Show Nameplate Hit Box

Show Nameplate Hit Box

This AddOn makes the hit boxes of nameplates you choose to show visually distinct.  See the images for previews.

When you choose to show nameplates there is a fixed area that catches mouse clicks for each nameplate.

How does it work?

The AddOn asks to be notified when nameplates are shown.  When a nameplate is created for the first time it is assigned a backdrop image.  When the nameplate is shown the AddOn sets the alpha channel on the backdrop to 1 to make it visible.

Why doesn't it show for friendly players in dungeons or raids?

This is due to a general restriction added by the World of Warcraft developers.
