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.

It's strange that the latest version is no longer released at Curse or WowInterface.
There is a corrupted file called Quartzbackup in my addon file i cant delete. Does anyone know how to get rid of it?
I'd just like my own player castbar in Quartz to flash up on the screen when I use any instant-cast spell, and I want it to show the spell name. (Perhaps a timer slider option would be good, to have it show for any length of time between 0.1 - 1.5 seconds, or something like that.)
Every once in awhile, I'll fat-finger a key or something, and I'll trigger my GCD. I have the GCD bar showing in the mod, and it helps me to see why when I'm mashing my spell button nothing's happening for 1.x seconds, but it would be more noticeable and informative a lot of those times for the entire bar to just flash up and show you the instant-cast spell that you hit to trigger the GCD in the first place. (Obviously, if it's not an instant-cast spell, you do see the bar for the duration of whatever it was you did cast.)
anyone that can tell be how the fuck to move these things that appears as annoying bars, since they are at the most stupid locations on my screen..
would be lovely with some guiding.
thank you ;)
i don't really want to have to install another mod that does just that.
Kinda like DoTimer.
