    What version of Grid2 and game type (classic or retail) are you using ? 

     

    What game client version (windows or mac) and language are you using ?

     

    What steps will reproduce the problem?

      
    Did you try having Grid2 as the only enabled addon and everything else disabled?

      

    Was it working in a previous version? If yes, which was the last good one?

      

    Do you have an error log of what happened? If you don't see any errors, make sure that error reporting is enabled (`/console scriptErrors 1`) or install [BugSack](https://mods.curse.com/addons/wow/BugSack).

      

    Please provide any additional information below.

     

    Question:\

    1- If I'm in combat and join a raid, only my own group will show up in the grid2 until I leave the combat then the whole raid shows, I wonder what is causing this and how can I make it so that my grid2 shows up as raid if i'm at raid and doesn't care for combat.

    2- For offliners, I wonder if its possible to make the text says offline in red as it is right now but also make the health goes dark/blank, instead of keeping their own health, while their name stays class colored.

     

    Request: I'd like to add  an indicator thats not an icon or suqare or a text, I'm thinkin something like a right angle triangle, is this possible? I'd like to add something like this to bottom right of grid with alpha 0.5 and make it indicate a dispellable debuff, with the dispel color, that would be really cool, better than a square in my opinion to make it large with debuff color right angle triangle, its just an idea, for new indicator can be used in many cases, some ppl dont want icon or square or text, but thanks anyway.

    Sry just wanted to add one more question about "Direction feature" is there anyway to change the radius of each direction arrow, especially since it's for the out-world right now and not in dungeon or instances, I'd like to make yellow to be from 35 to 60 yards, orange from 60 to 120 yards, red is 120+

    - It's a game restriction the layout cannot be changed in combat. You must use the same layout in group/solo/raid, go to Layouts/Editor and check the "Display all groups" option too.

    -Uncheck the "Show dead as having full health" option in the health-current status.

    -Icon indicator already supports squares (and square indicators supports rectangles and lines too), so im considering to add more simple shapes like triangles or circles.

    Thanks, I already unchecked show dead as full health and they show up as blank which is good, but I was speaking of offliners too, I wish they also show as blank of someone goes offline. 

     

    Also adding shapes like triangle would be a nice move, also nice if it can blink or spark.

     

    Last thing, can I edit the distances in direction? thanks.

    -Set a black/dark color to the offline status, and link this status to the health-color indicator.

    -Assign a static red color to the text-color indicator instead of the death status (Goto Statuses/Colors to create a red color)

    Beautiful!

    Ive got a slight problem with it, I created a color: offline <--- which is what I called it, and in that same text I also got "health-defecit" color,  even though the static offline color is under the health-defecit in priority, the offline is taking the color of health-defecit which is green.

     

    and if I up the color: offline in priority, then the health-defecit takes the color: offline, instead.

     

    I hope I'm explaining it clear, but I duno how to fix that, thanks.

    Nevermind I think its fixed somehow :D

    Could you explain how ? I think this specific setup cannot be configured in the exact way you asked.
