Ack! Sorry for the errors, guys. Not sure how it got past my QA department. Normally he's top-notch, but I guess I'm going to have to slap him around. He was supposed to be fixing bugs, not making new ones. I'll look into these new bugs later in the eve, after the little one is in bed.

I'm guilty; I totally forgot about that issue. It happens for me, too. I'll look into it, tonight. Originally posted by Barta FYI - I am still having this issue. Whenever I log in or reload my UI, the 'border glow' option in the Grey Theme's GUI is checked. I am using the current version and this problem persists with no o...

Not quite sure what's going on, since I can't seem to duplicate the issue. I've got another hunch, but I'll probably end up relying on you guys to test it out.

I figured it out (woo!); I'll upload the fix later tonight. Originally posted by vyrt Hi, I've seen this yesterday in a raid. At the moment of death the healthbar is full filled and beyond for 1/10 second before the nameplate disappears. http://www.abload.de/img/tidy3g3h.png

Check out the latest update; Might fix the probo. :-) Originally posted by wrestle593 I've been having a problem with the cast bar with the latest update. It seems that sometimes the castbar is not even inside the nameplate at all but off. Here is a screenshot: http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h52/wrestle593/WoWScrnShot_0...

5.11.1... let me know if it fixes. Originally posted by suicidalkatt Edit: I've also noticed the nameplate theme's not properly being created with all parts and placement when initially created. To note this, I toggle my class icon display option and the theme updates, the placement is adjusted slightly for some reason and i...

Call me crazy, but the error text seems to indicate that you're running version 5.10.5. The most current release is 5.11; Give that a shot, and lemme know if you still get the error.

Re: Overlapping Name Text
Posted By: danltiger
It's ThreatPlates, technically. But, the issue occurs because of a change that I made, which results in a different order of operation. It's a quick fix; TidyPlates_ThreatPlates\extentions.lua (yes, it's an unconventional spelling) Line 172: --TidyPlatesThemeList.OnInitialize = OnInitialize Comment that line out (by...

Posted By: danltiger
Do you want the easy way or the hard way? The hard way: Write a widget that adds a statusbar+text+icon, watches the combat log for cast events, updates a table with name/guid/time, and triggers previously-mentioned frame elements to display as much data as possible. The spell-cast event wouldn't tell you WHAT spell or even the ca...

Posted By: danltiger
Hey Koopie, Thanks for the skull icons; The icon that's 'packaged' with Tidy Plates is just the default skull from Blizz. I admit, it does look out-of-place with these non-default skins. I'll put it on the list. :-) Originally posted by Koopie This is such a great addon, good work dan! I do have a minor suggestion tho...

Posted By: danltiger
That's actually the health text, leftover from the Grey theme. I just noticed that bug; When you change themes, and that text box is supposed to be hidden, the text box sometimes doesn't hide itself. And, since it's not updating, it always displays the last value that it was set to. A quick fix is to hide then show the nameplates...

Posted By: danltiger
Ah, yeah, it IS a little off! I originally anchored the aura widget to slightly favor the left side, to make room for the combo points widget (if used). It looks like I got a liiiittle carried away - lol. I should probably do something that moves the anchors automagically depending on the widget. There's always 5.12, eh? Edi...

Regarding 3x2; I'm willing to give it a shot. About the original mockup; I did try that design, but decided on some revisions after seeing it in motion. The text on the left side of the icon felt too cluttered, and I felt that it was harder to quickly identify the debuffs. AND, I'd left out a place to display stacks, which I...

Hitbox shift; Changing anchors of a nameplate = bad bad bad bad bad Vertical Bars; If you want to make a theme with vertical bars, go for it. I prefer the horizontal arrangement, myself. Text runs much better in that direction. A non-text theme (like Lucky Charms) would probably be a better fit with vertical bars. Originall...

Posted By: danltiger
It's quite possible to do it for the current target. You'd have to write your own widget. I suggest taking a look at the Selection Box Widget in the TidyPlates_Grey\Tank\FunctionsTank.lua file. You'd have to make some graphics, add a statusbar, etc. Not especially complicated, but it takes time. (which is why it's not already in...

According to the "Chicago Manual of Style", you're right. ;-) Originally posted by Drokk Percent logo is on wrong side when displaying Health as a percentage. Displays %75, when it should read 75%.

Posted By: danltiger
Setting the bar to "VERTICAL" just changes the statusbar, not the hitbox. However, the hitbox CAN be altered, with some Blizz limitations; We can only change the size/shape of the hitbox out-of-combat. This isn't as dire as it appears. The nameplate objects are re-cycled, meaning; They are created once, and shown/hidden as n...
