[CF 410] about monitoring combet logs #432

Closed tmw-issue-import closed 12 years ago

tmw-issue-import commented 12 years ago

is there anyway to setup an announcement on the screen when a certain spell is interrupted.
which needs TMW to monitor the combat information but I am not sure TMW can do it or not?

if yes, could you please teach me how to create such "ICON" or if no, is there any possibility that this could be a up-coming function?

thanks much

This is already possible in the latest alpha version using the "Combat Log Event" icon type. Using the latest alpha (r392, it is important that you are updated to this version due to recent changes), create an icon of that type, set the spell to check to whatever you want to know was interrupted, and set the source/destination units and exclusions if and as desired.

Here is an example. This icon, when imported, will put an announcement in the raid warning frame (but will not be broadcasted to your raid) when someone in your group or yourself was casting greater heal but was interrupted before it finished.

thanks for your reply and now the icon is working however I've got two more questions and need your help

1. I created such an icon to announce a successful interruption, in the announcement I wrote "interrupted %s" when this message showed on the screen, that %s was only replaced with the name of the spell but not a link to the spell(which you can click to see the details of the spell) I'm wondering is there any possibility to ouput a link of a spell, such as [Fear].

2. When this announcement showed on the screen(not raid warning, similar to it but still working when you are alone), the font was too small and I'm wondering does it allow me to customize the font size since I could only customize its color.

thank you very much

Spell links shouldn't be hard to do. I will get it in when I get a chance.

The size is completely subject to what Blizzard has set it to. There may be addons out there that can make it bigger - I know that MoveAnything is able to resize it, but the text may look pixellated and/or the icon might not be aligned correctly with the text.

Added spell link to r396. Let me know if it isn't working. Note that sometimes a link cannot be obtained if the spell in question is not in your spellbook and all that is known about it is its name (without its ID)

thanks much for your update, I didn't expect this would come that quickly again, I'm sorry about still having some problems

I updated TMW to the newest version and when I entered the game, I got this:

Date: 2012-01-08 10:19:56 ID: 1 Error occured in: Global Count: 1 Message: ...ace\AddOns\TellMeWhen\Localization\StaticFormats.lua line 27: bad argument #1 to 'format' (number expected, got string) Debug: [C]: ?

which I never met before this error happened, but anyway I didn't notice any difference when using it so far TMW worked well
