AzCastBar Question

[Plickz]

Anyone have any idea on how to add a Monochrome Outline to the fonts for it? I can't find it anywhere in the LUA files.

Hi Plickz,

Outlines are added with the SetFont API, so look for where that’s used:

fontString:SetFont("Some\\Font\\File", 16, "OUTLINE")

Change the third parameter to "MONOCHROME".

What was said above~ You made a thread about something similar before, and we told you to search for it ;D

Even someone above said look for the font string. ^^

I did this:

In
\AddOns\AzCastBarOptions\Options.lua

16. local DROPDOWN_FONT_FLAGS = { ["|cffffa0a0None"] = "", ["Outline"] = "OUTLINE", ["Thick Outline"] = "THICKOUTLINE", ["Mono"] = "OUTLINE MONOCHROME" };

adds the Monochrome Outline to the Azcb font dropdown.

Problem with this is that it leaves the 'shadow' effect, which for most people isn't that desirable. Did you happen to change that as well?

Nope, I didn't change that. Never really noticed it..
I'm using the acb that was included in ledUI, maybe it's changed there or I just don't have pixel perfect eyes.

figured it out

in AzCastbar\core.lua add
bar.name:SetShadowColor(0, 0, 0, 0);
bar.time:SetShadowColor(0, 0, 0, 0);
