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.

    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.

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

    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.

    Could it be there is a problem with halting further event processing after calling a registered event handler? Example:
    function XYZ(group, member, modifier) d(group) d(member) d(modifier) return false end Squared.RegisterEventHandler("unitrclick", XYZ)
    The group context menu still appears. Sry for not using the ticket system, I wouldn't want to make an lighthouse acc for just one ticket.

    Hi Kenh - you're actually supposed to return true if you want event processing to halt. :) Returning false tells Squared to keep processing other handlers. That's why it's not working for you, you just got the values backwards. :)

    well, I tried around with the three mentioned returns & copy the last try. Result ist the same for true, though. -.-

    I cannot open the setting while in-game. The mod is working. I have tried /sqr and /squared.

    Is there anyway to reposition where the squared frames are? I've looked high and low and, for the life of me, I cannot figure out how to move the frames around.

    Use the warhammer interface management system to move the frames around

    Is there a way to make it show my party, but ONLY my party even in a WB and SC? I'm only concerned with my party for Guard purposes, I don't need to see everyone else. Thank you if there is.

    Should individual summoning stones work with Squared? When I activate one of my stones (and get the pointer) and then click on the person in Squared, nothing happens.

    Hm, they should work... have you tried using the right-click menu instead? (Right-click, then select Summon Player or w/e it is...)

    heres a question i'm sure is answedes somewhere in the 74 pages of comments, but i couldn't find it in the first 15 :) i seem to remember being able to map spells in squared and just hold down shift, alt or CTRL while klicking on party/warband members insted of klicking that and then whatever heal i needed. did Mythic ban that sort of key mapping or did you just get rid of it? because i really liked that one :(

    That's always been provided by various external plugins for Squared - I believe the current favorite is SquaredHealbot: http://war.curse.com/downloads/war-addons/details/squaredhealbot.aspx

    First of all, thanks for this great addon.
    I'm currently having a problem with Squared where some people in the warband will show up as dead even though the are alive standing right next to me. A few of my fellow guildies are having the same problem.
    Is there a solution to this?
