Quote from: Azunai;325387Something I did since Cata is move my minimap to the midcentre. I use Sexymap and took a less obstructive design, the burning sun one. Around it (above and to the sides) are my action bars. Further up my HP on the left and Target's on the right. Still thinking of a place to put Grid reliably, it's currently to the left, above my chat pane. Bottom right is for meters.

Maybe someone here has a suggestion. I'm looking for a cast bar addon that let's me do the following:

A) I want to keep the Blizzard cast bar for my own spells. I like its position and I'm used to its looks.
B) I want target's casts to display above their HP bar.

Currently I can do either A or B with Pitbull, but not both. If I do B, it also puts my own cast bar above my own hp bars, as you cannot set different bar layouts for individual units in Pitbull.
Try Quartz for the cast bar tweaking.

Try AzCastBar garrit, very modular addon that probably will do what you want

Edit: bah TL beat me to it. Quartz is nice aswell yeh

You can use ecasting bar too, tho i like configuring it with target's casting bar showing a HUGE casting bar in the middle of the upper screen, just to avoid missing it :D

Did a tidy up on my shadow priest UI today and dumped a bunch of stuff and slimmed the rest of it down again.  It now looks like this:

[ATTACH=CONFIG]743[/ATTACH]

Small gap to right of player is for ToT
3 small yellow timers are proc monitors for Lightweave, Power Torrent & Volcanic card (to refresh VT/DP when 2 or more up at same time)
Target cast bar is between Target buffs and the Forte Xcorcist Cooldown Timer.
Skada (lower right) shows Threat when in combat and reverts to damage/whatever when ooc.
Others bars/buttons hide when in combat or only show when mouseover.

Enter my UI :-) Minimalistic, as I said. (I uploaded it to my Gallery here on the forums, how do I make it a thumbnail like yours TL? ;_; )

Raiding Addons I use:

Bartender
Pitbull
Grid
Sexymap
DXE
Skada
Power Aura's Classic
Elkano's Buff Bars
TidyPlates


Target Frame is of course opposite the Player one, and next to that is a small ToT frame.
DXE timers appear above my chatpane on the left, when they become urgent (timer's about to run out) they move to the middle above the Player - Target frames
Skada grows downward from where it says 'DPS'
Debuffs appear under my healthplate as well as on the right, though I don't look there

The biggest space saver here is Power Aura's. Almost all my timer monitoring is done through that. It tells me stuff like: Colossus Smash is active on target. Rend is 1 second away from fading from target. Battle Shout is ready to use, but also when it's worn off. Some encounter debuffs I put in as an aura as well, for visual cues.

So yea... clean and a lot of screen real estate saved there.
or Garrit, or Torgen. Also, Livestream.

Thought i'd post mine up



The buttonbars at mid-left and mid-right fade out and in on demand which is quite nice, along the bottom left to right are: Chat, Omen, Bartender, Vuhdo(for raid frames) and Recount



as shown without side frames showing

Buttons are set out as they are along bottom as I use a logitech G13 http://www.logitech.com/assets/17680/17680.png
(Best money i've ever spent on a single pieve of hardware imo)

I quite like the starcraft theme of it

I'm looking for an addon. The one with timerbars of how long your DOT/HOT remains on your target.
