Release: Aloft-4.1.2-2013
Posted By: acapela
a new release of Aloft is available (pending moderator approval): Aloft-4.1.2-2013.
this has just a couple of small bugfixes in it, to help with some graphical artifacts various of us have been seeing.
i was not able to reproduce a problem reported with target cast bars, in which pieces of the cast bar were left behind when the...

Just out of curiosity - is there any performance-tuning planned for this addon in future?
yeah, this has been done in the past, and will be done again in the future.
a big issue with these benchmarking addons is that they track things categorically by addon. Aloft is large/complex, but in contrast...

no, any graphic elements that are "attached" to the nameplate go away when the nameplate goes away (via to visibility/autoshow/keybindings/etc), including the raid...

Re: Re: Re: Critters
Posted By: acapela
edit: confirmed. critters and vanity pets have no "bar-style" nameplates (not even in the default Blizzard UI), and therefore no support in Aloft/etc. they have only "text-style" nameplates (which you can enable/disable via Blizzard standard "Names" interface options).
looks like we are out of luck: there is just no way to spot cr...

yeah, there is some ambiguity here that should probably be documented in a FAQ.

a new release of Aloft is available, pending moderator approval: Aloft-4.1.1-2007.
since there is no patch waiting for us this morning, this should be reasonably well tested (heh, if you want to believe that :)). this release contains a "configuration preview" feature, and fixes for various small issues recently reported. please r...

there are examples of the text tags, in the "Acapela" preset, under "Name Text>Advanced>Format". apply the preset, and take a look.

I just had an Idea, if you ever plan to implement a player energy bar atached to the target frame just recycle the Threatbar. Should be fairly simple that way just make it visual only on the current target and use the energy % to estimate how full the bar is. Color it yellow and hide it while there is...

this helps narrow it down quite a bit. i should be able to reproduce, and i should be able to figure out what to do about it (if anything; if combat is locking something out, there may not be anything that can be done).
thanks...

i am definitely seeing a problem in which adjusting level text does...

not at this time. it is on the TODO list.
the gotcha is getting text to orient accordingly. there may be ways to induce this to happen (through contorting the shape/size of text regions, and bundling some rotated fonts with Alof...

you could try disabling everything under the "Visibility" options except "Visibility>Always Show Current Target" and "Visibility>Use Nameplate Alpha" (and "Use Nameplate Alpha" will require the AloftAlpha module to be enabled).
