FocusFrame

Version: 2.5.3

by: Tageshi [More]

FocusFrame -- Created by Tageshi

---------------------------------------------------------------
1. WHAT IS "FocusFrame"?
---------------------------------------------------------------

FocusFrame is very simple addon to show your focus.

The frame looks almost exactly same as Blizzard's TargetFrame;
It provide following features.
- Click to target your focus or your focus's target.
- Shows your focus's health and mana.
- Shows your focus's target.
- Shows cast bar of your focus.
- Supports Click-Casting such as Clique addon by utilizing ClickCastFrames.
- Movable by dragging the title tab.
- Supports MobHealth.

---------------------------------------------------------------
2. WHAT IS "focus"?
---------------------------------------------------------------

The "focus" is a new feature of WoW API 2.0.
Basically you can use "focus" as a second target.
It works in similar way as your real Target
and allows you to use DOUBLE targets at the same time. (essentially)

From API 2.0 Changes:
> * There is a new unit "focus" which behaves like target,
> the "PLAYER_FOCUS_CHANGED" event is fired when it is changed,
> and you receive unit events for this unit.

> * Spell casting and targetting (including focus) are only allowed
> using secure templates or special slash commands (not /script).

---------------------------------------------------------------
3. HOW TO USE "focus"?
---------------------------------------------------------------

You can set "focus" by using new standard Keybinding "Focus Target" or
by using new macro command "/focus" with target name or target id.
Another new standard keybindings "Target Focus" will change your target
to your focus. For example, you don't need to remember which mob is
your "sheep" to poly again.

Also you can use a keyword "focus" as a target id like "player",
"target", "party2", etc.

Example1: You can assist your focus by this macro.

/assist focus

You may want to focus your main tank/main assist if you will do DPS.
Or focus raid boss and 'assist' it if you are healing.

Example2: You can cast your Earth Shock on your focus by this macro.

/cast [target=focus] Earth Shock

You can watch spell casting bar on FocusFrame.

---------------------------------------------------------------
4. COMMANDS
---------------------------------------------------------------

FocusFrame has a few slash commands;

/focusframe scale <num> (Changes size of FocusFrame window.)
/focusframe reset (Reset window position.)
/focusframe lock (Prevent dragging the frame by accident.)
/focusframe unlock (Allows to move again.)

If your screen space is limited, try smaller window size:
/focusframe scale 0.7

When you accidently lost FocusFrame from your sight, reset it's
position and FocusFrame will appear again at the center of screen.

Tageshi A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 7 File comments: 249 Uploads: 4	Kouri If you are using hshh's CooldownCount of WoWAce, it is CooldownCount's bug. You can fix CooldownCount by doing this: 1. Open CooldownCount.lua using any text editor. 2. Change line 4 like below: Before change : local blacklist = { "TargetFrame", "PetAction" } After change : local blacklist = { "TargetFrame", "PetAction", "FocusFrame" } 3. Save changes. Then done.

One suggestion I have is to give an option to disable the cooldown display on buffs and debuffs, that way it won't interfere with mods such as CooldownCount which hook into the CooldownFrame_SetTimer function. Other than that, it's perfect, nice job!

Many peaple just don't know about BindPad and surprised when they first download it.

about taint

Originally posted by erica647
I had the problem with target of target not showing because of taint issues from other mods that blocked it. It was weird because the taint only seemed to happen with the default ui.

Any addons have taint from the begining, and they already have work around for taint.
But default UI depends on purity, and any tiny taint can destroy defautl UI.

FocusFrame was once a source of taint on default UI. I believe it's no longer the case.
(I do have problem, though, from some addons include Damagemater and HealBot.)

I was having the same problem, I set the scale for 50 thinking that would be 50%. I tried to get it back, then I noticed I was targering myself when I clicked on some places on the screen so I tried a scale of 1 and it was back at normal size. I then set the scale to .7 and moved it into the position I wanted. The only problem I am having now is my target of target is not displaying. I hope that heps and if anyone has any idea about the target of target not showing I would love to be able to get that to show.

Hi and thanks for the fast response! To reproduce this, just try to resize the frame and see if it works for you since it doesn't work for me. What I see is I enter the command to resize and the frame disappears. I try to reset it but I can't get it back on my screen. The only way I can get the frame back on my screen is to delete the lua file to reset it. I hope this helps and would appreciate it if you can let me know if it's just me or if something's actually wrong. Oh and if it matters, I'm running 1600x1200 resolution and 85Hz refresh rate.

Edit1: on PTR build 7441 the UnitIsCivilian() API has been removed.
So the FocusFrame_CheckDishonorableKill() call and function must also be removed.
(\FrameXML\TargetFrame.lua does not contain that check either anymore)

Thank you for the information.
FocusFrame 2.3.0 is released now.

Note that this version is UNTESTED as WoW server is not online yet.
