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.

Don't bother, there is no addon/program that can do this and if you go to the site, you may end up with a keylogger on your computer.

Having a lot of problems with the recent version debuff timer. It seems to keep losing debuffs and missing the combatlog event of applying a debuff. Eventually it detects it, however. Pitbull detects the debuffs, but quartz does not.

Would be nice if Quartz comes with "Flat" texture. Atm I have copied Flat.tga to Quartz's textures folder and added a line into Quartz.lua:

media:Register("statusbar", "Flat", "Interface\\Addons\\Quartz\\textures\\Flat")

(that will be line 48, after BantoBar)

For those of you using textures in bars and finding it very annoying to see it stretch just change the following files to look like this:

Quartz\CastBarTemplate.lua
Line 400: self.Bar:GetStatusBarTexture():SetHorizTile(true)

Quartz\modules\Swing.lua
Line 270: swingstatusbar:GetStatusBarTexture():SetHorizTile(true)

Quartz\modules\Mirror.lua
Line 532: bar:GetStatusBarTexture():SetHorizTile(true)

Quartz\modules\Buff.lua
Line 1138: bar:GetStatusBarTexture():SetHorizTile(true)

They should all have "false" and all i did was change it to "true". It worked for me on 3.3.5.

Does anyone know what happened with the textures of cast bars? It's when you cast an ability and the texture stretches along the screen instead of progressively revealing itself. I noticed it occurred in 3.0.3 so i downgraded to 3.0.2. Now with the new patch it occurs regardless. Is there any fix for this happening on all bars on screen? Thanks!

Could anyone tell me how to permanently show an (empty) castbar with the gcd border showing whilst I'm casting spells and moving around, this was possible in the previous versions. I've seen it being used on several youtube vids by unclicking the 'lock' tick box, but that feature isn't in that spot anymore.

Quartz isn't applying my texture of choice on Player cast bar. I checked the Saved Values file and it was there but after loading the game the bar resets to default. Any tips?

Is there any possiblity of showing buffs or debuffs on my target based on hostility? I only want to see buffs if the target is hostile. I only want to see debuffs if the target is friendly. I already show both in a compact form elsewhere, this is just for the NOTICE ME! effects.

Thank you

Hi there,
My own AddOn, SetTheory (http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/settheory.aspx) integrates with Quartz (and other AddOns/UI features) and allows you to create sets of AddOn configurations which can then be activated with a couple of clicks. For example, you can define a healing set that activates your talents, prompts you to switch in the correct glyphs, equips your healing gear, activates your healing buffs, changes your keybinds, configures your bars, activates the right indicators (e.g. Power Auras), loads different addons, change your unit frames and select profiles for any Ace-enabled addon. In short you can radically change your UI in a few seconds whenever you want to change play-styles.

There's much more you can do, find out more information at: http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/settheory.aspx .

Thanks, Dan.

I want the cast bar to count upwards: e.g. it is to say 2.0/2.0 when the cast is finished instead of 0.0/2.0.. can it easily be done? This addon is awesomeness.
