTOM",-0,-1)
AI1:SetFrameLevel(0)

if not UnitInVehicle("player") then
	AI2 = CreateFrame("Frame", nil, UIParent)
	AI2:SetFrameStrata(BACKGROUND)
	AI2:SetBackdrop({bgFile = "Interface\\AddOns\\AI-Suite\\Art\\A1L.tga"})
	AI2:SetHeight(80)
	AI2:SetWidth(128)
	AI2:SetPoint("RIGHT", AI1, "LEFT", 0, 0)
	AI2:SetFrameLevel(0)

	AI3 = CreateFrame("Frame", nil, UIParent)
	AI3:SetFrameStrata(BACKGROUND)
	AI3:SetBackdrop({bgFile = "Interface\\AddOns\\AI-Suite\\Art\\A1R.tga"})
	AI3:SetHeight(80)
	AI3:SetWidth(128)
	AI3:SetPoint("LEFT", AI1, "RIGHT", 0, 0)
	AI3:SetFrameLevel(0)
end

AI1:RegisterEvent('UNIT_ENTERED_VEHICLE')
AI1:RegisterEvent('UNIT_EXITED_VEHICLE')

AI1:SetScript("OnEvent", function(self, event, ...)
    if event == "UNIT_VEHICLE_ENTERED" then
        --show Vehicle UF
    elseif event == "UNIT_VEHCILE_EXITED" then
        --show normal UF
    end

You Don't register your Frame to listen to any events... Use calls like

Frame:RegisterEvent('EVENTNAME')

To actually listen to events before the SetScript-call.
