I posted a barebone nameplate setup here:
http://www.wowinterface.com/forums/s...4&postcount=62

Most important are the following three.

- nameplate_create when we spawn the frame using a certain style.
- unit_added when we show the frame and set the unit of the frame.
- unit_removed when we hide the frame and remove the unit.

Is this possible with the default oUF core?

I need to be able to pass the nameplate base as an anchor frame into the Spawn function.

*edit*

Wooow. It actually works!



Fixed scaling:


magic bean:

function W:NAME_PLATE_UNIT_ADDED(unit)
  local nameplate = C_NamePlate.GetNamePlateForUnit(unit)
 
  if not nameplate.unitFrame then
    local unitFrame = oUF:Spawn(unit, A..nameplate:GetName())
    unitFrame:SetParent(nameplate)
    unitFrame:ClearAllPoints()
    unitFrame:SetPoint("CENTER")
    nameplate.unitFrame = unitFrame
    --mix-in ubm table data
    Mixin(unitFrame, UFM)
  end
 
  nameplate.unitFrame:UnitAdded(nameplate,unit)
end

Not perfect yet though. But it shows that it should be possible.

Currently I seem to struggle with the unit update. Nameplates shuffle units quite often and I need a way to tell oUF about the unit change.

Hasn't oUF a function to trigger a full update? Sth like UpdateAllElements.

If you want to test it here is the code I'm using atm:

Units do not update properly and clicking on a unit does not activate the correct unit.
