[Request] In combat no fade, out of combat fade

Hi there,

Great addon ! I really love what you did with names-only mode.

Here is a suggestion, unfortunately I did not achieve to configure it on my own, maybe there is a way to do so, but I didn't find it.

I just want to display at all time, combat and out of combat, enemy plates.
When I enter combat, there is only the target that is displayed with no fading. It's very annoying and confusing, we can't follow what happen to other target (stuns, cc, dots) ...
I did configure my KUi AND my wow UI to always display names but still not the results I wanted.

To make things clear, here is two screenshot of my current situation :
wowscrnshot_090616_202735

wowscrnshot_090616_202730

Wow config : display all nameplates, display ally names and enemy names, CTRL+V : all plates activated.

KUI config :

KuiNameplatesCoreSaved = {
    ["profiles"] = {
        ["default"] = {
            ["fade_alpha"] = 0,
            ["font_size_small"] = 12,
            ["nameonly_target"] = false,
            ["execute_colour"] = {
                1, -- [1]
                1, -- [2]
                1, -- [3]
            },
            ["font_size_normal"] = 14,
            ["target_glow_colour"] = {

            ["fade_untracked"] = true,
            ["colour_neutral"] = {
                0.792156862745098, -- [1]
                0.6, -- [2]
                0, -- [3]
            },
            ["bar_texture"] = "Minimalist",
        },
    },
}


KuiNameplatesCoreSaved = {
    ["profiles"] = {

            },
            ["castbar_height"] = 6,
            ["colour_player"] = {

                0.4, -- [2]
                0.705882352941177, -- [3]
            },
            ["fade_avoid_execute_hostile"] = true,
            ["fade_avoid_execute_friend"] = true,
            ["execute_auto"] = false,
            ["classpowers_size"] = 12,
            ["fade_untracked"] = true,
            ["colour_neutral"] = {
                0.792156862745098, -- [1]
                0.6, -- [2]
                0, -- [3]
            },
            ["bar_texture"] = "Minimalist",
        },
    },
}

tldr; I want that the configuration I get out of combat stays the same in combat.

Thanks for the detail. It's a breath of fresh air, honestly.

Anyway, you have /knp > general > faded alpha set to 0. This means when you have a target, everything else gets faded out. You want to set to... Well, anything but 0.

If you want friendly nameplates to be able to fade to 0, that's relegated to #75.

Well ... I think you missed my point.

I configured the addon so I am very pleased how it works out of combat.
WHY does it only shows the target enemy nameplate healthbar in combat mode ? As it's configured, it's perfect out of combat. I just want consistency when I enter combat and show every enemy healthbars.

I want to see friendly names like I did configure them in WoW (only quest NPC and enemies), even in combat (and especially in combat). It was perfect back when "names-only" did not exist.

I answered this. Because you have "faded alpha" set to 0. But I understand you have it set to 0 in order to hide friendly frames. Like I said, that is a distinct issue: #75.

Ok, thanks for the explanation. I just don't understand why it changes when I enter combat. Is this something blizzard-related ?
Anyway, once your secondary value will be up, I won't never, ever go back to anything else but your addon. I convinced most of my guild members to use it ;).
