⭐ Highlights

  • Center-screen buff/cooldown layout
  • Dynamic Multi-Cluster mode (up to multiple groups)
  • Per-cluster behavior controls (flow, growth, pinning, size, sample display)
  • Assign tracked cooldown IDs to specific clusters
  • Live in-game config updates (no reload needed for most changes)
  • Standalone addon (no ElvUI/Masque required)

✅ Cluster System (Updated)

You now have flexible cluster behavior instead of one fixed mode:

  • Set each cluster to Horizontal or Vertical flow
  • For vertical clusters, choose Grow Up / Grow Down and pin position
  • Control inactive preview behavior per cluster:
    • Hide Inactive
    • Show Inactive
  • Assign each tracked cooldown/buff entry to the cluster you want

Example usage

If you want to monitor missing buffs, put them in a cluster set to Show Inactive.
If you only want active effects visible, keep that cluster on Hide Inactive.


⚙️ Customization

Adjust directly in the options panel:

  • Icon size and spacing
  • Per-row icon size overrides
  • Charge/stack text size, position, X/Y offset
  • Cooldown text size and position
  • Show/Hide cooldown swipe
  • Hide viewer while mounted
  • Lock/unlock cluster dragging and placement

🔒 Stability / Quality

  • Smooth layout updates
  • Improved positioning behavior
  • “Jumping” layout issues addressed for better consistency
