WoW Digsite Progressbar

[Amexi]

Hai.

Is there a way to get the Digsite Progressbar moved? I've tried a couple of things but I really can't get it to be moved. Why I want to move it is because it's right under my actionbars so I can't see it. Tried setpoint on ArcheologyDigsiteProgressBar and I tried to copy the Blizzard_ArchaeologyProgressBar code and move it in there but with no luck.

If there's an easy way to move it, which I'm to stupid to find out by myself, it would be really helpful!

Thanks.

That will work, but you need to ClearAllPoints first, and you can't do it until the Blizzard_ArchaeologyUI addon has loaded.

local f = CreateFrame("Frame")
f:RegisterEvent("ADDON_LOADED")
f:SetScript("OnEvent", function()
     if not ArcheologyDigsiteProgressBar then return end
     ArcheologyDigsiteProgressBar:ClearAllPoints()
     ArcheologyDigsiteProgressBar:SetPoint("TOP", UIErrorsFrame, "BOTTOM", -20, 0)
     f:UnregisterAllEvents()
     f:SetScript("OnEvent", nil)
end)

That won't work, because it's just creates a second object with the same name -- the first object still exists, but now you can't access it through that name anymore.

Hm okay, I think I understand how this works now. But if I want to, in the future, to skin the progress bar, is that a hard thing to do? Like, do I have to write my own progress bar with all the archaeology events etc then? Or can I use something like:

ArcheologyDigsiteProgressBar.FillBar:SetTexture()

Still in my learning process of things, just created my own castbars and that was a real pain so I do understand if it wouldn't be just that simple.

ArcheologyDigsiteProgressBar.FillBar:SetStatusBarTexture("Path\\To\\The\\Texture")
