BuffFrame:SetPoint()

[Waverian]

I'm attempting to reposition the player buff/debuff/itemenchant frame.

BuffFrame:ClearAllPoints()
BuffFrame:SetPoint("TOPRIGHT", "TemporaryEnchantFrame", "TOPLEFT", -50, 50);

But it's failed miserably in doing anything at all. I also tried :SetPoint for TemporaryEnchantFrame because BuffFrame is parented to it in BuffFrame.lua, but it also didn't produce any results.

Any tips on how to actually move the player buff frames?

This is because Blizzard uses BuffFrame:SetPoint() in an OnUpdate script.
http://wdnaddons.com/2418124/FrameXML/BuffFrame.lua

So you can either hook Blizzards code and muck about with it or,

BuffFrame:SetPoint("TOPRIGHT", "TemporaryEnchantFrame", "TOPLEFT", -50, 50)
BuffFrame.SetPoint = function() end

Take a look at the mod Buffalo to see how it does it. http://files.wowace.com/Buffalo/Buffalo.zip

I always wondered about this. Also is it possible to change the buffs location for each toon in a different place. I've got 7 70s and they all have different ui's.
