Alvara Elite Icon?

Hi,

I would appreciate ANY help with this "Issue".
Since there are several nice themes of the awesome Addon Tidyplates, i'd really like to fully enjoy that Addon. But also I always struggle with choosing between what i like: Alvara Theme, Graphite Theme - or pick Grey or alot of other personally not good looking Themes where i can see an Elite Icon or the Health Percentage.

My Issue here is now, I want to see an Elite Icon on Alvara Theme. How can I eidt those Themes?

Regards,

Varinn

You would have to edit the actual theme file for that to show up (TidyPlatesContinued_Alvara.lua), and then add something like this

Alvara.eliteicon = {
	texture = path.."\\EliteIcon",
	width = 14,
	height = 14,
	x = -51,
	y = 17,
	anchor = "CENTER",
	show = true,
}

You might also have to add the EliteIcon.tga from another themes media folder to Alvara's media folder

Another Question: what do I have to add to the lua to activate the estimated Health option?

commented

I believe something like this would do it

Alvara.customtext = {
	typeface = font,
	width = 90,
	x = -3,
	y = 1.5,
	align = "CENTER",
	shadow = false,
	show = true,
}

Thought all themes supported this already, something to be looked at I guess.

Thank you alot.

This is now part of the latest beta release.

It's nice to see how you work for this addon - i've updated the version and now enjoy the optimized themes of Alvara - BUT - the elite Icon on Graphite is not working for me - i see a green square which is quiet ugly. I already tried to import the eliteicon.lua from other themes but they dont work - i still see a green square. Thank you for your work - can you help me out on this one more time?

commented

Have you restarted the game after updating?
It's about the only reason I can think of it not working.

commented

Glad to see that you havent abandoned the project just because the official is back, its so outdated and missing some neat features you implemented. At least i dont plan to go back to that as long you keep up the amazing work. Thanks.

commented

It worked with a restart of the game - ty - usually /rl worked for nearly everything, thats why i didnt try to restart tho - sorry, good work!

commented

As long as there are no new files added, a simple reload is enough. But if something was added wow needs to be restarted.
