Focal Point

Focal Point is a visual in-game editor for building and customizing unit frames directly in World of Warcraft.

Instead of navigating through endless option trees or adjusting coordinates blindly, you select a frame in the game world, move or resize it directly, and edit its properties in a context-sensitive inspector with immediate visual feedback.

Focal Point combines direct manipulation, structured editing, presets, profiles, demo data, and advanced text tools in one integrated workspace.

Why Focal Point is different

Edit frames directly in the game world instead of searching through nested option menus.
Select any frame and edit it in a context-sensitive inspector with immediate visual feedback.
Move and resize with the mouse, use Snap Lines for alignment, and fine-tune values when precision matters.
Choose between Quick and Expert workflows, depending on how much control you need.
Test layouts with demo data without waiting for the right target, boss, or combat situation.
Build custom text visually instead of manually writing complex tag strings.
Preview presets and changes safely before committing them to your active layout.

Visual editing workflow

Focal Point is built around a simple editing flow:

Select a unit from the sidebar or click its frame directly.
Move or resize the frame in the game world.
Adjust its properties in the inspector.
Preview the result immediately.
Save the layout as a profile or custom preset.

The editor keeps frame selection, positioning, styling, and preview in one place, reducing the need to switch repeatedly between configuration menus and the game world.
