CooldownWatch Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 3.2

by: SDPhantom [More]

This is a very simple, very small AddOn, that displays a numerical value on cooldowns and the Buff/DeBuff display on the target frame.

Durations are color-coded by units of time.
White for Seconds
Yellow for Minutes
Orange for Hours

Version 3.0 has been rewritten with a much smaller codebase that hooks into the global metatable all Cooldown frames use.
This makes the AddOn more robust and able to run with virtually all UI configurations.

v3.2 (2011-12-01)
WoW 4.3.0 Support
-Updated to work with WoW 4.3.0

v3.1 (2010-10-13)
Optimization
-Optimized lookup table and memory usage.

v3.0 (2009-02-15)
Rewrite
-Rewritten with much smaller and more efficient code.

v2.1 (2008-08-16)
Minor Fix
-Added back in code for Blizzard's default UI. (No clue why it bypasses my rewritten detection code.)

v2.0 (2008-08-16)
Complete Rewrite
-Recoded the entire hooking system. (Should work on all UI AddOns now.)

v1.0 (2008-04-18)
Initial Version
-Hooks into the UI function that sets values on "Cooldown" frames.

I still use it and it seems to work fine.
The game doesn't start the cooldown on potions until you're out of combat.
Blizzard's change didn't seem to affect this addon at all.
The timer will appear and count down as normal when the cooldown starts.

This addon will show the text for any cooldown timer when the timer starts, even on potions.

I suppose you can add ptr:SetTextHeight(24); after ptr:SetPoint("TOP");
As a reference to the number used for the font height, NumberFontNormalSmall is 12, NumberFontNormal is 14, NumberFontNormalLarge is 16, and NumberFontNormalHuge is 30.

I have one more question to ask The global cooltime and specific skill cool time are displayed at once. Is there any way to change this so that I see only the skill cooltime?

The only way I can think of is to check the duration of a cooldown and only act if it's greater than the length of the GCD. If I remember right, the GCD is 1.5 seconds, so if you find the following line and add the condition as noted, this should apply the desired effect.

Target line: (around line 52)

Code:

if start~=nil and duration~=nil then
	ptr[1]=start;
	ptr[2]=duration;
end

Change to the following:

Code:

if start~=nil and duration~=nil and duration>1.5 then
	ptr[1]=start;
	ptr[2]=duration;
end
