AhmUI

AhmUI
AhmCharacterFrame
I've been building my own custom UIs for almost as long as I've been playing WoW... which is to say, for almost as long as WoW has been playable. The default UI is awesome, of course, but I've always favored function over flavor, and function is something that I feel the default UI lacks.
Originally, this was going to be just for me. Very simple, very streamlined. But as I was bragging to my friends, they got interested, so I decided to release it to the public. And with that, came the desire to add customization in the appearance, so I'm endeavoring to keep the design amicable to a wider audience then just myself.
Currently, AhmUI is little more than a fancy CharacterFrame, but I'm working on adding more modules and more functionality and more customizations and enhancements. Ultimately, I plan to touch virtually every part of the default UI. But that's a lofty goal for just one person, so no promises.
Core addon, necessary for the modules, but it seemed like a good place to list features that you can expect in every module.Features
Customizes your CharacterFrame. That is, the panel that contains your character, your pets/companions, your rep, your skills, and your currency.Features

Re: Memory Leak?
Though 2MB sounds high.. after a garbage collection, it uses under 90 KB for me. And AhmCharacterFrame uses 52 KB. |

Memory Leak?
I've now noticed that AhmUI is using more memory than any of my other addons. =(
Recount used to be my heaviest addon hitting maybe 5 or 6 MB..... sitting in Dalaran I've watched AhmUI climb from 4MB all the way up to 10MB. It appears to drop back below 2MB or so...but then starts it's climb again. Anyone else seeing this? |

Scale vs. Size
I know while using the GupCharacter addon there was not an issue with overlapping that I found. It adds a third stat panel and widens the character screen to accommodate it.
Is it possible to build in a size option rather than a scale option? I haven't looked at any of the code, but the UI may use this to position other windows properly. Then again, this is just a guess. Adjusting the size of everything in your window on the fly may not be that easy based on your code setup. |

Unknown File Format
Trying to download the 1.3.1 rev and receiving an unknown format or damaged file error.
I've tried a couple of times to rule out a botched download. Not sure if it is the file or WoWInt. |

Re: Scale...
It might be hard to see what I'm talking about because the CharacterFrame is always positioned to the far right. But when you increase the scale of it, it shifts further right then it should be, and it'll overlap any panel to the right of it. To get a better idea, open the Friends List, and increase its scale (/run FriendsFrame:SetScale(1.5)). If you have the raid browser or character frame (at default scale) or some other UI panel to the right of it, you'll see how it causes overlap. The only way to scale the UI panels properly, without causing overlap, is to scale all of them to the same size. And for that, there is the UI Scale option in the Video settings. I think perhaps it's unfortunate that Blizzard doesn't provide two separate scales, one for things that are always on the screen like the minimap and unit frames, and one for things that aren't, like the UI panels. I don't understand the reason to want to scale the character frame and not the other UI panels though. If there's interest in a UI Panel Scale setting, that's something I'd consider looking into, provided I can find a means to detect all the UI panels.

Scale...
I read where you mentioned the scale messing with things...but, since I have my game scale set to nearly as low as it can be set, this addon appears very small and almost unreadable on my 1900x1080 24" LCD. By using the SetScale command in a macro I am able to set the scale to 1.5, which is perfect for me. But, I have to run that macro every time I log in and for every toon. Which is getting annoying.
p.s. oh, one more thing...thanks for adding the X ...It sucked having to close all of my windows and bags when all I needed to do was close my character screen. This addon has replaced GUPcharacter and Fizzle. Thanks.

Just noticed this while browsing through addons, and felt I had to drop a comment on it.
I just love how this looks, and I definitely plan to utilize the character frame in my next UI. |
