Dimmed Actions

Table of Contents

This project is abandoned and its default file will likely not work with the most recent version of World of Warcraft. Whether this project is out of date or its author has marked it as abandoned, this project is no longer maintained.

Update 02/12/11: Sorry for the delay in Bartender/Dominos support. I've been busy with other projects and haven't had time to play WoW or tinker with addons. I used to use Bartender pre-cata so I hope to get Bartender support working.

Dimmed Actions will turn your action buttons (semi) transparent if they meet any of the following conditions

Target is out of range for that action.
Not enough mana/energy/rage for that action.
Action cannot be cast on target (healing spells on hostile target)
Action is currently on cooldown.
Spell already exists on target.

Each of these conditions are optional and can be turned off.

Todo:

Add options to disable spell exists on specific actions.
Add support for Bartender & Dominos' bars.

DA needs translators. Apply here.

Donations welcome. There's a donate button here.

Did you select which bars you want dimmed in the bar options?

I'm using "Dominos" and it seems only to work from one fight until end of fight.
If I go into options and de-mark any of the Checkboxes for Dominos Bar1-10 and re-enable it directly, It works again. But only for a short time.
Looks like a nice Addon, but seems not to work with Dominos, yet.

Is there some problem with "Dim on Cooldown"?
All other Dim's seem to work on the bars. Cooldowned Spells are ignored?
DA 1.3.0 (german = DE) with Bartender4 (Bar 9)
I play a mage.
Would be great to get it work, because i want to use it as a non clickable reminder for instants ;)

Might be a language thing. DA checks each spell's tooltip to see if it has a cooldown, but it looks for the word 'cooldown' which works for english but not for other languages. So someone needs to add the correct translation to the german locale.
When you mouseover a spell, what does the spell's description say? specifically the area where the cooldown text is. maybe I can add it.

Try opening the deDE.lua file and change the "cooldown" entry to be "cooldown". (make sure they're both lowercase)
so it looks like
L["cooldown"] = "cooldown"

Thanks a lot,

the necessary change is:
L["cooldown"] = "Abklingzeit"

Now it works ;)

This addon is fantastic! Make sure you go into the interface and check the bars you want, or it will appear not to be working. I was using Spellflash before, but definitely prefer this addon.

I added support for Dominos' in v1.0.13Beta. I don't use Domino's myself so please let me know if there's any problems.

r48 works well now. By the way, is it possible not to dim healing spell while target is harmful? or add an option for it :Q

sorry for the error in r46, I'm working on adding languages but still needs work.

Healing targets target only checks if a healing spell exists on your targets target instead of your target. So if you cast Rejuvenation on your self then the healing spell will dim if your target's targeting you.

I'll look into the argent tournament vehicle actions.

Thx a lot, It's work fine now :D But there's still some problem... There's 6 skill on argent tournament vehicle, "Defend" should be useable anytime. "Refresh Mount" should be useable while out of combat and not on cooldown. But they still fade out while I have target. By the way, "Healing targets target" function seems not working at all :/ In combat while my target's target is myself, healing spell still fade out. That's all the problem I've seen now. Anyway, it's still a good UI :)

Okay I just got the error too. It was due to using GetSpellName with a spellID of 0. Try r45.
