ElvUI Progressive DataBars Colors
ElvUI Progressive DataBars
The default DataBars (XP, Honor, Artifact, Reputation) in ElvUI are visually boring, so spice them up! This plugin should work with most ElvUI plugins, but if it doesn't, file a bug report via the link below.
ElvUI_ChatTweaksContinued is NOT compatible. The problem is entirely on their side. I have reported the issue, but they choose to ignore it.

I accept cookies, treats, donations, game time, and hot Night Elf women. Er wait... Anyway, if you want to help me out, you can find me in these places:
Hmmm... having problems with Shadowed & Light (I see your change log says it should work now). When I install this addon it makes it so S&L disappears from the main menu down the left side. I assume because of S&L's own DataBars features. Hoping you can get them to work together!
In reply to SunshinyDave:
S&L works for me, and I can see them on the left side of the options. I don't recommend using both to change the DataBars colours at the same time. Pick one.
Maybe I'm missing something, but I've set the setting the same as my XP bar and that works perfectly. My Rep bar is faded like no one's business. I cannot seem to figure out how to make it opaque rather than transparent. I disable the add-on and it works. Re-enable, nada. Thoughts?
I emailed a photo to the email i the description.
In reply to mike10101011:
Toggle off the Blend Progress setting. Leaving it on will make the bar go from transparent to opaque as you gain reputation with a faction. Turning that settings off will always have an opaque bar.
In reply to Myrroddin:
I just spent a while looking for that setting, and I cannot find it. I should also mention this is in Classic. I saw the screenshot posted here, but I don't actually have the Add-On in the ElvUI Menu.
This is very nice, but having a small issue.
On the rep bar, I want to change the color to custom. I adjusted the colors, selected "custom" and unmarked capped and blend progress.
But the bar is none of the colors shown on my custom menu. (It's sort of an off-red, where I have paragon set to deep violet.)
I did try turning off other addons, so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. (No one else seems to have this issue, so I'm guessing it's me.)
In reply to Arcas_Devlin:
Can you send me links to pictures of your settings and the bars?
Thanks for this. Works great!
