!Beautycase

Version: 1.1.0

by: Neal [More]

This is a small addon for add fast and efficiently smooth borders to your frames!
You dont need to create a texture for all of your frames annymore. Just this little addon and some code below.
The benefit? The border remains the same, even if the window's size changes. It always looks like it should be.

It's a LUA bases addon. So there are no ingame configurations.

So ok, and how can you use it?

It's quite simple!
!Beautycase has some simple functions.

Create a border

Code:

CreateBorder(myFrame, borderSize, R, G, B, uL1, uL2, uR1, uR2, bL1, bL2, bR1, bR2)

myFrame
-> The name of your frame, It must be a frame not a texture
borderSize
-> The size of the simple square Border. 10-12 looks amazing with the default beautycase texture
R, G, B -> The colors of the Border. r = Red, g = Green, b = Blue
uL1, uL2 -> top left x, top left y
uR1, uR2 -> top right x, top right y
bL1, bL2 -> bottom left x, bottom left y
bR1, bR2 -> bottom right x, bottom right y

Shorter method to add a border with no spacing

Code:

CreateBorder(myFrame, borderSize, r, g, b)

Or simple just one number (x) for the same distance on all corners

Code:

CreateBorder(myFrame, borderSize, r, g, b, x)

Change the border/shadow color

"a" is the alpha, its is an alternative possibility and is not needed

Code:

ColorBorder(self, r, g, b, a)

Code:

ColorBorderShadow(self, r, g, b, a)

Change the border/shadow texture

Why? So when you want to use different textures like a "normal" texture
and a white texture for debuff highlight or as indicator for something

Code:

SetBorderTexture(myFrame, texture.tga)
SetBorderShadowTexture(myFrame, texture.tga)

Get infos about the beautycase border on a frame

Code:

local size, texture, r, g, b, alpha = GetBorderInfo(myFrame)

Try it out und you will see how easy you can add a cool border to your frames!

NEW FEATURES!

Code:

  
    myFrame:CreateBorder(borderSize)
    myFrame:SetBorderSize(borderSize)
    
    myFrame:SetBorderPadding(number or [uL1, uL2, uR1, uR2, bL1, bL2, bR1, bR2])
    
    myFrame:SetBorderTexture(texture)
    myFrame:SetBorderShadowTexture(texture)
    
    myFrame:SetBorderColor(r, g, b)
    myFrame:SetBorderShadowColor(r, g, b)
    
    myFrame:HideBorder()
    myFrame:ShowBorder()
    
    myFrame:GetBorder() - true if has a beautycase border, otherwise false
    
    local borderSize, texture, r, g, b, alpha = myFrame:GetBorderInfo()

Change the texture

You dont like the texture included in !Beautycase? Want your own?
So go into the !Beautycase/media folder and change the textureNormal.tga
file with a file of your choice.

Problems
How or where can i put these code snippets into a file or get to work?

First: DONT'T put the code snippets into the beautycase file.
Create a little addons and put the code in its .lua file.

------------------------------------------------------------

You want to skin the frames of an addon.
For example Pitbull or Omen but you get an error message?
So watch out.

WoW initalize all addon alphabetically.
So when you created a addon like "myAddon" and want
to "CreateBorder(aPitbullFrame, ...)" you can only get an error message because
you want to create a border on a frame which at that time does not exist.

Loading ... !Beautycase
Loading ... aAddon
Loading ... bAddon
Loading ... cAddon
Loading ... myAddon > CreateBorder(aPitbullFrame, ...) > Error. This frame does not exist
Loading ... Omen
Loading ... Pitbull > CreatePitbullUnitFrames

So thats one of the most mistake.
You cannot create a border on a frame that does not exist.

In the example below you must create a addon whose first character must be greater than "p"
The some for Omen and other addons. (z is a good character)

Thats the point why this addon is called !Beautycase and not Beautycase.
Its loaded as one of the first addons so that you can use the !Beautycase functions very early in a addon

------------------------------------------------------------

How can i find out the name of an frame?
Create a macro

/print GetMouseFocus():GetName()

Go over the frame you want to give a border and use this macro

Your frame has no name? Than the only solution is to insert the beautycase
code directly into the source data/function of these addon.

If you have no idea how to do this. Ask other people on the wowi/other ui forums.
There are to many wow addons, so I can't give some help with this problems.
If they have no ideas, you can even try it on the comment function of these addon.

v. 1.1.0

- huge update
- border is now names "self.beautyBorder[i]" to prevent issues with other addons
- do NOT update if you dont need the "new" features!

v. 1.0.3

- new functions
- alpha can now be change
- some non-essential changes

v. 1.0.2

- fix how variables should be handled

Im not sure where i need to be to create a new frame. What im looking to do is to use the !beautycase skin with the frames in grid so the name boxes in grid look like everything else, is this possible? I would also like to use the same skin as BobUi uses for my character frame for the party frames that appear on the right hand side when in a 5 man group with or without the 3d image. Hopfully you can point me in the right direction with this, many thanks Brb

I don't want to change just a few things at a time. But I also don't have time to go through and set it for every single part myself.

So basically what I'm asking is, can you provide a template code that will do just that for me? I have already coded everything else I need for my UI, this is the last part.

You can use !UIskinner from BobUI, still working on it but it pretty much skins everything.

Excuse the post, I was tired and didn't sleep for about... 4 days.

But anyways this is how you skin the default raid frames without manually having to call CreateBorder i haven't tested it for "CompactRaidGroupFrame" which is the name of the Raid Frames when you organize them by party but it should work otherwise.

