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

Posted Jul 1, 2008Anyone know how to set this mod up to show only the debuffs on a target that come from you only and not from other sources? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Posted Jun 14, 2008I've noticed poisons are in green, but rest of the debuffs are in red. Is there any way to change that so you can see the diffrence between curses, magics and so on.
Makes debuffing easier :)
(Or any other solution that can solve my problem)

Posted Jun 11, 2008De-/buff times for units other then the player (and maybe its pet) will only show up if the coresponding de-/buff was cast by the player. There is no time information available from the client in the other case so nothing I could do about it.

Posted Jun 5, 2008what you see is coloring debuffs by type. This can be disabled in the groups' settings.
Red is a normal debuff, blue a magical, green a poison, yellow/brown a desease and purple a curse, clensable with the matching spells. So this colors can help you decide if you can remove them with specific dispells.

Posted Jun 4, 2008Hi, first off, love the addon.
I'm doing a custom UI and I'm placing the EBB down near the bottom of my screen. The space i've alotted for EBB is not too big, so here's my question:
Is there a way to set the maximum number of buffs shown for a certain group? I always want to have the one with the least ammount of time left showing at the top, but I want it only to display 10 buffs at a time. I can't seem to find a way to do this.

Posted May 29, 2008There used to be an empty bar that when i wasnt tracking anything would allow me to click it and change what im tracking. Now it only appears when im tracking something, then i can change it. Did you remove it or did i turn it off?

Posted May 22, 2008Great addon! Keep up the good work!
one thing though, please add a 'first in first out' sorting option, i.e. the latest added bar stays at the bottom, and that it's not sorted by time or a-z.

Posted May 23, 2008Impossible the way it's implemented. The only thing possible would be unsorted meaning they would show up in the same order they do in Blizzard's frames.

Posted Jun 4, 2008I'm running v 2.1, and there is no "Toggle Anchor" anywhere in the right click menu tree. I can uncheck "Show Anchor", but that also wipes out the name box at the top.

Posted May 17, 2008I setup two bars (player and target), and somehow got the target bar to disappear unless I targeted something with a buff/debuff on it. When it appeared, the anchor (label) was intact. I tried to do the same with my warlock with an additional bar for my minion. It didn't work, and I lost the other auto-hide setup in the process.
Now I'm stuck with "blessings of demonstration" on my additional bars. Is there a way to intentionally make the bars auto-hide without removing the anchors, or did I just get lucky for a short time?

Posted May 16, 2008I love this addon and have used it for over a year now, but I have one little problem now that I have rolled a Shamman alt.
I now for the first time have the the third buff tracker up for rockbiter, Windfurry and such and dont like how it starts a whole new bar tree. Is there any way I can like sticky it to the main buff bar so it just displays under the rest of my buffs?

Posted May 14, 2008Okay, someone asked this earlier but I cant see the answer. Nor can I change pages to see more comments, god knows why. I hid the anchor thingy and now I cant move the bars at all, how can I get it back?
