Verticle Styles

I am far from an expert when it comes to lua and especially oUF so I'd rather use something that's already made and then go from there. The only vertical-like style out there is the roth orbs. Is this because it's a pain to fill/empty bars from top to bottom or just preference really?

Basically my ideas came from seeing the AuR_UI and it's frame style. I wanted to see if there was something similar with oUF since it uses Pitbull and I want the least amount of resources used as possible.

It's really just a preference. Just create a statusbar as normal and run: statusbar:SetOrientation("VERTICAL") on it.

But beware this will not work if you use textures on that statusbar. Its kinda bugged. I use a transparent statusbar texture and a helper frame with the correct one above.

Hm, ok I'll have to take a look at your style and see if I can make some sense out of it.

Another thing, is it possible to turn texts vertical as well? (ie: instead of having texts horizontal make it for example turned counter-clockwise 90 degrees?)

No, the only thing you can make vertical is textures.
