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.
i use a focus macro for polymorph and i use the focus bar under my castbar to monitor the duration of the polymorph, well the bar doesnt work now and sometimes it never clears even when the target dies and if there are other debuffs they are all stacked up and wont go away and block my actionbars the only way to get rid of it is to reload the ui
maybe you can fix this thanks
Can you have bars for pet's buff as well please?
This link is to v9 that just came out. I have ha no bugs so far.

When i apply a sting it shows the first couple of times but then something happens and the sting timer vanishes, pretty strange.
And i have gotten some odd error from now and them, just forgot to copy it, ill try to do it next time.
I think hooking into InFlight for the flight timer does not work anymore. When I take a flight Quartz shortly displays a bar that fully depletes within 2 sec or so. After that InFlight does correctly show its bar. But that's not what I want. I don't want to see the InFlight bar, but rather see Quartz display the remaining flight time.

Make sure you enable the "Mirror" bar. This is the replacement for the ingame one. There should be some check boxes also asking you if you want to hide the origonal bar as well.
When swimming there is an air bar in the default ui. I see no such bar with quartz and have drowned several time due to not being able to see it.
I love this addon still though.
Hello. I use eepanel2 to create the artwork for my UI and I would love to be able to attach some art to the "Mirror" bar, but for the life of me I cannot figure out what it's called ingame so I can attach the art to it. If anyone knows and could tell me that would be great. By the way I used /print GetMouseFocus():GetName() in game to get the window name but it just says nil. Thanks. Love the mod.
Everybody loved it in BC, but since the lua changes, there are so many issues and no update since months :((
