Is there any way I can adjust the width of the nameplate?

I find nameplates to be little too wide for me..

is there any option that I can change the width of the nameplate?




Here is an example.

I am used to using DocNameplate style nameplates, but after using 15 mb heavy weight nameplates for 2 years, I really want to use something light weight and has essential features.

But, I really want to use something that is not as 'wide' as most nameplates. (I tired other name plates that comes with adjustable width, but they were really clunky and not as good as yours =/...and I really don't wanna go back to NPA. )

You can change the width by editing line 23 and 25 of core.lua. However the size of the click-box won't change, and it may be buggy; I haven't actually tested changing the width. So where line 23 is this by default:
width = 110,
You could change 110 to, say, 55 to halve the width. Just remember to keep the comma at the end of the line.

That's the shadow, or glow. Or something. It's supposed to be there and there's no option to disable it. I should probably add one, though.
For now you can get rid of it (when it's not being used for the threat glow) by changing line 100 of layout.lua from:
r, g, b = 0, 0, 0
to:
r,g,b,a=0,0,0,0
That -should- make it invisible.

Thanks!

Is there any way within the lua to show enemy names in combat and hide friendly unless damaged? I love this addon, but as a tank it gets rather annoying to have everyone's HP showing.

You don't need to edit the lua to do that, you can change the "friendly health format" in /knp > health display to:
=:b;<:d;
If you meant names, adding the following to line 125 of layout.lua should achieve that:
Lua Code:
  1. if frame.friendly and cur == max then
  2. frame.name:Hide()
  3. else
  4. frame.name:Hide()
  5. end
But I can't promise it won't break anything.

Line 125 should be directly under:
Code:
    frame.health:SetValue(curr)
Thanks.

Auras?

Hi there!

First of all, thanks for a very nice addon!

Secondly; I guess I must have missed something, but how in the world do you enable so that Auras? I guess it doesn't have anything to do with me playing a Warrior?

Best regards,
Oak

Re: Auras?

The auras module is provided by a seperate addon (included in this download), "Kui Nameplates Auras". Make sure that it's enabled in your addon list as well as the core addon. Then if the module itself isn't already enabled, you can enable it by going to the Kui Nameplates options frame (/knp) > Auras and checking the "Show my auras" option.

Thanks!

Hi,

Would you consider adding a "Transition" state to the Threat plates ?

When tanking with these plates, knowing that you are "losing aggro" of a mob is quite useful, and is currently the only thing i can see missing in these quite awesome nameplates (coming from Tukui/elvui)

it would be something like :

Aggro = Green
normal = red
Losing threat/gaining threat = yellow

Cheeers

Yep, shouldn't be difficult to add. At the moment I believe the threat glow changes colour to orange when you're losing threat, but I can add an option to customize that and expand it to the health bar too.

It looks like it might be trying to set the font to something which doesn't exist anymore, so if using the most recent version doesn't help you can also try using a different profile (with the default settings) or resetting your profile in /knp > expand "Kui Nameplates" in the addon list > click "Profiles".

Hey again!

Sorry to say that I still can't get Auras to work fully. I've installed Kui_Nameplates_Auras and it works fine with NPC's. But when I PvP it doesn't seem to work at all. Is this intended or is it something I've missed to enable?

Thanks again!

Best regards,
Oak

Weird. Tried it again and it seems to work on some classes in PvP. For instance hunters. :s

Probably something wrong with my setup somehow.

Small problem with your addon:
Some times it shows the auras in PvP, some times it doesn't.

A few people have also documented the same problems here: http://www.mmo-champion.com/threads/...y-players-(PvP)

Any chance of a fix? Thanks heaps for your addon, I love it except for this small problem!
