Arcana
Arcana (formerly ChocolateBar) is a lightweight display for broker plugins that lets you organize and observe information on flexible panels. An alternative to TitanPanel, Bazooka and other broker displays.
The Quel'dorei became scattered across the world. To preserve the fragments of arcana they gathered from many sources, they maintain observatories where this knowledge is kept in careful order.
Main Features
- Multiple bars - top/bottom or anywhere as many as you want.
- Decoloring of plugin text and stripping in text icons for a cleaner ui.
- Support for icon colors and coordinates like used by TomTom.
- To qucikly get to a plugins option drag a plugin over the open option drop point.
- More Arcane - a plugin toggle show/hide another bar.
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...

Posted Jul 21, 2018Using CB, one bar at the top. It won't save my background option after a relog. I need to go and manually select which bar background I want every time.

Posted Jul 20, 2018Coming across what I think is a conflict between ChocolateBar and the default Blizz UI, in regards to UI scaling. I use a larger than normal scale for the UI, and so when ChocolateBar centers the bottom default action bar, it causes the right side gryphon to overlap with the character/spellbook/etc buttons. When I open the spellbook and mouse over a spell, the bottom action bars shift to the left, but after about 10-11 seconds of waiting, it will shift back to the right. If I disable UI scaling in System > Advanced, the shifting stops, and the shifting also never occurs if I disable ChocolateBar.
I tried enabling script errors to see if it would catch anything, but no luck.

Posted Jul 20, 2018Having a lot of issues with this addon losing changes, changing backgrounds randomly.
I've only tracked one way it loses settings so far and that is if you create a new bar, move it somewhere, then don't lock it down, the data you've put onto that bar (and random others from other bars) moves back to the main bar. quite strange.Hope you're able to track down the issues. I was trying different broker addons but this one isn't going to work for me :(

Posted Jul 18, 2018I seem to be having issues with it shifting the default UI elements both below and above the bars at top and bottom respectively. No LUA error, but the minimap does not shift to move below the bar and the new Options and Bag menu does not move either. The main action bar moves, but is constantly shifting, one moment it will be above and a reload will drop it back down under the bar, only to have it pop up a few seconds later.
