Elkano's BuffBars
EBB provides groups of statusbar style indicators to show (de)buffs currently affecting your char or some other units (currently focus, pet and target). For the player, it can also show indicators for temporary enchants place on it's weapons.
Due to changes Blizzard made with WoW 4.x it's no longer possible to cancel buffs without the use of secure frames. Currently EBB limits canceling of buffs to out-of-fight since using SecureAuraHeader would have required a major code restructuring. This will be coming in a later version.
Version 2.x is a total recode based on the Ace2 framework which became necessary in order to support some of the longtime wanted and suggested features. It's now possible to show different groups of bars which can be configured in many ways. Each group can be assigned an individual look and filter settings. EBB can be configured via a dropdown menu which is accessible via chat (/ebb config), FuBar plugin or (for the group settings) by right clicking the groups anchor. After setting up a group, its anchor can be hidden by alt-left clicking a bar or the anchor itself in order to lock the group in place.
In order to get additional bar textures and fonts for EBB simply install SharedMedia which is available for download under http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/sharedmedia.aspx

Posted Jul 6, 2006[Elkano] I run at 14 most of the time (b/c during raids you need to watch your buffs/debuffs) but with leveling/grouping chars I use 8-10 b/c all I really need to know is that something's there and don't need to be too buggered about what it really is most of the time so clear/easy reading isn't necessary and I can mouse-over when I need.
>0 is an easy check though :D
And tons of thanks for the time disable.

Posted Jul 6, 2006The hacked Gypsybuff frame wasn't done by me. But I liked it's look so I made these look almost the same :) but the code itself is a total rewrite.
with 1.2 the time display can be disabled and the min height is now 15. (maybe I should simply set it to > 0? ;) )

Posted Jun 30, 2006Been enjoying this thing from back when it was just a gypsy hack but one thing, now that it's under support thats in a place I can find: Could you add the option to remove the time?
And is there any reason for the height restraint being a min of 20? (I run the version I have at 14 with no perceptable issues/overlaps/etc)

Posted Jun 30, 2006are you running any mds like MoveAnything or those of it's kind that allow you to move and hide frames? That could be the reason.

Posted Jun 30, 2006Very nice.
I'm having trouble getting rid of the old buff icons. Can anyone clue me in on how to get rid of the old buff icons? Currently, both Elkano's BuffBar and the original BuffBars are on my screen.
