The "Perfect" Action Bar Border.
 
Hello,

I'm looking to get the perfect 1px action bar border. Currently I'm using rActionBarStyler and rActionButtonStyler (Luna). This gives me that perfect border, but I need to use a size of ~36 to get the perfect look, when I'm looking for something smaller

Any helping me here?

You might try Button Facade with ButtonFacade: PixelSkin.

When you mention perfect 1px borders you should turn off ui scaling, if you use it, and let WoW handle the scale for you (1:1 px)

If that's not something you would like you could always try moving the action bars pixel by pixel and see if you can find a location where the pixels are not smeared.

I use seperate frames for each button and add a backdrop to those with border size 1 / action bar scale. Perhaps not the most efficient but I found it's the only way to get a proper 1-pixel border.

That must take a while to set up :o If I had time, I would do that... maybe I could borrow your code? It's in FreeUI, I assume.

It's handled by code, I didn't actually write out individual frames for each button (though I could, it'd be mainly copy-paste, but it'd be way too much code).

It's in my UI, just a bit I added into a modded rActionButtonStyler.

Thanks for the help guys. I'm definitely going to look at one you've done Haleth, and see if I can reproduce it myself. If I can't, that sucks, but I got a nice look without action bars and I don't exactly need them as long as I have a way to track cool downs without it - which I do.

I'll throw a little link down here to show (the UF is an oUF_P3lim edit) what I'm working on. Just 'cause I can.

I got it working perfectly, thanks Haleth! :D Had to change the UI around a bit to accomodate, but the changes were for the better, anyway :)

I couldn't get it. Would you mind doing just an upload of your action bars for me Zagrei? I'm a bit new to all of this and it would be a big help.

I use Dominos, first of all. Second, I had to do some LUA editing to get it to work, such as removing all of the FreeUI calls (fonts, textures, etc), and replacing them with my own. Then, I also had to change a but of the scaling that Haleth uses, because when I scaled Dominos around, it wouldn't be pixel perfect anymore.

Honestly, other than that, I just copied-and-pasted Haleth's code, made those modifications, and it works like a charm. :)

Forgive me for necro-ing this thread, but I have been trying to modify Haleths code all day to also work on Class/Shapeshift bars to no avail--is there some way to do this, and I am just failing miserably at it?

use instead of textures backdrops, its 100% pixelperfect

aiikachi 01-04-11 07:54 PM

Well, I managed to do what I wanted...but now my concern seems to be a memory leak. Memory is an issue for me sooo...Is there any other events I can register or whatnot to make this work without my memory going up constantly?
