Workaround for displaying debuff and buff indicators at the same time on health bar #1549

    What version of Grid2  are you using (Version is displayed in General/About Tab) ?  v4.0.13

     

    What game client version, classic or retail, windows or mac and language are you using ? Retail

     

    Hello! I was wondering if you could help me with a clever workaround for my problem. I understand that Blizzard changed a bunch of stuff in 12.1 and this is why we can't have multiple aura indicator types active at the same on the same 'slot'. 

     

    However, I was hoping I could still replicate the old behavior somehow. In raids, I like to color my HP bars when a buff (Renewing Mist/Riptide etc.) is present. However, I would also like my frames to change their color when there is a dispellable debuff. I used to be able to do this by simply adding the debuff and buff indicators I needed on my health-bar indicator multibar. 

     

    Now I need to decide which one I would like to keep, so I went with the dispellablebyme status. Can I create a new HP bar, or any sort of other indicator to mock my previous setup (color the entire frame when there's a hot) ? 

     

    Thank you very much!

    You can create a extra bar indicator (indicators > Right Panel to create new indicators).

    And put this extra bar on top of your health-bar (framelevel higher than your first health bar), configure this new bar to display the health + another  buff/debuff.

     

    Update:

    You can try out version 4.0.19-beta, this version allows to link up to two aura statuses to the bar colors.

    Update2:

    Increased the max auras to three in version 4.0.21-beta
