It's basically a simple combat log that displays combat in manner similar to how SCT/SCTD would in a log. It sperates incoming events (left side) from out going events (right side) from misc. events (middle). Additonally it displays the spell icons for each spell/skill events.
Drag the frame for placement. Right click the frame to get the options menu (colors, text size, etc...). Use the scroll buttons or mouse wheel to scroll through events. Hold shift while doing either to go to the top or bottom.
i installed this earlier and got an error about parserlib not being defined or some such nonsense. the combat log window shows up and i can move it around, and the only thing on it is a scroll up button. when i click the button i get an error about "scrollUp" and when i right click i get an error about "dropMenu" or something. doesn't seem to work at all : /
Going to try it now, looks sweet. Might finnaly be able to do away with a textual combat log alltogether now.
EDIT: Looking good, can't wait for all the extended option, if it gets half as much customization as SCT/SCTD then Wow, just wow. Thanks Greyhoof.
Requests:
Make it so it can't be draged out of the screen ala XRaidStatus and Squishy.
Lockable
Be able to turn events on and off like SCT and whatnot. I hate seeing +combat and -combat (personal thing I know)
Possibly a FuBar plugin for the options, so you can take the right click functionalty away from the frame it's self, nothing like a missplaced right mouse click in combat.
Bugs:
After being out of combat for a while and all the text fading away soon as you get back into combat all the old messages reapear.
Overall it's already in such a useable state ive ditched the last few bits of nurfed UI and replaced thier combat log with eavesdrop.
Awesome and well done Grayhoof. I could use some sizing options, or maybe the ability to replace the font it's using, the font I'm using as a general override makes the frame feel much too large. The usual background, border, coloring, sizing options would be awesome :).
Did you swap the healing text? i didnt get a chance to fully test, but bloodthirst appears to be showing +'s in the incoming frame (instead of the outgoing frame, as it had before). which makes sense, but feels like its in bad company with all that enemy damage surrounding it. Perhaps we could see some option in the future that lets us choose what frames the events go to.
in addition, i'd really like to see an option to set the number of events shown within the window and have the ability to set line/icon height.
Would be nice with an option stop it from interfearing with mouse clicks, little annoying not being able to target or loot something that is behind it.
Block menu from frame, either access it from command or throu fubar or something.
And donno if it's possible but would also be very nice with option to split incomming and outgoing in two different frames so they dont bump each other all the time. That would give a tad bit more time to see what happen in the frame before it gets bumped away from sight. Could even have 3 frames with 3rd for unspecified messeges like +/- combat ability gains and such.
Great addon love it so far and haven't recived any bugs from it at all.
Thank you!
It needs a way to be click through. Maybe a fubar lock command, or command line lock, that turns off the right click menu, so when I right click or left click it clicks through, and doesnt bring up a menu.

thanks ;D looks awesome.
I use Bongos, and when changing the color of the redrange in bongos, it changes the color aspects of EavesDrop.
But, changing them in EavesDrop, does not appear to effect Bongos.
Thanks for all the time you put into making our gaming more enjoyable.
- Optional ToolTip Details. Mouse over events to see the exact combat message.
- Locking option for frame.
Lewzephyr, that is strange. I use bongos and am not seeing that. Can you take a screenshot maybe of what you mean?
images gone due to cleanup on my webserver

I know its a bit much to ask, but cheers man :)

² that, wud be awesome
Wow, this was the only thing I missed after playing a while with this great mod.
What do you think about a horizontal layout, scrolling from right to left?
So it may replace the combat log completely for some peoples layouts?
(quickmade draw above^^)
I have a few feature requests:
