wPanels

Version: 1.11

by: aapoo [More]

For advanced users, only lua configuration (aka no /wpanels or anything like that)

Just the mere basics for a panel addon, you can however use whatever luacode you desire within layout.lua

Usage example:

Code:

Createpanel("panelname", 100, 100, "Center", UIParent, "CENTER", 0, 0, 1, 0.9, "mycolors")

What is all of that? the first "100" is width, second is height, first anchor, then parent, then anchor "from" and then x. y. offset and last alpha (alpha is optional and it's default value is 1) and "mycolors" is the selected colorscheme, I plan on adding so that every colorscheme can be set to have it's own selection of textures, if there's a demand for it.
For more info on blizzards setpoint api (which is used within the createpanel) have a look here; http://www.wowwiki.com/API_Region_SetPoint

v1.11

Fixed a typo in the .toc file
Added custom texture support in colorschemes

v1.1

Remade the configuration to allow diffrent colorschemes and added checks to ensure that a color scheme is selected, there is a default colorscheme, if deleted the addon wont work.
Splitt the configuration into it's own .lua file for better structure.

I cannot for the life of me get it to work using border and background textures nor can I change the color of the borders or background, just the opacity.

Also, it does not scale with screen. Im using a 1920x1080 windowed, and if I shrink the width or change the resolution, the panels get all wacked out.

WTB fix....

Sorry my very late reply.

It should, as you point out, work. I'm back developing addons and I'll take a look at your issues as soon as I can (tommorow after work probably).

Keep an eye out and I'll update it soon as I can.

There's currently no support for this, I'll see what I can do (honestly never used that before)

bordertex = [[Interface\AddOns\wPanels\textures\blank]]
bgtex = [[Interface\AddOns\wPanels\textures\blank]]

Going to update teh way this is applied so that you can apply textures to individual panels

	-- Default layout
	local testpanel = CreateFrame("Frame", "Testpanel", UIParent)
	Createpanel(testpanel, 432, 92, "Center", UIParent, "BOTTOM", 0, 150, 0.6)
	local bpanel = CreateFrame("Frame", "bpanel", Testpanel)
	Createpanel(bpanel, 432, 82, "Top", Testpanel, "BOTTOM", 0, -10, 0.6)
	local lpanel = CreateFrame("Frame", "lpanel", Testpanel)
	Createpanel(lpanel, 150, 184, "right", Testpanel, "LEFT", -10, -46, 0.6)
	local rpanel = CreateFrame("Frame", "rpanel", Testpanel)
	Createpanel(rpanel, 150, 184, "left", Testpanel, "RIGHT", 10, -46, 0.6)
	
end

I got to messing with it a bit and thought i would share what I came up with.

*Note make sure to back up you layout.lua or when you update your changes will be lost

You could lookup the api and "rules" for it on wowwiki if you want to dig deeper. Also, .9 is the same as .90, try .80 or .85 perhaps? Last edited by aapoo : 11-11-10 at 09:09 PM.
