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.

Same. It's tied to the Latency module. If you disable "integration", the castbar won't disappear, but will almost always be fully red when you interact. If you disable Latency module completely, it will act normally.
I reported this bug almost 2 weeks ago. Hope it gets fixed soon.
Just updated the game and the GCD bar is now shrunken, about 25 pixels wide, and goes from right to left.
Hello,
I love your addon. I am currently having difficulty finding a way to disable the default cast bar for the target. As there is an option for disabling the Default UI cast bar for player I do not see that for the target. Any help would be great, thanks!
Hi,
Can you add a color option to track when you successfully interrupted a cast? Right now the color is the same for spell lock / interrupt or just normal canceled casts. :(
Hi there!
I've been using this addon since at least Wrath and I've loved it ever since. I've just now begun to notice that my player castbar has a slight fade out time (it slowly loses transparency after a cast has completed) instead of being instant. I've looked around and can not seem to find a setting to control this fade out time. I'd like the bar to disappear instantly after a cast has completed.
Thank you!
Is there a way to use a /script command to change b/w profiles?
Thanks in advance
Using interactive/quest items, shows 600-3k latency.
I experience a graphics overlapping/clipping problem when I do the following:
Target cast bar:
"Show Shield Icon": enabled
"Icon Position": Left
"Spell Name Position": Left
With the above setup, both the color bar and the spell name overlap with the shield & spell icon. It looks super ugly, b/c they are clipping on top of each other. I know how to shift the spell text to the right by setting the "Spell Name X Offset" about +10 units. However, the colored cast bar itself is still overlapping/clipping with the shield icon.
If I set "Icon Gap" to something greater than 1 unit, there is an ugly black gap between the icon and the bar when there ISN'T an uninterruptible spell with the shield.
Is there any way to shift the bar itself over to the right, so it doesn't cover up the right part of the shield/icon, without resorting to increasing Icon Gap?
Thanks!
is there a way to make it show latency like how it used to? I play with 300 ms latency and quartz used to be a godsend!
Reinstalling worked for me.
Same. Reinstalling seems an effective fix.
Love this addon. I was wondering if there's a way to show buffs for myself the same as showing buffs on the target. Thanks for all your work!
I'm not sure if I'm missing something obvious but is there a way to disable the blizzard cast bar for my target? I see the option for myself and the other panels but not for target.
I hope someone can help. I modified Height, Width, X and Y in WoD and I kept the addon as a backup. Now that I updated it, I got default width, x and y. Is there any chance I can find Height, Width, X and Y values in my old addon folder so I can put same values in new one (legion)? (It was focus nothing else, just focus bar widht, height, x and y). Thanks.
Why can't I reduce the width or should I say the length of the swing timer or the option is hidden somewhere it shouldn't be?
You can change the height but not the length, what's the logic there?
It should change when you change the width of your cast bar.
Is there a way to increase the maximum value for the x-axis for the casting bars?
I'm playing on 3 monitors and the value of 2560 ist not enough to put the cast bar where I want it to be.
If you unlock the cast bar you should be able to move it where ever you want. I also have three monitors have no issues.
Okay found it...On the top Level of the menu, you can uncheck the Box and move the bars with your mouse. Thanks for the advice!
