OK... I'm at a loss as to how to configure the latest build. I wiped my SV and addon folder before extracting the multi-module rewrite. There doesn't seem to be any default setup and the Modules pane will take no input whatsoever.
Yeah, I've tried twice to check out the beta but had issues both times. I've made sure all old settings/files were gone before installing the new stuff but no go. I don't get any errors but with the latest build I don't see any texts at all or seem to have the ability to add them on my own even.
For the beta versions there is no "Default" setup yet. To create bars/texts/etc open configuration panel, navigate to "Frames" on the left, type the frame name to the input box on the right and press Enter (or just skip it to use suggested frame name; you always can change it at the later time). Then press one of the buttons below to create frame of the specified type. As soon as you press the button that frame will be created and added as a child to "Frames" on the left.
Cheers for the mod :) been using it for a few weeks now (the last of the v1 generation though). I have not looked too deeply into the v2 as of yet as from what I remember the borders on the bars can't be disabled for now?
Anyway, just thought I would post a slight issue I am having with v1 and its to do with the strata levels of the bars upon initial log in. (might be easier if you look at my youtube ui quickee, did it for guildies as they wanted to see my interface working - if you see the HDef link below the video, use it, its 100 times better).
Basically the mana/power bars are set for the lowest strata so they appear something like this (from lowest to highest)
power bar -> unit portrait -> health bar -> unit texts
however, when I log in the order ends up being something like..
unit portrait -> health bar -> power bar -> unit texts
to fix that I gotta open the config and flick the strata of the power bars for each frame to high level and back to low level again.. tis then fine for the rest of the time while I am logged in. Is there a way to fix this or am I missing something simple? :)
Final request though, a option to totally turn off any bar borders would be great.. got some cust bar textures I am probably going to use soon but I still hve the one pixel thick black line on the bars showing :/ (or is it easy to find this bit of code in the lua to disable the border? :) )
@Morgalm: Unfortunatelly no :( The core implementation is changed too much, so I was forced to change the way settings are stored :( I'm sorry about that.
@Morgalm: It takes me only 10 minutes to reconstruct my full layout from scratch :) [humor on]Since you are not as smart as me :) :) :) and you have not created like 50 layouts manually, I estimate that it will take you much more. Say, 15 minutes?[humor off]
Seriously, the main problem with layout construction in UH 1.x was that you have to manually adjust each frame. Now you have "snap to" feature so you don't have to adjust X and Y pixel-by-pixel. It's really easy, trust me.
Guys, I've just created a poll on project's main page for turning off borders. Go there and vote, and if enough of you vote for it - I'll add an option to hide borders. But it will look ugly. UGLY! You are warned.
P.S. Remember, I'd warned you!

To be honest Id be happy with being able to set their size. I have a couple of small bars (see picture) and with the border I dont like the look at all.
A simple 1 pixel wide black border would be lovely.
I think that it is a good idea Anadale.
I think also that the best option is to can choice the valor of the border.
For example 0 to 10, 0 is hide and 10 is the maximum width. Could be, that someone want a thickness border.
I try parent the frames created with underhood with eepanels.
The problem is that it is not posible, when I used in chat windows "/print GetMouseFocus():GetName()" over any frame, bar,... created with uh, the result is always the same "nil"
¿ Do you know if is posible parent the underhood frames with eepanels panels?
Andale: the "ghost bars" problem in the previous version has not reoccured yet. So good work! :D
One question -- I'd post a ticket if I knew it wasn't me being dense.
Is it... not possible now to enter custom dog tags? The text area is grey and I can't click in it, and none of the dropdowns appear to be labeled "Custom".
It's killing me to not be able to reproduce my old setup.
@diewolf: As I've said in project comments - frames are created dynamically, so they do not have names and there is no guaranty that player power frame will stay player power frame after ui reload. So the answer is "no" now.
@kyth: Select category "None".
@diewolf: If you'll look in the project comments you'll find a piece of code that you can use to access real frame by it's name. Have fun, but be careful!

Reverting back to previous state.

By the way, Happy New Year to everyone. And my thanks to those who use UH :-)

It's more than a bit counterintuitive about how to make a bar horizontal however, relative to other huds =).
However, I too really dislike the inability to turn off the border.
Here is the link.
