Chat Timestamps

Version: 1.6

by: Skizo [More]

Description

This very tiny mod adds a customizable timestamp (defaulted to [HH:MM:SS] format) to every chat window there is.

Unlike some other addons for timestamps (just like Prat plugin for instance), this works perfectly with every Combat Log window aswell.

Commands

/cts format <timeformat> - sets timestamp format
/cts status - displays settings

Format Examples

Assuming time is 14:50:21
%H:%M:%S - Prints out "14:50:21"
%I:%M:%S %p - Prints out "02:50:21 pm"

More infos about time formats can be found here.

Note: Since version 1.5, two custom types have been added, #H and #I which replace %H and %I. Both of them are case sensitive and provide an easy way to have non padded hours (07 will become 7 and so on).

Color Codes

As of patch 1.4 you can now use color codes too. The format is the following:

|cAARRGGBB-text here-|r
AA = Alpha, RR = Red, GG = Green, BB = Blue

So, for example, if you want a standard 24h red timestamp, you would use |cFFFF0000[%H:%M:%s]|r as your format.

v1.06
- Fixed/Updated TOC

v1.05
- Fixed a typo which prevented custom format to reload properly upon login
- Added two custom formats #H and #I to remove the trailing zeroes from hours

v1.04
- Added escape codes after Silenia's request

About the previous comment, I just made a hack that will let you use the escape codes to alter colors and whatever you want. So yes, there's a way to change color, will update asap.

You might want to disable Prat's timestamp though, or you will have 2 instead of one. About the "unused space", as far as I know that's standard. Little line indentation to avoid confusion. I must admit though that I'm not sure. If the indentation is caused by Prat, then it's quite sure that my addon shouldn't do that. If it's standard, I'm afraid that nothing can fix that (unless proven wrong, ofc And about HitsMode, I have no idea, but I'm quite positive about it. For the same reason why it works with Prat aswell. It just intercepts the messages and adds a timestamp on top, and then sends back to the system, nothing more nothing less. And about the colors... I must admit I forgot to try, but I think so... You should try with a string like "\|cFFFF0000%H:%M:%S\|r" and see what happens. I'm gonna try that right away and check if it works fine, but it should.

The problem I have with the time in Prat is there is a bit of unused space if a sentence runs into a second line. If yours will work with Prat and I don't have that unused space, i would much rather use your addon for the time. Will your addon work with HitsMode? Is there an option to change the color for the time? Many thanks! __________________ ♪～ (￣。￣ ) I ♥ My Sonos!
