Changing AuraWatch icons

[lerb]

Hey!

I'm using AuraWatch on my raidframes to track my Renew, Prayer of Mending and such. The thing is I don't want the actual icon of the spell to show, I just want to have a say, green square for Renew and a yellow for Prayer of Mending. I've tinkered a bit with it but can't really figure out how the heck to accomplish this. Anyone with some ideas? Don't know what part of the LUA codes I need to post so anyone that can help me will sadly have to tell me what to paste

The problem I see with what you want, and with AuraWatch, is that it is basically a buff/debuff bar (I think I'm right? trying to sound like I know what I'm talking about) that uses UnitAura to return the Icon. It isn't dynamic in that you can say: "Track this, return this icon instead of that one", it is "Track this, return this".

On the other hand, if you wanted to do it manually, you could just use something like:

if UnitBuff("player", GetSpellInfo(139)) then
    --dostuff
end

and make "--dostuff" into a frame with an all green color.

Wouldn't really call it a buff/debuffbar, it adds cornericons to your raidframes just like say, Grid does. It is specified what spells you track for each class. It's a oUF plugin and to be honest, I'm not 100% clear on how it all works, but I do believe that it should be able to use simple colored squares instead of icons - i've seen other oUF raidframes use it? Or am I wrong?

do
	ConerBuffs = {
		PALADIN = {
			{53563, "TOPLEFT", {0.7, 0.3, 0.7}}, -- Beacon of Light
			{86452, "TOPRIGHT", {0.8, 0.4, 0}} -- Holy Radiance
		},
                SHAMAN = {
			{61295, "TOPLEFT", {0.7, 0.3, 0.7}}, -- Riptide 
			{51945, "BOTTOMRIGHT", {0.2, 0.7, 0.2}}, -- Earthliving
			{16177, "BOTTOMLEFT", {0.4, 0.7, 0.2}}, -- Ancestral Fortitude
			{974, "TOPRIGHT", {0.7, 0.4, 0}}, -- Earth Shield
		},
		PRIEST = {
			{6788, "TOPLEFT", {1, 0, 0}, true}, -- Weakened Soul
			{33076, "TOPRIGHT", {0.2, 0.7, 0.2}}, -- Prayer of Mending
			{139, "BOTTOMLEFT", {0.4, 0.7, 0.2}}, -- Renew
			{17, "BOTTOMRIGHT", {0.81, 0.85, 0.1}, true}, -- Power Word: Shield
		},
		DRUID = {
			{774, "TOPLEFT", {0.8, 0.4, 0.8}}, -- Rejuvenation
			{8936, "TOPRIGHT", {0.2, 0.8, 0.2}}, -- Regrowth
			{33763, "BOTTOMLEFT", {0.4, 0.8, 0.2}}, -- Lifebloom
			{48438, "BOTTOMRIGHT", {0.8, 0.4, 0}}, -- Wild Growth
		},
	}
end

I do this in my raidframes. Code:

That should give you the right direction.

Alright, I've been messing with this for over a week now. Guess I've taken water over my head, this stuff is hard to understand!

Np Have you just tried to make a frame, that is an overlay ontop of the icon? ^^
