Main purpose of creating this UI was to create a lightweight interface that runs on my shitty PC, without losing to much utility and without looking like crap.
The name simply comes from my oUF layout. This UI is build around it.
The UI basically doesn't need a setup ingame, since version 1.9. All custom settings can be done by lua.
oUF_Asym UI is made to work for 1440x900, it works out of the box for 1680x1050 and 1920x1200, ... should work for all widescreen resolutions.
It comes with A LOT of different bartextures and fonts, see oUF_Asym fonts/texture folder and dArt folder.
There is also some nice art to play around with located in dArt/Art.
i.e.
I don't use any UI scale at all. I don't have this option checked. Or in other words this UI is basically build around an UI scale of 1.0. If you are using another resolution as 1440x900, you might have to adjust your UI scale until it fits. |

Got rid of TicTac and using TipTop right now which works fine.
1) the panels looked very nice but to be honest: that's just eye candy. If you haden't taken them out of your ui I'm sure I'd deleted kgpanels pretty soon. One chatframe bottomleft is all I need. 2) Minimazation of chatframe is very much personal taste. Right now I use it but I guess I'll deactive that feature soon 3) I love one chatframe, I have absolute no use for more than one chatpanel, especially when I can create tabs. The space that got freed up by the second chatpanel is a perfect space for my threatmeter. I'm very much for the separaton of UI pack and oUF_Asym. I often add some changes to the layout.lua, especially deleting raidframes spawnage and position of frames and it is kinda annoying to do those changes manually. I'd very much welcome a seperate site for your oUF layout only, with a detailed changelog so I can see if I have to update at all. Noobish general oUF question: On my healer I use grid and no oUF raidframes. On my tank I'd be fine with your raidframes. Is it possible to do something like that? Just make a copy of oUF_Asym and rename it to oUF_Asym2 and load one for my tank and one for my healer? The tweak I'd welcome most to your oUF layout would be partytargets as little frame or just text with raidicon. I think those add real information to your UI, especially for watching DPS and what they're doing. Buffs for party frames on the other hand I almost always edit out, because they add no information for me and just clutter up the screen.

Dawn, could you tell me where the anchor for the raid frames is? I'd like to move the frame to the top left corner. A little more out of the way for me
Thanks. |

to change raid frame position look for (for me line 1444):
Code:
raidgroup:SetPoint('TOPLEFT', UIParent, 'LEFT', 40, 55) I'm currently using lolTip which is quite small, but doesn't really feature "anchor to mouse". It does, but you can't set offsets, it's always on top of the cursor. sTooltip, TipTop and the like also don't feature this. I might have to stick with Ranttooltip, but I don't like how it looks, ..... PerfectBar might be something that can replace Dominos. I just have to play around with it some more. |

@ 1.8 and going in the direction of a .lua heavy compilation:
There are tons of great addons out there where options are available through .lua editing only. While many addons with a GUI are often clumsier and a little bit more memory hungry, they often have a feature I absolutely love: easy switching between profiles. While a perfect set up UI might be fantastic for toon number one, I personally often have very different looking UIs for other toons (especially dps vs. healer vs. tank), so that's why I sometimes still stick to addons with an options menu. |

@ashopedies
I know, I'm playing a Paladin and Druid on 80 and from time to time some of the other classes (way below 60 most of the time). What I try to come up with is something that works on every toon, mainly my main, ofc. But just as good on a fresh lvl1 as it can be. I think that's not impossible to achieve without profiles. After all I tried to set up my "profile" addons in the past just to show the same on every toon. i.e. create a new char and everything is ready to go, without loading any profile at all Besides, while making this UI, my fps got up from less than 4fps to up to 9fps in a 25man raid (and I even forgot to put all graphic details back to zero). And that's what was the most important thing for me, anyway. It's basically the same PC I had when WoW released - old'n shabby @demitri
I basically don't want to see a freakin' button anywhere, except in combat (or with a target, which I mainly use as a work around the fact that bars are hidden ooc). I also have a key binding for everything. I just use one or two bars (depending on class and how many Cooldowns are available/important), to show cooldowns on them, below the player frame. I really like to show CDs on an actionbar, because of several reasons. 1. a bar always shows the icon of the CD, even when it's off CD 2. I can just line up CDs in a way I need want to look at them, which means they will be in the same position every time. 3. I don't need another addon to display CDs. A bar addon is there anyway. OmniCC to display CDs on everything, too. I couldn't find an addon that tracks CDs in such a way. The perfect bar addon in my imagination is simple like thekbar, nMainbar or rActionBarStyler. Features some easy way to bind keys to it. Has fading options beyond just fading on "mouseover". Mainly the two conditions I meantioned above. And it let's me place up to 10 x 12 button bars where I want them (it could be a bit more flexible, though) with different conditions for each one. |
