I have read threads here mentioning that it's possible in AG_unitframes to statically layout a unit frame order so that frames are always in the same position reguardless of party position or team members being scattered into different parties with the same raid group, does anyone know how to accomplish this?

I have downloaded ag_unitframes but have been unable to figure out how to configure it in such a way, i've searched here and on the interwebs and came up empty handed.... Currently I am using pitbull as my unit frames using alphabetic party ordering. This solution works perfect as long as I am in the same party, if i am scattered in a raid I need to manually position raid frames on my main to mirrior the same order.

The reason that I want a static and consistant unit frame order for my team is that I use static target healing hotkey macros (1-5 with modifiers) so seeing everyone in the same order all the time keeps the hotkeys intuitive relitive to the order of the healthbars in my UI. I play 4x melee + 1 healer atm and am always in mouse look mode so click broadcast healing on the unit frames wouldn't be a good solution in my case

Any help or ideas appricated :)

Edit: Whoops...ment to put this in the UI section :love:

You mean your Toon 1 Should be the one under your MAin and so on? To be sure that it is like this make 4 Makros with
/invite Toon1

Next Makro:
/invite Toon2

So you have always the same Order, should be , don'T know if I had Understand right, I'm tired ^^

Right, id like this displayed:

toona
toonb
toonc
toond
toone

the problem is that I want it displayed the same on all 5 toons :) and party orders are always displayed inconsistently between different characters. Right now my solution for this is the alpha order in pitbull, which works great if im in the same party. The problem comes when im split up into multiple parties in the same raid group, I basically have to manually filter out the raid frames to get just my team displayed in the desired order. I came across posts mentioning that in AG unitframes you could setup a "team profile" for your party frames which sounded pretty appealing

Can you do anything like this with X-Perl? I use X-Perl and love it but haven't even tried reordering my party or showing my actual members even when I'm in a raid or whatnot. Maybe I'll fiddle with this some.
