so, coloring a cast bar, or coloring some sort of cast warning text of some sort, for events with a "cast time", based on spell school looks like it could be tricky.
i suppose i could track SPELL_DAMAGE (and other such combat log DAMAGE events) and map SpellID to school over time, by sniffing the combat log. save the mapping in Saved Variables, and even let the user edit the mapping, specify custom colors for specific events, all that jazz.
anyway, thanks for the pointer. i will cogitate on this some more. at least it appears to be doable in some form, even if somewhat indirectly.
