    French guy here, sry for approximative English : |

    First, congratulation for this amazing addon, I've been trying to replace my beloved and perfect sRaidFrames since it got out of date in 2014, and tested and spent dozen of ours to try pitbull, Shadowed, Zperl, Vuhdo, Gird, Healbot, elvUi ... Pitbull is the only one that has a Raid/Group Ui which has all / or almost all the tools needed to make a perfect ui to me. Thank you for that and for all your work !

    What is the enhancement in mind? How should it look and feel?
    The ability for a selected aura (or aura group) to modify the border and / or background color (with alpha) of a unit frame.
    You could also set a priority for those border and background dynamic modifications.
    Example :
    priority 1- red border if unit has dispelable debuff
    IF NO DISPELABLE DEBUFF > priority 2- blue if unit is shielded
    IF NOTHING ON TARGET > priority 3 - white if unit has no buff/debuff.

    At the moment the only way to make an aura more visible other than just it's icon is to to use the "Aura highlight module", which is cool but not very tweakable/complete.
    That leads me to enhancement 2, but I'll fill another ticket.

    Please provide any additional information below.

    One good way to do this for me would be to add a tab in "Layout editor > Aura" that would be called "Frame modification".
    In this tab, you could choose one aura filter via a rollover menu (the same that you have in filter tab).
    Below this rollover, one "Affect Border" tickbox, with a color (and alpha), another "Affect Background" tickbox next to it (with alpha too)
    And below those two tickbox and colorpicker, one drag cursor from 0 to 30 to select the priority of this Aura modification.

    Each time you choose one frame modification, another empty one appears below it, with empty settings if you want to add another frame modification.

    Thanks in advance for your feedback !
