Enhancing Dominos with other addons

Changing the Look of Action Buttons

You can change the looks of the action buttons in Dominos using an addon called Button Facade. A wide variety of styles are available for the addon.

rActionButtonStyler is a nice alternative to Button Facade.

Out of Range Coloring

Ever want the entire button to become red when the skill associated it is out of range? Look no further than RedRange. RangeColors has been suggested as a nice alternative.

Cooldown Count

My own addon, OmniCC, will display text on your action buttons display exactly when the ability will be ready to use. Cooldown Count is a well known alternative.

Buff and Debuff Highlighting

Inline Aura What this addon does is add a green border around buttons that contain buffs that you currently have on yourself, or a friendly target. It also displays a purple border around debuffs you've cast on an enemy target. In addition, it can display aura durations, like cooldown count type addons do for timers.

Proc Borders allows you to highlight an action whenever you have a certain buff up. Its great if you want, for example, to have Shadow Bolt to be highlighted when Shadow Trance is up.

Bindings

SnowFall KeyPress and Speedy Actions allow you to execute actions when you press a key, instead of on release.

Link for RedRange? provides Internal Server Error. I can't find it with some googling, although I only spent a few minutes on it. Currently using BT4 which I don't like as much as BT3 or Dominos because Dominos lacks this feature.

Why can't i get my chat windows to work with dominos??? I disable the mod and i can move adjust my chat windows. When I enable the mod I can't do anything with my chat windows. is there something I need to adjust. Have tried deleting all the WTF files as well and just do dominos and that still doesn't work. Please help!!!

Dominos has nothing to do with your chat windows.

I am seeing an issue with Debuff Highlighting, It appears that dots/curses from other warlocks are highlighting on my bars, so I can no longer tell which ones I have laid down.

Comment by j85ason, Oct 16, 2008

out of curiosity, do those debuffs have cooldown models displayed on them?

Comment by cjose...@comcast.net, Oct 16, 2008

I do recall being able to see cooldown timers on the mobs debuff icons for the other warlock's curses, possibly even the debuffs that were not from my class. Can't seem to find a group now to verify.

Comment by syntobu, Oct 16, 2008

I can verify that other player's debuffs are causing debuff highlighting to turn on. These debuffs do show up with cooldown counts.

Comment by syntobu, Oct 16, 2008

I opened up a bug report on the debuff thing, which is what you should do if you find something else not working right. A bug report is much more likely to be read and delt with than a comment on a random page.

Comment by badgob, Oct 17, 2008

I also noticed when dueling another paladin that his seals that he cast upon himself were showing up highlighted green on my bars while I had him targeted, thus obscuring which seal I had cast upon myself.

Comment by al1843, Oct 18, 2008

No matter what I choose for the QuickMove?? key (normally I use shift), all of the buttons on my bars remain unlocked, as in I can move them accidentally without holding a modifier. Any way to fix this?

Comment by j85ason, Oct 18, 2008

al1843: Dominos uses the blizzard setting for lock action buttons (called lock action bars by them). You need to check that setting.

Comment by wings2004, Oct 19, 2008

Just wondering, but currently I can't press alt and the key binding to self cast (I checked that in wow interface) but when I'm not targeting someone it auto self casts to me. Is this a problem with dominos or something that I should start looking at my interface for?

Comment by j85ason, Oct 20, 2008

I would check to see if you have something bound to alt + key.

Comment by riskfactorblarg, Oct 20, 2008

I'm trying to use another person's code for making the CTRL key a universal mouseover key. Their code is base don the blizzard action bars, and they said that to work with other action bars, I would need to know the name used. I looked over the code in Dominos briefly and to what minimal level I can understand it, but I don't think my guess is correct, since it doesn't work (already checked that no CTRL bindings interfere in Blizzard bindings).

Could I ask for the names of the bars? I tried using what appear to be names for the buttons, not bars: ActionButton?, BonusActionButton?, MultiBarRightButton?, MultiBarLeftButton?, MultiBarBottomRightButton?, MultiBarBottomLeftButton?. These were passed as parameters into:

for ,bar in pairs{...} bar:SetAttribute?(TARGET_STRING, 'mouseover') end

Thanks.

Comment by j85ason, Oct 21, 2008
Dominos.ActionBar:ForAll(function(bar)
	bar.header:SetAttribute(TARGET_STRING, 'mouseover')
end)
Comment by riskfactorblarg, Oct 21, 2008
local TARGET_STRING = 'ctrl-unit*'
Dominos.ActionBar:ForAll(function(bar)
        bar.header:SetAttribute(TARGET_STRING, 'mouseover')
end)

Unfortunately, this did not work for me. I've tried with other keys that also don't work, so it isn't a binding interference issue.

Comment by R26Otacon, Oct 21, 2008

I have a question. I have a rogue and I wanna setup action Bar 1 to be Posessed and changed to action bar 8 Whenever I activate my ability "Shadow dance" Is this possible? Hopefully I worded that correctly.

Comment by oli...@astro.ufl.edu, Oct 22, 2008

Simple question ... I put something in a button position and now I want to return that position to empty ... I can not figure how to do this.

Comment by j85ason, Oct 23, 2008

r26: wait for a blizzard fix for this one. oli: same way you would in the stock interface: Either unlock button positions, or hold the quick move key (shift by default) and drag the button off.

Comment by R26Otacon, Oct 23, 2008

what do you mean wait for a blizzard fix? Shadow dance dosent page a bar normally but I wanna make it do so. Do you mean its not possible?

Comment by j85ason, Oct 24, 2008

I mean its not possible and that word on the street is that Blizzard is going to make it recognized as a stance. Otherwise, its impossible to change what buttons a bar displays based on buffs.

Comment by cecil2...@aol.com, Nov 26, 2008

I am on my third run of adjusting my dominos as i learn new things, its a great addon and i love it. i was wondering if there is a way to make a bar appear when my health is low? i run a hud addon called icehud also and would like my heal spells to apear in a different bar next to my life bar i have next to my life bar but only be visible when my life is low. thanks for the help. also have a few i want visible only when mana is low, thanks again

Comment by j85ason, Nov 26, 2008

I cannot make a bar appear when your hp is low due to a limitation enforced on blizzard's end.

Comment by DallasisaLeo, Apr 19, 2009

The newest download of Dominos doesn't include Dominos_Buff?. Why is that?

Comment by j85ason, Apr 19, 2009

Because inline aura does a better job at this point in time.

Comment by hm...@bellsouth.net, May 03, 2009

is it possible to have a complete description of a spell show up when i cursor over the button? For example, when cursoring over flash of light, to have it show how much healing is done and mana cost?

Comment by j85ason, May 03, 2009

do you mean to display action button tooltips? because it should be doing that right now.

Comment by Desmock, Oct 14, 2009

I'm having the same problem as hm...@bellsouth.net, tooltip not displaying when mouseover on a button in the actionbar.

Comment by ashragnarok, Nov 30, 2009

I am using rActionButtonStyler with Domino the only issue is that the styling won't work on the totem bars

I have read the comments of rActionButtonStyler, the addon author simply doesn't play a shaman, can anything be done for styling the totem bars?

I did try to do it myself, but simply becoz the action buttons are not like those of pet action bar / shapeshift. I don't know what to do with my limited addon knowledge..
