I appreciate all the replies...

Thanks, this is good to know. When I "For giggles I used the whole thing in my hooksecurefunc()" the definition was there (but I didn't know it needed to be defined there

):

lua Code:

hooksecurefunc("ExhaustionTick_OnEvent", function(self, event, ...)
        local exhaustionStateID = GetRestState();
        if (exhaustionStateID == 1) then
            MainMenuExpBar:SetStatusBarColor(0, 1, 0);
            ExhaustionLevelFillBar:SetVertexColor(0, 1, 0, .2);
            ExhaustionTickHighlight:SetVertexColor(0, 1, 0);
        elseif (exhaustionStateID == 2) then
            MainMenuExpBar:SetStatusBarColor(0.58, 0.0, 0.55, 1.0);
            ExhaustionLevelFillBar:SetVertexColor(0.58, 0.0, 0.55, 0.15);
            ExhaustionTickHighlight:SetVertexColor(0.58, 0.0, 0.55);
        end
    end)

    <HighlightTexture name="ExhaustionTickHighlight" file="Interface\MainMenuBar\UI-ExhaustionTickHighlight"

</Button>

Notice the way the script functions are registered. This grabs the function immediately and sets it to the associated

script. hooksecurefunc() will not work on this. You'll have to hook the frame's script handler directly with

something like this.

lua Code:

ExhaustionTick:HookScript("OnEvent",function(self,event,...)
    MainMenuExpBar:SetStatusBarColor(1,1,1,1);
end);

Your code is conflicting with Blizzards and the event API will randomly choose which it'll fire the event first for. This

one seems to actually be called instead of set as a script handler, so hooksecurefunc() will work on this one.

lua Code:

hooksecurefunc("ReputationWatchBar_Update",function()
    ReputationWatchStatusBar:SetStatusBarColor(1,1,1,1);
end);

This is good info, and both code examples work perfectly.

This also works perfectly.

So is return nothing just putting the kibosh on any subsequent SetStatusBarColor attempts from Blizzard?

Both methods acheive the desired result...
