Re: missing color
Posted By: Kitjan
I don't have the same bar colors I used to have for this addon. Is there some kind of library addon for extra color shades? I think the color shade was "Ferrous" or something like that to make the bars super bright. You mean a bar texture, I presume, not bar color. The textures can indeed come from other addons. I don't know whic...

Re: always show bars
Posted By: Kitjan
Hi, didn't find the option myself so I figured I might try asking here. Is it possible to set up NTK so that it would show the empty bars all the time? Glad you enjoy the addon! Try using blink, and setting the blink alpha to a comfortable level. Since a single bar can watch many things, you have to tell the bar what to display...

Posted By: Kitjan
but for some reason my Tree of Life cooldown bar does now show the icon I've noticed that NTK gives me a warning about Incarnation, saying it can't get the spell info. There's some bug in the Blizzard API with that spell. Try it by id, maybe?

Posted By: Kitjan
Setting up two bars for it is a pain, and I opened Ticket 39 for it some time ago. I even tried something similar to what you suggested, but it turned out not to work well in practice: I couldn't easily tell by looking at the bar whether it was was filling or draining. They needed to look very different. When I build it myself usin...

Re: Font outline
Posted By: Kitjan
As for the font outline, would it be possible to add more variation in the thickness of the outline? NTK is just passing a flag to the Blizzard API to add the outline, and the two options you see are all the API takes (as far as I know.) I'd suggest trying different fonts and font sizes to see if one of them has the right look. Loo...

Re: Font outline
Posted By: Kitjan
Is there an option to create outlines for the font? I really want it to blend in with Quse DBM skin, which has outlines on the font. I added an option for font outlines in 4.0.12. Enjoy!

Re: Pandemic Support?
Posted By: Kitjan
Can Pandemic support for Warlocks can be added as a feature? It may be beyond the scope of this addon, but I feel it's worth asking. Trying to think how to make this generically useful. Like, if it was a % of the duration, then it would cover the "last tick" length for many cases, but not for when haste adds an extra tick. hmm

For example: Slice and Dice 18.4s Yes: right click on the bar in question, hover over "Time Format", and choose "Fractional Seconds"

Re: UnitAura
Posted By: Kitjan
Thanks for the info, Dridzt! I'd wondered what the bonus mystery parameter was. I put up a version that ignored the extra parameter awhile ago, though... is something still broken?

I'm not likely to add this officially any time soon, but for now you can edit your local copy of NeedToKnow.lua as follows if ( fontPath ) then bar.text:SetFont(fontPath, NeedToKnow.Pr...

Depending on how easy this is to repro, maybe try doing dailies with NTK as your only addon and see if it still happens? There was once an addon that mucked with UnitAura and broke NTK.

Posted By: Kitjan
Seemed to happen especially in the raids on 17th and 18th, though maybe it just seemed like it since we were wiping a lot and wiping seemed to be the "trigger" for the timer working or not working. Awesome, thanks! I'll see if I can figure anything out.

Hmm, that should certainly be the ideal situation for it... do you happen to have logs for that raid (like worldoflogs)? I suspect it has to do with the names of your tanks

Posted By: Kitjan
Seems the "last raid target" timer option sometimes doesn't work correctly. Have not managed to figure out what causes it and it seems to happen completely randomly. One try it might be working and the next try on same boss few minutes later it is broken. You have the latest NTK, I assume? The prior version didn't work if the last r...

Posted By: Kitjan
Is there a way to make the icons persist after the CD has ended? NTK doesn't know what icon to display for blink bars in general, but it CAN do it for spell cooldown bars. I'll think about how to put that together and try to get it into the next release (along with a couple bug fixes.) Probably be a couple weeks, though.

Hoping you can help again! This time with regard to an ability called Murder of Crows Murder of Crows isn't a "debuff", though it does result in damage over time. That's why NTK isn't putting up a bar for it. Have a look at the conversation in Ticket 132 and see if those ideas will help you

Oh yea, is it a way to remove that "gap"? Not at the present time.

Re: Taint
Posted By: Kitjan
Getting some taint when trying to switch glyphs. I've gotten some other reports of that as well. I've had it happen with other addons I use, but when I set out to reproduce it with just NTK running, I couldn't get it to happen. Do you recall what you had been doing with NTK?

Re: Resetting a NTK bar
Posted By: Kitjan
Hello I seem to recall that a previous version of NTK allowed users to "Reset" a bar completely. I was wondering if there was someway to still do this? I can't see any option when I right-click on a bar. Yep! Choose the Import/Export option at the bottom, then delete the text that shows up. "importing" a blank line resets th...

Re: hey
Posted By: Kitjan
Is it possible to add the options to make the bars "stack" and make them stack up or down ? They always appear exactly where you put them. If a bar is inactive, there will be a gap there so you can easily see which is missing.

Posted By: Kitjan
NTK supports the cooldown on those spells just fine now, set them up as spell cooldown bars. If you want to display when the effect is active , I recommend using the Visual Cast Time overlay on the spell cooldown bar to break the bar up into two parts.

Hello mate, any plans to implement a way to track pet durations like dire beast and a murder of crows? Cheers! Hi :) Had someone open a ticket on that today as well. It does seem pretty important for hunters, but alas I don't have a hunter of my own to play around with. I'll either need to level one enough to get access to that...

Hello everyone, I'm having trouble setting up something specific with NTK. I'm trying to get it to show me when buff on both my MH and OH separately. I have it showing me the buff, but I'd like to make it where the MH buff is on a separate bar than the OH. Is there a way to do this? Not exactly, since the buffs don't show up ident...
