About Simple Raid Target Icons

Credits: Brodrick (authoring SRTI until WoW 3.0), Qzot (original concept)

Description: Simple Raid Target Icons (SRTI for short) allows the player to quickly mark raid targets by performing modified clicks or pressing keybind, on the 3D models in the game world.

Features: Shows a radial menu on

  • Single click with configurable modifier (alt, ctrl, shift).
  • Double-click with configurable speed threshold.
  • Keybind to show the radial menu.
  • Preview frame to test the settings.
  • Keybind to apply mark on mouseover. (no menu)
  • Works with nameplate clicking.
  • Works with Target|Focus|BossFrames.
  • (new) Experimental support for non-Blizzard unitframes
    • Target,Focus of some popular addons supported 'out of the box' (STUF, Shadowed, XPerl, Perl, PitBull4)
    • Keybind for power users they can hit once while hovering their custom unitframes to register them with SRTI.
      (mainly as a way to support the myriad oUF* plugins, but other custom UFs might also work)
  • PugLax support for Icon customization (thanks to Virance)
    Allows you to see crowd control assignments on the radial menu. (look at screenshot for example)
    Bring up SRTI options with /srti and tick the PugLax checkbox.

Configuration: /srti

Notes: Version 1.13 is backward compatible with WoW 3.3.5; check "load out of date".

Possible upcoming features
- Temporary keybindings that only work when the radial menu is visible
Example: Ctrl+S shows the menu. Q, W, E, A, D, Z, X, C keys select an icon, S removes the icon, Ctrl+S cancels.

Q&A
Q: What is "Select Icon on Hover"?
A: When the radial menu is shown, you can select an icon by moving your cursor over the icon instead of clicking on it. This can be toggled individually for the three methods for showing the radial menu, as well as a global setting for how long the cursor needs to stay over an icon for it to be selected.

Q: What's the "Test Me" in the options?
A: You can click there to see what effect the options have on the radial menu, and set a virtual raid icon on yourself. The keybinding method also affects the "Test Me" when the options are open.

Q: Why doesn't your addon show a list of the icons on the screen?
A: I wrote this addon because I didn't like those UIs. They took up valuable screen space for an infrequently used tool. I also found the separation of the target and the icons themselves to slow down the whole process.

Q: Can you add something that will let me target an enemy that already has an icon?
A: No, the short answer is Blizzard disabled the ability for addon to do this. There are addons that used to do this, and addons that fake similar features for raid/party members, but it is not actually possible for raid icons unless Blizzard adds it themselves.

    Easiest thing to do to fix this to work for non party leaders in 3.3 is to do a search and replace on SimpleRaidTargetIcons.lua.

    Search for isPartyLeader()
    Replace with true

    Hi,
    There are lots of true isPartyLeader() in the Lua file.

    Do I have to change every "isPartyLeader()" string by "true"?
    Or only change "()" by "true"?

    Thx,

    Change the full string "isPartyLeader()" to "true"

    minus the quotes... There is a lot of functionality that could essentially just be removed from the addon, however this is the easiest way to just get it up and running.

    And yes there are a lot of isPartyLeader checks (all of which are irrelevant now)

    Confirmed this works perfectly.

    open in any text editor and use the find & replace option, once you have replaced all "isPartyLeader()" to "true" (no quotes) save the file and regardless of who is the leader you can set marks with a double click.

    So this still works under 3.2? I hope so! It was my FAVORITE marking addon ever. I love how you don't have to see the icons until you click on something. I find it much more efficient (and less ugly) than just having some bar with all the icons on your screen (with most other marking addons).

    FYI, this still works fine for me under 3.2, for the most part. The only thing I've seen that is buggy is the feature where you can promote another person who is also running the mod as a target-marking assistant. This works great for 5-mans, or even raids IMO, to let people mark targets without you having to give them assist. (Of course, the assitant won't be able to use any macros and key-binds to mark stuff directly, because to the game they don't have the rights to do that, so the mod's menu has to be used. But it's still useful sometimes.)

    Anyway, the issue is that the person who is the assistant sometimes can't remove a mark from *themselves* unless they just give their symbol to another target, which is a work-around. But besides that feature, which most people probably don't even use, it pretty much works still. It's too bad the author won't be doing any updates. I hope someone else picks it up at some point - it's really a neat little mod, and quite - simple! I wonder if there are any other mods that do this. Hm...

    For me it works very well with 3.1

    Perhaps you forgot to ask to use old addons in the addon list.

    Uploaded a new version with the debug line removed. 1.08

    As for your feature request, this is technically not possible. Addons do not know the location of things on your screen, this includes other players (especially not of the other faction). The best I could do is display a raid icon on your cursor when you mouse over someone (which in of itself isn't a bad idea *ponder*). Beyond that, I don't really plan on adding much more functionality to this addon beyond what I have in my "possible features" list.

    Thanks for fixing that line.

    also, D'oh. That would be really nice, but ya, I can't imagine how you would go about adding marks above peoples heads...
