Hide Dog-Tag while casting

[Virro]

Hey again!
So my Ui is taking form, but i have another question!

I have some Dog-Tag text on my unitframe showing me my Health, is it possible to hide that text while casting using a Dog-Tag code?

Thaks in advance!

[Virro]

Nothing =(?

Where did all the clever addon guys goo

Unfortunately I think most of the "clever addon guys" aren't using DogTags anymore. Pretty sure most of us switched to LuaTexts if we use Pitbull.

Oh okay, well Dog-Tags seem pretty easy, and they do the trick for me. Even though i did run into a minor problem as of recent.
So can this be done with the LuA thingy?

[Virro]

No1 can help me out with this?

LuaTexts can easily handle this.

Basic functionality:

local cast_data = CastData(unit)
if cast_data then
    return ''
else
    return '%s', HP(unit)
end

If i´m gonna switch to LuaTexts i need some help transforming my old DogTag scripts into LuaText. Here is what i got so far, can LuaTexts do this? and how?

Player:

HP: [Outline] [White HP:Short]

HP%: [(~IsMaxHP ? ~Dead ? Outline PercentHP:Round:HPColor)]


Target:

HP: [Outline] [White HP:Short]

HP%: [(~IsMaxHP ? ~Dead ? Outline PercentHP:Round:HPColor)]

Name: [Outline][Name:ClassColor:Truncate(30)]


Can i get this to work with LuaTexts?

PS: The % script is showing my percentage HP whenever my HP is below 100%, and is hidden when its 100%

Problem has been solved using DogTags, so i wont make the switch
Thanks to the people who helped me out anyway thou! <3

The entire reason LuaTexts was created is because of inefficiencies in DogTags (which can be so bad that FPS is severely impacted).

Well i bumped into a problem using LUA, i have my Hp displayed "Outside-Above-Left" over the HP bar, but it sticks out to the left. Using dogtags i could "push" the code to the right in the code edit box and move it to the right on my bar.
Not really sure how to move LUA text
