Elkano's BuffBars
EBB provides groups of statusbar style indicators to show (de)buffs currently affecting your char or some other units (currently focus, pet and target). For the player, it can also show indicators for temporary enchants place on it's weapons.
Due to changes Blizzard made with WoW 4.x it's no longer possible to cancel buffs without the use of secure frames. Currently EBB limits canceling of buffs to out-of-fight since using SecureAuraHeader would have required a major code restructuring. This will be coming in a later version.
Version 2.x is a total recode based on the Ace2 framework which became necessary in order to support some of the longtime wanted and suggested features. It's now possible to show different groups of bars which can be configured in many ways. Each group can be assigned an individual look and filter settings. EBB can be configured via a dropdown menu which is accessible via chat (/ebb config), FuBar plugin or (for the group settings) by right clicking the groups anchor. After setting up a group, its anchor can be hidden by alt-left clicking a bar or the anchor itself in order to lock the group in place.
In order to get additional bar textures and fonts for EBB simply install SharedMedia which is available for download under http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/sharedmedia.aspx

Is there any way to disable it showing item buffs in the buffbar?
The only way (for me) to have the buff/debuff poping form bottom to top is to tip: /ebb anchor topleft/right /ebb anchor bottomleft/right
invert doesn't do anything...
Hi Elkano, dein Buff Mod ist wirklich großartig, allerdings hätte ich eine Bitte an Dich! Könntest du bitte noch die Möglichkeit einbauen, dass man die Namen der Buffs/Debuffs ausblenden kann? Und das am Besten noch getrennt für Buffs und Debuffs! Dann wäre dein Mod imho noch besser! Eine Option, um die Textgröße zu verändern könnte auch nicht schaden. :)
that's not anchor but invert :) anchor simply sets the corner that will stay in place but doesn't change the way the buffs are aligned. invert will align the buffs from bottom to top but won't schange the sticky corner. so try /ebb invert true
/ebb show what i configured before logout. and i'm getting default anchor but i want bottomleft
i want that the 1st buff stay locked and the 2nd, 3rd, 4th ... pop on th top of the 1st. ... 4th 3rd 2nd ->1st buff locked
hmm, I don't get the problem. So /ebb shows the corrct anchor even after login? or does it then show the default? What is the behavior you're getting and what's the behavior you expect?
edit: tested it on my client and was working even over logouts :/ so most likely you expecting it to work in a different way
Hi, i play with french version and every time i load the game i have to reconfigure the anchor. i want to put "BOTTOMRIGHT" but went i load the game it goes back to default anchor. The text (when I tip /ebb) show "BOTTOMRIGHT" but it's "TOPRIGHT".
The code to hide Blizzard's is in and working. So ElkBuffBar actualy hides them. Unfortunatly there seem to be a lot of addons that force to show them if they aren't hiding them themselves. Do you have anything like MoveAnything, CT, ... installed that would possibly also hide these icons but is set to not do so?
NICE!
Very nice.
I'm having trouble getting rid of the old buff icons. Can anyone clue me in on how to get rid of the old buff icons? Currently, both Elkano's BuffBar and the original BuffBars are on my screen.
i like 2 know that as well ?? ... HELP PLZ!!!11
Never mind. I like it ;o)
Da gibt es nichts zu beheben, da invert genau das machen soll (das Verhalten ist übrigens bei invert true und nicht invert false). Dem Verschieben kann man entgegenwirken, indem man anchor auf z.B. bottomright stellt, so dass die untere rechte Ecke der Buffbars an der selben Stelle bleibt.
Hey, wenn ich /ebb invert False einstelle, dann kommen neue Buffs nach oben, dafür rutscht der buff, der schon da war eine stelle nach unten...somit verschiebt alles immer :o
hoffe du kannst es fixen.
Might I also suggest SavedVariablesPerCharacter? :)
[Elkano] I run at 14 most of the time (b/c during raids you need to watch your buffs/debuffs) but with leveling/grouping chars I use 8-10 b/c all I really need to know is that something's there and don't need to be too buggered about what it really is most of the time so clear/easy reading isn't necessary and I can mouse-over when I need.
>0 is an easy check though :D
And tons of thanks for the time disable.
The hacked Gypsybuff frame wasn't done by me. But I liked it's look so I made these look almost the same :) but the code itself is a total rewrite.
with 1.2 the time display can be disabled and the min height is now 15. (maybe I should simply set it to > 0? ;) )
Been enjoying this thing from back when it was just a gypsy hack but one thing, now that it's under support thats in a place I can find: Could you add the option to remove the time?
And is there any reason for the height restraint being a min of 20? (I run the version I have at 14 with no perceptable issues/overlaps/etc)
are you running any mds like MoveAnything or those of it's kind that allow you to move and hide frames? That could be the reason.
Very nice.
