Quartz
Quartz is a modular approach to a casting bar addon. An overview of (hopefully most of) the modules:
*Player
The core of Quartz is lightweight implementation of a standard casting bar, with configurable size, text and icon positioning, and colors.
*Target/Focus
Implementation of target and focus casting bars in similar fashion to the player cast bar.
*Buffs
Display of target and focus buffs and debuffs as duration bars.
*Flight
Hooks into FlightMap or InFlight to display the current flight progress on your casting bar.
*Global Cooldown
Displays a tiny spark-bar to show your Global Cooldown near the cast bar. Helpful for those who'd rather not squint at their action bars to see when they can cast again.
*Interrupt
Changes the color and text of your casting bar to help show that your cast has been interrupted (and show who interrupted it).
*Latency
Displays the amount of time spent between cast send and start events, in the form of a bar at the end of your casting bar, with optional text that displays the actual duration of the lag. This helps in canceling casts when they will not actually be interrupted, especially for users with consistently high pings.
*Mirror
Shows the 'basic' timers such as breath and feign death, as well as some 'odd' ones such as party invite time, resurrect timeout, and arena game start, and a framework for injecting custom timers into the bars.
*Range
Recolors the casting bar when your cast target moves out of range mid-cast.
*Swing
Displays a swing timer for your melee weapon as well as hunter autoshot.
*Timer
Allows for creating custom timers displayed on the mirror bars.
*Tradeskill Merge
Merges multiple casts of the same tradeskill item into one big cast bar.
Use /quartz to bring up the configuration menu.

Posted Aug 2, 2025i found out that using Quartz and MoveAny, work so so much better than only having just one of these, move any lets you move all cast bars and then quartz lets you personalize it with NO problems and so so easy to just pull it right up by using the backslash moveany open it , move bars and such where u want them and then quartz help with the personalizing lol no we just need something better than Bartender lol and does anyone know how to make mop not so grainy or zoomed in? lol

Posted Jul 19, 2025Cam anyone help get rid of the gap between the cast bar and the border? When I set the background to transparent, every border I try and use has this big empty gap between the border and the cast bar itself....

Posted Sep 3, 2025In reply to kosarai: once you have the "bars" where you want them make sure to hit ENTER, and also if you use this addon and quartz together it all works better

Posted Jun 2, 2025is it possible to make enemy castbars that comes with this add-on interactable?
so I can cast interrupt on them rather then trying to find the enemy from bunch of stacked mobs.
If yes, Is such a thing even allowed by API or Blizzard?

Posted Apr 11, 2025if you guys have a problem with the shield icon disappearing from your target's unkickable casts (even though the option is ticked in) then the issue is another addon called "AddOnSkins"

Posted Feb 4, 2025Like others have reported, classic anniversary. Friendly player castbars are not showing up, however everything else seems to be working as it should. Just not able to see friendly player cast bars (Portals, Hearthstones, Conjure etc.) It's not the end of the world but it's nice to see and now that I don't have it lol its so noticable.
