Anyone know the name of the frame that pops up showing the entire raid, while in battlegrounds?
I'm trying to hide the frame, with MoveAnything, but need to know the name of the frame to /hide framename.

I've unchecked everything, in the Blizzard raid (interface options) section, but that hasn't gotten rid of it.

Thanks in advance.

"WorldFrame" (that is the configuration pane to the left that is expandable and has another name than the groups)

if you want to know how a UI element is named run this macro /run print(GetMouseFocus():GetName()) while you mouseover it

These days that function is built into the client and you can just type /framestack or /fstack.

Using /fstack, I get:

Frame Stack (125.54, 723.69)
DIALOG
<2> CompactRaidFrameManagerContainerResizeFrame
MEDIUM
<0> UIParent
WORLD
<0> WorldFrame

The /Hide command in Move Anything, does not accept the Enter key when I enter /Hide WorldFrame or /Hide CompactRaidFrameManagerContainerResizeFrame.
Nor does a keybind set for hiding the current frame.

The frame only appears sometimes in battlegrounds, but it covers up many of my unit frames along the side of the screen, and part of my chat box.
Once it appears, it doesn't disappear for that battleground.
Kind of annoying, and wouldn't mind having it go away for good.

If you go into moveanything, and you click 'dungeons & raids, and then Raid Unit Frames ... that seem to work for me here.

You could install shadow unit frames for this single purpose, do /shadowuf and then 'hide blizzard' and chose hide raid frames.

And does this work?

/run CompactRaidFrameManager:UnregisterAllEvents() CompactRaidFrameManager:Hide() CompactRaidFrameContainer:UnregisterAllEvents() CompactRaidFrameContainer:Hide()

which you should run every time i'm afraid when you log in a new toon.

The macro works perfectly!

Added it to the IS Boxer mapped key which invites the other characters to the group.
That is usually run only once each playing session.
