My User Interface

The GarUI

Update – December 22nd, 2011: Garwulf Hunter UI is back on WoWInterface! Please feel free to refer to the download page on WoWI for additional information and instructions.

The Gar UI is nothing more than a compilation of addons that I configured to be pleasing to the eye, and to suit my play style. All credit for this custom user interface goes to the respective addon developers.

Resolution: 1920×1200 (those of you running a different resolution will have to adjust, sorry)

Memory usage: Less than 10MB

Known Issues: None that I’m aware of.

Basic Installation Video

Installation

Download the UI compilation here (10.8mb download).
Backup your existing Interface and WTF folders. Rename your existing WTF and Interface folders to: WTF-backup & Interface-backup. If you decide to revert back to your old UI, just delete the GarUI Interface, Textures and WTF folders and rename yours back to WTF and Interface. This is very important, should you decide that you want to chuck my UI and go back to what you were using.
Unzip the GarUI package. Drag the contents (Interface, Textures, WTF) into your World of Warcraft root directory.
- PC: C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft
- Mac: Macintosh HD/Applications/World of Warcraft
Open up the WTF folder and drill down through the files, renaming the appropriate files as you go.
- Rename YOURACCOUNTNAME to your account name, ie: IPWNNOOBZ247.
- Rename Your Server to the server name which hosts the character(s) you want to apply this UI to, ie: Bleeding Hollow.
- Rename the Character folder to the name of your character for which you’d like to apply this UI compilation, ie: Gnomepunter.
  - If you want to restore your in-game settings, ie: audio & video settings, camera & mouse settings, etc, then copy the Config.wtf from your WTF-backup and paste it into your new WTF root folder. Be sure to leave the backup folder intact, so make sure to copy & paste.
Log in to your WoW account.
Click on the Addons button to go to the addons screen. Check “Load out of date AddOns”.
Log in with your character.
Panic! He, he… actually don’t panic. Your screen will probably look pretty catawampus once you login. This is normal.

To unf**k everything, just type in: /reflux switch GarUI (case sensitive)
Your UI should now look something like this…

The first thing you’ll need to do is set your keybindings. As you can see, only two action bars are visible, which means this layout is heavily dependent upon keybinds. Sorry clickers, but this UI will probably not work so well for you.
Type in /bt4 to open up the Bartender4 configuration screen.

Macros

Macros are supposed to be stored server-side, but in the event that your macros are missing after the installation, just restore them by dragging in copies of the macros-cache.old & macros-cache.txt files in your backed up WTF folder.

Your global macros are stored in: WTF/Account/YOURACCOUNTNAME/

Character specific macros are stored in: WTF/Account/YOURACCOUNTNAME/Server Name/Character/

Configuring the Keybinds

This UI uses a total of six action bars. 1 and 2 are visible, 3-5 are set to hidden, and bar 6 is available on hover-over while out of combat (as is the Micro Menu).

In my setup, I have keybinds assigned to bars 1, 3, 4, 5, and 6. Bar 2 is used primarily to display information such as cooldowns, item counts, etc. Bars 3, 4, and 5 (which are hidden) are where most of my heavily used abilities are located.

Once you’re at the configuration screen for Bartender4 (after typing: /bt4), follow these steps to see what I have going on…

Uncheck the Lock option to see where all of the bars are located.
Click on the number of the bar you want to make visible.
Uncheck the “Always Hide” option.

Once you’ve done that, you can now lock the bars and exit the config screen. Now that the bars are set to be visible, you can drag your skills and macros over to them.
After you’ve placed all of the needed abilities into your action bar slots, now it’s time to begin the keybind process. Bartender4 makes this very easy.
Type in: /kb
Hover over the action bar button you want to keybind and then press the key(s) you want to use to access that button. If the button has a keybind associated with it already, then click Esc to clear it.
Once you’re done setting up your keybinds, click Okay.
Now you can go back into the Bartender4 config area and set the bars to hidden once again.

There will likely be some things which will need adjusting to better suit your needs and taste, so have at it.

