TargetFrame SetTextCoords
 

i'm looking for a demonstration on how to cut out a portion of the PlayerFrame/TargetFrame with SetTextCoords as show here:


My intent is to use blizzards texture and not use a custom one to create thick health bar, but doing so without it being obvious(green highlighted square to cut and paste the part below it)

I've seen it done with a addon called Baik UnitFrame Module, but its complexity is far beyond my skills.

If you want to cut out the green rectangle it'll be something like tex:SetTexCoord(0.1, 0.12, 0.4, 0.45)
That's left, right, top, bottom. And the values are how deep into the image the cut is starting from top left

thanks for the reply, i uploaded a better picture of the area i want to cut(green), but doing so would leave a ugly mark on the left, so i was thinking using the purple highlighted area to copy and paste this portion of the frame, and drop it down to cover up the mark.

Then you should use texture mask on the default texture to completely cut out the separator with the sides and then cover the hole with the purple part
