Certainly stands out, doesn't it?

CoolerMaster

Warning
This addon is on hold indefinitely. The current version does not work correctly.

What?
Turns your action bars into a cooldown tracker by switching the alpha of action buttons that are on cooldown. Options are easy to change: just open up CoolerMaster.lua and edit away.

Why?
Having recently revamped my UI with some experimental features, I needed a good cooldown tracker. I already use my action bar primarily for checking cooldowns (another addon takes care of the binds). The advantage this has over specific cooldown tracking addons is that you can always expect to find a cooldown in the same place, so you won't waste precious time sorting through a list of items.

Of course, it's assumed that you'll use this with OmniCC.

To Do

Support action bar addons
Allow ignoring certain buttons for alteration
Fix paging
Make "normal" action buttons click-through

Etc.
Any critique on code is welcome, as this is my first real addon. On another note, a big thank you goes out to the incredibly helpful citizens of #wowuidev.

However, I'm even happier to see that Yourstruly has made his own . If it turns out to be fully working with everything I couldn't get CoolerMaster working with, you can consider this addon cancelled. Which is great news to me . Thanks, Yourstruly. __________________ Blog

I was looking for something like this because I don't want to add more on my screen than I already have. Sad you gave up on it so I just had to code my own :P __________________ ...

Same here, but here's a mod i found that does the exact opposite instead (fading when it's ON cooldown instead of OFF cooldown)

As such, this addon is on hold indefinitely. If you're a developer and like the idea, please feel free to run with it. I'd be happy to see a correct implementation, and according to the comments, others would too.

Just did the same.

Waiting for Bartender4-support. Then I'm definitely going to try this out...

Same.

That Bartender4 + Paging support is really crucial for this addon to become popular, but when you've fixed that, i sense that then, this addon would have the potential of great future

shkm A Flamescale Wyrmkin Forum posts: 149 File comments: 79 Uploads: 5	Thank you, Ferous. Currently the addon is working partially in Dominos because Dominos already reuses Blizzard's action bar code. There are a few errors in CoolerMaster code that Dominos has outlined (in regard to classes with stances) which I'll get round to fixing in the coming days. __________________ Blog Last edited by shkm : 11-03-2009 at 09:41 PM.