If your resolution is not set at 1920×1200, then you’re most definitely going to need to adjust the layout a bit. I suggest using the UI Scale adjustments in-game. You may also need to unlock and reposition some of the various addons.

In addition to the action bars, another first order of business would be to possibly adjust my Power Auras. You may be wondering what the little white star is in the center of your screen… That’s an aura I have configured to display when I’m not in Aspect of the Dragonhawk.

If you wish to change this aura or any of the others, just type: /powa. This will take you to the Power Auras config screen. From there, just click on the auras you want to play with and click Test. If you want to change anything, click Edit and go nuts.

Moving and adjusting the background KG Panels

While not extremely sophisticated, the background panels offer a nice spit and polish to the UI. My purpose for using them is to give the UI some consistency and finish.

Now… if you need to resize, move them, or just make adjustments of any kind, this is a fairly easy task…

Type in: /kgpanels config

This will bring you to the kgPanels config screen (duh…). Anyway, once there you can access the properties of my various panels by looking under Active Layout. Each panel has an identifying name, but if there are any you’re unsure of, just unlock them and they’ll appear highlighted on hover-over.

You can drag the corners of the frames to resize them, drag the whole frame to reposition, or use the absolute numeric controls in the config area. Since all of my frames are anchored and parented, you need not mess with them if you only want to reposition things. The panel will stay attached to the addon if you unlock the addon and drag it around your screen.

One last thing… if you want to create a new panel or re-parent an existing one, then you’ll need to know the name of the addon frame which it is to be parented and anchored to.

This is accomplished by creating a macro with the following command:

/script ChatFrame1:AddMessage(“You are hovering over frame: ” .. GetMouseFocus():GetName())

Place this macro on an action bar, then tap its key as you over over the addon you want to place a panel behind. The name of the panel will appear in the chat screen, but only to you, so don’t worry about accidentally spamming guild or trade chat with it.

Once the name of the addon frame is displayed, you can then input that info into the parent and anchor fields for that particular kgPanel. This will then attach the panel to the addon. This is what I’ve done in order to have my Recount and Omen frames disappear when the addons are not in use.

Raid

Battleground

Arena

Addons Used in the Compilation

AzCastBar – A modular cast bar addon. AzCastBar lets you configure all sorts of things, including: cast bars, cooldown timers, buff & debuff timers, etc…
Bagnon – An inventory management addon. Configure the look and size of your bag and bank inventory displays. Also allows searching of inventory across all characters.
Bartender4 – A modular and highly configurable action bar replacement addon.
ButtonFacade – This addon allows for custom skinning of the action bar buttons and buff icons.
ButtonFacade: Apathy – The button skin of choice for me.
Chatter – A highly configurable but lightweight chat enhancement addon.
Chinchilla Minimap – Customize your mini map display. Resize it, move it, change the shape, clean it up, whatever…
ColorTools – An enhancement to the default color picker. ColorTools adds many useful tools for the OCD UI creator, including: an RGB color palette, a hex code edit window, and an opacity slider with numeric value input.
Deus Vox Encounters – Raid warnings, enrage timers and the like.
eAlign – Calls up a grid overlay which you can use to arrange your various addons in perfect symmetry.
KgPanels – I use this addon to create the nice unified look I have across the bottom, as well as for the nice gradient background behind my buffs.
MikScrollingBattleText – A highly configurable and customizable replacement for the default combat text.
NeedToKnow – Configurable timer bars you can use for: cooldowns, DoTs, buffs, debuffs, and more..
Omen Threat Meter – Tells you when to Feign Death.
OmniCC – A simple cooldown monitor. Places a configurable timer over your action bar buttons, letting you know the remaining time on your cooldowns.
Power Auras Classic – An awesome addon that can be used for a number of things. I use it for buff and cooldown alerts, warnings, etc… See this post for more info on what Power Auras is all about.
RangeDisplay – Provides a configurable yet simple range display.
Recount – My damage meter of choice.
SatrinaBuffFrame – A highly customizable addon for displaying buffs and debuffs.
Shadowed Unit Frames – A highly customizable unit frame addon.
ShadowedUF Trinkets – A plugin for Shadowed Unit Frames which allows for the display of opponents’ PvP trinket status. It can be configured to show on any and all frames, including: arena, target, party, focus, etc…
SharedMedia – Share textures between various addons.
SLDataText – Super simple and lightweight addon for displaying textual information such as: gold, bag space, durability, zone text, coordinates, framerate, latency, and more…
Tekticles – This addon changes all in-game fonts to calibri, cabri italic, calibri bold, or calibri bold italic. It’s a very efficient way of cleaning up the in-game text, just so long as you’re a fan of Calibri.
TipTac – Adds customizable tooltip enhancements.

