     hi there! i have a request for some minion frames.

     

    i use the grid2-2.6.18-classic for the season of discovery and play a priest there. now there is a rune called homunculi ( https://www.wowhead.com/classic/spell=402799/homunculi ) which summons 3 minions that attac for me. i can heal them up and if i keep them alive they will stay the whole 2 mins. my problem is now that the 3 stay close together and clicking or mouseover them is really tricky. so for me it is not really easy to see a) the life of them b) if there is any hot or anything on them already. also if i want to see the life bar of them i have to see all the friendly life bars, wich i don't want at all. is it in anyway posible to make a custom group for them? or like a pet group?

     

    thx again for your addon and the work you put in it!

     

    my custom layout on retail with all the things you already added work wonderfull!

    Sorry, if the units are not already displayed as pets, then nothing can be done. The game does not expose those units so addons cannot display or interact with them.

    but they have a seperate option under the "names display" sektion in the option menü and lifebars can be displayed. there is really no way to do this? that is sad.

    Those are game options, blizzard developers have  no restrictions to create whatever they want in the game.

    But addons have a lot of restrictions. Addons cannot create unitframes for minions. I could create unitframes for all the visible nameplates units, but as far as i know there is no way to make a filter to display only  minions nameplates.
