Mouseover healing with Innerspace and Grid: Re-Arrange party member order

[balrog78]

Sorry if I am posting in the wrong forum. Dont know whether I can achieve what I want to do with an addon, Innerspace or a macro.

I set up a mouse repeater region in Innerspace over my Grid (the addon). I want to heal with mouseover, something like /cast [target=mouseover] lesser healing wave. But the order of party leader -> party1 -> ... -> party5 is different for every client. target=Player is always at top. Is there an option in wow or maybe and addon to set the order of the party member or do you have any other idea how I could do that?

thanks

you can't do this directly ingame with grid, but what you can do, is editing the layout-file of grid with a text editor.

To do so go to the Addon folder of Grid and open the GridLayoutLayout.lua .

There for the normal profiles (like 'By Group 5') you can specify by setting the parameter 'SortMethod' to "NAME" , that grid don't sort by index, but alphabetical.

Or you could simply add a new profile at the end of the file, if you don't want to change an exsisting, with for example:


GridLayout:AddLayout(L["By Group 5 Alphabetical"], {
[1] = {
showParty = true,
showRaid = false,
sortMethod = "NAME",
},
})


as regarding for mouse-over-healing, this is realy useful, and in my setup I use it nearly for all my party heals (with hkn not innerspace, but IS should be as good for this as HKN).

Thanks, I will try this. I just found another way, it sorts by name by default if I choose the layout by classes. But ofc the resulting layout is better if I apply the changes you suggested.

For positioning your Grid just right did you do anything paticular?

I am extremely keen to use this feature as well it sounds awesome. :)

hm, for positioning the grid, I simply moved it and used an 'optical landmark' to get it to the same position on all my chars.

This is exactly what i was looking for and I have made it work with Grid.

Is it possible to do something similar with Healbot continued? I have been trying to find a way to make the names sort alphabetically for a while now.
