Thanks for the insight SDPhantom.


I'm on the way of creating an oUF layout from this. I really wanted to do this for a long time. Now I'm finally able to make it work properly.

I'm currently setting up the orb templates in my GFX program. Currently I have two templates in mind that I want to bring to life.

Outer ring templates


It can be combined with an orb in the center.

Thanks to SetPortraitToTexture() [http://wowprogramming.com/docs/api/S...raitToTexture] it is even possible to work with circular icon symbols. It may not seem that the icon is circular but in fact it is.

local icon = select(3,GetSpellInfo(12880))
  --icon = "Interface\\LFGFrame\\UI-LFR-PORTRAIT"
  local t = helper:CreateTexture(nil,"OVERLAY",nil,-8)
  t:SetTexCoord(0, 1, 0, 1)
  t:SetAllPoints()
  --t:SetTexture(icon)
  SetPortraitToTexture(t,icon)

Result:


So a template-idea can be adding a circular cast icon inside a circular castbar and ring unitframes.

*edit*

I made the code of the stuff above available via SVN:
