LUA Clas Color + Aggro Borders

[Dankz]

Simply trying to get KGPanels to be class colored unless the until has aggro, then red.

I'm using

local _, class = UnitClass("player");
if class == "WARRIOR" then
self:SetBackdropBorderColor(0.95, 0.23, 0.23, 0.50)
elseif class == "PRIEST" then
self:SetBackdropBorderColor(1, 0.96, 0.98, 0.50)
elseif class == "MAGE" then
self:SetBackdropBorderColor(0.00, 1, 1, 0.50)
elseif class == "DRUID" then
self:SetBackdropBorderColor(1, 0.49, 0.04, 0.50)
elseif class == "PALADIN" then
self:SetBackdropBorderColor(0.92, 0.22, 0.46, 0.50)
elseif class == "HUNTER" then
self:SetBackdropBorderColor(0.33, 0.86, 0.00, 0.50)
elseif class == "ROGUE" then
self:SetBackdropBorderColor(1, 0.94, 0.16, 0.50)
elseif class == "SHAMAN" then
self:SetBackdropBorderColor(0.13, 0.42, 1, 0.50)
elseif class == "WARLOCK" then
self:SetBackdropBorderColor(0.36, 0.18, 1, 0.50)
elseif class == "DEATHKNIGHT" then
self:SetBackdropBorderColor(0.77, 0.12, 0.23, 0.50)
end

for the class colored, simply want to add aggro indicator to it.

I'm not sure about the aggro color, but you need an onEvent check for target changed and check if that name is == your name.

However, there is an easier way to color with the class colors.

color = RAID_CLASS_COLORS[select(2, UnitClass("player"))]
self:SetBackDropBorderColor(color.r, color.g, color.b)

I was actually about to reply with the shorter version too. :-)

Cheers, for the code cleanup, but I didn't like blizzards default class colors. The mage is more teal then baby blue, and dint match my UI. But thanks for the input.

Still looking for someway to add Aggro color to the frames.

local color = RAID_CLASS_COLORS
color.MAGE.r, color.MAGE.g, color.MAGE.b = 0, 1, 1
...

Think you can that way edit the mage color right before it's used. ofc I recommend storing these colors at addon load so it's not called each time you want to set a background color.
