I would like to get this module to work, but I can't.
What would be awesome, is that there is a border between the deficit and max on the health bars, indicating how much the incoming heals will heal for.
Pretty much like shown in here: http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/info7666-GridStatusIncomingHealth.html
I don't think GridStatusIncomingHeals has the functionality to display the amount of incoming heals as shaded health bar. Plus, I didn't even know there's a GridStatusIncomingHealth (I wonder why these two modules aren't merged).
Uhm, I made the GridStatusIncomingHeals module mainly as an extension to the normal IncomingHeals addon, and it's main functionality is to add a numerical indicator showing how much is people going to get healed for, using it as something else but a text-indicator I hadn't really concidered much yet :)
The reason why I made my addon was that I didn't know GridStatusIncomingHealth existed, does it not work for you Acarya? I'm not 100% sure of exactly what you're asking for, but I can try to add it if it's within my reach as a coder :)
Thank you for your answers Maia and wT.
I got GridStatusIncomingHealth to work when soloing, but it gave me about 900 errors in bugsack when doing 1 Eye of the Storm, in addition to making some squares totally green or red with no text. However, I see a lot of potential in this module, and merging it with GridStatusIncomingHeals, would just be, well, totally awesome. :)

Thing is I have name as text1 and deficit,offline warning and death warning as text2.
This doesn't give me much room for an numerical estimation of incoming heals but a health bar border that's faded is ideal, giving me a quick visual impulse to decide whether or not I am focusing on that target.
I am gonna post Julith that you are up to adding GSIHealth to your project. :)
Commited a fix to silly bug and option to hide your own heals now.
I was trying to add some coloring to the indicators earlier today, but my initial try at it resulted in massive bloated non-working piece of junk so I need to look at it again :)
Someone has to tell me that there is a topic about my mod in this forum xD
If we want to merge GSIHeals and GSIHealth I would need a SVN account at wow-ace at first (I requested one 4 days ago, didn't get an answer by now). Or I would have to send every change I would like to make to wT xD
But in general I would have no problem with merging both of them. Then I could focus myself at the ExtraBar which is not a Grid-State and should not be added to the merge.
I don't mind merging the two addons at all, I made this addon initially out of need for IncomingHealsLib interface for Grid which is used by most of my guilds healers, if there's other people also interested then cool.
Better not clutter up the SVN with near-identical addons anyway.
I'll try to PM you in the following days Julith regarding the addons.
By the way, at the moment I'm trying to hack in together a PerfectRaid module/plugin/whateveryoushouldcallit for IncomingHeals ;)
Hey Julith, I gave your addon a try today. The only problem I could see is that it changes the colors of my health bars to black instead of the class colors that Grid is setup to use.
GridStatusIncomingHealth is only one part of my addon. It only provides the Health + incoming health as status to Grid. If you want to have the faded bar behind the healthbar you will need "ExtraBar". The zip-files at wow-interface of my addon includes both addons. But since I got my svn-account just yesterday I could only upload GSIHealth by now. (Blame my guild mades who needed a Healer :)
I'm not quite shure why I divided it in two seperate addons. But this way it will be easier to merge GSIHeals+GSIHealth, I think.
I was using ExtraBar, but it still changed the color of my Grid health bars to black. Also, you need to set up IncomingHealsLib as an external, unless you have already done so.
GSIHealth has it as external. Extrabar does not require it.
Please check to which status your healthbar is regisered. It should not be registered to IH:Health. And extrabar should only be registered to IH:Health.
If they then still turn black I need to know at which moment they turn black (the moment you logg in or just if a heal is incoming for example).
Ok, gave it another try. WAU is still not pulling down IncomingHealsLib, I had to install it separately.
Anyway, the bars are still black. The are black immediately upon logging in. I have all the settings correct. I noticed that when I toggled off IH:Health in ExtraBar I got my correct colors back again. Toggling it on made my health bar black again. It seems to me that the ExtraBar is being applied over my Grid health bar instead of behind it.
Very strange. What happens if somebody loses some health? can you see the background? or does it still stays full black? DO you have any other Grid addons installed?
Gave this another go, I was still getting the black health bars. So I deleted my Grid saved variables. The bar was then the right color, but the module did not work. I inverted the bar colors and it worked. Does this addon only work when inverted bar colors is on?
I would like to get this module to work, but I can't.

None of these seem to work with what I am trying.
Any help is welcome.
Thanks,

Here's a crappy and too big screenshot showing too much irrelevant stuff:

I'll upload ExtraBar as soon as I find some time.

The new Version should work now (I hope xD )
there is no extra bar shown when healing a pet. Not yet implemented or a bug?
Elbereth.
It looks like this guy is having similar issues:
http://www.wowace.com/forums/index.php?topic=9384.0
But for me, the bars are only black when IHealth is enabled.
Don't know if it will help solve the problem, but I will attach my saved variables also.
Determination doesn't say anything about GSIHealth so I think this is a different problem.
