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!

Guess I'm not the only one getting this issue.
I'm using the latest build, version 1.40000.1370



Any way to fix this? Or shall we wait till there's an update for 4.0.3

I'm getting 5man diagonal groups occasionally, but only after I do a reloadui in an instance. Just making a comment about it because I don't feel like filling out a bug report. And it only happens if I reloadui in a dungeon, so I can avoid it.

Can't isolate the problem so meh. I figure someone will fix it eventually.

If you read the comments directly before yours, you'll note that it's already been reported numerous times.

Here is my temporary hackish fix for the diagonal group bug:
In the file GridLayout.lua, set the yOffset in line 122 to the negative value of your frame height.

Then I use horizontal groups with bottom left anchors and everything looks fine.

Anyone have problems with not being able to heal group 2 only. Does not seems to matter if its 10 or 25 or 40 man raids. Everything works great but group 2.

Grid doesn't heal anyone. You can click on units in Grid to target them, and then cast a heal on them. You can cast a heal, and then click on a unit in Grid to target the heal on them. Or you can use a third-party addon like Clique to bind heals to specific click combinations on the frame.

So, I assume you mean you cannot click on the unit frames in Group 2, in which case you probably have some other addon creating an invisible frame that sits in the same place as Grid's second group. Type "/framestack" and move the cursor over the area you can't click. You should see a list of frames under the cursor. If you see, for example, "Bartender4Bar72" in the list, then the problem is most likely an invisible bar from the Bartender4 addon.

Hi, yes i have used Grid for several years now, i am very familiar with how it works. I did manage to figure out the problem with not being able to click heal only on group 2.

I had noticed on some of my toons it worked perfectly as always. However on my newly leveled 80 Paly, it would not work even with only grid/clique as the only addons. After many hours of WTFs, i noticed my paly was the only toon that had ASCII charaters in its name. All the normal lettered names worked perfectly.

SO, i paid the 10 bucks, did the name change, and BOOM it works perfectly now.

To test I then created a new toon with Ascii characters in the name, had a guildee vite me and make raid group. Could not heal him in group 2. But could it group 1 just fine.

Glad it works now, cause Healbot was a pain after using Grid this long.

Well, since Grid does not itself support click-casting, I'm not sure how that could be a bug in Grid. I'm also not sure how that could be a problem in Clique, unless you're using some weird custom macro that refers to the character's name. I have any number of people in my guild with non-ASCII characters in their names, and have never had a problem click-casting on them with Grid and Clique.

hi!
first of all: great addon!
i was wondering where (in GridFrame.lua) i cud change my font and frame texture. i 'cant' change it in the config ingame since grid only gives me (part of) the fonts and textures path (i.e. Interface\Addons\Sh...) for some reason. and since i have about 20 fonts in that directory and 10 frame textures and my grid frames are rather small its not that easy to figure out whats the font/frame texture i want. i know their names thou so changing it in the script wud be np if i only knew where
thx in advance!

Cud is what cows, sheep, and other ruminants chew on. It only takes you a fraction of a second to press the Shift key to capitalize a sentence, or to press the comma key to break up your giant run-on sentence into comprehensible chunks. It takes far more time for other people to sift through your bastardized mating of AOL chatrooms and retarded SMS lingo and figure out what the hell you're trying to say.

That said, if you're seeing file paths instead of fonts or textures, that means you're missing one of the libraries Grid uses to build its configuration window. Since that library is included in Grid, either you intentionally removed it, or you did not install the addon correctly, or there was some problem with your download. Completely delete the addon's folder and reinstall it from a fresh download. If you still can't see the fonts or textures, log out and edit Grid's saved variables file, or use the console options to set the font/texture using chat commands ("/grid GridFrame" and read the list of available commands).

Weird alignment/positioning problem

http://i190.photobucket.com/albums/z...azcar/grid.png


Anyone seen this before? (No, it's not photoshopped, and no, it's not by configuration.. it should be a 5 by 5 grid with another 5 by 5 grid for the pets below the players).

Sometimes, some of the players will be stacked up on each other, and I can't even click on the person behind.

This may have been resolved in the most recent Clique release:

Fix group header template click applications

There was a problem with some frames (Pitbull party frames, for example)
that was causing out of combat bindings to not properly apply. This was
due to a weird behaviour of the secure environment system.

So when is the alignment bug that makes healing impossible going to get fixed?
