Arrange your healing addons (healbot, Clique, VhuDo) to only show your characters in raid.

I use mouse repeated region to heal. And I've been using healbot, sorted by name. This works fine for a 5 man group. When I am in WG and battlegrounds, my toons are scattered into different groups. My repeated region is small. and I don't want to show the whole raid and try to find my characters in there to heal them. So I am trying to find a way to only show my characters with healbot. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any options to allow me to show healbars with a pre-defined name set. The best I can do is to show by class and sort by names. That gives me like 15 paladins in raid lol. The list is still too big. If I add DK in there, it is like showing half of the raid.

I have not tried Clique or Vhudo. would those two addons allow "true" customization of raid health bars? I want to show just 5 characters even if they are scattered to different groups (1-8). And to take this 1 step further, is it possible to show heal bar for characters that are not in the same raid group as you ? (this is for WG, the auto inv sometimes to put my toons into different raid groups).

Grid allows you to *only* show the characters you select it to, in any order you wish. It's not fancy but it's dependable and simple. I swapped to it for repeater regions and BG's and I'm not going back.

Thanks. I might try Grid out. I never used Grid. Does it allow click to heal ? or is it just showing the status of a certain character. I've read somewhere that you have to combine Grid + Clique to heal. I am bit confused here. If Clique allows click to heal, what would I need Grid for? to show raid debuffs ?

Grid shows you the toons in the raid/BG/group and gives you a small box (sizable) to "click heal" each toon. Grid also allows for aggro, buffs, debuffs, mouseovers combined with macros, etc.

Clique allows you to set up your mouse buttons to a specific type of heal ( Flash heal, renew, etc.) It also can be set up to "follow" your specs with different sets of heals or combinations.

Together they cant be beat imo. It can be somewhat a task to set it up to suit your play style but once it is done, they are a click/mouseover and forget addon(s).

The naga mouse is a wonder, but I would suggest going to the actual Razor website to order.

I had to edit one lua file to get it ordered alphabetically but knowing how to do this would be awesome in raiding context like BGs and WG.
Does this means it'll only show toons with a specific name or...? And how, please :°?

Thank you

I use Pitbull4 for my raid frames and have used Vuhdo and Grid in the past. What I do to keep my party together is to use the Blizzard Raid Frames.

Open your Raid Options "O" and in the Raid tab Shift Drag out your five players and place them where you will. Each time you join a raid the same 5 players will always be in the same place from there on out. It works very well sure it does not have the nice big bars that a typical custom raid frame has but it works nicely If you want them bigger I imagine you can use MoveAnything to resize them.

I tried to drag my characters out with blizzard raid frame. It worked ok. Every time I join raids. They will be there. But that's for showing their status only. I have to combine it with some kinda click healing addon to allow me to click heal them. I don't want to de-select my current target and select them to heal.

You can use Clique or Mouseover healing macro's which is what I use.

Thanks I see. Maybe I will build this into my dps macro.
/cast [target=mouseover,help,exists,nodead] Flash of Light

This saves me from clicking it. and I can keep spamming my attack macro.
