Indeed, I do care ;-)
I understand the second suggestion, but I'm not sure what you're referring to with #108. From what I understand, the underscore character is an acceptable dummy variable. Is that not correct?
Anyhow, thanks for the tip on the member tables; Mem usage stays very exceptionally low, now.

Thanks for the modifications to Knurl! Someone had posted about it on the Knurl comments page, but I haven't gotten a chance to play (or even log in) in a few days. (It's trial and error for me, too...)
As for "loosing aggro", I have no plans to implement it in the near future. If Aloft has this feature (and it works well) then...

Posted By: danltiger
Reversing the aggro coloring is rather easy, but it does require editing the main addon.
if shouldDisplayThreat(unit) then
plate.threatOverlay:Show()
if unit.threatSituation == "LOW" then
plate.threatOverlay:SetVertexColor(.75,1,0,1)
elseif unit.threatSituation == "MEDIUM" then
plate.threatOverlay:SetVertexColor(...

Scale the tooltip? Do you mean, "scale the nameplate?"
If the latter; It's not all that much trouble to edit the theme file, and change the scale of each element. If you're looking for a slider or something, that would have to be implemented in the base addon, since this is just a theme/layout.

Posted By: danltiger
Check out the Knurl theme; Open up the 'skin.lua' file, and take a look at line 28:
return unit.health.." / "..unit.healthmax
to get health %, change it to:
(corrected)
healthpercent = 100* (unit.health / unit.healthmax)
return ceil(healthpercent ).."%"
You can do fun coloring stuff, too, by using escape sequences...

Re: Getting this error on my druid.
Posted By: danltiger
It seems like it's a problem with the saved variables. Trashing the WTF file usually clears that up (I hate doing that, since I have to reconfigure everything) which will revert to the original configuration.
Was it the newest version? Which options were you using?
I'll try to reproduce the problem, but if I can't figure that...

I don't currently have a mage to test, but I'll see if I can grab a friend to work with me on this.
Edit: Apparently, I need to add 410065408 to the raw mage threat, in order to come up with the right number. Makes me wonder about other classes, and what kind of problems they may be encounte...

No special procedures are required; Just decompress the 'TidyPlatesKnurl' folder to your addons folder.

Aqua,
Played around in Photoshop, and came up with something neat:
Knurl Theme
(It's called Knurl because the bar texture was supposed to look knurled..)
Anyway, it's got health text. Not sure if it's what you were looking for, but I commented in the skin.lua file about using the delegate function to send text to the 'sp...

Heya Otto! They look good! (the elvish script in the stat bar is a nice touch)
The elite overlay is working, again, so that's one less bit of grief..
I like the auto-hide/show stuff, too :-)

Posted By: danltiger
There is, but I haven't done much with it, yet. It would be controlled by a delegate function in the theme file, but I have not documented any of this, so it would probably be challenging to figure it out on your own. I'd be happy to modify one of the themes to test this out; Which one are you using (if not the default)?

Posted By: danltiger
I haven't forgotten about you guys! Just been updating my other projects.
I tested the filigree idea, and the extra hearts, and (to me) it looks VERY busy. My feeling is that I should leave this particular theme as-is, and work on a new one, that incorporates the level/etc. from the start. Perhaps a multi-heart bar, ala Zelda...

First, I don't have an ETA on the GUI config. In fact, I've put it on the back burner, since my design choices have made it more complicated.

Hey there Otto,
Looks neat! Feel free to post it in the 'Optional Files' section. :-)
One of the things that I've been working on is the ability to package theme files, which override the default settings. Currently, I've got two examples available, with more on the way. Once I'm fairly happy with the functionality, I'll put...

The game client supplies the nameplates; All nameplate addons work by intercepting the existing ones. I would really like the range increased, myself..

Woah, lots of messages! Julith, big thanks for the fix. :-) And, that wasn't the only problem that needed fixing; 'Plates was using a bit too many cpu cycles for my liking.

Posted By: danltiger
I can't take credit for the fading; The client creates and positions the nameplates, and handles the fading. Since the nameplate's parent frame is protected, only Blizzard code can mess with it during combat. I can mess with anything below it, without being worried about anything breaking, but the client will set the transparency o...

For convenience, I will now provide a theme file (you can find it in the Optional Files section of Tidy Plates's page) to turn off the level text. It will be updated for the most current version.

Certainly, I can do that. However, having started a hunter, I can say that using the monitor with my pet is very very nice. So, what I'll probably do is link the pop-up to whenever there's more than one threat in the target's list, regardless of the party status. That should work for any pet-using class.