Other Addons I Use (not included in the UI download)

_NPCScan – Addon used for auto-detecting rare mobs. If you’re not familiar with it, see this post for more info. The post is a bit dated, but the basic idea behind the addon is still the same.
_NPCScan.Overlay – This adds a configurable overlay to the in-game maps. This works similar to Gatherer, but for rare spawns. I have it configured to only display on my zone map.
Atlasloot Enhanced – Browsable in-game item database. Check out loot tables, craftable items and enchants, reputation rewards, PvP rewards and more…
AuctionLite – This is a lightweight alternative to other auction house addons. AuctionLite does everything you need it to with less than half the fat of other auction house addons.
Gatherer – Keeps track of mining nodes, herbs, & treasure chests, and records their locations on your game map(s).
GoGoMount – Automagically selects the fastest possible mount for your current location. Also randomizes them so you never know what ya gonna get.
Postal – Adds some mail enhancements to the in-game postal system.
RatingBuster – Adds class and talent-specific info to item tooltips. RatingBuster is handy for comparing stats when determining upgrades.
SellJunk – Vendor all of your gray items with one click!

I also want to recognize Halcyone for creating some wonderful textures for KgPanels. The Hal border was the perfect finishing touch for my UI.

To maintain this addon compilation, I highly recommend the use of a client such as the ones that Curse and WoWInterface offer. It is very important to keep all of these addons updated with the latest versions in order to keep things running smoothly and efficiently. An addon manager like the Curse Client makes this task a snap.

Please use the comments area below to post questions and comments about the UI. I’ll be updating this page with additional info and tips, but in the meantime, your questions and comments will help me to create a FAQs section.

I also encourage you to support the real heroes – the addon developers. Just click on any of the links above to visit the various addon download pages, and you’re likely to find some Donate buttons.

Hey Gar,

Along with everyone else, and being a loyal Gar UI user for my various toons, I’m anxiously awaiting this release. However going over your last UI related posts, SexyCooldown is notably absent from the list. Surprising, given you just recently reviewed it….

Did it not play well with others? or did you elect something better?

2 Garwulf May 1, 2010 at 11:08 am

Yea, that was kind of a last minute decision, and one I’m going to go over in a post.

Long story short… SexyCooldown looks great and looks…well… sexy, but after using it for several weeks I decided to boot it.

I found myself not paying attention to it much apart from when I wasn’t busy fighting. So, I elected to revisit NTK and configure only an ICD timer. It has a much smaller footprint and is easier to monitor during the chaos of a raid.

I still think SexyCooldown is an awesome addon and I’ll likely use it on some of my alts.

Hey,
I absolutely love the ui and think it is the beezneez, with so much room to see what your playing but what about the dbuf uptimes? i noticed that i couldnt see when i had serpent sting, black arrow, and explosive shot on. is there a way to customize the ui to include this debuff counter?

thanks

fandraal

4 Garwulf May 4, 2010 at 9:22 am: It seems that perhaps NTK isn’t playing nicely for some of you. That is the addon I’m using to track Serpent Sting, as well as Explosive Shot. I don’t track my BA dots, but rather just have a Power Aura to notify me when it’s available to cast.

My NTK bars for the DoT timers are placed in the space between my unit frame and my target’s.

