nUI -- A full feature standalone UI replacement

Narind --

At present Bliz does not support a unique prowl bar. I'm not sure yet what changes, if any, there may be in that regard in 3.0 -- In any event, at present, nUI's main action bar is a functional copy of the Bliz action bar and therefore it is problematic to include unsupported custom action bars. That will change in the not-to-distant future however.

The other day I unchecked 'Use UI Scale' in WoW (just for the hell of it lol) and found that the top (and only) Fubar panel was shortened by about...umm... 1/5 or so.

To fix it I created a new panel, shifted the fubar addons onto it and then deleted the original panel. Maybe not an elegant solution, but it worked.

is there a quick fix for the minimap causing some of the actuon bars next to it not to be clickable. i looked in the code and tried a few things but nothing seemed to work

and thanks for the kelp on swapping the nui extra bars and the faction rep, xp bar.. the only issue now is that the map prevent the bottom 3 and the left 3 buttons unclickable. works fine with the other panels selected just not with the minimap panel.

Well, I thought I would post a screenshot of how I use nUI along with other mods for raiding (with the absence of raid frames being built in yet). This is an in combat shot of the Suprmeus fight in Black Temple from the other night. Nothing special to report really, just thought I would show people how I use nUI with BigWigs, SCT, sRaidframes, Ora2, and others as my additional raiding mods.

Been using nUI for the last 2 days and I love it. Keep up the good work. Today I was moving some of my skills and I got one that I can't move it. It won't even show the tooltip when I hover the mouse over it. It's the 3rd button in the bar that is at the lower right side. I reloaded the interface, logged off, exit the game and I can't remove it from there. Here's a screenshot, it's Aspect of the Viper at the right side of the minimap button.




Also, is there a way to lock the bars so I don't drag skills/macros off the bars when I click them?

To lock the bars, just go into the standard Blizzard menus (hit the ESC key), select Interface and then Action Bars. Check off the box that says "Lock Action Bars".

Thanks


Regarding the Aspect of the Viper icon I was trying to move, I finally moved it by clicking the minimap button. As soon as I changed it to something else, the icon got freed. If I put it back and clicked the button until minimap is selected then I couldn't move it again. I had that bar full and I could remove them all but that one.

My current UI. Using nUI, ArkInventory, TourGuide, SimpleBuffBars, QuestGuru and a few others.

[trezy]

Here's out of combat:


And here's in combat:


I'm currently using the following additional addons:
Autobar
QuestGuru
Coconuts
MiniPet
SmartBuff
Clique+Grid
TBag
Buffalo

Theres more, but those are the major ones.
Huge fan of nUI can't wait for more.

A quick hit-and-run post before I head off to work this morning... I wanted to thank everyone for their support of nUI which now appears to be the highest rated mod on Curse.com (see attached screencap)... http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/default.aspx

Thank you one and all!

nUI is awesome - truly awesome. I have unloaded a ton of AddOns and replaced it with just one. Sure there are one or two things that don't suit everybody but on balance - WOW (What Outstanding Work!)

My tuppence worth on future considerations (take ém or leave ém) would be to consider (1) Aggro gain / loss (so good for tanks) like XPerl gives you (2) right-click self cast (3) option for panel to be semi-transparent - you might find it goes a long way to appeasing all those minimalists ;-)

Awesome AddOn tho - keep developing it it's great

Hey, found Nui recently, and I've been really happy with it, but whenever I use it, my nui looks nothing like in the screenshots I see. Mine isnt displaying my party down at the bottom, nor is my map where it should be over on the right side, instead it's clumbisly placed in the center, and even covers some of my action bars. Help?

Make sure you don't have any addons active that may interfere with nUI, such as a minimap addon.

Check and make sure you have Nui beta 2 installed, Beta 1 had the minimap in the center.

Just wondering if anyone has added this yet?

If used, will it work like KLH?

I've had the same problem.. and i figured it out thanks to an occasional bug i get... As seen in the attached image, the top bar of the minimap still actaully exsists, it's just normally hiddern... bar showing in this screenshot is obviously a bug.

Note how i've actually moved the button bag bar up a little, so that i can still access it. Normally, it would be sitting right inside that bar, and be unaccessable.

Sorry to say, i've no idea how i made it re-appear this time.. but it does explain something i guess.
