Folkplates
- By
A custom built nameplate addon with full customization, ToT (targetoftarget), CC, custom placements, custom Aura and CC display.
What's new
**Fixed nameplate stacking on the Anniversary client.** The stacking rectangle each plate
hands to the client (`SetStackingBoundsFrame`) was an empty frame, and the client measures
what a frame *draws* - so every plate counted as having no size and they all piled on top of
each other, whatever the "Stack nameplates" setting said. The frame now carries an invisible
texture (the same trick Plater and ElvUI use) and stacking works again.
* **Fixed the spacing sliders doing nothing.** On this client the space between stacked
plates is the size of that stacking rectangle (the old `nameplateOverlapH` / `nameplateOverlapV`
CVars are still registered but Folkplates now pins them to 1 so the rectangle alone counts).
The rectangle is sized from everything the plate can draw (bar, name, level, debuff and CC
rows, cast bar, target-of-target text) times the *Horizontal / Vertical spacing* values, so
1.0 = stacked plates just touch, lower lets them overlap a little, higher leaves air. Sliders
apply on release, also in combat and with "Let Folkplates manage these settings" off. Old-API
clients keep driving the CVars.
* New `/fp stack` command and *Show stacking areas* button (Game Settings tab): paints each
plate's stacking area green for 8 seconds and prints the game's current stacking state.
`/fp cvars` prints the stacking state too.
* **Fixed "only my debuffs" showing everyone's debuffs in a raid.** The row treated the
client's `castByPlayer` flag as "cast by me", but on this client it is true for debuffs from
*any* player character. "Mine" is now strictly what you or your pet applied.
* **Choose exactly which debuffs to show.** New *Which debuffs* mode on the Auras & CC tab:
*My debuffs* (default), *Chosen debuffs (from anyone)*, *Chosen debuffs + all of mine*, or
*All debuffs*. *Choose debuffs...* (also `/fp debuffs`) opens a debuff list window with every
class's TBC debuffs and their icons - tick Judgement of Wisdom, Faerie Fire, Sunder Armor,
Curse of the Elements... - plus tick/untick-all per class and a box for custom spell IDs.
Names and icons come from the game, so all ranks (and rogue poison ranks) are matched. The
live preview's elite target shows your chosen debuffs.
## 1.1.0
* **Fixed** the health bar background and border not rendering: flat colours are now drawn
with `SetColorTexture` on dedicated frames layered explicitly under / over the bar
(background frame -> status bar -> foreground frame with border, highlight and texts). Same
structure for the cast bar. Health is also polled every 0.25s as a safety net so the bar
always depletes.
* **Level text** is now its own element with font, size, outline, colour (difficulty or
custom), position (left/right of the name, or inside the bar left/right/center), gap and
offsets.
* **Crowd control icons** beside the health bar (right by default) for CC from any caster:
Polymorph, Sap, Blind, Gouge, Fear, Psychic Scream, Howl of Terror, Death Coil, Seduction,
Banish, Shackle, Hibernate, Cyclone, Freezing Trap, Wyvern Sting, Scatter Shot, Scare Beast,
Entangling Roots, Frost Nova, stuns, silences and more (all ranks / locales). Own section
under Auras & CC with position, size, count, spacing, duration, swipe, border, extra spell IDs,
and the **name of who applied it** (class coloured, "You" for your own, position/font options).
* **Live preview**: a movable row of fake plates (elite target casting with your debuffs, a
crowd-controlled enemy, an enemy player channelling, a friendly tank) rendered by the real
plate code, with draining health, looping casts, cycling threat states and ticking auras.
Shown automatically while the options are open (Preview tab / `Show / hide preview`).
* Text alignment everywhere: name (left/center/right above the bar), level (three new
"above the bar" positions plus name-attached and inside-bar), target-of-target (left/
center/right below the bar), cast bar spell name and time (each left/center/right), aura
and CC duration / stack text (9-point anchors inside the icon). Health text and threat %
already had left/center/right.
* Health background can follow the bar colour (darkened).
* Minimap button rewritten to the plain LibDataBroker + LibDBIcon pattern (own file).
## 1.0.0
Initial release for TBC Classic Anniversary (Interface 20506).
* Health bar, name/level, cast bar, auras, raid icon, target/focus/mouseover highlight.
* Threat colouring with tank / DPS points of view, automatic role detection (Defensive
Stance, Bear Form, Righteous Fury, raid Main Tank), off-tank detection and threat % text.
* Target-of-target name on every plate with "<< YOU" marker and class colours.
* Live-updating options (`/fp`), profiles, minimap button, SharedMedia support.
* Managed nameplate CVars and clickable-area sizing for both the modern and the classic
nameplate API generations.
