Elkano's BuffBars

Table of Contents

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

This is unfortunatly not a bug in EBB but in Blizzard's API itself. The API will still return 3 stacks for the player onit for that buff even if the number decreased again, for the vehicle unit it works (most likely for pet, too). Luckily for that specific buff you have the visual indication of the shields around your char.
I told Zootfizzle about it and he said he would be looking into it. Don't know if it can be hotfixed though.

Works good except for stacking buffs. I noticed it when i was doing the argent champion quests. The shield buff will stack up to 3, but when your shield is removed, it will not stack down.

Better settings to differntiate between self-applied and other debuffs would be really great.

For example my warrior uses EBB to track target debuffs:

x) I only want to see my own Rend (_very_ important for arms)
x) I also only want to see my Deep Wounds, not 5 bars from other warriors
x) Sunder Armor, ThunderClap, DemoShout should be displayed regardless if i or another warrior applied / refreshed it

Would there be a way to add a "show only if self-applied" checkbox for each buff/debuff instead of the current general setting for whole bar-groups?

When having a group setup to show a target's debuffs, is there a way to filter to show only the particular debuffs that you applied to the target and not someone else (even if they are the same debuff)?

Absolutely, Pigmonkey below helped me fix this with the below post

Pigmonkey Said: "A quick fix for the Self Cast Buffs:

1. Open ElkBuffBars.lua in Notepad
2. Find the line that contains "isMine = UnitAura". Note that there will be some code before and after this segment in quotes
3. After this line, add:

if isMine == "player" then
isMine = true
else
isMine = false
end

Save and reload your UI. This should work."

If you need some visual help as to how to apply this code you can view my edited file here http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v166/Trailslayer/Ebbfix.jpg

I hope this helps you guys get by until the author can fix this.
