Slash Command(includes usage info): "/popbar"
PowerBar is meant to be PopBar's replacement. Infact, it is a direct decendant of PopBar, and started out as an attempte to make PopBar's code flexible enough to support multiple bars.
PowerBar will do everything that PopBar did, and more. The main difference between the two is that PowerBar can configure up to 12 bars, each capable of containing 144 buttons(12rows, 12columns).
Each bar can be configured to be anywhere between 1 row, 1 column, aka 1 button, to 12 rows, 12 columns, aka 144 buttons. The configuration will be stored per character/per realm. And there will be a GUI for configuring the bars(not a Cosmos/Khaos GUI).
I have extensive plans for PowerBar, including the ability to allow individual movement of each button, and the ability to store locally in the client the behaviors of the buttons, which means no ID limit(optionally). Also plan on having several behaviors available for the buttons, off the top of my head those are: ID(the standard mode you always see), Cast Spell, Cast Pet Spell, Use Item, Run Macro, possibly Run Script, and a few extras like the ability to have a button cycle between multiple functions.
And of course all the old PopBar features, such as autohiding parts or all of the bar, and ability to choose the ID range the bars use(if any) and the ability to drag the bars anywhere you want. Hide/show empty buttons, range coloring, etc. As well as some new stuff such as the ability to only show buttons that are usable at the moment,(I call this Green Light mode) which is intended to be used as a simple display bar with a few actions that you want to be alerted of when they are ready to be nailed(I expect this to be most useful to rogues/prwoling druids). Also the ability to make certain bars/button not clickable so they can be used for display only.
The current state of PowerBar is that of PopBar that can be configured with up to 12 bars. The bindings aren't in place. PowerBar wont be released in any true form until I have the GUI ready(there will be a custom GUI for the key bindings, and the bindings will not show in the normal bindings, otherwise it would have to take up 1728 bindings in the key bindings screen).
For now I will submit a version of PopBar that works with Cosmos 2.
