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.

Is there any way of moving it as a whole? I mean I don't want to move a piece at a time since that will take ages, I want to move it all at once... How can I do that?

What am I missing? I get the clearing the lock button and dragging cast bars where they need to be. But what about the buff bars? Is this addon suppose to work like CT_Buff? All I am getting is Blizzard's little buff icons.

Please give me some direction.

Hi there. Love the addon but have a quick question. I now have some spell haste which as of 2.4.0 also influences spellcasting global cooldown. My question is, does the global cool down bar take into account spell haste?

Hello!
Could anyone explain me how to drag the castbars of quartz? In my case they are hidden under my actionbars and I do not have a clue how to move them. Thanks a lot for your help!

For some reason my quartz will not show Mind flay being cast by my target, but it will show everything else including other channeled spells like arcane missiles. any thoughts?

Having an issue where it will pop up a swing timer at random intervals for absolutely no reason. It won't even be a relevant swing timer. For example, my rogue which uses 1.8 and 1.4 speed weapons will randomly get 2.2 second swing timers to count down a bunch of times.

This is on r8.

About the BUFFS bars (i.e. deadly poison, rupture on target or first aid on myself, etc). I cant seem to see these bars when i’m in a raid or party, unless i’m the leader. And the leader part only works when i’m the original leader - when someone gives me lead, the bars wont work either.
Is there a fancy option somewhere for this that i’m missing?

So far I havn't had any problems with Quartz.. minus the insignificant detail that the flight timer feature doesn't seem to be working. Over all great work, I absolutely love it.

Still have the problem that the castbar disappears when I use Macros for using trinkets and casting a spell after it.

/use trinket 1
/use trinket 2
/cast Fireball

When I click the button once, cast bar shows, when I press it a second time within the casttime (hammering the button), the castbar disappears!

when I am done casting, the last spell I used still shows up until I cast something else. So even when not casting anything, I still have the bar up. Can you get rid of this?

I'm getting the following error when I set focus. Note: though it says FishingBuddyFu it also reports this with GroupFu and MacaroonFu. Looks like it's an ace library conflict. Not sure if it's Quartz or something else.

Thought to add that the Focus target mirror timers are still just solid bars with no timers or timer animations.

hi not sure if you are aware but the warrior move slam doesn't reset your swing timer anymore but the version of quartz i've got r7 (can't dl r8 yet) still resets the swing timer. This makes the swing timer go out of sink and its pretty much useless

The Flight function doesn't seem to be working with InFlight either.
