    How do I manually add this to the PitBull code?

    I want so that whenever my target is something with Dragonmaw or Thrym, the portrait should be "Full body", because these two behave weirdly and if "Full body" is selected, you will see them correctly as only their head.

    As a Dragonmaw fel orc on Netherwing Ledge, the portrait turns to full body even if I don't have that selected, but by selecting it I can get a head-view just like I want it. Hopefull someone here understands what I mean.

    Tried r1878 last night and it has memory leaks for me, games lags every couple secs. It's also in 1877, possibly in 1876. 1875 gives me no issues

    I agree with keLston, same thing happens with me. I tried to get my pitbull to go into config mode while in a raid and I couldnt. It just locked up on me. I had to reload ui and then it did what I wanted it to do. But this has happened while in raid and in a 5 man. So not sure whats up, before it never gave me problems with it. I use buggrabber and bugsack. But it doesnt give me an error message, it just locks up and wont do anything. Thx for any input on this.

    Are there any known issues with DruidManaBar? I recently cleaned up my addons and grabbed the latest version off curse.com and my druid's mana is no longer showing when I switch into cat or bear form. DruidManaBar is also not available in the modules section of pitbull. Any ideas?

    Is there a way to prevent the LUA error and general loss of functionality when someone joins your party while you're in combat?

    Ends up now showing in the party frame the person who joined and results in the necessity to relog or reload ui.

    If I downgrade Libdogtag in pitbull it works fine, there's something not right here, I've been using the same coding for my health frames for almost a year now.

    That worked, thanks licwid!

    Dejahthoris Do this to to make Dalaran Brilliance/Dalaran Intellect show up.

    /pitbull +Global Settings +Aura Add extra friend buff In the box to the right of this type Dalaran Brilliance hit enter Dalaran Intellect hit enter

    you should now see both of these in the extra friend buff box above.

    The new Dalaran Brilliance buff doesn't show up on my raid frames, but Arcane Brilliance does.
