I have an idea for the name area which should look nice and might actually fit the theme if I can pull off some graphics mojo. |

Like Oakayam I am missing the debuffs for the tank theme. And also having the possability to choose what to track for each class/talentspec (even if it's done by config files).
Also, the debuff icons just looks a little off, the rest of the graphics are so shiney clean while the debuff icons just looks plain. I understand that it is a first release though. Also, I am missing stacks on i.e. poisons. Another graphical element I dont really like is the combotpoints. Can you do something like the threat bar but divided in 5 parts. Should look a little tighter and not take up so much space. Haven't had the chanse to test out the icons yet, but seeing what person is target is really hard multi-tanking with overlapping plates, like close to impossible to see. Some critique, but I still love the plates! |

Heya, I have a small suggestion. Would it be possible to move Linear threat to the bottom of the nameplate?
Reason I am asking.. when I am off-tanking it always covering raid target icon and when I was tanking this morning ( checking out the new goodies , hehe ) it was on top of new shield. You could say that shield and linear threat are not meant to be used together but there is still raid target issue :P. On the new debuff icon. I haven't had a lot of time to test but it seems very selective. For example, it will show Infected Wounds but not Faerie Fire (Feral) or Mangle or Demo Roar. Also I have question. Will debuff icons feature be limited to dps theme only? Thanks for great addon. /cheers

(Sorry for my own wall-o-text ;-)
It seems like it'd be possible to display the portrait, as long as you had a mouseover/target unitid. The API function: SetPortraitTexture(texture, "unit")
It sounds like designing a theme for yourself would be a great way to go. ;-) Do you have Photoshop? Gimp? Make a mockup, and post it!
Yes, yes you do - lol
Must.. have... Shield Wall
Yep, I have gotten donations. :-) I'd had some trouble with the original Pledgie page, so I had to start up a new campaign. I didn't think the new campaign was expired. hrm... I'll have to check that out...
I'm moving ahead with the development of the debuff widget, using the upper left design (from the mockups) as the starting point. I might revisit the idea of the falling-icons, in the future. I'll keep your idears in mind :-)

I'll check it out on my end. The framelevel and frame strata on the nameplates are already pretty low.

You're very welcome! In regard to ETA on the Cast/Aura-Widgets; My guess is that each one will probably take me 2+ weeks, limited mostly by the amount of time that I can devote to the project now that spring (ie. planting season) has arrived.

So I was playing my druid alt today, just leveling her and I noticed while I was fighting this big elite mob that all my damage combat text was actually behind the nameplate. I couldn't see half my damage text. I haven't noticed this before on my other toons but since the patch, this is the first time I logged onto my non-healer alt. Is there a way in options to change this that I'm missing?

Hey there! Just found your neat Addon and I'm stunned! This is so great, even when using the "default" theme, wow. Just wanted to leave a big "THANK YOU!!" here for creating this unique Addon.
btw. I really like your ideas about the Cast- and Aura-Widget. Looks abusolutely perfect. Is there an ETA when one of those gets to be released? *happily waiting* Thanks again! DiDi |

Sounds awesome with that shield and color thingy. I actually never payed attention to the name of the ToT (I will check to see if I just didn't see it during all the commotion).
Another questions, I am really eager on doing a theme for TidyPlates with focus on tanking (one that doesn't look retarded like ThreatPlates) and was wondering if there is a limit to size and stuff (I remeber aloft couln't change size less than Blizz standard plates or else click wouldn't work)? *edit* Hmm, you will get really annoyed at all my "can't you do this, can't you do that?" bullcrap but I'll write it anyways and maybe it inspires you in some way. Is it possible to get the portrait from ToT and Threat target (they can be different) and in some way add it like the icon for the spell cast. Like having current threat targets portait (instead of shield or other icon) show up when you loose threat (or always show) does make it faster to tell who is fucking up. A name is hard to read but a bear is easy to spot. Maybe have it in the middle of Tog o' Threat and if you are the treat target show second in threat in the window (so I can tell that hunter to back the F up). Or just have the threat target to the far right and the ToT near the castbar under it liek you did in those mockups. Regarding ToT (basically spell target) is always nice to have. Preferably clickable so you can intercept/intervene fast. This would be so awesome. Also, I like the Gray theme but it feels to big sometimes. The loooooong healtbar just seems uneccassary for me since i maybe need to tell if he's at 20% or if he is at 100%. So one could probably make the plate shorter. Also, name is nice but in no way necessary. Maybe have it sharing space with healt-text and crop it. I guess I have to make this myself thoough Can you make the "bars" grow vertically, maybe there is something that can be done there to save some space. Oh yeah, for the position problem that couldn't be done. Maybe having a mirrored plate of that you can place wherever you want can be a cool idea for this? I mean, can you tell where a plate is, then you could maybe show the mirrored plate when the real one was out of sight or too far away. I made the text smaller, so it softens the effect of the wall-o-text damage (like demo shout) Also, have you seriously not gotten any donations? According to the donate button you haven't even gotten one beer and an apple martinii (for you) and that is just crazy. It also seems to have expired or something. *edit 43232* Just figured ut how you can have the "fallwing down" icons for your "debuffs to keep up" widget. Have them inside the plate! If you want to keep name where it is now just have the icons preferred state (on the mob and long cooldown left) high up, not all the way up though so you can still always tell health. Then let them fall down slowly over the name (it should have already been read and understood by then) when they are getting close to running out. I would set a fixed timer for the drop down thing. I mean, if one debuff has 60 minutes and one has 10 seconds duration the one with 60 minutes would not start dropping untill it is 59:50. No need having everything move all the time, just need to know when it's about to refresh it. Leave some room on right for total hp and % (maybe on two lines).

Re: More blargh
LOL
Actually, I had something like that feature in Tidy Plates during the pre-release 5.10 beta. It was the "Tanked" widget. I didn't have a chance to properly finish it before release. It displays a shield icon if the ToT is a raid tank, and a bloody knife knife when it's someone else. It should make it back to the release, at some point. Right now, the threat line widget already tells you who the top threatholder is, which 99% of the time indicates the current target. In addition, with the Beta version, the name will get colored bluey-green if the targeted unit is marked as a "Main Tank" in the raid roster. (The raid leader can assign this via the default UI)

More blargh
Well, I am famous (read hated) for my long ants on our guild forum.
Anyways, just thought of another very cool feature to the addon and that would be showing ToT (is it possible with just mouseover like the threat update?). We are two tanks usually and since I am a warrior I am not great on AoE tanking, but I do however want to quickly pick up loose mobs but it is way to hard for me to do that by clicking enemies to find out who the target is. Imagine just mouseovering them and seeing an icon or something (this smiley is awesome!) |
