Version 1.00 Final by Dr. Doom * Fixed a spanish localization error. * Fully localized for French (thanks to Jokhond). * Fixed the TrackBar texture update (really this time). Thanks to all who helped with localizations and testing, I'm calling this mod "complete" at this time. Feel free to write custom bar interfaces using this framework. Even if you are an experienced developer, you will find this mod a powerful backbone to your bar mod.

If you don't use an addon, you can simply delete it from your addons folder. XBar only manages bars that are created specifically to work with it. If you are attempting to make these bars yourself, try using one of the existing mods as a template. Read scriptnotes.txt for some insight on the inner workings of the mod.

emma.hair A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 1 Uploads: 0	Extraneous Bars not in Config Menu Hey, I'm loving this mod, finally managed to create my self a melee bar etc, the only problem I'm having is that there are 6 bars in a different style to the rest, they aren't in the config options and all I seem to be able to do is move them around. 3 of them are fine and useful but I really don't want BonusBar, BagStatus or Cast Bar. They're really big and useless. I figure there must be some way to get rid of them, but how!? Thanks for your help. Em

To show or hide them, type "/xbar toggle" * Found some neat functions to dynamically create bindings without macros, made a link in the readme file. * I think it's finally stable enough for release, as far as the data format and features, so I'm taking the individual bars out of beta, and changing the XBar core to a release candidate.

Yes, create a separate option set to use on each one. Lets say you have your main (a rogue) and an alt (a hunter), and you want to make a separate layout for each of them, but use a standard layout for all your other toons.

A. Log into the rogue and type /xbar options new Rogue
(This will create a new option set named 'Rogue')

B. Type /xbar options view
You'll see a list like this:
1) *default
2) Rogue

You are currently using default. Type /xbar options set 2
Your screen will reload, and you'll get to position them how you want.
Note that if you type /xbar options view, you'll see this:
1) default
2) *Rogue

C. Log out and back into your hunter. Type /xbar options new Hunter
Type /xbar options view and you'll get:
1) *default
2) Rogue
3) Hunter

D) now type /xbar options set 3 (screen reloads)
/xbar options view shows:
1) default
2) Rogue
3) *Hunter

Position away!

E) If you have other classes, you can make other profiles for them. If you have bank alts or whatever that you don't care about the bars, leave them on default and hide the bars.

NOTE: More than one class can share an optionset, and changes to one will affect the other characters as well.

You can reorder the spells by changing the order they appear in the localization files.

If you feel like digging, change line 578 in XBar.lua (Function XBar_UpdateCooldowns) to:
CooldownFrame_SetTimer(cooldown,start, duration, enable);
(This is towards the end of the function after the 'if (start>0 and duration>0) then' statement)

Did that and it works great. Thank you for the quick response and great addon.

drdoom A Defias Bandit Forum posts: 2 File comments: 126 Uploads: 1	Timers For those two timer mods: OmniCC hooks into a blizzard function call to intercept cooldown update calls. CooldownCount looks for a predefined set of buttons to watch for cooldown updates. Since my mod uses its own frames, you'd have to manually add which bars you want to monitor into CooldownCount. You could try something like NaturEnemyCastBar, which (I believe) monitors the combat text for abilities. It may not be as accurate for your own spells, but also shows timers for other stuff as well. If you feel like digging, change line 578 in XBar.lua (Function XBar_UpdateCooldowns) to: CooldownFrame_SetTimer(cooldown,start, duration, enable); (This is towards the end of the function after the 'if (start>0 and duration>0) then' statement) This should make it work with OmniCC. Some timer is better than no timer. And if the only cooldown reducing ability you have is Beast Lord, you're going to take at least one hit while retrapping basing entirely off of watching the cooldown frame to recast. If you have the talent, you should be able to just retrap as soon as you get the cooldown up and have no problem. That's what I do. Last edited by drdoom : 06-06-07 at 08:23 AM.

rpar01 A Fallenroot Satyr Forum posts: 28 File comments: 5 Uploads: 1	I love this addon, it is way overdue and I appreciate you taking the time to make it. I noticed today however that my timers don't work on my trapsbar. As a hunter this is a feature that i have realy come to rely on. I tried two different cooldown mods. Omnicc and cooldown count and neither worked on my trapsbar. Is support for those something that can be added? __________________ Cry Freedom

drdoom A Defias Bandit Forum posts: 2 File comments: 126 Uploads: 1	beta4 Quick update to beta4. Had some typos, missing spells, etc... While I was localizing for Spanish, I found several spells I missed or misspelled, so I feel the spell database is a bit more complete now. Keep in mind that XBuffBar is meant to hold party/self buffs. Several things that I won't be including in it are teleports, mages' mana stones, conjuring food/water, etc... (Notice that the warlock stones are in XWarlockBar)

Duh <me>

I made a racebar and it works fine.