5 Henrok August 21, 2010 at 11:14 am

the spellprep bars are stuck in the center of the screen, which UI do i need to adjust? I can’t figure it out. Also, the list of arena, honor, mail, fps, guild, armor and all those stats are stuck in the center too. How do I move them? /reflux switch GarUI didn’t work but I’ve got everything else the way I want it.

6 Garwulf August 22, 2010 at 10:18 am: The cast bars can be fixed by typing:

/acb

Then go to Profiles and Load GarUI. That will load my UI profile for AzCastBar.

The stats are configured by typing: /sldt

Look for Profiles down on the left side, select GarUI from the drop-down. That should fix things.

Hi Gar,
Absolutely great work on the UI and website. Quick question. I love everything about the UI, except for the fact that everytime I scroll over anyone or anything, it displays smack in the center of the screen. Which addon should I be looking at to fix this?
Thanks
AZN

8 Garwulf February 5, 2011 at 6:21 pm: @AZN

Sorry man… I could have sworn I’d replied to this weeks ago, but I don’t see it here in the comments, so I guess I missed you. Sorry…

If you’re still wondering about this, TinyTip is the addon you need to adjust. /tip will get you into the config area. Click on the Anchor button, then drag it to where you want it.

Alternatively, you can click on the Anchors option in the list and set the Frame Unit and World Unit to mouse or parent anchor.

Hope that helps… and if I’m too late, then hopefully it at least helps someone else.

How do you get your portrait in between your health and name?

10 Scrios February 5, 2011 at 4:58 pm

Yeah I totally wanna know I went to the /suf options but didnt allow the possiblity to make the portrait like urs i get 2d 3d and class icon how do u get the portrait like the ones in your pics

11 Garwulf February 5, 2011 at 6:32 pm: /suf

Click the frame you want to add the portrait to, or select Global Configuration and select multiple frames.

Go to the General tab and click Enable Portrait. Next, click the Widget Size tab and where it says Portrait, click Show as bar. Drag the Order slider to position it and drag the Height slider to increase the size.

That should do it.

Hey i would like to know, which are the addons i should get if i ONLY want the spell bar here? I tried ButtonFacade, ButtonFacade:Apathy and Bartender4, but thoose 3 don’t seem to be it…. So which is it i need?

13 Garwulf March 4, 2011 at 3:27 pm

You’re probably looking for AzCastBar and maybe NeedToKnow.

Have a look at those and see if that’s what you’re after.

14 Painhunter March 5, 2011 at 3:19 am: Btw, how come theres nothing inside the config panels when i do /kgpanels config? It’s totally empty on all the bars.

15 Rycis April 17, 2011 at 2:32 pm

Hey i tried downloading your Ui i did everything but when i log in i reach the panic mode because all the bars most of the bars are huge in the center of the screen and my main bars are locked in place with the normal blizzard ui even after i type in the /reflux thing any ideas why?

16 Ranhwa of Gul'dan May 1, 2010 at 3:16 pm

wow I always wondered what you put into bars 3-5
now i know… sort of

17 Branin May 1, 2010 at 4:19 pm

Taking the UI for a spin to see if I like it. Everything work as you said until I logged in and had the “panic” page. Typed the /reflux switch GarUI but nothing happened. Any helpful insiders?

thanks for all the work

18 Garwulf May 1, 2010 at 5:19 pm

Branin,

I forgot to mention… make sure you check “Load Out of Date Addons” on the addons screen before you log in on your character. I’m guessing that’s probably the issue.

19 Aurok May 3, 2010 at 10:18 am

I’m getting the same problem here. I reach the “panic page” and type in /reflux switch GarUI. However it only changes a few of the addons. I doubled checked and i do have “Load out of Date Addons” checked. Seems as though some of the profiles aren’t saved or something.

Thanks for all your work and the help.

20 Garwulf May 3, 2010 at 11:39 am

Aurok,

One addon that I did notice to be acting strangely is NeedToKnow. I installed the UI on one of my wife’s toons right now, following the exact same procedures I’ve outlined in my instructions. It worked flawlessly.

However, now I’m noticing on my machine that NTK is having trouble remembering what it’s supposed to be doing. Beyond that, all other addons seem to switch over just fine.

