Prettier nameplates.

I have a problem/question!

Also see the FAQ in the Curse description: https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/kuinameplates

Thanks!

With the latest release the unitnames got placed inside of the bar instead of outside on the top as in the earlier version.
Is there any way to change this? I have looked in bot core, config and layout without success.

Not in terms of making a whitelist, but now that I've got the option to change height (and i'll be testing one for width), I know that works without any apparent problems. Once I've got width in I just have to make a whitelist and that can be for a bunch of things. Like don't display for, display larger for, don't show auras on, etc etc.

I uploaded 208 here and on Curse at the same time because I'm pretty sure it's stable now. It's still pending verification here, but Curse have verfied it, so you can see the differences between 201 and 208 here.

Kui_Media is for generic things that I use in other (unreleased) addons, so bar textures or fonts. The media file in Kui_Nameplates is -just- for Kui_Nameplates.

And I have one question, why are there 2 media folders? one outside the addon folder and one inside?
Edit: actually there's a bug with 208 where enemy priests with class colour enabled will use the new tapped unit colour. Won't take much to fix though.

Might be fixed in 208 which I just uploaded here and on Curse?
I'm not sure what would cause that besides another addon, and I've never seen it so it's difficult to diagnose.

Yeah, I noticed friendly players weren't there after I posted that. That's fixed in the next version-ish. The logic for tapped colours looks broken, too.

Thanks!

Those are all the colours which can be changed at the moment.
I see - Pet nameplates can be canged here by changing friendly color.
But can't figure out how to change color of fiendly players. Currently they have blue nameplate.
Also changing tapped color dosen't change anything.

EDIT: I ok for friendly player its this one:
Code:
			-- friendly player
			self.friend = true
			self.player = true
			r, g, b = 3, .3, .6

Friendly pets aren't differentiated from other friendly NPCs in any way as far as I'm aware so I can't reliably detect that. But near the top of layout.lua is this table:
Code:
kn.r = {
    { .7, .2, .1 }, -- hated
    { 1, .8, 0 },   -- neutral
    { .2, .6, .1 }, -- friendly
    { .5, .5, .5 }, -- tapped
}
Those are all the colours which can be changed at the moment.

Or unless it has a raid target icon

Now that we have castbars being displayed on all units, something might've changed behind the scenes to allow us to work it out more reliably, but I haven't looked into that yet. For example, we could match up cast events and cast bars being displayed, but that still requires units to be casting.
