Focused! (Classic) – Changelog

[1.0.0] – 2025-11-18

Initial Release of Focused! (Classic)

This is the first public release of Focused! (Classic), a complete rewrite and rebrand designed to provide the ultimate focus frame experience for WoW Classic Era, Season of Discovery, and WotLK Classic.

Key Features

Dual Layouts & Modern UI

• Classic Style: An authentic recreation of the Blizzard Target-of-Target frame, repurposed as a Focus frame.
• Modern Style: A highly customizable, compact frame featuring:
• 3D Portrait support.
• Flippable Layout: Move the portrait to the left or right side.
• Dynamic Data: Health, Mana, and Cast bars for the focus and the focus's target.

• State-Based Button: A single, smart button that switches between "Set Focus" (+) and "Clear Focus" (X) automatically.

Secure Targeting & Macros

• Dynamic Macro System: Running /focusmacro auto-generates secure macros for your class (e.g., FC Kick, FC Polymorph).
• Secure Updates: These macros are automatically updated out-of-combat to use the most reliable targeting path available (@party1 if possible, falling back to /targetexact).
• Click Casting: The frame supports secure click-to-target logic.

"Helper" Modes (Auto-Marking)

A new, flexible Helper Mode system (configurable in Options) that can automatically apply a Cross {X} raid marker to your focus's target based on specific conditions:

• Auto-Mark Target: Automatically marks the unit your focus is targeting.
• Mark Dispelable: Marks the focus's target only if they have a debuff your class can dispel.
• Mark Interrupts: Marks the focus's target only if they are casting a dangerous spell (includes PVP and PVE spell lists).

Combat & Tracking

• Hybrid Cast Bar: Uses event-based tracking for instant updates on party members and reliable polling for other units.
• Raid Marker Persistence: Raid icons on your focus remain visible ("frozen") even if the unit goes out of range.
• Nameplate Integration: Intelligently uses nameplates to maintain tracking when stable unit tokens (partyX) aren't available.

Social

• Focus Sharing: Automatically broadcasts your focus target to other group members using the addon.
• Adoption: Optionally allows you to automatically "adopt" a focus target shared by a party member.

Options

• Full configuration panel (/fc options).
• Frame Scale slider (50% - 200%).
• Click-Through and Frame Lock toggles.
• Toggle visibility for Health/Mana/Cast bars and Raid Markers.