Which addons are misbehaving by the way?

21 Sulli May 6, 2010 at 1:40 pm

I think for people NTK is having issues because you only set it up for the primary spec. I configured it for my MM spec, then switched specs to do the same for SV and it was already there.

22 Garwulf May 6, 2010 at 1:49 pm

I didn’t think that NTK had support for dual specs. I figured users would just change my buffs to theirs, or whatever else they wanted shown in there.

I’ll check into that though and see if NTK supports multiple configs for dual specs.

23 Stealthrone August 23, 2010 at 8:12 am

Any advise for me and Grolnar

24 Garwulf August 23, 2010 at 11:21 am

Did you update all of the addons prior to installation? Make sure you have the most recent versions of all the addons in the package.

I use the Curse Client for the majority of them, and the MMO UI Minion for the ones that Curse doesn’t catch.

I just installed this for another toon as recent as last week and it worked fine.

As long as the addons are all up-to-date, enabled, and the directions followed… you should be fine.

Let me know if the addon update sorts things out.

25 Stealthrone August 24, 2010 at 5:03 pm

Updated all adds but when i type /reflux switch GarUI it stays jumbled up (updating just got rid of the errors). Ive tried doing everything manualy but it still doesnt come out like your UI. Id really be greatful if u could help me troubleshoot this coz this is the UI i want its perfect for me. If u cant help with the /reflux switch GarUI, could u help me get rid of the discription of everything my mouse goes over because it comes right in the middle of my screen and also i have the, social thing letting me know guildies, friends online,amour, how much gold i have Fps, mail, arena, honorpoints ect i just want my powa auras in the middle but that i can sort. but would really like to get /reflux switch to work. sorry for the trouble.

26 Garwulf August 24, 2010 at 9:12 pm: If Reflux isn’t working, you should still at least be able to manually select my profile within each addon’s config area. Have you given that a shot?

The tooltip addon is called Tiptac, and can be accessed by typing in: /tip

Got to Anchors and reposition the tooltips where you want them.

Did you try a /reload..?

If Reflux isn’t working, there’s not much i can do to help with that. Best advice I can give is to either try a fresh re-install or manually configure my profile for each addon (what I would do).

27 Windspirt May 3, 2010 at 3:49 pm

Hey Branin,

I encountered the same error while test to make sure his directions was correct. The GarUI profile was not saved to the reflux. type /reflux show and if it is saved it will show you. If you need his layout I have worked it out and saved the profile I can send you.

29 Ibraha May 2, 2010 at 2:10 am

When I was testing out the UI on a target dummy, NeedtoKnow just all of a sudden reset. And now I cant get it back to you’re config. Is there a profile setting or something for NtK?

30 Garwulf May 2, 2010 at 11:13 am

Hmmm… that’s odd. Well, it’s pretty easy to configure if you need to.

Type in /ntk and right click on each bar to configure its settings.

Kripp’s video is really good if you want a crash course on the set-up.

31 Ibraha May 2, 2010 at 1:13 pm: Yeah it was pretty easy to match you’re config after some tweaking so I got it. It’s just odd that it happen at all. Maybe i did something on my end. Hmmmmm

32 Quill2006 May 2, 2010 at 2:14 pm

Hi Gar, I’ve just downloaded your UI and so far I’m loving the look of it. I’m trying to reconfigure some things to fit my monitor, and I can’t seem to move the objectives list. Any suggestions?

33 Garwulf May 2, 2010 at 3:57 pm

A Google search told me that the objectives list’s position was fixed a patch or two ago. In other words, it seems to be immovable unless you can find an addon that allows you to move it.

It seems to mesh with my layout quite well. Is it interfering with the action bar on the right maybe?

34 Quill2006 May 2, 2010 at 5:46 pm

Yes, I decided I wanted to keep my action bar on the right visible, because I’m used to it being there, but it gets in the way of the objectives. Sorry to make you do a Google search, I could have sworn it was movable but I guess that’s out of date.

35 Garwulf May 2, 2010 at 6:02 pm

No worries. It wasn’t an issue I was aware of, so I wanted to look into it.

