Triggers are being recoded. They'll be no way to take your old triggers and convert them. You'll need to redo them.
No idea on a release date.
Galvin's UnitBars is a resource tracking addon. Tracks things like mana, combo points, etc

Can we get a config option to put the % outside (to the right) of the bar? I know I can put it in to the text string, but was hoping it'd be easy to have that as an option. =) something like [ BAR STUFF] ] 100% or whatnot.
In reply to darvoso:
That's a font option under text. Horizontal alignment right. Then adjust it with an offset after
I should change these options to be easier to useIn reply to GalvinSR:
Oh, make another text line (I literally though it'd make a linebreak!) and change the offset in font. TY!
post moved to "Retail" version
would be nice if you add a feature to right click on bars and have the contextual menu you have on default unitframes, i mean reset instance, icon marking, leave party etc to disable default hugly unitframes
In reply to KorvaN1:
Thanks for the suggestion, but that's outside the scope of my addon. I think there are some addons that make accessing that menu easier
Is there any way you can add the ability to only show text on mouseover?
In reply to virkallea:
Not atm, that something I can look into, for now you can try unlocking bars, but then they're movabable. But you can mouse over
Combo points have stopped displaying. Recreating the combo bar does not remedy the issue.
In reply to Malamor:
Glad I found this, combo point bar worked last night log on this morning seems broke cant fix no matter what settings /reload. hope its fixed soon.
In reply to Jhoyt1:
I'll start a level 1 rogue and look into it. I tested all of this stuff when the open beta took place with premades. But things break. Most likely the latest update I just did broke it. I'll look into it late today.
For now try rolling back to the previous release. Normally I don't suggest this for the live version cause the profile data gets changed and becomes non backward compatible. But for classic, I didn't make any changes like that. So it should be safe to do.
In reply to Jhoyt1:
Ok just fixed it, not tested. But wanted to get this out quickly as possible
In reply to GalvinSR:
Seems to be working like normal thank you :) loving the add-on, keep up the good work!
Thank you for this helpful addon.
BTW in the update of today, combo points are not showin at all, even when selectin colors, or creating a new one.

Hello, thank you very much for this addon :)
I've got a suggestion: add mana and energy regen ticks to the mana and energy bars.
I know that you think it is more suitable to find a weakaura or something for that, but energy tickers are not like swing timers as they do belong to same concept of monitoring resources that galvin unit bars is used for. Also getting a separate addon to do this would no longer justify having galvin unit bars installed as these addons are whole bar replacements. I can't find any addon that is just a simple tick bar that would work seamlessly with galvin unit bars.
To give you a concrete example of this suggestion, have a look at: https://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/info8883-oUF_PowerSpark.html . Maybe you could reuse some code or not (it's a rather old addon). There's a screenshot illustrating how the tick display could work.
For the mana bar the timer should start after 5 seconds have passed since the player cast a spell that costs mana (maybe there's an API call to check for the 5sec rule, I've no idea) and should tick every 2 seconds.
For the energy bar the timer should tick every 2 seconds.
Just a simple overlay of a "spark" on the bars moving from the beginning to the end would be enough to display this tick, like a cast bar.
Thank you for reading all this, thanks in advance if you decide to implement this and thanks again for this addon! (really really useful as a druid!)
In reply to atbatbatb:
It takes a lot of time to add a bar, I have to figure out how it works with the UI, triggers, etc. Do I make it 2nd bar in one bar. Or make it a separate bar. Then I have to research how to accurately track it. Does lag affect the timing of the ticker etc etc. So it turns into a project, that could take weeks.
I use weakaurs for nearly my whole combat UI along with my mod on retail
Surprised you're not using weakauras, its a must have. The coding talent of those guys is way beyond mine. I could do it. But it may be weeks before I get it out. I'm about to release a new version on retail. Then apply those changes to classic for this week. Then I decide on the ticker thing
.
I can't get the pet health bar on my hunter to show up. I have it active, set to always show, but it never appears.
In reply to jillybean1899:
Try setting ALL in stances. That will force it to always be true. Incase theres a bug in there.
Also if you can try typing /run print(PetHasActionBar() or HasPetUI())
When you have a pet out. Tell me if it returns true or not. Don't have a hunter so cant test this my self
