CooldownToGo
Displays the remaing cooldown of the action you tried to use. Type /cdtg for help, /cdtg config for configuration.
CooldownToGo displays the cooldown on the last action/spell/item you tried to use (and failed due to it being on cooldown). The display consists of the icon of the action and a countdown showing the cooldown time remaining. The display fades after a configurable period, and it pops up again when the cooldown is (almost) finished. It is possible to set up an ignore-list for abilities you don't want to track, and a grace-period before the ability is checked for cooldown (for button-smashers).
After installing, CooldownToGo will be enabled by default, and unlocked, so you'll see a semi-transparent rectangle in the center of your UI that you can drag to a position you like. After finding a good place for it you should lock the frame with /cdtg locked, so that it won't eat your mouse clicks.
Cooldown to go blocked me from changing glyphs and then menu poped up offering to turn off the addon.

This is unfortunately a blizzard issue, and so far we (addon authors) haven't found a workaround or fix for this. The "taint" blame is passed on to seemingly random addons... Try reloading your UI (/rl) and do the glyph changing.

The "Hold Time" setting is responsible for fading out the display after a while. This cannot be set above 5 secs from the GUI config, but you can try the following (in the chat box):
/run CooldownToGo.db.profile.holdTime=10000
The other option is to modify CooldownToGo_Options/Options.lua (around line 50): change the "max = 5.0" line for the "holdTime" option to something big (like 10000).

Hi,
It's not possible presently in a "sane" way. You can hack it though with something like:
/run CooldownToGo.db.profile.holdTime=10000
(just do not touch the holdTime from the config options afterwards).
Open a ticket if you'd like this feature better supported :)

What if you don't want the CD timer to disappear after X seconds, but stay until the cooldown is gone? Is that possible?
But is there an addon to flash in the middle of the screen when a CD finishes? (Like JIM's Cooldown Pulse in the past)
cheers,
mitch ps: it might cause some side effects though, but I can't test now, I kinda suspended wow for a while.
Hi, this still rocks and I have just a tiny feature request if I may: would it be possible to raise the maximum scale, so I can have a nice big button if I choose to. Thanks for all your work!
I like the changes, they're very nice. Thanks!
@andreasg: Hm, I didn't want to update too often to preserve teh precious cycles :) Do you think a 3-level (low = 0.1, medium=0.05, high = 0) setting would be enough (as exposing "UpdateDelay" as-is would be unfriendly for the non-dev users, I think)?
I'll see what I can do about the grace period thing.
cheers, mitch
I remember seeing CD on my Arcane Torrent a week ago but then it stopped showing it, I checked config, there is nothing in the ignore section.
I think it's an unfortunate side effect of the fix for the errors when summoning a mount. I'll look into it.
cheers,

They used to work before the "mount" patch you mentioned, could those be fixed please?
I am using curse client and it will update this addon to the latest version, so I cant install the old version that worked. I can live with one-time mount error provided the vital CDs are working. Otherwise this is a great addon!
cheers,

Hi there, very nice addon.
I was wondering if you could change or make an option for controlling the UpdateDelay, as 0.1 isn't often enough to make the fade out animation smooth.
Also, I was wondering if you could add a grace-period of like 0.5s after a spell has been used where it won't trigger a cooldown, because if you spam push a spell it will trigger the CooldownToGo at a time where you don't really mean to.
this rocks, /cheers