Does the default Blizz action bar on the right play nicely with the objectives list?

36 Quill2006 May 2, 2010 at 11:42 pm

Yep, I have both right action bars up on my regular UI, and it conveniently pushes the objectives list over so that it doesn’t interfere.

On a separate topic, is there a way to get it to let me set a focus target? I use focus to make misdirect stupid easy for most fights, and your UI won’t let me set focus.

37 Lozaiah January 15, 2012 at 12:01 am: Yes, I am aware this is a severely out-dated reply but I thought I might as well post just in case anyone else encounters the same concern.

Chinchilla actually covers the “Objectives List” and a number of other displays like the World State, Vehicle Seats, Durability, Boss Frames, Capture Frame (whatever that is), and a couple others I think. It’s been available since WotLK, if my memory serves correctly.

Anyway, just type /chinchilla to open the config interface then select Quest Tracking from the list of modules on the left, you can adjust the Objectives list size here to your liking. When you’re happy, select Positioning from the modules list and make sure that the Enabled box is checked, then scroll down and look for the Quest Tracking & Achievements options box and check Movable, you’ll be able to drag-and-drop the orange box on-screen that represents the Objectives List, or if you’re like me and have a fetish for point-by-point precision then you can use the provided X-Y sliders.

Regarding the setting of Focus Target, it seems that Blizzard has actually disabled the editing a number of in-game options so as to prevent addon developers from creating “hack-like” addons. So you’ll have to work it manually, type /focus to set your current target as your Focus and then type /clearfocus to remove focus. A simple Macro can easily fix this concern (provided you still have button space, of course), like so:

/clearfocus [mod:ctrl] [btn:2]
/focus

The post is very good, I just miss something:
Is there a way to map different keymappings for the secondary talent (within the same char)?

40 Garwulf May 3, 2010 at 9:31 am: All you need to do is reapply the keybinds using /kb. Make it so that all of the action bars are visible, then start going across the rows, adding the keybinds.

41 dooky May 3, 2010 at 10:36 am

Ok, there are things which aren’t clear now:
– How can I get back the dungeon finder and other buttons from minimap?
– How can I check the happiness level of my pet? It shows only when goes unhappy.

THe other parts are looking brilliant, but still testing it!:)

42 Garwulf May 3, 2010 at 11:08 am

dooky,

To put some of the icons back on your minimap, right click on it to open the Chinchilla config screen. Click on the ShowHide option to the left, then check the icons you want to put back on the minimap. You can them reposition them by clicking the MoveButtons option, and dragginf the sliders to get the buttons where you want them.

I have my unit frames to fade when I’m at full health & mana, and not busy. Same goes for the pet. If you want to make the pet’s unit frame (or yours) always visible, then do this:

Type: /suf
Got to: Unit Configuration > Global > check Player & Pet > General > uncheck Enable Combat Fader

Another option is to drag the inactive alpha slider so that the unit frames fade, but are still always visible.

Hope that helps.

43 dooky May 3, 2010 at 11:39 am

Nice! Thanks for the help, it works as it supposed to do:) I love your work dude, it seems like you worked pretty hard on it:)

44 Kalora May 30, 2010 at 11:06 am

I’ve got my unit frames to stay visible (both me and my pet), as well as the pet happiness indicator, but the indicator always says my pet is unhappy even tho when I right-click and select Pet Details, the icon says he’s happy.

Any help on this would be wonderful, as I can’t seem to find a solution on Curse or WOWInterface.

45 Garwulf June 1, 2010 at 1:37 pm: That is really odd. My happiness indicator works fine. I would try deactivating it, reloading the UI, reactivating it, then reloading again. Also, make sure you’re using the most recent version of the addon.

ty man for all you hard work

47 Garwulf May 3, 2010 at 1:48 pm: It will work. You’ll probably have to play around with the UI slider in-game and maybe move a few things like Recount, omen and the raid frame, but it should adapt.

48 dooky May 4, 2010 at 3:13 am

It worked thanks for that. Just to make it easier, can you please share your NTK settings as well?

