Features

Mouseover Fade (action bars, frames)

You can fade out most of the actions bars and frames for different scenarios. You can set different alpha values for In Combat, Out of Combat, and In Resting Area. You also can set the options globally and use them for each action bar/frame.

Configuration options

• Allow mouseover in combat
• Fade Duration
• In Combat Fade
• Out of Combat Fade
• Fade based on health percentage
• Instanced Area fade
• Rested Area Fade
• Set options globally or for each frame
• Treat targeting as in combat fade
• Be able to link frames together for fading

The priority of the checks is as follows

1. In Combat Fade
2. Has Target Fade (which uses the In Combat Fade values)
3. Health percentage
4. Instanced Area fade
5. Rested Area Fade
6. Out Of Combat Fade

Class Resource

You can

• Hide the class resource

You also can change the settings for the Totem Frame.

Performance

Even though the add-on has to check more or less in a set interval, it is very performant. It only uses memory if there are fades being performed and checks in a smart way if there is something to render. If you have any trouble, you can manually set the interval which is used for the fading checks.

FAQ

Frame not showing even though it should

Please ensure you have enabled the wanted option for the given action bar or frame. Also, make sure you haven't set the Bar Visible option in the Blizzard Edit Mode to something else than Always visible

• If set to Out of Combat you might be missing the frame or can't mouseover it since the blizzard option overwrites everything else

Frame fading out when fade delay is set

Usually this only happens when you mouseover a frame. Mouseover overwrites the fade animation, which has a set delay and will not maintain the delay after you leave the frame.

Fading is setup but nothing happens

Make sure you have Enabled the fading for the given frame

I have setup the position of class resources but it won't move

Make sure you have set atleast the anchor and either xOffset or yOffset since any combination is needed to actually move the resource frame.

Known Issues

• When reloading the UI while having a target the alpha will only applied once the target changes
• When using Minimap fading the textures do not get loaded by blizzard for indoors maps
• When moving an ability when in combat, the actionbar padding will not be applied since it would use protected functions while in combat
