Kg panels Help!?

[pauen]

How can i configure it so that when i target something or someone, a kgpanel with show up?

You can parent the panel to your target frame then position it where you wish.

Find the name of the Target Frame in your UF's, and in kgPanels, in the "Parent" entry, type in the name of the Target Frame (capitalization is important - WoW considers StUF_Target_Frame different from stuf_target_frame).

What those two said, but to make it easier for you, here's how to find the name of any frame:

Go into your Key Bindings and scroll down until you find the 'Frame Finder' underneath 'KgPanels'. Bind that to a key, or a combination of keys. Then hover your mouse over the frame you want to find the name of and press the key/s. The name of that frame will then appear in your chat box. There is also a macro you can use but I can't find it - you should be fine using KgPanels' Frame Finder, though.

You can also use /framestack to find the name of a frame.

Or, even shorter, /fstack

Dude! Thanks for that. I'm a terribly slow typist, and that will DEFINITELY help.

"/fstack" gives you much more information than just the frame name. Try it, you'll see.

Although, even with that command I can't get a name for a Dominos bar.

[Taryble]

Dominos doesn't name the bars - just the buttons.

So, either you can't parent a kgPanel to Dominos, or you parent it to a button and re-size it after? Just trying to get a little information, here. Not a "wizard" with kgPanels.

I didn't know this existed! Thank you for the tip, I'm sure that will come in handy.

As for anchoring to Dominos bars, you will have to just anchor it to a button. Barely any difference, to be honest. You could anchor it to the middle-most button to make things easier.

Okie-dokie. Thanks.

[Taryble]

When I had panels parented to my Dominos setup, I was anchoring top-left to top-left on the first button in each bar. This gave me a corner anchor for whatever rectangular shape my bars were in.

Then I'd use either direct pixel sizes, or use percentages to modify the size of the kgPanel - a "bar" 2 buttons high by 6 buttons wide would be, say, 205% height and 605% wide (and then I'd play with the exact percentages to place the borders properly ).

[jeffy162]

Got it. Thanks. I probably would have figured it out once I started working on it, but this helps enormously.
