HBar  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 2.3.9
by: hipjipp [More]

HBar
  • What does it do?
It hides everything on your actionbars exept your buttons, shortens it down to the mere width of all twelve buttons. It also moves your actionbars to different positions on the screen to take as little space as possible.
  • Why would i use this addon?
Because you got tired of the original actionbars or perhaps other bar mods just didn't cut it. You might also want to use this addon because of it's VERY low memory print (~4kb while playing, no CPU impact).
≈≈ Configured through lua ≈≈
I recommend that you use this with HBarHide


Code:
*** Description of the colors ***

White: Usable and in range
RED: Out-of-Range
Blue: Out-of-Mana
Purple: Out-of-Mana and Out-of-Range
Gray: Action not usable

And thrid: Many AB-AddOns i've been using had 1 problem.. whenever i got kicked out of a car/dragon/whatever (e.g. if it got destroyed) the AB didnt switch back from vehicle-bar to the "normal" bar or it disappeared completly.. did u fix these bugs? Or do you have no problem with this? :P
You can re-skin them. I do this from outside the game by replacing some *.blp's. Check KoskenAngo and look at the structure.

I havn't bought WotLK yet, i'm going to at a later time so i can't help with anything regarding the DK's bars or the Vehicle-bar. I'll do this as soon as possible of course, but as of now, you'll have to wait.

Please bare with me.

To this:



Also, whenever I zone or enter an instance, my right bars (I have them shifted up a bit from your original positions) reset back to the default location at the bottom of the screen.

If you could possibly fix these two issues it'd be much appreciated.
I've never noticed the transparency change myself because i never play with my bars on-screen, and i don't know how to fix it atm. =/

About the bars moving when zoning is a bug i know of. I've been trying to correct this in several ways, but never seem to catch the damned thing. I'll release a fix for it asap, but as of now, there's nothing much i can say/do but to hope that you use HBarHide for your convenient bar-toggling in that situation.

No, everything you wish to change is changed from the .lua-file. It is commented for people to understand, so there should be no problems.

The main-bar is only a 24 button + pet bar. The "Bottom Left" bar is placed at the top of your screen to be out of the way. Read precious comments for a link to wowwiki's API_Region SetPoint.

Almost every newer Unit-frame addon colors atleast one part after your class-color. Look around and try things out. I don't think you'll be dissapointed.

Please report if it got fixed or if the problem persists.
I had the same problem (I play a rogue). Problem persists even after commenting those out. I've tried rBars2 as well and get a similar (maybe the same) taint issue.

I'd really love to use a minimalistic bar mod like this but I can't seem to find one that doesn't throw errors like this.. happens when I'm in stealth and attack and the actionbar updates to my non-stealth bar.

If you can fix this you'd be my hero, otherwise its seems like a great bar mod.

This mod is just fantastic, and even if it takes a bit to setup, once you get it set how you like it, ees nice. Thank you again for creating this mod, and taking the time to figure out how to fix the problem

Can't wait til ya get it fixed, but no real rush

Sorry for explaining again, just wanna make sure we're on the same page.
Do you mean the letters that show your hotkeys and macro names? HBar hides those for a cleaner look and if you wish to re-enable them comment lines 176 and 177
Code:
getglobal(this:GetName().."Name"):Hide()        -- Removes the Hotkeys on the buttons
getglobal(this:GetName().."HotKey"):Hide()        -- Hides macro names on the buttons

to

--getglobal(this:GetName().."Name"):Hide()        -- Removes the Hotkeys on the buttons
--getglobal(this:GetName().."HotKey"):Hide()        -- Hides macro names on the buttons
Other than that, i'm dumb again... Sorry... =/

It does nothing else to the buttons since it wasn't in the original idea. I'll concider writing an optional file that takes care of such things, but i probably wont due to my lack of programming skills and time.

My tip is for you to ask around the forums... I'm sorry that i can't be of more help.
