Lots of errors upon login with your latest branch changes adding the "Hide spell" changes.

is there a possibility to add an option that it would show a bar if the cooldown is ready ?
for example if the cooldown of the frost nova + etc is finishes it would shown a still bar at the bottom.
[ xy cooldown counting back ] -- like the original bars
[ xy cooldown counting back ]
[ frost nova ] -- without counting back means the cooldown is ready for use
[ cone of cold ]
it would greatly help the people who arent use action bars ^^

I could see where this is coming from if you updated the addon while logged into WoW and did a UI reload. Because I added some files to .toc, you need to restart the game, that should solve those errors you're seeing.
@Mist
with the Advent of Sink & Soar libs, is it viable to pass SCT support to one of these addons?
I didn't know about those libraries, but yeah, support for Sink would be a good idea. The only problem I see is adding a dependency that the original Hourglass doesn't have, so someone who uses the branch will need to download an extra library (provided he doesn't already have Sink in use).
Does this addon support "grouped CDs"?
What I mean by that is what coolDown does, it groups icons/spells into one bar that also got triggered by the spell/item you just used.
For example, like someone above me mentioned, Fire/Frost Ward.
Here are some more:
- Dragon's Breath/Cone of Cold
- Potions/items that share CD
- Healthstone/Mana Gems
- etc
It does give you a much better overview of your cooldowns.
I recently tried out MazzleUI, which was horrible, but the Hourglass version in that package had the emphasize feature, which wasn't horrible at all.
Then I started looking for that feature in the version of Hourglass I've been using, but to no avail.
Is this feature only in the branch now, and not in the trunk?
In that case, when will it be moved to trunk? I hate having to exclude hourglass from WowAceUpdater every day...
It will never be moved to trunk.. Mist isn't the author, and I dont think he wants to overwrite the original author's code. To exclude it automatically, you could:

Come on, there are only 10 pages of comments, can't you read them? It's not like Bartender's thread where it is 100+ pages long. I'm not trying to be an ass or anything, but yes, if you use SVN, you can download the branch version which has changes by Mist and others that add grouping and a bunch of other features..... I do kinda think that Mist should at least make a fork in trunk, even if he doesn't want to support it, though, as that could eliminate a lot of the questions about how to get the additions.
Ok, tried this for the first time yesterday but keep getting the following error:
[2007/07/30 11:46:27-15-x1]: Hourglass\core.lua:1: unexpected symbol near '{'
---
Basically, I've downloaded Hourglass using WAU, gone to Mist's link on the SVN, opened core.lua, copied and pasted into a new Wordpad document and saved under RTF as 'core.lua'. The file correctly shows as an lua file and I then copy into the Hourglass folder in the addons section. But, as soon as I login Bugsack catches that error and Hourglass won't load.
Anyone got any thoughts on where I might be going wrong?

:D
it seems to be (quite intentionally i think) that there are some ItemCD's that are not yet group'ed at all, like the various health/mana pots that you get randomly.
Mist, im going to over the next few days compile some of the ones i use often and throw up a diff file for you if u would like to put it in :D
Hi I was hoping someone could help me. Mazzle sent me in this direction. I use Mazzle UI obviously lol and I have been getting a problem with Hourglass and I am hoping to rectify it so here it goes. When I change my pet eg from Voidwalker to Imp then to Succubus then when the Pet uses a ability that has a cooldown I end up with the others showing as well eg Phase Shift and Torment showing at the same time. I can fix it by reloading my UI but this is annoying in an Instance. Please help

One thing you might want to change/add is move it over to Sink to allow it to use parrot/etc without having to have special code, I changed mine locally a while back but never got around to saying anything about it, should only need to change the following:
The addon object to include Sink, around line 2ish

and please merge fire ward and frost ward cd : >

FancyHourglass anyone?
I'll see what I can do about forking it into a new addon in trunk, probably within a couple of days. That should make things easier for everybody.
Or Chilly...

You need to download all the files at http://svn.wowace.com/wowace/branches/Hourglass/Mist/Hourglass/ and overwrite the existing files in your Hourglass folder. It's better to not copy&paste, it's more error-prone than just download and overwrite.

Overwrite the files in your Hourglass directory with the files from http://svn.wowace.com/wowace/branches/Hourglass/Mist/Hourglass/ and it should be fine. You will need all the files from this URL, including "Locale-xxXX.lua".
The addon object to include Sink, around line 2ish
Add this line to the last line of the OnEnable around line 340ish(probably higher)
And finally change the Message function to just read:
It should then seamlessly add the options to the Hourglass Dewdrop, assuming I didn't miss a change somewhere:( heh
