Configuration
All options are available under Settings > AddOns > Hg Unit Frames.
Open configuration with /hguf, the minimap button, or the AddOn compartment entry. Each display has its own settings panel, while common settings and presets make it easy to configure the whole interface together.
Use Positioning mode to arrange frames and preview their layouts without needing a target, pet or group. In this mode, the tooltip hover each element will list which settings can affect it.
You can toggle in and out of it using right-click on the minimap icon.
