You can change the dimensions, but not the offset of the clickable area. As I mentioned in my reply, "It's possible to change its size (within certain limits), but the anchor cannot be altered without messing things up." I know it seems like that option was there, but it's not; I even installed Aloft just to be sure I wasn't going...

Re: Not sure if this has been mentioned.

The Tank and DPS themes are set up for running instances, obviously. In those cases, unit level isn't a big concern. You can alter the Grey/Tank theme with a quick patch, which will persist even after an update to the Tidy Plates files. Here's how: Under the "TidyPlates_Grey" folder, there's another folder called "TidyPlate...

Posted By: danltiger
One problem down; That's a start! If the threat bar doesn't show up, it could be a conflict with another addon. A simple way to test this out would be to disable all other addons, and run only Tidy Threat. However, depending on the test conditions, you might not see anything, even with Tidy Threat working perfectly. If you're...

Re: Re: Re: Cast Bar Bug
Posted By: danltiger
Yep, I thought that was fixed. Guess not :-( BUT, 5.12 will certainly fix it (in dev, now), because I'm going to be using independent frames (not the ones created by the Blizzard plates) for the casting bar (and associated elements), which will allow Tidy Plates to trigger the cast bar. This will allow me to implement cast war...

Hmm.... Try "/ttt reset", and then /reload (to reload your UI). Hope that helps! Originally posted by FlawedOne Hi I got the error pasted below today. However, even when I do the fix mentioned in other posts and get the graphic back, it refuses to show any threat even though I'm tanking and top of omen. Obviously...

Hi there Chilli, There's a template/demo theme available, which has some documentation about themes: http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/info14267-TidyPlatesGreyBasicTemplateforDesigners.html What you'll need to do is create a function in the theme's LUA file, which will look something like this: local function HealthBarC...

Re: Cast Bar Bug
Posted By: danltiger
I haven't seen any errors like that since the last update, so I figured that it was permanently fixed. Originally posted by Drokk Any update on a permanent fix for that cast bar bug using Grey theme? I am still seeing it pop about. The bar comes unstuck from it's frame and the spell icon moves.

Posted By: danltiger
Actually, the "no overlap" behavior has been the norm for nameplates since Pre-BC. It's only been recently (Patch 3.3) that Blizzard has enabled the option to allow nameplates to overlap. You can toggle the feature through both Blizzard's UI panel, or (more conveniently) through Tidy Plates' panel. Just type "/tidyplates" in game,...

Posted By: danltiger
I recall that a user had trouble with a color-changing addon, which was causing problems when Tidy Plates went to recognize the nameplate color. I briefly peeked at Class Color's LUA, and didn't see anything that would change the health bar color of a nameplate. The author also claims that it does not modify RAID_CLASS_COLORS, whic...

As an alternative, you could put the CUSTOM_CLASS_COLORS in Clean/Threat Plates by just doing something like: local classcolor local function HealthColorDelegate(unit) if unit.class ~= "UNKNOWN" then classcolor = CUSTOM_CLASS_COLORS return classcolor.r, classcolor.g, classcolor.b end return unit.red, unit.green, unit...

Re: Any reason to use the Beta?
Posted By: danltiger
None at the moment. But, I keep it updated so that people using MMOUI will get the lastest version, too. Gotta take care of my testers. Originally posted by SofaKing I see no difference in this and the non-Beta. Same release number as well as descriptions and change log. Is there actually a difference anymore? :confused:

Re: Re: Re: Hiya
Posted By: danltiger
Nameplates are a complex little creature, Xro. There's really two major components; The click-able frame (which is a 'secure frame', with all the limitations), and the graphical element (which may be a composite of many different frames/regions). I'm guessing you're interested in changing the size of the graphical/visual componen...

There are hotkeys ("V" for enemies, "Shift-V" for friendlies, "Ctrl-V" for both), which sound like they might do what you're looking for Originally posted by ParangBoi Hi dan Was wondering if you could activate TP for 1 spec (say my tank spec) and disable/hide it for my DPS spec. thanks

Hey, glad you like it. If you've got Photoshop, you could open the TGA file and edit the cast bar image, and then adjust the spell icon position in the LUA. Originally posted by Tanque I'm gravitating towards Neon as well. The only tweak I wish I could make is to move the spell icon so it doesn't obscure the cast bar.

I'll be updating the Neon theme's download page pretty soon. I'm not quite sure why I decided to post the Neon theme with some of the Betas... other than it being the theme that I use, personally. I'm thinking about including it with the main release. Originally posted by DesolatedMaggot I just want to say, keep it up! I'm re...

Oh, it's surely a bug. And I doubt it has much to do with Threat Plates. I thought I'd cured the problem, but I guess it's still lingering. Do you notice it happening with certain conditions? I'm having trouble reproducing the problem. Originally posted by wrestle593 I still notice the same problem before where the cas...
