HBar

Version: 2.3.9

by: hipjipp [More]

HBar

What does it do?

It hides everything on your actionbars exept your buttons, shortens it down to the mere width of all twelve buttons. It also moves your actionbars to different positions on the screen to take as little space as possible.

Why would i use this addon?

Because you got tired of the original actionbars or perhaps other bar mods just didn't cut it. You might also want to use this addon because of it's VERY low memory print (~4kb while playing, no CPU impact).

≈≈ Configured through lua ≈≈
I recommend that you use this with HBarHide
Code:
*** Description of the colors ***

White: Usable and in range
RED: Out-of-Range
Blue: Out-of-Mana
Purple: Out-of-Mana and Out-of-Range
Gray: Action not usable

Re: Missing frame in

Alright so, earlier when I tried to watch a reputation, I noticed that the reputation bar is not hidden yet, only the xp bar is. This isn't a problem at lower levels because the reputation bar is built into the xp bar ... but at max level (or when using an addon that replaces the xp and rep bar) these become seperate.

So you might want to update your addon and just add "ReputationWatchBar" to the list of hidden frames to fix this for max lvl people. (and users of other addons as well as a bonus :P)

Thanks for telling me this as i NEVER track any reputation. Added for next update.

However, I can't seem to get it to work or display anything at all. It does remove the default action bar look, but replaces it with absolutely nothing. I've re-downloaded the addon, cleared my cache/wtf files and still no luck. Any help would be much appreciated.

It seems i forgot to change it back before uploading. However, your problem is very easily solvable.

Code:

1. Open up HBar.lua in your prefered text-editor.
2. You should be at the top of the file; Look for "ypos"
3. Change -300 to 10 and your problem should be fixed
4. Save the file, and if you already had WoW running during this, reload your UI (/console reloadui)

I'd recommend you testing out HBarHide to go with HBar.

If you need anymore help or just want to ask something, go right ahead.

My thanks, for any/all help you can give~

Is the necessity for that really needed? If you can adapt one bar to another there's already a third bar at the top to not obfuscate your view too much.

But if you really want to change one of the right bars to be horisontal instead of being vertical and position it wherever you can use and modifie this code to make it do as you please:

Code:

MultiBarLeft:SetScale(scale)
for i = 1, 12, 1 do
    if (i == 1) then
        MultiBarLeftButton1:ClearAllPoints()
        MultiBarLeftButton1:SetPoint("TOPLEFT", ActionButton1, "BOTTOMLEFT", 0, -2)
    else
        _G["MultiBarLeftButton"..i]:ClearAllPoints()
        _G["MultiBarLeftButton"..i]:SetPoint("TOPLEFT", "MultiBarLeftButton"..i-1, "TOPRIGHT", 6, 0)
    end
end

You may have inspired a person to someday become an addon developer with your little addon here.

EDIT: Aha I see, that wasn't too hard to figure out ... the only thing I'm unsure of is that _G, which is a global variable if I can still read correctly. Why is this used here?

The _G is calling the global and is used because we can't combine it with the for-loop otherwise. And i'm extremely happy that i could help and inspire someone to code addons themselves. =)

EDIT: And I did it too ... I bet this is a horribly inefficient way to do it, but it works!

If you wish to split up an actionbar to something like 2x6 instead of the original 1x12 you should be able to do it like this:

Code:

ActionButton1:ClearAllPoints() ActionButton6:ClearAllPoints() ActionButton1:SetPoint("BOTTOMLEFT", UIParent, "BOTTOMLEFT", 5, 25) ActionButton6:SetPoint("TOP", ActionButton1, "BOTTOM", 0, -3)

I'm sorry, but if you would like to customize your actionbars, maybe HBar isn't for you. It's just slimming down the original ones by everything but the bars.

That should suffice. If I have a section that's 6x2, I can just leave out the top 3x2 section, essentially giving me a 3x2 one. I use 6 bars with Dominos, so it's not a bar issue.

...And does it work with ButtonFacade?

Thanks!

Sorry if you don't like changing things directly, but if i added a GUI the addon would go from 4kb to about 250kb. and i don't want that.
