I'm marking this ticket as done. Other bugs related to the player buffs don't include this part, which is one of the bits that does work.

It could Lin yes. But you'd have to implement the entire menu system with secure headers. Most conditional options in place would break. And addons could not add to your menus without custom code. I far prefer to tell user to bind a key..

Blizzard always do those shit. We can only waiting for they fixed that.

Just ask, is that new secure aura header shit can fix the stupid SetFocus problem?

you are still better off disabling player buffs until the secure aura header is less buggy and zek can finish working with it. it's a shame blizz disabled the old way to do it without making sure new way even worked right.

Twintails try using /cancelaura when turned with Trick-or-Treat, it works for me. Not usefull with all buffs, but almost. So you dont need to disable x-pearl just to do that thing.

/cancelaura Buff-Name ( exactly like it shows on tooltip )

Hope this help

loading an external framexml is a VERY bad idea. it'll break a lot of stuff on patch days when it doesn't match code changes in new patch. there is a work around for this but it's broken. it's listed in known issues alread. blizzard want people to use a new secure aura template they created in 4.0.1 but right now that templateis not completely functional and buggy. once it's working, we can support blizzards new metthod for it the proper way. but until then, blizz protected the old function before the new one was working,and that's why this is a mess.

i applaud you at least for actually searching tickets and using the open one instead of me havingb to close more duplicate tickets.

seems to me like if it is a workaround for the security crap, you could just add this file to the files of x-perl and call it locally.

yep that fixed it.

downloaded the addon kit from

http://us.blizzard.com/support/article.xml?locale=en_US&articleId=21466

and put the FrameXML folder in the main World of Warcraft Game Folder