Code:

a = CreateFrame("Frame")

--setup raid frames
a:SetScript("OnEvent", function(self, event, ...)
	if event == "PLAYER_LOGIN" then
		--unitframes only works with default
		for i = 1, 5 do -- Party Frames
			CreateBorder(_G["CompactPartyFrameMember" .. i], 12, 1, 1, 1)
		end
		for i = 1, 40 do -- Raid Frames
			CreateBorder(_G["CompactRaidFrame" .. i], 12, 1, 1, 1)
		end
		for i = 1, 5 do -- Raid Frames organized by party
			CreateBorder(_G["CompactRaidGroupFrame" .. i], 12, 1, 1, 1)
		end
	end
end
end)

a:RegisterEvent("PLAYER_LOGIN")
a:RegisterEvent("PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD")
a:RegisterEvent("ADDON_LOADED")

I downloaded Beautycase to add a border to my Pitbull unit frames a bit like Caith UI (http://img819.imageshack.us/img819/7876/77101601.png) However, I cannot figure out how to do it. I made a small addon, with a core.lua file, with the following code: Code: CreateBorderLight(Pitbull4_Frames_player, 12, 1, 1, 1) --Should skin Pitbull Player This however doesn't work. I trawled through the Pitbull4 provided with CaithUI, I can't find anything where the border are referenced. I was under the impression, that simply making a small addon which loads after the addons I want to skin would work. However, I seem to find that I will need to edit the lua in every addon I want to skin? Or is this not the case? Because if I have to edit lua in every addon, I won't be using this for two reason: 1) I don't know lua very well at all 2) I don't have the time to edit every addon when it is updated Can anyone please help me? Thanks Last edited by madindehead : 05-13-12 at 05:45 AM.

10leej A Molten Giant Forum posts: 583 File comments: 438 Uploads: 22	Seems that I can't get a border around all the buff frames for the default Buff Frame did a /framestack on it the name came up as "BuffFrame" but I put that in the code and it only puts a border around the first buff, would I have to make a border for every buff? or is there some other way to do this..... EDIT: BuffButton1 apparently doesn't exist so I can't go that route either __________________ Tweets YouTube Website Last edited by 10leej : 04-10-12 at 12:44 AM.

As result you should get "kgPanel1", "kgPanel2" ... etc.

I've tried this

Code:

/run CreateBorder(kgPanel1, 11, 1, 1, 1)

And it work fine for me

----------------------------------

Haha lol, possibility 2, to easy ^^

Have fun !

btw. screenshot of your result?

Hey Neal.

I've build, almost, a complete UI with kgPanels which looks amazing. The only thing that's always bothered me is borders. I've never managed to find one that's well... beautiful i guess lol.

I tried the method described above with the OnLoad script (I changed the kgPanels TOC so that !BeautyCase is a dependancy) but Im getting an error:

ViewpointBorderFrameBorder_OnLoad":3: attempt to call global "CreateBorder" (a nil value)

(Where "ViewpointBorderFrameBorder" is the name for that particular kgPanel).

Any ideas on how this could be fixed? Or perhaps I'm doing something wrong? I'm trying very hard to learn the basics of lua, but I don't know any way to make kgPanels recognize that global.

Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.

EDIT: I've tried using the macro and "kgPanel130" instead with exactly the same result

I ask whether it can teach me to add a Addons, convenient to modify the original the GRID As long as the GRID update, it is necessary to modify the GRID \ GridFrame.lua A little inconvenient, I hope you can teach me how to increase one Addons. Following modify GRID \ GridFrame.lua: 181 -- set texture frame:SetNormalTexture(1, 1, 1, 0) frame:EnableMouseoverHighlight(GridFrame.db.profile.enableMouseoverHighlight) if frame:CanChangeAttribute() then frame:SetAttribute("initial-width", self.db.profile.frameWidth) frame:SetAttribute("initial-height", self.db.profile.frameHeight) end -- Sexy Grid CreateBorder(frame, 12, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2) -- End Sexy Grid frame:Reset() ClickCastFrames = ClickCastFrames or {} ClickCastFrames[frame] = true return frame end 601 function GridFrame.prototype:SetIndicator(indicator, color, text, value, maxValue, texture, start, duration, stack, texCoords) if not color then color = COLOR_WHITE end if texture and not texCoords then texCoords = COORDS_FULL end if indicator == "border" then self:SetBackdropBorderColor(color.r, color.g, color.b, color.a or 1) -- Sexy Grid ColorBorder(self, color.r, color.g, color.b) -- End Sexy Grid elseif indicator == "corner1" or indicator == "corner2" or indicator == "corner3" or indicator == "corner4" then -- create indicator on demand if not available yet if not self[indicator] then self:CreateIndicator(indicator) end 697 function GridFrame.prototype:ClearIndicator(indicator) if indicator == "border" then self:SetBackdropBorderColor(0, 0, 0, 0) -- Sexy Grid ColorBorder(self, 1, 1, 1) -- End Sexy Grid elseif indicator == "corner1" or indicator == "corner2" or indicator == "corner3" or indicator == "corner4" then if self[indicator] then self[indicator]:SetBackdropColor(1, 1, 1, 1) self[indicator]:Hide() end Last edited by ghostxi : 03-02-12 at 05:25 AM.

This may be a dumb question, but which file and where am i entering my "create border" lines? do i just open !Beutycase.LUA and add it there? if so, do i throw it at the end, beginning, middle?
