nUI+ Development Version 5.02.06 released...

[spiel2001]

New Release
Announcement

This update is a big update and fixes quite a few long standing issues in nUI particularly with regard to raid frame sorting and vehicle functionality. Please see the patch notes (below) for a complete list of changes.

The most important feature to mention is the new raid frame sorting and the slash command for controlling it. Raid unit frames can now be sorts by unit ID using '/nui raidsort unit' (raid1 through raid40), by raid group using '/nui raidsort group' or by player class using '/nui raidsort class'. The default behavior is to sort by raid group.

This update is the release candidate. If no significant bugs in the new changes are uncovered, the release will be cut Tuesday. I ask that everyone please update to this release and work it as much as you can. Please report any problems you encounter on nUI's support forum at http://www.wowinterface.com/forums/f...splay.php?f=86

If you have not yet gained access to the nUI+ download area, let me point out that everyone has been approved that has applied over the last couple of weeks right up until the time of this posting... if you have applied for access to the "nUI+ User Group" then you should be able to access the download area at http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/index.php?cid=137 -- Note that you do have to be logged into WoWInterface before you can access that link even if you are approved... this is a member restricted area. If you are not logged in or you have not applied for access to the nUI+ user group, you will not be able to access this link.

Thanks to everyone for the feedback, support and patience.

Scott.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 5.02.06 (Development)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

• Added a vehicle leave button to the pet/special bars for use with special mounts

• Added the vehicle seat indicator to nUI's list of managed frames and movers

• Modified nUI_UnitCasting to key on the UNIT_SPELLCAST_STOP event as the event that clears an active casting bar to overcome a change in casting event logic introduced in a prior Bliz patch that caused spamming the action bar to cancel the active cast bar even though the spell was still active.

• Modified the cooldown bar audio alert logic to only allow audio alerts to play once every two seconds and to never stack multiple audio alerts at one time (volume stack)

• Fixed a logic error in nUI_UnitAura which allowed the HOT/DOT bar to overflow its defined maximum size if that was less than the value set by '/nui maxauras {n}'

• Modified the combat log to not alter the font size when the player session starts so that player preferences are not overwritten by the nUI scale calculations

• Modified the cooldown bar to be aware of player talent spec swapping and to reset the bar when the player changes spec.

• Fixed a bug in the '/nui autogroup' logic which caused it to not default to enabled

• Added sorting of raid unit frames

• Added new slash command '/nui raidsort {unit|group|class}' to select the type of sort used on raid unit frames. The 'unit' option causes the raid unit frames to be sorted by their unit ID from raid1 to raid40. The 'group' option causes the raid unit frames to sort first by the raid group number then by player name within that group. The 'class' option causes the frames to sort first by player class, then by player name within the class

• Added a trap for an error in nUI_UnitAura where it would throw an error if the system detected an enchant on your weapon before the details of the enchant are available

For those of you who have used the nUI_Config_GUI addon to manage nUI options from the Interface->Addons window, here is a new version in which I have added the new raidSort options. You will find it in the General->Unit Frames settings.

Unfortunately Kodewulf doesn't seem to be maintaining his great config utility any more.

If you haven't used my version before, you may be interested to know it contains a GUI configuration for every slash command in nUI. This is an easier way to discover all of the great options available in nUI without scanning through the chat window.

Scott, hope you don't mind I posted this here.

Don't mind at all.

Looks like today's patch broke nui+ again. The 5.02.06 isn't working now

[spiel2001]

I'm logged in with it now. o.O

Are you sure it isn't one of your other mods that broke and it breaking nUI's load?

[farcrowe]

Sorry ... must be another mod just tried again with some turned off and it loaded.. Checking to see what did it now.
My wife and I love the UI by the way.

Ok loaded all my mods back in and all seems to work. Must have been a glitch. Sorry for the mess up.

[Zubgrub]

Agreed. Awesome UI and very well done. Keep up the good work!

I tried to fix it up to include the new Unit Frames, but was getting an error with Ace Framework. I think I know what was causing it, but if you got yours working I'll check it out!

Mine is working for both me and my wife. Make sure you don't have some other version of Ace that may be causing problems.

nyhok, I can't understand why that would be. Perhaps some other permissions for this forum or for attachments in general?
