Customizing Spawn Header

[Elv22]

Hi all I have a very small issue I was hoping you could help me with, currently i have three different groups (party[raid 1-5 as well], raid 6-25, raid 26-40). I want to try to customize my spawn header so that if I am inside a raid that is not a 40 man, the raid 6-25 layout will always be shown.

Any help is appreciated, yes this is done with the oUF 1.5, which isn't complete yet.


Party [Raid 1-5] Spawnheader:

	local party = self:SpawnHeader("oUF_TukuiDPSParty", nil, "custom [@raid6,exists] hide;show", 
		'oUF-initialConfigFunction', [[
			local header = self:GetParent()
			self:SetWidth(header:GetAttribute('initial-width'))
			self:SetHeight(header:GetAttribute('initial-height'))
			RegisterUnitWatch(self)
		]],
		'initial-width', party_width,
		'initial-height', party_height,			
		"showParty", true, 
		"showPlayer", TukuiCF["raidframes"].showplayerinparty, 
		"showRaid", true, 
		"showSolo", false,
		"yOffset", TukuiDB.Scale(-8)
	)

Raid 6-25 Spawn Header:

	local raid = self:SpawnHeader("oUF_TukuiDPSR6R25", nil, "custom [@raid6,noexists][@raid26,exists] hide;show",
		'oUF-initialConfigFunction', [[
			local header = self:GetParent()
			self:SetWidth(header:GetAttribute('initial-width'))
			self:SetHeight(header:GetAttribute('initial-height'))
			RegisterUnitWatch(self)
		]],
		'initial-width', raidframe_width,
		'initial-height', raidframe_height,			
		"showRaid", true, 
		"showParty", true,
		"showSolo", false,
		"point", "BOTTOM",
		"showPlayer", TukuiCF["raidframes"].showplayerinparty,
		"groupFilter", "1,2,3,4,5",
		"groupingOrder", "1,2,3,4,5",
		"groupBy", "GROUP",	
		"yOffset", TukuiDB.Scale(6)
	)

and Raid 26-40 Layout

	local raid = self:SpawnHeader("oUF_TukuiDPSR26R40", nil, "custom [@raid26,exists] show;hide",
		'oUF-initialConfigFunction', [[
			local header = self:GetParent()
			self:SetWidth(header:GetAttribute('initial-width'))
			self:SetHeight(header:GetAttribute('initial-height'))
			RegisterUnitWatch(self)
		]],
		'initial-width', raid_width,
		'initial-height', raid_height,	
		"showSolo", false,
		"showRaid", true, 
		"showParty", true,
		"showPlayer", TukuiCF["raidframes"].showplayerinparty,
		"xoffset", TukuiDB.Scale(6),
		"groupFilter", "1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8",
		"groupingOrder", "1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8",
		"groupBy", "GROUP",	
		"yOffset", TukuiDB.Scale(-6)
	)

Also here is an example of the function I would run to check if the raid is proper:

function TukuiDB.Show25RaidLayout()
	local inInstance, instanceType = IsInInstance()
	local _, _, _, _, maxPlayers, _, _ = GetInstanceInfo()
	if inInstance and instanceType == "raid" and maxPlayers ~= 40 then
		return true
	else
		return false
	end 
end

What exactly is the issue?

I'm trying to find a way to use my function i posted at the bottom there to determine if the 6-25 layout should be used inside an instance or not. I was wondering if theres any way to run a custom script inside the spawn header for that or not

To my knowledge this can't be done in the manner you are asking for, the reason is simple, the SpawnHeader function is run when you login to the game, then the newly spawned UnitFrames get's populated with units ... so it would be impossible for SpawnHeader to create frames based on information that doesn't exist when it's run ...

That being said you can always create a custom function that based on current information will show / hide different already created UnitFrames ... like so:

function ShowHideUnitFrames()
    if no party hide all but player (& pet) frames
    if party show party frames
    if raid but less or equal to 5 players show party frames
    if raid with less than 11 and more than 5 players show raid10 frames
    if raid with less than 26 and more then 10 player show raid25 frames
    if raid and more then 10 player show raid40 frames
end

Yeah that isn't real code, but you should get the idea behind it.

It is possible to write your own custom SecureStateDriver, but it is not an easy thing to implement.

For my own raid frames I just show all raid units and move the pet frames on any raid/party roster update.

if you or anyone could post an example on how to do this it would be appreciated.

For the custom SecureStateDriver, or for moving the pet frames on raid update?

Figured it out, was kinda tricky but hey it works..

