Yata - Yet Another Totem Addon

Yata is the answer to all your totem (and weapon imbue) needs

What is Yata?

Yata is a hugely flexible totem bar addon, enabling your shaman to organise their totems, cast them (individually, through the multicast spells or by /castsequence macro) and track cooldowns and timers.

Yata was originally created by Tornhoof and was one of the pioneers of totem bar support during The Burning Crusade. It has been brought up to date in Wrath of the Lich King by kaytikat.

Features

Bars

  • Horizontal or vertical layout (with the ability to choose which side the pop-outs go)
  • Customisable order or groups and individual totems
  • Ability to hide useless or unused totems
  • Fully skinnable with ButtonFacade
  • Scale and position configurable
  • User-configured number of rows permanently visible
  • Button indicators showing which spells belong to which multicast spell
  • Short tooltip support
  • Key bind a spell group (e.g. a single key that will cast whichever fire totem is currently selected)

Spell Management

  • Key modifier to reorder totems (default: ctrl left click)
  • Key modifier to drop a totem without reordering (default: shift left click)
  • Key modifier to set/clear a totem as part of a multicast spell group (default: alt left click)
  • Cooldowns and timers shown on the button or on separate bars
  • Destroy Totem or Totemic Call (right click and shift right click, respectively)

How to get started

Open the Blizzard interface frame and choose yata or type /yata in the chat window

Type /kb to keybind abilities

    I wish someone would take this over and update it, I miss it a LOT!

    Sorry for not updating for 4.3

    I stopped playing WoW months ago and no longer have access to an account so there will be no more updates for yata.

    Anyone with wow coding experience that wants to take the project on should contact me by PM

    I know this has been asked before, and I saw that you can cast Recall by right-clicking on the Call button, but I would really really like an option to display a specific button for Totemic Recall, too. I'd also like to say that this is a fantastic addon. I found this while looking for an addon to skin the Totem Bar, but Yata is so much more and I love it. Thank you for your work! :)

    Thanks for the solution!

    You will find a configuration option for opacity in an upcoming release

    does anyone know if its possible to set the alpha of the yata totem bar somehow? if not maybe i will make a ticket? i guess i can just add a something.SetAlpha(0.5) to the code somewhere to do this?

    thanks

    i added self:SetAlpha(0.5) at end of function TotemBar:SkinButtons(skin) and it seems to work :)

    I understand what you mean. Unfortunately, yata only supports a single bar at the moment. The effort involved with changing this means that it will probably stay this way, sorry!

    Could you add, an option that makes you either create a new frame with just the weapon buff and calls. Or either make them be sole, not always adjusted to the totem bars. I tried making a new frame, by disabling the totem bars but all i managed was to make my totems dissapear and have only the other 2 windows. If you get what i mean :D

    kaytikat, I've sent you a PM about the (not really advised) move of hard-embedding a personally customized version of LibBars-1.0 with the latest 4.3 release.

    Hehe, no worries.

    I guess the documentation needs some more work to make these things clear.
