Squared, Textured

About Squared

Squared is a highly-customizable unit frame addon similar to the widely-known WoW addon "Grid". It provides a very compact view of health for you, your group, your warband, or your scenario. Clicking on a square will target the associated player.

Important note for WAR 1.3

If you are having issues with squares not fading for "OUT OF RANGE" targets, please see this thread: http://tinyurl.com/squared1-3

Notes about recent patches

Added in 3.7: Tooltips for units in group/warband mode. Hold down the shift key while mousing over a unit to view its tooltip.

3.6 features a fairly significant optimization for WAR 1.2. I highly recommend upgrading to it for decreased lag when in large groups.

Added in 3.5: Easy exporting and importing of settings. The panel to do so is in the GUI.

Added in 3.4: Toggle/settings button. By default, it's located on the left side of the minimap, but you can move it wherever you wish from the Layout Editor. Left-clicking the toggle button will show/hide Squared (same as changing the "completely disable Squared" setting), while right-click will show/hide the Squared Configurator.

Added in 3.3: Settings profiles. Profiles allow you to keep different sets of settings and swap among them at will. In addition, each character will remember which profile they were using last, and automatically load that profile when logging in to the character.

(For more details all on Squared versions, see the change log.)

Settings

To open the configuration GUI, type /sqr (or /squared).

For command-line config, see the settings page for configuration options (as well as color settings).

If you want to use the settings for one of the user-submitted examples, find the specific one you want in the Squared Image Gallery and click on its name to go to the description page, which will have a Squared Import Format block that you can plug into Squared's Import Settings window.

Reporting bugs and requesting features

While I monitor many difference places, including Curse/CurseForge comments, various forums, and email, I give the highest priority to bugs and feature requests which are posted on the Squared Ticket Tracker on Lighthouse.

Other tools

For click-casting, see SquaredHealBot.

For hiding the default warband frames, I suggest Phantom.

Addon developers interested in developing plugins for Squared should look at the Squared plugin API page.

Miscellaneous

I wasn't going to put up a donation link at first, but enough people have asked/prodded me about it that I figured I might as well. Please, don't feel pressured to donate, I enjoy writing addons just for the sake of helping out, but if you really want to, there's a Pledgie campaign here.

    I have one big problem, I'm not sure if anyone reported the issue. Two problem i have greatly experienced. Im not sure if it a API limitation, I really hope it wasn't. I am using updated Squared and Squared Healbot. Here is two issue:

    1) This problem occur pretty much. I have two player whom I been healing in the WB; Ryhza and StinkShoot. I targeted Ryhza and cast Ey' Quit Bleeding (Shaman healing ability) on her. then pressed and click Ey' Quit Bleeding on StinkShoot. I have two white border on their name box, and I thought I am healing StinkShoot but couldn't see my healing animation on him while I spotted my healing animation on Ryhza. I check my friendly target default frame and found out I am still targetted on Ryhza, it didnt change the target to StinkShoot. The one way to get a target on other player is to click on the screen which make the target disappear then re-target the friendly again and it work. I thought it was the only times it happened but it happens many times on many other player and those player is still brightly green and still in my line of sight and still in range of my Ey' Quit Bleeding abilities. It happens on my other abilities as well. Is there any way you can fix this issue? This happen often

    2) This problem is the same with targeting but differently. There been times that I was under fire by opposing faction. So I cast heal ability on me but every time when I targeted myself and cast something on me, I always get this error "Your Target is not in line of sight". And I checked the default target frame and found that It is already target on myself. So I re-click again then it will execute the ability that I bind it. I have to click on myself twice to get the my spell execute on me. Most of the time, I forgot to click twice on myself and died because of this bug. Any report on this problem?

    I have some usefull idea. U know that, some healer go afk, dont tell it and Ur premades die.

    My idea is: when type something like /afk or after some afk time (5 minuts?) change for example character icon to icon with big "A" or some color changer, ect. It will be great for manage premades

    I have the newest version but the buttons rarely seem to fade when people are out of range. Once I click on them then it greys out. Sometimes it works but rarely. Is this a limit in the WAR API or a squared problem?
    It would be nice if the second someone was out of range it would grey out.
    I find myself doing a guessing game of clicking till i find someone in range.

    API limitation, sadly.

    I just started playing again due to the 10 free days Mythic gave old users. One thing I noticed is that the default UI (at least on the party level) automatically dims the frames when the person is distant.

    Is it now possible to integrate this into the addon or is it something only Mythic can do with their UI?

    How do you move the frame around, i just havn't been able to figure it out...

  • Aiiane said

    Use the Layout Editor to move the Squared Anchor, just as you would move parts of the default UI.

    Are there any plans to add support for the Icons from normal WB list (leader, assists etc) - colors are nice - but the Icons would really be icing on the cake...

  • Aiiane said

    Maybe at some point, but it's not really a priority, since the colors at least work.

    damit i have tried the link supplied and still can't get people to fade out when out of range? what should i do?

  • Aiiane said

    If you mean automatic fading of everyone in the warband when they're not in spellcast range, that's not possible. Auto-fading for the entire warband can only check "too far away"; spellcast/los checks only work for the person you currently have targeted. API limitation.

    Is there a setting I am missing (or AddOn?) that will allow squared to display warband bars the same as the default UI? I do not like having all 4 groups vertical or horizontal, I prefer the group positioning of the default but love the customization of squared.

    You can use the column size and column direction options to arrange groups in a 2x2 layout if you prefer, or similar (which is how the default UI lays them out if not modified).

    Any way to implement a mouse-over info like the original War band layout have where you can see the location of the members?

  • Aiiane said

    Squared already has this - just hold down the Shift key before moving your mouse over them, and a tooltip will pop up. The key-hold is there so that the tooltips don't get in the way of regular play.
