Quartz

Table of Contents

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.

Hey, great addon :)

Just a quick question, does this addon support duel spec like Bartender or Shadowed Unit Frames Do when you switch specs it changes location to where you've set it.

I just ask because when I switch between DPS and Healer my UI layout is different was wondering if this addon supports duel spec configuration.

Swing timer is totally broken for me DK, after a while it just stops working and disappears and no way to get it back unless I completely reset the addon. But even so after a while the proces repeats rendering this addon useless for the swing timer component, which is the only reason I still have Quartz installed.

Hope you find the time to address this issue :'(

Hi. I have a problem with my player cast bar. Every time I cast something instead of showing the full thing it always only shows up a really small grey/dark bar right beneath it. Only the player cast bar does this, so I assumed it would be some misconfig on the "player" settings. Since I couldn't find what was wrong, I unnistaled the addon deleting all configs with it, and reinstalled it, and yet the problems remains.

PS: Before I moved the bar from it's original place, it was working fine, now no matter where I put it it's all the same

Quartz seems to do what I am looking for but the configuration is a bit confusing. For example, I would like to move and resize the bars for Black Arrow, Explosive Shot, etc., but the bars/spells are not listed by name and unlocking the bars does not allow me to move them when the spell bars are visable. Also, is there a way to reset everything back to the default sizes and positions (to undo everything I've messed up)?

Is there a way to copy a default profile into a character profile? I made initial settings changes under the default profile and I want to replicate it for my other characters. I don't see an option to import those settings over into a character profile. Can you help with this please?

Is there any way to change the background texture? I want to use the same texture for the background that I use for the castbar (Armory).

I can't use this addon because the effin menu doesn't move. Until you fix it, I have no use for this. Thanks!

Fixed Duration!!
It doesn't work! :(
I love this addon, but this feature doesn't work. The buff bar will still disappear soon as buff times out.

Unable to move Quartz, it's stuck in the default position and on top of my Spartan UI. How do I move it and reposition it?

Is there any way to drag the mirror bars, etc like you can with the cast bars? I'm having alot of trouble tryingto get them where I want and some I can't seem to move at all and they are overlapping the cast bars. Also which part of Quartz has the bars with things like Maelstrom and Flame Shock, etc?

The Player Bar does not have Channeling Ticks right from Enhanced Mind Flay.
Any chance we can get this in?

Edit: Just managed to sort it myself. Just changed the # of ticks from 3 to 4 in the Playermodule .lua file.
