Very very nice! I always was seeking such an addon!
Could you add a cooldown tracker for the disarm ability of hunters? I mean Chimera Shot + Scorpid Sting. The effect can only occur every 1 minute, but you can't see when that minute is over.
Maybe a Cooldownbutton can be triggered by the disarmed-debuff on the enemy target. That would be awesome! :)

it would be nice if you could select sounds to play when a specific cooldown is complete.

Greetings,

Great work - definitely prefer this to the bars that are so common. Two issues with a Paladin I'm encountering:

1. Judgement timers are about 1 second off. The timer shown reaches 0, however there is still a 1 second tick left on the cooldown. Note I do have Improved Judgements, and the judgement tooltip shows an 8 second cooldown while your timer countdown starts at 7 seconds.

2. Related to the above, if I cast anything in that last 1 second tick while the CDB timer shows 0, the CDB icon refreshes and shows the GCD tick.

Thanks!

As I've noticed this is the case with all cooldowns, I assume this is intended behavior. Or, rather, a side effect of using whole seconds for the countdown since when 0 is displayed it is actually counting down from .9 until 0, when 7 is displayed it's counting down from 6.9 until 6, etc.

Thanks again.

Love the mod. I'd quite like the mod to display the ready status of spells. At the moment spells disappear once the cooldown is up and I need to remember which ones are available (which is hard when you've got a memory like mine!). Any chance we can have an option to display ready spells or keep spells visible once they have finished cooldown?

Cheers. :)

I'm not native speaker for english, so I need your kindness.
First, Thank you and your nice addon. but I have a small problem. When a cooldown for one skill finishes, All cooldown buttons are always re-arranged. It cause cooldownbuttons-missing-for-sight(or confusing). So this 're-arrange' function must be option(can be chosen by user).
What do you think about my suggestion? Thanks.

Unfortunately I had to turn it off...It might of been because of a download conflict (started after I downloaded MBB) but it had one button...and i tried to move it...and then had 2....then 3....and so forth. They kept multiplying as I tried to move them, until there was like 10, and then it stopped. And i couldn't delete them, or call up the menu, etc. I really like this program too, a lot, because i hate those dang bars, like you do...but I also need MBB because I have too many buttons on my minimap.

Any thoughts? :(

hm i tested with mbb, no issues.
but it would be cool to know what button duplicated :O
the move buttons for a bar or the mbb minimap button?

and the move buttons after furst start? if yes, ther are 3 enabled per default (items, spells, expiring) you have to hide them in /cdb config after placed where you want them =)

No, I wasn't using the -nolib release. I tested lots of releases (including -nolib), as well as CooldownButtons-2.1.13.zip. All of them had the same problem.

hi neonman3, are you using the no-lib release? :P i think yes, so i'll add "ButtonFacade" to Optional Deps list for next update.
Thanks for the info :)

I can't get CooldownButtons to use the ButtonFacade buttons. Buffalo and bartender is working just fine with ButtonFacade, but for some reason CooldownButtons isn't. Any ideas on what could be wrong? (Using the latest version of both addons).
Sadly I don't have any real info on the problem, there isn't any errors or anything being generated.
Edit: This also happens if I disable all other addons but buttonfacade and cooldownbuttons on a new character. local LBF = LibStub("LibButtonFacade", true) is returning nil.
Edit2: Ok, problem solved. Can't believe I didn't check this sooner. I just added "ButtonFacade" to the "## OptionalDeps:" list in CooldownButtons.toc and now it's working.

As spinhalf mentioned Arcane Barrage is listed but not showing. Also, mana shield is missing. Fixing these would make it perfect! :)

Recommended.
This is one of the best addons available for any class. I use it with every char I play and all of my friends also use it.

The only thing I've noticed is Penance is not available as a saved button for a disc priest even if he has it talented. Can you please take a look.

Thanks for this incredibly useful addon.

Arcane Barrage doesn't show for some reason. It's only a 3s cooldown, but I'd like to see a button for it.

Great addon btw. Thank you.

Not sure if anyone else is having trouble getting this to indicate the cool down on Divine Shield (it is currently not tracking this cool down at all for me). Was working before the patch.
