Skada Damage Meter
Skada is a modular damage meter with various viewing modes, segmented fights and customizable windows. It aims to be highly efficient with memory and CPU.
"Skada" is Swedish for "Damage".
Usage
When you first start using Skada, there will be a window created by default. This window can be extensively customized in Skada's configuration panel; click the little cog icon to access a menu, and then click Configure. Depending on your user interface, there may also be a minimap button allowing quick access to this menu.
Skada supports multiple windows. To create a new window, click Windows in the addon's configuration panel. There are three built-in types of windows - Bar, Inline, and Data text. Bar is the classic damage meter window, and is very customizable. Inline shows the meter in a horizontal line, which can be useful for integration in custom user interfaces. Data text shows just one item at a time, and can also be displayed by any LDB display addon, such as Titan Panel, ChocolateBar, or ElvUI.
In the normal Bar window, you can left click on specific items for more detailed information, and right click for less details. At the very "top" is the list of all saved fight segments. Some data modes have several detailed information views. In this case you choose alternate views by holding certain keys pressed while clicking. For example, in Damage mode, you can Shift-click a player to see what enemies the player caused damage to. Tooltips will display how to reach the different views.
You can also use window buttons for selecting fight segment and mode directly.
Scrolling in Skada is done with the mousewheel.

Posted Sep 20, 2016After latest updates, Skada quits working when I'm on my Druid healer. I user reverse growth and no title as only non default settings, and it simply won't record any data nor display them. Only solution is to delete profile and create a new one. This will work for a while, then break again.

Posted Sep 19, 2016Question: How do you remove a combatant from the date window? I haven't figure out how to yet.. In Recount it was easy just right-click their name and delete them from the list.. how do you do that in Skada?

Posted Sep 18, 2016Same thing here, not sure why it appears, but it does appear despite having "hide in solo" and "disable while hidden" turned on. Very annoying.
