Gladdy - TBC
Gladdy is a powerful arena addon with various modules which can be enabled/disabled and configured in behaviour/appearance.
Known Conflicts

This is caused by dG killshot classic. It overwrites a Blizzard API function "IsActiveBattlefieldArena()". Delete lines 43-46 in dgks_classic.lua

Can I use the addon also outside Arena for monitoring group cds?
No. There is addons like OmniCD. Gladdy is for Arena mostly. Check it out.
Using TPTP's totem plates, but Gladdy's totem pulse timer. Got it working decently well, however when hovering over a totem (mouseover), the pulse timer disappears (suspect the pulse timers are at a lower frame level/strata than the plates). Is there any quick fix for this? Thanks!
With update 2.11-Release a new bug has been introduced where Nameplates are not showing for certain mobs and other players when using ElvUI Nameplates and Gladdy. From testing and other people reporting same issue in the ElvUI support discord channel, we've found that Gladdy TotemPlates is the cause of issue here. When disabling TotemPlates the issue is gone and all ElvUI Nameplates are shown correctly.
Could you verify @DnB_Junkee? :)
I will look into it, thanks for the report. ElvUI must have changed something in their behaviour maybe. Please send me the version of ElvUI regarding that as well, so I can pinpoint the issue better.
Feel free to add information to the bug ticket here: https://github.com/XiconQoo/Gladdy-TBC/issues/53
Would it be possible to get the ability to move the totem icons + pulse bar/text position please? Thanks!
The totem icons are exactly on top of the actual nameplate.
I can't move the nameplate, as this is restricted by blizzard. Are you sure, you want to move the totemicon, as this would mean, that the clickable nameplate might be not where the totem icon is?
I can add some offsets for the pulse if detached from totemplate, sure.
In reply to DnB_Junkee:
I noticed that the icons and pulse are aligned and tied to the nameplate/clickable area of the nameplate yes.
Personally i use threatplates for the totem icons and disable gladdys totem icons but i leave the pulse timer on. The main reason is threatplates elevates the icons position above the clickable area which can make them far easier to spot when there is a crowd of nameplates/icons in my experience. Its not a huge deal to be able to move the totem icons + pulse timer text but it would be nice for increased visibility/for cases like mine.
Sure mate, adding offset options will not be an issue. Added to my feature requests (https://github.com/XiconQoo/Gladdy-TBC/issues/54)
Hi I'm having a weird issue, none of the spec based cooldowns (shadowstep, preparation, pain suppression ETC) are appearing in the cooldown area, I've tried everything I can think of including reinstalling the addon and using a default profile I just can't seem to get them to show outside of the test mode. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I am investigating the issue right now. Thanks
fixed with v2.11-Release
Is there any way to thin outline or thick outline the fonts (name, health and castbar text)
Thanks!
there will be for health-/powerbar next release. I can add an option for castbar as well
Any plans to add the default blizzard arena frames?
do you mean default blizzard layout for gladdy frames?
In reply to DnB_Junkee:
Yes :D
no plans on this
There's a bug that occurs infrequently, where when someone trinkets it doesn't show that they used trinket.
Hard to debug on my end. I literary use the same logic as the default blizzard UI.
