    Greetings! I would like to express my thankfulness for creation and support that wonderful addon. I just can’t imagine my life without it. No joke. I really like that this addon constantly evolving and expanding it's functionality.

    In my turn I would like to add a few suggestions which I assume could make this addon even better.
    First of all I suggest to add an opportunity to configure scale for PETS and GUARDIAN'S. (http://puu.sh/qLRet/aa37dc28a6.jpg)
    For example to have an opportunity to set global scale for 80%, 40% for pets and 30% for guards. That function would be really useful in PVP, especially when you have to track enemy hunter pet's health but you want it to be smaller than other nameplates, same with guards. Custom nameplates helps only partially because it works basing on pet's name, and pet's have very different names.

    Finally, I think that would be nice to make absorb displaying on nameplates same as it’s done on default nameplates if it’s possible.

    Anyway, I fully satisfied by your addon and want to thank you once again for all work you have done.

    Thank you for your attention.

    Thanks for the feedback.

    Right now I'm not aware of any way to check if a unit in the world is pet or guardian.

    Absorbs and heals can be determined with

    local allIncomingHeal = UnitGetIncomingHeals(frame.unit) or 0;
    local totalAbsorb = UnitGetTotalAbsorbs(frame.unit) or 0;
    

    but I'm not sure if TidyPlates has any means to display this. I might be able to add a frame with texture over the healthbar though.
