ChocolateBar Broker Display
ChocolateBar will create a bar on top or bottom of your screen where other addons called broker plugins can display stuff like your fps.
Example Bar:
Main Features
- Easy setup, install & go!
- Multiple bars - top or bottom as many as you want.
- Left, right and center alignment.
- Support for icon colors and coordinates like used by TomTom.
- Easy config, simply drag a plugin and drop points will show. The idea is to easily disable a plugin or toggle its text. See pics.
- Load-on-demand options, and small memory footprint.
- More Chocolate - a broker plugin to show a bar that will autohide again. Great for launchers or other plugins you don't need visible all the time:)
Options for:
- Show bars on mouse over only.
- Hide bars in combat.
- Hide bars during a pet battle.
- Set a fixed width for any plugin.
- Change textures, font, colors and a lot more...

You miss a feature or found a bug? I look forward to your feedback.
Example: I have activated only ArkInventory v3.02.57 and ChocolateBar v2.0.6 and I am getting the following Error. It seems that ChocolateBar is using the Ace3-AceDB of ArkInventory. If I deactivate ArkInventory ChocolateBar (by the way it looks good!) I can reproduce the same error with ChocolateBar and other AddOns but if I am using the other Addons together I won't have the problems.
May be somebody has a good idea!?

I only have one question , how can I change the font size ?
I am sorry that My English is so poor,can you get my point?
I love chocolatebar!
As a note, after updating to r109, something has broken with libJostle. Upon each login, I get the libJostle related error and then several of my loader/display modules do not display.
However, once I go into ChocolateBar config, select ANY module on the bar that is effected (top or bottom), uncheck the "ENABLE" box and then re-check the ENABLE box (essentially turning the module off then on), the effected modules on that bar will appear normally.
Just quite annoying having to do this upon every login attempt atm.
Hope it's resolved soon! Thanks!

The error has gone away. Might want to update ChocolateBar to include the latest version of LibJostle.
Thanks!
