I know you really don't want to add any more functionality to the color picker, but it'd be awesome if you would. The reason being that when people are setting up a UI, they often want to match colors exactly and if there isn't a more precise way to do it with StatBlocks, then that ends up being a pretty big detractor from the mod overall.

Has anyone tried Orion's DogTag block already? That sounds mighty interesting to me...
(yeeeees, I know, I am lazy. will go and give it a try myself as soon as I find the time. ^^*)
eh... i can upload it if you really want to..
@Funkydude, sugestion:
make the stat blocks modules of the main addon, use the module prototype to offer the extra options (x/y positioning, alpha, color, ect), and use the "OnModuleCreated" in the core to create the frame ect. Might make managing things easier.
Since adding the x,y positioning, there is a problem with alignment. Before, it seemed to be left-justified, now it seems to be center justified. Is it possible to add alignment options?

I would if I could think of a clean and worthwhile way of doing it.

Latency module suggestion: separate "default color" - wich will automatically color depending on latency (you know, white-very good, green-good, yelow-bad,red- omg laggy shit)
and ill second the request for being able to pick different colors like 100FPS / 2563ms
Yeah I will think about it.

Why do you need alignment? Just move the blocks with the mouse.
was thinking something like this, i think it would be slightly more streamlined. the whole idea with calling block options and passing the block and object just seems wrong...

Say you're lining things up along the left screen edge. As it is, you can't have them lined up against the edge because every time the text changed, it would align itself to the center, and you'd have something like this:
Feel free to change it, I don't really have the time to look into the API at the moment, I'll be concentrating on the above requests next time I have coding time.

Didn't really like your pastey, but I changed it to use a prototype.

123456
1234
12345678
123456
When you want it to look like this:
123456
1234
1234567
123456
Hmm yeah, I'll look into that.

Has anyone done a bag block yet ?

Would it be possible to add a coordinates block?
I'll make these 2 if no one else does by the time I'm done if the above todo.

i hope someone can help me... my block position don't get saved.. everytime i reload everything is in center.
ok i test it more.. not any setting is got saved :/
Are you using vista? Make sure you boot wow with administrator, this problem isn't specific to StatBlocks.
Ok folks, I'm going to be away all weekend but I felt I should whip up a little example so you can play with until I next have coding time. The memory block now has 2 new features. You can choose the color of the text |MB| and also what text itself is displayed i.e. change |MB| to |mb| or even |memory|, hell even |shrysw7| whatever suits you.
EDIT: Keep in mind some fonts only display in capital letters.

On svn/files/wau
And it works as intended, and weight some kb.
Just disable when job done.

For instance - a module that lets you create any number of new "blocks" where you can just input a dogtag string to display inside the bocks?
