Adjusting default castbar. Texture help.

[karmamuscle]

Hey.
I am trying to modify the default castbar and have gotten this far.

This is the lua code I have

local c = CastingBarFrame
c:ClearAllPoints()
c:SetWidth(250)
c:SetPoint("BOTTOM", UIParent, 0, 200)
c.SetPoint = function() end

I have tried various approaches to this, from things I found on wowwiki, but with no luck at all.

What do I need to do, to get the casting bar border texture to follow the width of the casting bar?

The width and height of the castbar border texture is hard coded and not relative:

<Texture name="$parentBorder" file="Interface\CastingBar\UI-CastingBar-Border">
<Size>
	<AbsDimension x="256" y="64"/>
</Size>
<Anchors>
	<Anchor point="TOP">
		<Offset>
			<AbsDimension x="0" y="28"/>
		</Offset>
	</Anchor>

You'll have to set the texture relative to the castbar frame.
Unfortunately the texture has to be a little bit larger than the castbar frame (the border has to be outside the statusbar ... not inside).

getglobal(c:GetName().."Border"):ClearAllPoints()
getglobal(c:GetName().."Border"):SetPoint("TOPLEFT", "CastingBarFrame", "TOPLEFT", -(c:GetWidth()*0.18), c:GetHeight()*1.1)
getglobal(c:GetName().."Border"):SetPoint("BOTTOMRIGHT", "CastingBarFrame", "BOTTOMRIGHT", c:GetWidth()*0.18, -(c:GetHeight()*1.1))

Guess you'll have to set new points for all other elements of the castbar frame too.

Thanks Duugu, worked like a charm
