I've only been able to test it with two dungeons but I think its safe to say that the Aura's setting is what is making it lag. When I disabled it I had no lag or frame drops of any sort.

I think the constant updating of the aura frames especially when you have a ton of buffs and what not is causing the freezes. I hope this info helps a little, I can go without it for right now but it doesn't look as awesome without the borders :D.

Thanks for testing, this is useful info. I'm looking at the code a few other buff & bar addons, and think I might have a better approach worked out. I hope to have an update in the next few days.

Is there any way to lessen the cpu usage of this. I've been toying with add-ons all day only to find that this add-on is causing frame rate drops in the middle of raids and dungeons.

I really love how small and simple the add-on is but it seems to be affecting my gameplay sadly.

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the feedback, I'll see what I can do. I haven't had much free time of late unfortunately. :(

Do you have the auras feature enabled while in dungeons? I haven't dungeoned in awhile (I don't do much but play with my UI anymore :p) and I'm curious how much the aura skinning might be a factor, and what difference in CPU utilization there might be (in a dungeon) with the aura feature disabled.

Are you using a CPU monitoring addon, and if so what kind of numbers are you seeing?

I do have the auras feature enabled. In the LFR that I just did I actually was able to see what the add-on was doing while I was lagging. When the screen froze anything with a border actually disappeared (except for the border). The usage I'm seeing with several cpu/profiler add ons was from 0.02 to 0.03. These numbers don't seem very big but not even my Healbot add-on gets that high.

I can try this again with auras disabled and get back to you.

Update pending approval. Code now ignores the ExtraActionButton, so errors on load are gone, but haven't tested an actual extra button scenario (dragon soul?)...should remain unskinned, but error free (I think).

EDIT: Another update (v1.1.3) for more ExtraActionButtonShenanigans :(

Thanks for the party pet stuff. The more I test the castbars I'm seeing having consistency issues..I got some work to do there. :(

I'll look at the other items tonight hopefully.

Now I'm puzzled...my cb icons remain uncolored with your UI:

You're seeing the problem with just the focus castbar, not the target castbar right?

Yeah, if i add both codes (tar+focus) the focus icon s greyed, if iy just add the tar codes, the tar icon is colored. :confused::confused::confused:

Here is my CB code (not up to date in my "release")

Rufio — Sat, 26 Nov 2011 11:45:16 +0000

Target & focus castbar textures (put anywhere in "objects" table):

select(3,TargetFrameSpellBar:GetRegions()),
select(3,FocusFrameSpellBar:GetRegions()),

I'll do the party & raid stuff a bit later tonight.

Ty for being awesome!!
Party and Raid working well.

The castbars bitching around
select(3,TargetFrameSpellBar:GetRegions()),
select(3,FocusFrameSpellBar:GetRegions()),

Just work on the shielded texture (not on the normal) and colors the focuscastbar icon. If i just take
select(3,TargetFrameSpellBar:GetRegions()),
it colors my targetcastbaricon...

I've done nothing fancy with the castbars, just setpoint/scale and added a timer.

Grey icons on the screen: (nvm added the raid border later)

Party frame textures:
PartyMemberFrame1Texture,
PartyMemberFrame2Texture,
PartyMemberFrame3Texture,
PartyMemberFrame4Texture,

Raid frame border:
CompactRaidFrameContainerBorderFrameBorderBottom,
CompactRaidFrameContainerBorderFrameBorderBottomLeft,
CompactRaidFrameContainerBorderFrameBorderBottomRight,
CompactRaidFrameContainerBorderFrameBorderLeft,
CompactRaidFrameContainerBorderFrameBorderRight,
CompactRaidFrameContainerBorderFrameBorderTop,
CompactRaidFrameContainerBorderFrameBorderTopLeft,
CompactRaidFrameContainerBorderFrameBorderTopRight,

Keep gradient=false in config as each piece of the raid border will have its own gradient making the whole look segmented.

The horizontal dividers between raid members are a ****ing riddle apparently. Seems another function will be required.

Edit:

Forgot the manager frame:
CompactRaidFrameManagerToggleButton:GetRegions(),
CompactRaidFrameManagerBg,
CompactRaidFrameManagerBorderBottom,
CompactRaidFrameManagerBorderBottomLeft,
CompactRaidFrameManagerBorderBottomRight,
CompactRaidFrameManagerBorderRight,
CompactRaidFrameManagerBorderTopLeft,
CompactRaidFrameManagerBorderTopRight,
CompactRaidFrameManagerBorderTop,
