oUF - Layout discussion

[jadakren]

Been a while since i had castbars on anything but focus and target, but I had this impression that I could have them on any frame...am I wrong?

layout is like :

[focustarget]                       [targettarget]

[focus-----------]             [-----------target]
              [       player      ]

I tried enabling them : http://pastey.net/106981/471

I end up with castbars on the focustarget & targettarget frames that dont do anything and remain visible all the time regardless of casting state.

not-casting:

casting:

oUF doesn't do castbars on eventless units.

how would i enable power value display when the pet frame has energy (e.g Malygos drakes), but hide the value, and perhaps the power bar completely when the pet frame has mana (warlock pets)?

you can try to do a check with this function

Hi guys!

I am totally new to LUA and pretty much have no knowledge in it but i've been trying to find a way to replace the numeric values for percentage values instead for health and Mana display.

Am using oUF Obble square plugging and so far here's what i think needs to be changed:

local function numberize(value) if(value >= 1e6) then return string.format('%.1fm', value / 1e6) elseif(value >= 1e4) then return string.format('%.1fk', value / 1e3) else return value end end

local updateHealth = function(self, event, unit, bar, min, max) if(not UnitIsConnected(unit)) then bar.value:SetText('C') elseif(UnitIsDead(unit)) then bar.value:SetText('') elseif(UnitIsGhost(unit)) then bar.value:SetText(':G') else local r,g,b = oUF.ColorGradient(min/max, 181, 79, 79, 181, 110, 68, 0, 255, 0) if(unit=='player' or unit=='target') then bar.value:SetFormattedText('|cff%02x%02x%02x%s|r', r, g, b, numberize(min)) else bar.value:SetFormattedText('|cff%02x%02x%02x%s|r', r, g, b, numberize(min)) end end

local updatePower = function(self, event, unit, bar, min, max) local color = self.colors.power[powertype] if(min == 0) then bar.value:SetText() elseif(UnitIsDead(unit) or UnitIsGhost(unit)) then bar:SetValue(0) elseif(not UnitIsConnected(unit)) then bar.value:SetText() elseif unit=="player" then bar.value:SetText(numberize(min)) if color then bar.value:SetTextColor(color[1], color[2], color[3]) else bar.value:SetText(numberize(min)) bar.value:SetTextColor(0.2, 0.66, 0.93) end else bar.value:SetFormattedText(numberize(min)) if color then bar.value:SetTextColor(color[1], color[2], color[3]) else bar.value:SetTextColor(0.2, 0.66, 0.93) end end end

I'd prefer seeing % value as far as health and mana goes instead of the absolute values as it is right now. Hope its not too hard to change.

Is what you need to change. Can't remember the % formatted text atm off the top my head atm though :<

I was able to get something with (min/max)*100 but when am loosing health, instead of showing the % value...it still displays the abs values

Ex: 76% is instead shown as 76.5726579293786 when adding min/max*100


Getting somewhere i guess

instead of %s or %d use %.0f

Instead of what he said, use %d.

If so the deficits will still show, unless you use math.floor ofcourse.

Now I know that

[deadwizard]

I don't seem to get it..


This is the return string part

local function numberize(value) if(value >= 1e6) then return string.format('%.1fm', value / 1e6) elseif(value >= 1e4) then return string.format('%.1fk', value / 1e3) else return value end

and the setformatted value

bar.value:SetFormattedText('|cff%02x%02x%02x%s|r', r, g, b, numberize(min))

Thanks for all the help guys

[deadwizard]

So maybe Obble can help me out here...


What would be the new string formatted text? I've search and tried to understand what to change but to no available

There was a problem on Malygos, are not shown combo points, here my code:

if ((PlayerClass == 'ROGUE') or (PlayerClass == 'DRUID') or (unit == 'pet')) and (unit == 'target') then
	self.CPoints = self:CreateFontString(nil, 'BACKGROUND', 'GameFontNormalHuge')
	self.CPoints:SetPoint('TOPRIGHT', self.Health, 'TOPLEFT', -4, 0)
	self.CPoints:SetTextColor(1,1,1)
	self.CPoints:SetJustifyH('RIGHT')
	if(unit == 'pet') then
		self.CPoints.unit = 'pet'
	else
		self.CPoints.unit = 'player'
	end
end

What do I do not so?

You could try this

if (unit == 'target') then
	self.CPoints = self:CreateFontString(nil, 'BACKGROUND', 'GameFontNormalHuge')
	self.CPoints:SetPoint('TOPRIGHT', self.Health, 'TOPLEFT', -4, 0)
	self.CPoints:SetTextColor(1,1,1)
	self.CPoints:SetJustifyH('RIGHT')
	if(unit == 'pet') then
		self.CPoints.unit = 'pet'
	else
		self.CPoints.unit = 'player'
	end
end

To test this you can do this quest http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=13414
you can still mount the dragon after you have completed the quest

if that's not working you can try to remove

	if(unit == 'pet') then
		self.CPoints.unit = 'pet'
	else
		self.CPoints.unit = 'player'
	end

For starters, don't use the

..

functions when you are pasting code, but use the

 ...

I'm not completely sure about what you are trying to achieve, but i'm guessing that you want to display only the % value of your health and not what you actually have.

bar.value:SetFormattedText('|cff%02x%02x%02x%d%%|r', r, g, b, (min/max*100))

If you want health and % health you can do

bar.value:SetFormattedText('|cff%02x%02x%02x%s %d%%|r', r, g, b, numberise(min), (min/max*100))

Principal cause was self.CPoints.unit = 'player'
removal has helped, as has removed class limitations.

And still a question:
I have forgotten, for what was set self.CPoints.unit = 'player' ?

cpoints.unit is always the same as the frame unit unless overrid.
myself i use cpoints.unit = 'target' on player frame.
