oUF Phanx - debuffs on target of target

[Maxen]

Hey there,

I am trying to add debuff on the target of target frame in oUF Phanx but it does not work so far, not sure why. Here's the code I added in the aura section:

	elseif unit == "targettarget" then 
		local GAP = 6

		local MAX_ICONS = floor((FRAME_WIDTH + GAP) / (FRAME_HEIGHT + GAP))
		local NUM_BUFFS = 2
		local NUM_DEBUFFS = MAX_ICONS - 2
		local ROW_HEIGHT = (FRAME_HEIGHT * 2) + (GAP * 2)

		self.Debuffs = CreateFrame("Frame", nil, self)
		self.Debuffs:SetHeight(ROW_HEIGHT)
		self.Debuffs.parent = self

		self.Debuffs["growth-y"] = "UP"
		self.Debuffs["showType"] = true
		self.Debuffs["size"] = FRAME_HEIGHT
		self.Debuffs["spacing-x"] = GAP
		self.Debuffs["spacing-y"] = GAP * 2

		self.Debuffs.CustomFilter   = ns.CustomAuraFilters.target
		self.Debuffs.PostCreateIcon = ns.Auras_PostCreateIcon
		self.Debuffs.PostUpdateIcon = ns.Auras_PostUpdateIcon
		self.Debuffs.PostUpdate     = ns.Auras_PostUpdate 
	end

Any ideas? Thanks.

Do you have an error display running? If not, go get one. If there is an error, it probably tells you exactly what and where the problem is; if you need help deciphering it, post the error.

Have you tried adding print statements to see what's happening in realtime? I'd suggest adding one in Auras_PostUpdate (Functions.lua, line 509) as a first step.

Both of those are basic troubleshooting steps you should always try first.

Offhand I'd guess your problem is that your debuffs container frame simply isn't visible, because you don't give it a position (using SetPoint) or a width (using either SetHeight for an explicit width, or multiple SetPoint calls for an implicit width). If you want the debuffs to be in a fixed position, you should copy from the "party" section instead of the "target" section, and just change which CustomFilter it uses. If you want the debuffs to be moved or otherwise reconfigured when you switch specs, you need to copy the entire "target" section, including the "UpdateAurasForRole" function (remove the part of it that concerns buffs) and the "RegisterForRoleChange" method call.

There was no errors at all but you were spot on for the missing SetPoint!

I may consider using UpdateAurasForRole since this is only needed when tanking...

Again, thanks!
