I'll give it a try. I didn't realize you could have more than one layout active/visible at the same time. Thanks.

cjscully, Use the layout system. By creating another layout, you can change everything, be it portrait, unit assignment or any other option you want. After you've created the layout, go to the unit panel and assign that layout to the corresponding unit. For MTs, assign the layout to raid and filter it by maintanks. You create a new layer by typing in it's name at the top of the layout editor panel.

Great job so far. I see a lot of improvements over Pitbull 3. Are portraits now an all or nothing proposition. In Pitbull 3, I could keep them on for the player frames and turn them off for raid frames. I've tried to do that in Pitbull 4 but it doesn't seem to work. No matter which unit or group I have selected when I turn portraits on or off it affects all unit frames. Also, is there a way to display the usual raid frames and the MT frames at the same time? I haven't found a way to do that either. This function was also in Pitbull 3 and was one I used all the time.

Dagert, you can copy the Pitbull4.lua from the SavedVariables directory, to the other computer.

The SavedVariables are located at World of Warcraft\WTF\<ACCOUNT>\.

Where can I find a config file for transfer of settings to another computer? Is there such a thing?

Something else I confused about - The ability to make my background/health bar or border glow on "Aggro" seems only to take aggro as "getting hit by something"

So If a mob disengages from me and heads for my healer I've no way of knowing this until the healer starts crying.

Intended or fixable? I know X-perl has the feature where aggro (being targetted by a mob) makes the unitframe of that character glow. Am hoping for something similar with Pitbull as I much much prefer it.

That's already how the aggro module works. XPerl and PB4 both use LibBanzai to tell us who has aggro. So there should be no difference between what they show. Keep in mind that there are limitations of the game itself. If nobody has the mob targeted it's not going to show anyone as having aggro from it. There's no way around that limitation.

What problems are you having? What exactly are you trying to do with the profiles. It's hard to help you with the limited information you've given.

so just wondering, how does this differ from Pitbull Unit Frames 3.0?

There's a whole section above that explains how it differs.

For raid frames, we have a wait list in groups 6,7 and sometimes 8, so I have to have the 10/25/40 mans checked (Dunno if it matters, but I am saying it in case it does)

Sort method: By group Sort Direction: Ascending Growth direction: Rows Down, Columns right 10/25/40 checked Filter type: By raid group I have groups 6,7,8 unchecked

Now fill the raid and move someone from Group 2 to either Group 6 or have someone from Group 3 leave the raid.

This is where the problem starts....if I am in G4 and on the bottom of the 5, then we all shift up one and basically "Fill in the spots" which means on the screen 4/5 of G4 are in 4th column and one G4 is in the 3rd column and one from G5 is in the 4th column

How can I make it so party groups are recognized and maintained inviolate in raid frames.

First off - Lovely, I love it - looks so cool and just the feel I'm after.

Secondly, and of course, there is 1 thing that doesn't work for me - when putting text into boxes there seems to be no option for just 'Level of X'

That is to say, under the NAME category I believe there is an option that displays my character as :

"44 Warrior Orc"

No other option seems to give me what I'm looking for which is either:

"44" or "44 Warrior"

There is an option that gives "44 Orc" Which isn't terribly useful for my ideal set-up but will work for now.

I'm likely being a dumbass, other than this it really is a very good looking piece o' shizzle!

I'm trying to find out how to display missing hp on my health bar. I used to edit the code provided in pitbull 3, but I'm not sure of the command in the new pitbull 4. Is there somewhere I can find this info?

Basically I want the format to be HP/Missing HP (Percent HP)

Edit: Nvm, I figured it out. Here's the code if anyone wants it:

local s = Status(unit) if s then return s end local cur, max = HP(unit), MaxHP(unit) local miss = max - cur return "%s/%s (%s%%)",Short(cur,true),Short(miss,true),Percent(cur,max)

squeedps, there's a ticket open on the pet xp bar. I haven't had a chance to look at it since I don't really play a hunter. It has some issues apparently.

I just want to say this project is awesome. I've been having fun with pitbull testing it out on some different toons that i have.

one thing i did come across and i'm not sure if it's been mentioned or not yet, but when I am on my hunter, I've got my pet's xp bar showing for the profile. When my pet lvls up, the bar disappears for seemingly no reason. When I lvl up, the bar comes back. I have the pet frame on a different profile than the player frame because I use a different mod to show my player xp bar (Dominos). I was using the version posted on curse.com and not here. I just downloaded the latest file to give it a go. If it was fixed since the curse.com posting this latest one, i appologize. If not, then maybe I can steer you in the direction of another minor bug.

Cheers! My cast bar is back. :)

I'm receiving the PitBull4_Aura: Unkown spell ID: 20554 on the PTR, when my character has the Essence of Wintergrasp buff.

Turning off the castbar module or the castbar on the player frame doesn't alter the options to hide the blizzard UI elements. You can control this with the options for the HideBlizzard module. Other CastBar addons would be under their own settings, we have no control over them.

Love this addon. Alot of effort has been put into it already but if you ever have the time what would be really kool is if we can choose the range for the range fader and how much to fade it by!

I think it's at 30 yards atm? but my spells are a 36 yrd range ie it fades out before it's actually out of range :( anyhow great addon will use no matter what.

You can't just set arbitrary ranges to check because the game doesn't provide us a way to do this. Generally, the game provides us ways to check if you can do certain things. Such as trading, casting a given spell and so forth.

The range check should be based upon the proper spells for your class. So it really should be 36 yards. What class are you?

You can already change how much it fades under the layout settings for Faders.
