SnailUI
SnailUI
SnailUI is a pixel perfect UI, meaning everything is aligned perfectly. SnailUI skins almost everything, including the minimap, action bar, casting bars, etc. SnailUI is currently in a beta state, so there are probably plenty of bugs to be found. I would appreciate it if you reported them in the comments or through Twitter.
A lot of aspects of SnailUI can be changed via the in game interface options (or by typing /SUI or /SnailUI) or via the lua files themselves. This UI is also using Tuk's warlock bars addon as a temporary fix until oUF is updated. Should you need to contact me, I can be found via Twitter. (@1Snail)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Features
Download
You can download SnailUI at either of these sites:
WoW Interface: http://wowinterface.com/downloads/info20900-SnailUI
Curse: http://curse.com/addons/wow/snailui
You can also stay up to date with the cutting edge versions of SnailUI by visiting its GitHub repository here: https://github.com/1Snail/SnailUI (The files here can change many times a day so it's not recommended to use this version of SnailUI unless you know what you are doing)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Installation
Read: SnailUI relies on both oUF and oUF_SpellRange, so make sure that these 2 addons are installed before continuing. To install SnailUI, just unzip the SnailUI folder into your World of Warcraft / Interface / Addons folder and you are good to go.

Re: Can't seem to configure :c
 --------------------------------------- @Junjie So I just got done doing the action button out of range stuff that we were talking about earlier, it was actually a lot harder than I thought it would be. (The code is quite short but the logic behind it took a lot of thinking through different situations) One of the functions used in it is currently bugged by Blizzard though so random spells aren't being affected by my UI. I made a thread about it on the official forums here: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/6863276815#1 But anyway, here's an example of what it looks like:

For the threat colors, yes this is already implemented but it is only active for raid frames to let healers know when a dps is getting aggro or who the tanks are. (The frame border changes to red/orange/yellow if the user has high threat or it normally uses its class color otherwise)

Thanks for the quick replies
My only concern with using the NeedToKnow stacking bar style for debuffs is that with 3+ debuffs on target (especially more for warlocks) you could wind up blocking out a lot of your screen. Whereas, if you made them button style like your buttons, and sorted/stacked them side by each, it would take up much less room. I have to say too, it's great that you respond so fast and are receptive to new ideas and thoughts on your UI. That in my opinion, having such an open minded designer, attracts more people to the addon as well as its designer (you). Any thought as to the layout of your cooldown timers? ps. Just noticed too. Perhaps some sort of threat display/coloring? Like how when you have aggro, color or you player frame turns red, orange etc.

Also, thanks for posting that picture. I wasn't aware that unicode names were messing up like that, should be fixed in the next update.
The buttons should change to red if they can't be cast on a unit or if the unit is out of range but I am not too sure about using blue for the resource indicator. Tested it out in game and it looks really weird, I might just use the default "gray" look for that as well as when you aren't targeting anything. Anyway, this will appear in the changelog for the next update: Code:
- Action buttons will now change based on if the unit is in range of the spell - Action buttons will now change based on if the spell can be cast on the unit

Looking forward to the buff/debuffs, are you going to have it so players can add spells of their own? |

Thanks for the reply, yeah i worked it out i had just set the 3rd bar a little to high. I play a rogue so it shouldnt interfere with the raid frames but i have to say i am loving this UI i have added the use of ifilger with it also and it just finishes the look off greatly i will try to get some screenshots up to let people see.
Again great UI and keep it coming as this UI is definitely a keeper and I made a login just to comment on it  |

 1. If you notice 2nd button, 2nd row, it is crusader strike. I am currently using GreenRange addon. Out of range abilities become red, while out of mana abilities become blue. In my opinion, it is easier to notice color change for these circumstances vs. fading. 2. I crappily photoshopped in my idea of the player debuffs on target display. I use this same type of display using raven, just to keep track of my own debuffs I put on the target. ie: censure stacks, deep wounds etc. I have no input on where you would show enemy buffs, but, this is my suggestion for the aforementioned player debuffs on target. Thanks for taking this as constructive input and not any sort of criticism! Again, i LOVE this layout and design. The pixel perfect look, clean, sharp. I have mild OCD and this is SOOO awesome to just sit and look at. lol. Take care, and again, thank you! ps. the sorting order of the debuffs I assume would be centered and then spawn left/right etc, so don't mind the ordering of them in the photo. That's just the way I happened to have typed in. lol. I would assume it would sort something like [4][2][1][3][5] (centered then alternating left to right type sorting) pss. I edited the photo again and added what could be a cool idea/placement for "programmable" cooldown watch? Again, I'm not trying to change your UI or enforce things. Just trying to offer some possible optional elements etc that maybe you hadn't thought of.

1. Currently when out of range, the opacity of the button goes to 40%, though I could change the color pretty easily. What did you have in mind? (OOM goes to 50% opacity I believe) 2. This is on my todo list and should be completed in the next 1-2 updates, currently working on a dps/healing meter replacement that's extremely light weight. (Like 2kb compared to Recount's 1.45mb) 3. This is also on my todo list, though they are going to come out like buff/debuff/cooldown timers, somewhat similar to the addon NeedToKnow or NugRunning. As for the action bars, I really really didn't want to add the second one as I am the type that mostly keybinds everything but it was highly requested so I did it anyway. I don't really want to do more than 2 though because it ends up overlapping your character on smaller resolutions. (And I generally think it looks bad )
