Yata - Yet Another Totem Addon

Yata is the answer to all your totem (and weapon imbue) needs

What is Yata?

Yata is a hugely flexible totem bar addon, enabling your shaman to organise their totems, cast them (individually, through the multicast spells or by /castsequence macro) and track cooldowns and timers.

Yata was originally created by Tornhoof and was one of the pioneers of totem bar support during The Burning Crusade. It has been brought up to date in Wrath of the Lich King by kaytikat.

Features

Bars

Horizontal or vertical layout (with the ability to choose which side the pop-outs go)
Customisable order or groups and individual totems
Ability to hide useless or unused totems
Fully skinnable with ButtonFacade
Scale and position configurable
User-configured number of rows permanently visible
Button indicators showing which spells belong to which multicast spell
Short tooltip support
Key bind a spell group (e.g. a single key that will cast whichever fire totem is currently selected)

Spell Management

Key modifier to reorder totems (default: ctrl left click)
Key modifier to drop a totem without reordering (default: shift left click)
Key modifier to set/clear a totem as part of a multicast spell group (default: alt left click)
Cooldowns and timers shown on the button or on separate bars
Destroy Totem or Totemic Call (right click and shift right click, respectively)

How to get started

Open the Blizzard interface frame and choose yata or type /yata in the chat window

Type /kb to keybind abilities

Localisation

Yata needs translating!

As soon as the new description page is syndicated, there is a explanation of options for the option dialog /yata.

@NykSpree8: The Timer cooldown bar hide bug is fixed in the next version
Timer Bar resizing should also make it into the next version (I just forgot about that)

@Localizations:
For everyone asking for Localizations, I need proper Localization strings, take a look into the Localization subdirectory. I especially need the strings listed under TotemData.lua since they are necessary for parsing the totems in your localized version and some have changed for wotlk.

Any chance you could post instructions, or link to them if they exist?
I have searched for a couple days now and no luck, and the choice of wording in the options is not very intuitive.

The #1 thing I'd like to do is just alter the totem macro, without having to actually cast the totem, doesnt seem to work like this as I have to press the "macro reset" key and click a totem, would be awesome if you could right click to "set" a totem on mainbar and therefore on macro, without casting it (like totemtimers)

Also the whole "button swap" thing makes absolutely no sense, no matter how much I tinker with it, can anyone explain what it does and how you do it??

First Thanks! Anything free is all ways good!

I am not seeing how to move the buttons around, on the install the add on set its self dead in the middle of the screen, I have searched through the default add on interface and there is no support for it there, any type of set up instructions so we can get the best out of it would be great.

Do /yata, then under Totem Bar there's the layout editor.

also, is there a way to disable the cooldown bar? you can disable the totem timer bar but the cooldown bar is always visable no matter what.

How can one move the toolbar to say, the lower right corner? Is there a main setup window?

Perhaps I'm missing it, but in addition to having a keybind for each totem element (which looks to be in now), adding the option for keybinding totemic call/making the right-click event "destroy" the specific totem would be a welcome change over the current implementation.

@Thiefmaster
In the new version, the macro totem order should be the order of the elements as shown in the bar. If not I will take a look at it

@Pericles:
This is done in the wotlk version.

A setting to re-order or even remove a totem type from the macro would also be great.
For example, as a healer I usually do not drop a fire totem unless I have the feeling that the little damage from it might be neccessary. However, I usually cannot use the macro since it would drop a fire totem before the air totem...

Shift click to throw Rank 1 is redundant with patch 3.0 as this now costs more mana than max rank.
Right click on bar to cast Totemic recall is overkill. It would be better if it acted like the blizzard totem and recalled only the totem element clicked on. Perhaps a shift right click to recall all.
Would love to have a keybind for each totem element eg: fire totem, earth totem, water totem, air totem. So you can drop the totem you want. Cast sequence macro just doesn't cut it because of the different cooldowns for totems, quickly becomes mana wasteful casting a totem you don't need just to get the sequence back on track. With individual keybinds you don't have this issue.

Could you add an option to keybind each totem element ie: Fire Totem, Earth Totem, Water Totem, Air Totem. I personally dislike using a macro as you then lose all control over the differing cooldowns, so you end up casting something that's not required, or you get out of sequence.

Four separate keybinds on the other hand means you retain full control.
