Grid Help

Grid Custom Layouts has had a 4.1 fix for quite some time.
It was less than a week after 4.1 that the fix came out.

You can go with Healbot or Vuhdo as stand alone addons.
If you go with Grid, you'll also need Grid Custom Layouts and Clique.

Pick the one (Grid, Healbot or Vuhdo) that graphically is the best looking for you.
Functionally, they are the same.

I like to have the frames relatively small.
But to display the entire raid.
And to have my toons always in the left column.

I accomplish this with this custom layout:
ToonA,ToonB,ToonC,ToonD,ToonE;NAME
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8;5/8;NAME;NR

I actually list 37 names on line one.
It is Name comma Name comma Name.
No spaces anywhere.
Then semi-colon and NAME is caps.
Because there are two lines, line one is column one.

Line two denotes showing toons from groups 1-8.
There are five rows deep and eight columns across (that's the 5/8).
NAME again is an alphabetical sort.
And the NR means No Repeating.
Basically if a name already appears in the grid (such as my five current toons, in column one) then those names will not appear elsewhere, even if BG placed four of my toons in Group 1 and the last toon in Group 2.

Oatboat:
Thanks! Got it sorted now, guess I was too impatient to logout normally.

Ualaa:
Thank you!
After I got GridCustomLayouts to work properly your custom layout setup made more a lot more sense (saw it on some other forum, I believe, when googling).
And thanks for explaining the details, extremely helpful!
