EclipseBar

Will the eclipsebar make it into the 1.5 release? If no, EvilPaul can you post your element please?

The element code is located over at oUF's issue list on Github. I haven't committed it because I'm not certain about it yet, and character transfers is making it hard to test.

It would be awesome if people could give the element a try, and say what they think about it's current implementation.

There's one change that I'm 100% sure I'll make to it however, and that's the removal of the text support in it. I don't see any need for it to be there instead of through tags/post updates.

I believe the element code is fairly solid, which is why I committed it. The problem is the layout code, as it is fairly specific.

You need to make sure you configure the status bars almost exactly as I have done in this example code: http://gist.github.com/574495
* The solar bar should be anchored to the texture of the lunar bar (this ensures that the bar positions update correctly)
* Both bars should only be anchored at one end, and should have a specific width (this ensure you do not get weird bar scaling)


The element is also currently missing any feedback from when the player gains/loses the buffs from reaching max power. I am not sure on how the default feedback should be displayed.


Overall I would class the proposed element as a potential starting point, but there is a lot of work left to complete the element.
If anyone has any ideas or suggestions then please feel free to post them here or message me over at GitHub.
