Good unit frame addon

[heffner]

yes, x-perl does show party cast bars. I was wondering if shadow frames does, it not, then I will stick with x-perl.

Ah, sorry. I just misinterpreted what you wrote.

I herd the default blizzard unit frames don't require patches and always work.

Yeah but they look god awful..... I had some LUA errors after patch, and accidentally clicked on "disable" when it popped up... i couldnt stand it.

I use xperl and have been very happy.

They don't require patches? What happens on Tuesdays? Oh yeah, that's when the NPCs get to sit down for a few hours.

I am a new adopter of SUF. X-Perl always gave me random issues I could never track down. So far SUF has been exactly what I have been looking for to replace xperl.

As far as Pitbull is concerned, when I tried it, I was stunned by the amount of time required just to get up and running. Call me lazy or whatever, I just want things to work when I plug them in. It is nice to have options to change things but I do not want to configure them all on initial install before I can attempt to play. It may be different now, but it ruined me back when I tried it.

I tried this - thanks for the tip. This is the first unitframe addon I have found that allowed me to stop using Discord Unit Frames. Took me a couple of hours to get setup the way I wanted it (and it still doesn't look quite as nice as Discord) but this is far better than PitBull.

Pitbull only allows frames to be sized based on the restrictive sliders. This means that if the Healthbar can slide from 1-100 and you want it to be 103 wide ... you're out of luck. With SUF you can type in 103 and it actually goes to that width (or, in my case, 600) This is really nice because I have the Player Health Bar take up most of the bottom of the screen (so I can see it on the 1/4 sized slave screens).

I saw someone ask if this supported cast bars - the answer is Yes - for just about any frame you can add a cast bar.

No profiles which is a negative - so you can't really switch between UI configs.

Question: Is there a way to change the Party Sort order? Right now it is set to Index. I can change the Raid sort order to Name ... but not the Party sort order.

I've been using pitbull 3 for a long time, looked into shadowed unit frames, and vuhdo unit frames, but waiting for them to start getting updated less frequently was in vain. So i'm still using pitbull, and pretty happy with that for now.

Updates LESS frequently? Not sure I understand - I like the fact that they are in active dev. I don't want a stale app.

Pitbull only allows frames to be sized based on the restrictive sliders.

Which version of Pitbull are you using? PitBull 4 allows you to manually input numbers as well.
