Grid  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 8.0.1.1
by: Phanx [More]

Grid has been continued as Plexus by Doadin. Use that instead; Grid has not been updated since 2018 and will not be updated in the future.

Grid is a compact and highly configurable party/raid unit frame addon.
The compact grid of unit frames lets you select a group member quickly, while keeping a good overview of the whole group. It shows as much information as possible without overloading you. It allows you to customize what information you see, and how you see it. It works in both party and raid groups, and supports pets and vehicles.

Want more features? The Grid core tries to include only features which are generally useful for all classes and roles, but makes it easy to add new features with a simple plugin API for developers. Over 75 third-party plugins are already available!

Type “/grid” for options, or right-click the minimap button, DataBroker launcher, or Grid frame tab.

Language Support
Grid is compatible with all World of Warcraft localizations. It is currently translated into English, Deutsch, Español, Français, Italiano, Português, Русский, 한국어, 简体中文, and 繁體中文.

To add or update translations for any language, enter them on the WowAce project page. New and updated translations will be automatically included in the next version of Grid!

HINT: The WowAce interface for adding translations is quite cumbersome. To make the process easier, you can use the Export function on WowAce, copy the exported data into your text editor, fill in your translations, and then paste them back into WowAce using the Import function.
Credits
Grid was originally conceived and written by Maia and Pastamancer in late 2006. Phanx has been the primary developer since late 2009. Jerry wrote the original pet support code. Mikk designed the icon. jlam added some advanced options for auras. Greltok has helped a lot with bugfixing. Finally, lots of people have contributed translations!

Klik

Hi, Just to let you guys know i found a click cast mod that works with GRID
its called Kilk, its got a lot of addons packacted with it but all you need
is klik, klikcast, klikconfig and kliktooltip the rest can be trashed.

Now im just missing a mana bar and maybe a cast bar that i can put close to the GRID and im gonna be set...

Oh right... one last thing, I have a problem with the ICONS appearing in the middle of the squares they are too big and im left with just a milimeter of the background thats still showing... not very great to see the healt of a unit... I often dont heal some players because i just dont realize they were down in healt.

I have low mana set for the border alert - casters with low mana get a pale blue border. Really pretty effective. But I do understand you request. I also use Litmus, available here.

2 suggestions

When raiding, this little "grid" becomes my whole world and i lose track of everything else going on on my screen... for this reason i would really appreciate it IF you could put our mana bar to the left of the grid, now not show our mana in our square int he grid really a dedicated meeter for our own mana, a simple vertical blue bar type of thing.

This way i can monitor my mana pool without loosing focus of the raid's healt satus.

When i think of it though... an OOM warning in the grid for party members could be usefull... maybe its already there, ill have to look it up.

Thx.

One other thing, id apreciate if we coud "click heal" with your addon
As in left click casts one spell middle click another spell and right click another one

Maybe theres another addon that can allready be used for that but im not aware of it if someone has a suggestion id be glad to hear it.

Thx!

Just picked this up tonight (finally) after putting it off for a while. My one question is this: Is it possible to show Mana deficit, just like Health deficit? I turned on the Center Text 2 option and it'd be nice to have the top line show health deficit and the bottom line show mana deficit.

Just wondering if there was an option I missed somewhere or a plugin I didn't see. As a hunter (and therefor a puller) it would be helpful to see if anyone needs to drink before I pull.

Pet Support

I too, would love you forever if you would add pet support!

Also, maybe a status like Feign Death for Spirit of Redemption? Otherwise it just looks like the priest healed to full.

Grid uses unit names to keep track of statuses internally. It works fine for players because player names are guaranteed to be unique. Pet names unfortunately are not guaranteed to be unique, and a pet can even have the same name as another player. I have some ideas on how to do it, but I haven't gotten around to rewriting RosterLib.
Substitute unit ID's for names? Except when displaying a name of course. They are guaranteed to be unique.

Or maybe as a "quick" hack, append unit ID to player names and separate that before using the unit ID for everything. Makes all names unique too.

Example: Joseph#party1 Haroon#partypet1

I used # in the examples because it is visibly obvious, and not usable in names so easy to parse out with say:

s = "Haroon#partypet1";
name = string.match(s, "^[^#]+");
unitid = string.match(s, "[^#]+$");

I know you get all kind of strange requests but i think you should ad preyer of minding - the jumping heal. Would be cool to mark it in one corner so you can se it and know who gets the jump heal.

Cheers m8

(oh! about pet´s - dont bother about it - I tell hunters to keep an eye on them, they wont recive any heals and you know what? It works great!)
Hi. The answer to your request lies somewhere in the image below.

Grid Questions

Hello,

I am slowly using Grid more and more. There are a couple of features I would like to see:

1. Pets. It would be nice to be able to turn on and off pets. Maybe even just have them in a seperate grid layout?

2. Target! Most of all, I want a floating box that is my current target. And if I have a raid/party member targeted, I want that box to be THEIR target.

Thanks for the great addon!

Re: Hide Party Frames?

Originally posted by Glorah
I am a new convert to GRID, but I have a question: How do you hide the Party Frames when using GRID?

The Party Frames are the portraits of the four other party members that appear under your portrait when you are in a party. The Blizzard UI has an option to hide the party frames when you are in a raid, but, obviously, not when you are in a party. When you are using GRID you don't need the party frames and they clutter up the screen.

Is there a way to hide them?
Since Grid doesn't show pets, I don't recommend hiding the party frames, but if you really want to:

Copy and paste this into a macro and then click the macro.

Code:
/run for i=1,4 do local f=getglobal("PartyMemberFrame"..i);f:UnregisterAllEvents();f:Hide() end
Reload your ui to get the party frames back.

Great addon

Even just for removing curses as a mage this is great. The one thing I'd like to see is an AFK status warning - I know CTRA had this as an option and it'd be handy if you could do it.