Party:

oUF:RegisterStyle('TukuiDPSParty', Shared)
oUF:Factory(function(self)
	oUF:SetActiveStyle("TukuiDPSParty")

	local party = self:SpawnHeader("oUF_TukuiDPSParty", nil, "custom [@raid6,exists] hide;show", 
		'oUF-initialConfigFunction', [[
			local header = self:GetParent()
			self:SetWidth(header:GetAttribute('initial-width'))
			self:SetHeight(header:GetAttribute('initial-height'))
			RegisterUnitWatch(self)
		]],
		'initial-width', party_width,
		'initial-height', party_height,			
		"showParty", true, 
		"showPlayer", TukuiCF["raidframes"].showplayerinparty, 
		"showRaid", true, 
		"showSolo", false,
		"yOffset", TukuiDB.Scale(-8)
	)
	party:SetPoint("BOTTOMLEFT", ChatLBackground, "TOPLEFT", TukuiDB.Scale(2), TukuiDB.Scale(40))
	
	local partyToggle = CreateFrame("Frame")
	partyToggle:RegisterEvent("PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD")
	partyToggle:RegisterEvent("ZONE_CHANGED_NEW_AREA")
	partyToggle:SetScript("OnEvent", function(self)
		local inInstance, instanceType = IsInInstance()
		local _, _, _, _, maxPlayers, _, _ = GetInstanceInfo()
		if inInstance and instanceType == "raid" and maxPlayers ~= 40 then
			oUF_TukuiDPSParty:SetAttribute("showRaid", false)
			oUF_TukuiDPSParty:SetAttribute("showParty", false)			
		else
			oUF_TukuiDPSParty:SetAttribute("showParty", true)
			oUF_TukuiDPSParty:SetAttribute("showRaid", true)
		end
	end)
end)

Raid 6-25

oUF:RegisterStyle('TukuiDPSR6R25', Shared)
oUF:Factory(function(self)
	oUF:SetActiveStyle("TukuiDPSR6R25")	
	local raid = self:SpawnHeader("oUF_TukuiDPSR6R25", nil, "custom [@raid6,noexists][@raid26,exists] hide;show",
		'oUF-initialConfigFunction', [[
			local header = self:GetParent()
			self:SetWidth(header:GetAttribute('initial-width'))
			self:SetHeight(header:GetAttribute('initial-height'))
			RegisterUnitWatch(self)
		]],
		'initial-width', raidframe_width,
		'initial-height', raidframe_height,			
		"showRaid", true, 
		"showParty", true,
		"showSolo", false,
		"point", "BOTTOM",
		"showPlayer", TukuiCF["raidframes"].showplayerinparty,
		"groupFilter", "1,2,3,4,5",
		"groupingOrder", "1,2,3,4,5",
		"groupBy", "GROUP",	
		"yOffset", TukuiDB.Scale(6)
	)	
	raid:SetPoint("BOTTOMLEFT", ChatLBackground, "TOPLEFT", TukuiDB.Scale(2), TukuiDB.Scale(40))
	
	local function ChangeVisibility(visibility)
		if(visibility) then
			local type, list = string.split(' ', visibility, 2)
			if(list and type == 'custom') then
				RegisterAttributeDriver(oUF_TukuiDPSR6R25, 'state-visibility', list)
			end
		end	
	end
	
	local raidToggle = CreateFrame("Frame")
	raidToggle:RegisterEvent("PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD")
	raidToggle:RegisterEvent("ZONE_CHANGED_NEW_AREA")
	raidToggle:SetScript("OnEvent", function(self)
		local inInstance, instanceType = IsInInstance()
		local _, _, _, _, maxPlayers, _, _ = GetInstanceInfo()
		if inInstance and instanceType == "raid" and maxPlayers ~= 40 then
			ChangeVisibility("custom [group:party,nogroup:raid][group:raid] show;hide")
		else
			ChangeVisibility("custom [@raid6,noexists][@raid26,exists] hide;show")
		end
	end)
end)

Raid 26-40

oUF:RegisterStyle('TukuiDPSR26R40', Shared)
oUF:Factory(function(self)
	oUF:SetActiveStyle("TukuiDPSR26R40")	
	local raid = self:SpawnHeader("oUF_TukuiDPSR26R40", nil, "custom [@raid26,exists] show;hide",
		'oUF-initialConfigFunction', [[
			local header = self:GetParent()
			self:SetWidth(header:GetAttribute('initial-width'))
			self:SetHeight(header:GetAttribute('initial-height'))
			RegisterUnitWatch(self)
		]],
		'initial-width', raid_width,
		'initial-height', raid_height,	
		"showSolo", false,
		"showRaid", true, 
		"showParty", true,
		"showPlayer", TukuiCF["raidframes"].showplayerinparty,
		"xoffset", TukuiDB.Scale(6),
		"groupFilter", "1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8",
		"groupingOrder", "1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8",
		"groupBy", "GROUP",	
		"yOffset", TukuiDB.Scale(-6)
	)	
	raid:SetPoint("BOTTOMLEFT", ChatLBackground, "TOPLEFT", TukuiDB.Scale(2), TukuiDB.Scale(40))
	
	local partyToggle = CreateFrame("Frame")
	partyToggle:RegisterEvent("PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD")
	partyToggle:RegisterEvent("ZONE_CHANGED_NEW_AREA")
	partyToggle:SetScript("OnEvent", function(self)
		local inInstance, instanceType = IsInInstance()
		local _, _, _, _, maxPlayers, _, _ = GetInstanceInfo()
		if inInstance and instanceType == "raid" and maxPlayers ~= 40 then
			oUF_TukuiDPSR26R40:SetAttribute("showRaid", false)
			oUF_TukuiDPSR26R40:SetAttribute("showParty", false)			
		else
			oUF_TukuiDPSR26R40:SetAttribute("showParty", true)
			oUF_TukuiDPSR26R40:SetAttribute("showRaid", true)
		end
	end)
end)

Now when I enter an instance, my Raid 6-25 layout will be shown, and the other two will be hidden.
