Quartz
Quartz is a modular approach to a casting bar addon. An overview of (hopefully most of) the modules:
*Player
The core of Quartz is lightweight implementation of a standard casting bar, with configurable size, text and icon positioning, and colors.
*Target/Focus
Implementation of target and focus casting bars in similar fashion to the player cast bar.
*Buffs
Display of target and focus buffs and debuffs as duration bars.
*Flight
Hooks into FlightMap or InFlight to display the current flight progress on your casting bar.
*Global Cooldown
Displays a tiny spark-bar to show your Global Cooldown near the cast bar. Helpful for those who'd rather not squint at their action bars to see when they can cast again.
*Interrupt
Changes the color and text of your casting bar to help show that your cast has been interrupted (and show who interrupted it).
*Latency
Displays the amount of time spent between cast send and start events, in the form of a bar at the end of your casting bar, with optional text that displays the actual duration of the lag. This helps in canceling casts when they will not actually be interrupted, especially for users with consistently high pings.
*Mirror
Shows the 'basic' timers such as breath and feign death, as well as some 'odd' ones such as party invite time, resurrect timeout, and arena game start, and a framework for injecting custom timers into the bars.
*Range
Recolors the casting bar when your cast target moves out of range mid-cast.
*Swing
Displays a swing timer for your melee weapon as well as hunter autoshot.
*Timer
Allows for creating custom timers displayed on the mirror bars.
*Tradeskill Merge
Merges multiple casts of the same tradeskill item into one big cast bar.
Use /quartz to bring up the configuration menu.
is non uninterruptible shield bugged? Showing for all casts atm
Lots of comments about the latency indicator.
I haven't done my own testing yet but "Hide lag indicator when no lag could be measured" from the Changes tab seems to be relevant.
Are any of you actually lagging or not?
lag = latency.
there is no such thing like "no latency" except when you play on the same physical machine where the wow-server is running ^^
Yeah, of course. but like I quoted from the author "when no lag could be measured".
I assumed that meant 'any noticeable difference' - something like >70ms.
playing with 250ms, not seeing the indicator on the castbar;\
just returned to the game, not sure if i have the settings wrong or if the latency simply isn't showing;\
Flight module isn't working, buff module isn't working and for some reason, my breath bar when I'm underwater is now really tiny, somewhere off to the side and I can't seem to find a way to move it or change its appearance.
Elspeth, i have a same problem. Latency module doesn't work.
is the latency portion working for u guys?
the latency module of quartz isn't working. pls fix i beg u for legion patch 7.0.3
Is there any way to choose which curses/buffs etc addon will track? Can you add an option like that?
Thank you.
Player buffs please T_T
The buff feature of this mod is currently broken
How to reverse bar for channeling spells?
A bit late to the party but same here, I really want to see the player buffs/debuffs. Only way I found is to put the focus on myself and use the focus buffs/debuffs but it doesn't show all of them. I want to see buffs including mounts, presences and what not but I can't find the proper settings for this, if it exists at all. Hope this will get fixed.
*Buffs
Display of target and focus buffs and debuffs as duration bars using the new API introduced in patch 2.1.
Can It display just the buff/debuff icons? I am looking for something that can replace Raven as it seems it has stopped updating
how does the positioning work for this addon, i have a resource weakaura bar located at -150 and want my cast bar below it, i figured with the screen tie at bottom left and the icon tie to bottom left it would be ((screen length/2)-(bar with/2);(screen height/2)-150-WA height-bar height) but when i set it to that it's halfway into my aura and off center compared to it.
also tryed to find the file with the bar positioning so i could change it to center and center but couldent find that either.
could be great if you could add it so the user can change the tie's for the bars.
Sure its been asked before any chance you will add outline option ?
My mirror bar is locked on to my player bar. I don't remember ever having this problem before. What happened?
EDIT: Well I figured it out but holy hell is this mod cumbersome and obtuse to use now. Why are there 10 different ways that bars are locked and why can't I move the main options screen so I can get at the bars under it?
Clean this shit up.
I honestly can't stand what they did to this mod over the years. All the setup options are hidden to move the bars, come prelocked, then when you do click unlock, oh no, you have to find the unlock option hidden in the buff section to unlock that as well. Can't move the default wow interface window for addons, so you're stuck clicking ok once you unlock, which hides the menu completley. Not only that, one of the bar setups you can't even move, you have to jimmy with the X/Y settings while having an addon panel overlaid on your screen. I like what it does, but getting it just right, is not just annoying, but painful.
