Digits 1.0.3 - 27 March 2009
Digits is a numeric head-up display of health and power (mana/rage/energy/runic). When you enter combat it will appear, and when you leave combat it will hide.
If you want to contact me about Digits
Comments, feature suggestions, and bug reports are very welcome! Based on experience over the past year, I just don't check comments here at Curse, though. You can conact me:
- By email: satrina@evilempireguild.org
- By leaving a comment at the wowinterface project for Digits
Version 1.0.3
- Just a really small update for Digits. I have confirmed that you do get better accuracy in combat if an update is forced rapidly, rather than waiting for events to fire saying that health/power are updated. So, Digits now updates every 0.25 seconds while in combat.
Configuration:
- Open up the Interface panel, it's in the AddOns list (/digits is a shortcut)
- Press buttons, slide sliders.
- While the interface frame is open, the digits displays get pushed to the top of the UI frame order and are draggable to wherever you want them to be.
Q&A
- Q: Can you put a bar in?
- A: Say it with me: "numeric head-up display"
- Q: Can you put a bar in?
Q: Can I make the font bigger than 35?
A: Sadly, no. That seems to be a hard limit. Even increasing the scale doesn't work.
Q: How do I get more fonts to choose from?
A: Digits uses the SharedMedia library, so the fonts you get from whatever other addons you have that use it will all be available.
Q: Why not bars anyway?
A: I am one of those (apparently very rare) people who get no useful information in any way from a status bar that is used to show a quantity. On the other hand, I can observe a number in my peripheral vision and parse it without having to pay full attention to it. So, I make things without bars. It doesn't cost me anything to make the addon publicly available, so if other people who also like not-bar displays find my stuff useful, then I'm glad I can help.
