CoolDownManagerShape

Reshape Blizzard’s Cooldown Manager icons – make them flatter or wider, just like in the WeakAuras days.

CDMShape

Miss the sleek, flat icon bars from your WeakAuras days? CDMShape lets you change the shape of Blizzard's built-in Cooldown Manager icons – make them flatter at the same width, or any shape you like.

No new bars, no replacement – it works directly on Blizzard's own Cooldown Manager and keeps everything else as it is.


Features

Change the icon shape

  • Set width and height separately for each bar
  • The icon picture is cropped, not squashed – flat icons still look clean, just like in WeakAuras
  • All values are relative to Blizzard's size, so your Edit Mode settings are respected
  • Turn the shape change on or off per bar

Supported bars

  • Essential Cooldowns
  • Tracked Buffs

Each bar has its own settings.

Glows that fit

Proc glows and highlight effects adapt to the new icon shape automatically – no more square glows around flat icons. Works with Blizzard's glow and with glows from other addons.

Size and position

  • Bar size: scale the whole bar
  • Move with the mouse: a blue frame appears over the bar – just drag it
  • Set the exact X / Y position if you prefer precision
  • Optional: let the addon control the position, or keep using Blizzard's Edit Mode

Easy to configure

  • Clean settings menu with live preview
  • Click into any value and type it – typed values can be more precise than the slider steps
  • Minimap button (hourglass): left-click opens settings, right-click toggles moving both bars, drag to move it around the minimap
  • Also available via the AddOn compartment (minimap addon list) and Options → AddOns

Combat safe

CDMShape never repositions the bars during combat. Any changes are applied right after combat ends, so there are no errors or blocked actions.

Languages

English, Deutsch, Français, Español, Русский and 简体中文. Follows your game language automatically, or pick one manually in the settings.


Slash Commands

Command Description
/cdms Open the settings menu
/cdms minimap Show / hide the minimap button
/cdms reset Reset all bar settings

Notes

  • Blizzard's Cooldown Manager must be enabled in the game options – CDMShape changes its look, it doesn't replace it.
  • Other addons that restyle the Cooldown Manager may conflict with CDMShape. If something looks off, try disabling them temporarily.
  • Chinese menu text requires a font with Chinese characters. On non-Chinese game clients it may show as boxes – this only affects the addon's own menu.
  • Found a bug or have an idea? Feel free to leave a comment – feedback is always welcome!
