I still use the old CDB for all my characters except my DK (because rune cooldowns cause huge "Spell Ready" spam). I think a simple "don't show cooldowns of less than x seconds" would stop that... unless ofc you know some even better way of distinguishing between rune cooldowns and actual ability cooldowns :)
Oh and pretty please, any chance of having announcement sounds?
currently there is a mostly working copy in branches on SVN. but with NO localization, so that the config ui only shows the ace-locale keys
the last few days i had not that much time due to real life.
if you have a svn client you may want to checkout svn://svn.wowace.com/wow/cooldownbuttons/mainline/branches and test it.
[update - 04.10.09 22:25 CEST]
Just commited a new version to branches, added a lot of localized strings and some changes.
[update #2 - 09.10.09 14:30 CEST]
- added preview mode :)
- made option to change button count working without ui reload (after removing buttons you still should reload ui!)
About Growth Direction, it's impossible to enable Grow from Center like in the old version. Does it will be fixed in the next update ?
Thank You.
Best regards, Jagarema.
yes, the "grow from center" options ins currently disabled, at the moment i have no idea how to implement that, as i use static button positions instead of let the buttons reposition if needed. but grow from center would need the dynamic repositioning. i'm working on possible solutions, but atm there are some RL troubles that i dont have that much time to play/code :/
[update - 14.10.09 20:45 CEST]
- added functionality for "Grow from center" option (currently only for non-multirow bars!)
Your cooldown add on is the most beautiful and simple addon ever.
I hate those cooldowns bars. But my problem is that I cant find a cooldown addon that does what I need.
So, I'd like to request a feature. :p
I have a 17 button mouse, and i dont really need to press any key on keyboard except ASDW keys. But i still have to look down on screen for me to be able to see if my next action is available. There are some few actions that I perform regularly.
At the moment, I use CDB to see when a action becomes available, but the icon soon disapears from my screen... What i do is try to make those 10 icons to be allways on the screen (on cooldown).
My whish is the have an opposite approach to this. I'd like to have a EXPIRED group config, so I can set what spells i'd like to see on that position on screen, but i want to see that icons ONLY if they are in NO cooldown... available for using.
Is that possible?
I have the version that i got from curse.com, dunno if your new version on the SVN is capable of such things.
there is a version 3.1.1 on wowace.com and curse.com! ;)
changes you ask?
- correctly update the cooldown bar when changing some options
- allow "grow from center" if multirow is enabled
- always show rowspacing option
- fix spacing if buttons are sorted vertically
- updated cooldown sets for latest MoP patch
and also, there are preparations for a WoD update.
upcoming changes for WoD:
- update spell cooldownsets for WoD
- update potion cooldown sets
- added cooldownset for healing potions
also there is a new addon i made together with a friend: Tankrage
it adds an advanced ragebar that is split into 5 or 6 (for warriros with glyph of unending rage) small bars each for 20 rage.
for tank specs the first(>=20) and thrid(>=60) part change thier color if they are full to indicate the usability of your defensive cooldowns. the last part starts to glow if the rage goes >=80 (or 100 with glyph) to warn that you are near max and potentially wasting rage if you don't use it soon.
for non-tank specs only the glow effect is active.
I don't use CDB anymore, but I used to back in BC. :)
I filled in most of the Spanish translations for you. However, a few of the phrases were ambiguous (out of context, at least; I didn't install the addon to check the context) so I need clarification on what they mean before translating them:
L["BAR_PREVIEW_DURATION"] = "Preview duration"
Does this mean "preview the duration" (as in, show an example of how the duration will be displayed) or "duration of the preview" (as in, the preview will turn itself off after this amount of time)?
L["BAR_TIMER_DIRECTION"] = "Location"
I'm assuming this is "location of the timer text" but I wanted to double-check since the key says "DIRECTION".
Also, while I filled these in, you may want to switch to using Blizzard's own global strings for channel names, so you don't have to rely on translations:
I didn't translate them (or any of the ones that currently have no English value either) since I'm not sure what they're supposed to say, or if they're even used. I also skipped the ones marked NYI.

Thank you very much, particularly since you are not even using it! <3

Does this mean "preview the duration" (as in, show an example of how the duration will be displayed) or "duration of the preview" (as in, the preview will turn itself off after this amount of time)?
it is the second. how long the preview cooldowns should show (in minutes).

wired. i'll recheck those with the keys as value. the ones without translation are placeholder for descriptions shown in the tooltip. had no idea what to write, but wanted to prepare them in case they would be needed some time in the future
and about the NYI... didn't even knew they where there. :D I'll look into it and check if i can implement the stuff or remove them.
I'll fill in those ambiguous translations tomorrow... if I get started on anything else right now I'll never get to bed, and it's waaaaay past my bedtime, according to the sun shining through my window.
as you suggested i replaced the localozaitons of channel names with thier blizzard constants
also there is a new feature "Hide long cooldowns" (replacing the NYI strings)
and the strings with missing translations where also removed (and i just found a whole new config page that is not yet done... :D) i hope to get some time to finish it soon.

L["CHATPOST_LOCATION_SAY"] --> CHAT_MSG_SAY
L["CHATPOST_LOCATION_YELL"] --> CHAT_MSG_YELL
Finally, I think these were not correctly imported into the localization system, since they're using the key names as the values:
L["COOLDOWN_GROUPS_ADD_ITEM_EXTRA_DESC"] = "COOLDOWN_GROUPS_ADD_ITEM_EXTRA_DESC"
L["COOLDOWN_GROUPS_DESCRIPTION_ITEMS"] = "COOLDOWN_GROUPS_DESCRIPTION_ITEMS"
I didn't translate them (or any of the ones that currently have no English value either) since I'm not sure what they're supposed to say, or if they're even used. I also skipped the ones marked NYI.

Curse PremiumFeel free to use it again. :)
Thank you very much, particularly since you are not even using it! <3
it is the second. how long the preview cooldowns should show (in minutes).
this is the position where the timer text should be shown. like below a button or above.
thank you for your suggestion, i'll update that for the WoD release. :)
wired. i'll recheck those with the keys as value. the ones without translation are placeholder for descriptions shown in the tooltip. had no idea what to write, but wanted to prepare them in case they would be needed some time in the future
and about the NYI... didn't even knew they where there. :D I'll look into it and check if i can implement the stuff or remove them.
again... thank you very much!
Individual icons take up too much space. :(
I'll fill in those ambiguous translations tomorrow... if I get started on anything else right now I'll never get to bed, and it's waaaaay past my bedtime, according to the sun shining through my window.
