Re: Hand-Mounted Pyro Rocket
Posted By: Kitjan
I went ahead and tested this today, enchanting some crappy offspec gloves in my bank (Handgrips of the Savage Emissary in this case.) It works just like I expected: Use a Spell Cooldown bar, and for the name of the buff/debuff to time, type in the name of the enchanted item (so Handgrips of the Savage Emissary for me.) You would do...

Re: Disabled groups/bars
Posted By: Kitjan
Sweet, glad that will work for you! Originally posted by Pseudopod Was just wondering will the disabled/hidden groups still try to track the spells on the background or are they completely disabled when they're disabled? :P Disabled bars (either individually or by group) do not register for events or update. Aside from a littl...

Ticket 31 is open about ex...

Re: Overriding the bar name

Originally posted by wacko1 is there anyway to make the bar show what a proc does instead of the proc name. Not crazy at all, in fact it's Ticket 43, and something I expect to work on next.

Originally posted by Aisenfaire Would there be any way I can make it show more than 4 sets of bars, and more than 6 bars per set? That limit is pretty rigid right now, and we're not keen to increase that. But maybe you can do more with each bar... do you really need a separate bar for all of the procs/buffs/debuffs you're current...

Originally posted by matronite Is there a way to show the background, name, icon of a tracked buff or debuff even when that buff or debuff is not active ? You can nearly achieve that by enabling blink and setting the blink alpha to be very small. Then set the blink label, and you've got all but the icon.

Originally posted by Crytz Is there any way to show the hand-mounted pyro rocket cd? I think I've tried everything and I just can't get it to show. I don't have gloves enchanted with that to test it out, but my guess would be to set up a bar as a spell cooldown and use the name of your gloves as the spell name. I do have an engi...

Originally posted by Ross If so is it fine if I do that and toss it up on here for others hunters to get? I certainly don't mind people sharing their NTK configs! But it's not really a patch or optional addon... I'm not sure how wowinterface handles settings packs. I'm not even sure how to find out, short of firing Cairenn a PM

Originally posted by Feralfire Hmm, l thought l'd tried that, but l'm gonna do it again since it actually does make sense. It's a rather odd situation though really - just makes it simpler for me if l'm not constantly looking all over my screen (Hence loving ntn as an addon.) Thanks! :) Let me know how it goes.

Originally posted by bigwatch As of right now, the buffs and ICD's are stacked on top of each other in one column distinguished by color. I'd really like know how to configure it to separate the columns, if possible. Currently you get 4 bar groups to play with. The groups can be placed anywhere, so you could have one group with...

Re: Arcane Blast (The buff)
Posted By: Kitjan
Originally posted by Feralfire How would l go about setting up NtN to track it? This one is a little confusing because Arcane Blast is a debuff, I believe. Try setting it up as a debuff on the player and see if NTK picks it up then.

Re: Re: Additional Bars
Posted By: Kitjan
Yeah, you have to do that with another bar in a different group (so they can be on top of each other.) Again, separate the three buff names with commas. But at least that's just two bars in two groups instead of six bars! I don't know that there's a guarantee of which one will be on top, though. Something that occurred to me: You c...

Re: Enabling blink
Posted By: Kitjan
Thanks, Ross. That interface is proving to be too arcane; I'll have to figure a more intuitive way to enable blink that works with the menu framework I have.
