ABOUT THE UI:
This UI is somewhat inspired by the GuildWars2 UI and is designed with any class/spec in mind. I play a lot of different classes/specs myself and have always been busy building the "perfect" UI that works for any role. Ofcourse the "perfect" UI for a healer or a dps player can never be the same thing, anyway I think I've done a good job at how well this interface works for different roles/specs. The UI is very much a graphical interface, in the way that it brings most information "visually" to the user.
The UI is built with existing AddOns only, however some minor tweaks are applied in some of the LUA code to make the AddOns match the visual style.
KNOWN ISSUES/ANNOYANCES AND HOW TO FIX THEM:
The health orb does not fit correctly for some resolutions, follow these steps to fix this:
- Type /rbbs
- Go to General > Unlock All and use the left mouse button to move the orb around, right mouse to scale it correctly.
- Again, type /rbbs and go to General > Lock All
ADDONS AND HOW TO USE THEM:
- RAID FRAME BE GONE - Dermabion
Hides the Blizzard raid frame, type /frbg show to show it and /rfbg hide to hide it.
- GRID - Phanx, Maia, Pastamancer - Raid/Party frames. Includes ManaBars and DungeonRole AddOns for Grid.
Grid displays player role in the right bottom of the frames: Orange/Red = melee/ranged DPS, Green = Healer, Blue = Tank.
- CLIQUE - Cladhaire
This addon will let you bind spells to use on Grid frames or other unit frames. It show's up on the right side of your Spellbook. After clicking it you can mouse-over a spell in your Spellbook, hit a key you want to bind, and it's done. Hover the mouse over any grid unit frame and press the key, it's magic.
- DOMINOS - Tuller - Actionbar mod.
Tips for the Actionbars:
- You can find your extra acionbars around the visible actionbars.

- type / and copy this command: run for i = 1,120 do PickupAction(i) ClearCursor() end to clean up/empty your actionbars. (this comes handy when you have to setup all your spells)

Tracks all buffs/debuffs. Short buffs on yourself and by yourself are displayed right to the health orb. Buffs/debuffs you apply on your target are displayed at the left of the health orb.
