New Features

• Import from Arc UI (work in progress) - Bring your Arc UI icons, groups and bars over (Import / Export > Arc UI).
• ArcUI ProcTracker moves in - With ArcUI ProcTracker installed, Arc Auras asks at login which of its trackers to bring over, in the same places with the same looks.
• Bar skins - Save a bar's look as a skin and use it on any bar, switching by class, spec or talent.
• Glows on shaped icons - Glows take the shape of circle, diamond and hexagon icons.

Improvements

• Sliders - Smoother dragging, with - and + steppers.
• Faster options panel - No more stutter on clicks.
• Glow speed - Ants and Proc glows have a Speed setting too.
• Tidier sidebar - Each layout lists + Add New first, then its groups, with bars and free icons in folds of their own.

Bug Fixes

• Icons stay in place - Icons in a group no longer move on their own after a login or spec change.
• Glow fixes - Glows on missing icons no longer get cut off, and button glows on masked icons run at the right speed.
• Stack bar colors - No more flash on the first stack or a new color after a reload.
• Proc Tracker import - "Draw Behind Border" glows keep their backing.
• ArcUI ProcTracker move - Trackers switched off in ArcUI ProcTracker show in the move window too, so you can bring them over for your other specs.

3.0.0

Cooldown Manager Bars, potion and healthstone templates, and texts you can pin to your own icons.

New Features

• Cooldown Manager Bar - A new bar that copies one of the Cooldown Manager's Tracked Bars, timer and all, in your own look. Handy for timers no aura can track, like Crusading Strikes' swing timer.
• Potion and healthstone templates - Item icons offer Combat Potion, Health Potion and Healthstone templates. Each follows the one you last used, as the Cooldown Manager does.
• Pin a text to your own icons - A text can sit on any Arc Auras icon or bar, aura icons included. Pick it on screen.

Improvements

• Combat potion duration - A combat potion icon shows how long your potion's buff has left, also when copied from the Cooldown Manager.
• Masque - Every group shows up in Masque, also ones in the Cooldown Manager look, and Masque Skins is on when Masque is installed.

Bug Fixes

• Buffs copied as debuffs - Copying your Cooldown Manager no longer turns some buffs, like Crash Lightning, into debuff icons.
• Debuffs in Dynamic aura groups - A debuff copied from the Cooldown Manager, like Flame Shock, now shows in a Dynamic aura group.
• Dynamic aura groups after logging in - Icons that load for a spec or talent no longer stay empty when you log in inside a dungeon or in combat.

New Features

• Button glow fade out - Set how long a button glow fades when it stops. By default it stops at once.

Improvements

Bug Fixes

Improvements

• No charges - A charge spell's last state is now called No charges (it was Depleted).
• Other languages - Spell, item, class and power names show in your game's language, the options search finds accented and Cyrillic letters, and buttons fit longer words.
• Option labels - A long label now wraps instead of being cut off.

Bug Fixes

• Buffs and debuffs - Aura groups showing both now add their debuffs reliably, and switching back to Buffs or to nameplates removes them at once.

2.2.0

The first retail release of Arc Auras. Feedback is welcome on Discord.

New Features

• Arc Auras on retail - Icons, icon groups and bars for your cooldowns, auras and resources, set up from one panel.
• Import from ArcUI ProcTracker - Bring your trackers over, switched-off ones too, with the same looks, sounds and counts. Each one you import is switched off in ArcUI ProcTracker, so nothing shows twice. Arc Auras offers it when it finds ProcTracker set up.
• Special Auras - Doom Winds, Tempest, Storm Unleashed, Elemental Tempest, Deeply Rooted Elements, Soulburst, Nature's Guardian and Power Infusion, as icons or deck bars. Talent decks load only with their talent.
• Pin any text - Stack counts, custom texts, keybinds and bar texts can sit on an action button, a Cooldown Manager icon or any named frame.
• Cooldown ID pins - Pin to one exact Cooldown Manager icon, even when two icons share a spell.
• Resource bars - Rune and Essence recharge countdowns, bar-style slots, charged combo points, fold in half, and an option to hide Blizzard's class bar.
• A look per form, spec or talent - A resource bar can keep its own colors, texts and ticks for each druid form, each spec, or with and without a talent.
• Sound item - A sound or spoken line with nothing on screen, on the same triggers as Custom Icons, a condition, or an aura gained, stacking or fading.
• Conditions - Load, fade or play a sound by combat, aggro, mounted, group, instance, raid encounter and more.
• Charge spells - Their states read Ready, Recharging and Depleted.
• Totem slots - An empty slot shows the totem icon.

Bug Fixes

• Glows over borders - The glow on an aura icon draws over its border instead of hiding behind it.

Known Issues

• Waiting for patch 12.1.5 - Debuff-colored borders, stack colors on aura bars and debuff type looks are hidden until then.
• Sound item aura rules - Until patch 12.1.5, Quiet for does not limit them, so they play every time.
• /arcauras - With ArcUI installed, /arcauras opens ArcUI. Use /arcui2 instead.