Aah yes ty for all man really apreciate it

50 Quill2006 May 4, 2010 at 7:23 am

Hey Gar, I’m still struggling with not having a focus target for my misdirect and a few other things. Is there a setting that’s keeping me from using that function, or is it just part of one of the addons you used for your UI?

51 Garwulf May 4, 2010 at 9:19 am

I have no idea why it’s not letting you set a focus target. That is bizarre. I use focus all the time, plus it’s worked fine on all of the test installs I’ve done.

52 Guest January 5, 2012 at 11:01 am: Type /focus in chat and your target will become your focus

53 Alphanhunt May 4, 2010 at 10:08 am

great work on the UI. I get a problem after loading the ui is that it show my frame and pets in the middle of nowhere. it’s draggable but once i do that another stays behind. with 3 overlapping. Was trying to track down which addon it is, pb4 or suf? then somehow 5 more popped up and into configuration mode. with focus target myself, pet, skull, triangle, star. etc etc.

54 Garwulf May 4, 2010 at 10:35 am

That’s Shadowed Unit Frames. /suf

I have the following enabled:

player
target
pet
focus
target of target
focus target
party
party targets
arena
raid

that seems right but there’s 1 fixed unit and 3 moveable unit frames when i target myself plus my pets’. they disappear when i have no target, pet stays. when i uncheck everything they all disappear . i just want the fixed one to stay. does it sound like i have the default and your config overlapping?

56 Garwulf May 4, 2010 at 8:13 pm: I’m going to upload a new file which contains a more recent version of my WTF folder. If you manage to get things sorted out, then cool. If not, you may want to d/l the new package.

I’m also planning a brief video overview of the UI, so people can understand the methods to my madness, and to also aid in troubleshooting if manual adjustments need to be made. I worked on it for awhile today, but I was hasty again and tried to attempt it without any sort of script.

Tomorrow hopefully.

another thing for chatter config. the chatbox shows below the frame when typing. so you can’t see what you’re typing at all. couldnt find the option to config that.

58 Garwulf May 4, 2010 at 10:37 am: /chatter > Edit Box Polish > Attach to… > Free-Floating

Position it where you want it, then select Free-floating, Locked.

I’m using a laptop with fairly low resolution and with a few tweaks this has worked beautifully. I’m having trouble getting one last thing working – when looking at a quest reward, if it is near the left edge of the screen, the tool tip of the reward item overlaps the one of the item already equipped – like this: The already equipped tooltip follows the mouse cursor – so if it far enough from the edge of the screen it’s OK – like this: I haven’t been able to find where to configure this behavior – any suggestions?

Once again – thanks for taking the trouble to put all this together. Once I have this last issue sorted out, I’ll be a happy troll.

60 Brad May 4, 2010 at 9:12 pm

I’d linked to a couple of screenshots – showing the problem – looks like the links were stripped out.

61 Garwulf May 4, 2010 at 9:29 pm

I saw ‘em in the comment e-mail.

Type in /tip, then play with either Anchors or Mouse, or both. I have the item tooltips set to a mouse anchor. You may want to either reposition them or just add additional spacing.

Let me know if that works for ya.

62 Brad May 4, 2010 at 9:59 pm: Thanks – I thought it might be in that addon somewhere. Changing Anchor -> Frame Tip Type from mouse anchor to normal anchor did the trick!

OK, i also having problem wiht setting up focus. How u usually change the focus? Right click on the target frame and select set focus…but with right click, there is no menu to change focus…weird.

64 Garwulf May 5, 2010 at 11:32 am

I use a keybind for setting focus. You might want to go that route. Setting a focus target often has to be performed on-the-fly, so a keybind would be a better option in my opinion.

65 Matt July 15, 2010 at 6:22 am

I am having the same issue as dooky, i just started using your UI, and cannot set focus now to use with my MD macro.

How do i setup a keybind for setting focus?

Thanks.

66 Garwulf July 15, 2010 at 9:46 am

Open up the default Blizzard Key Bindings interface, scroll down to targeting Functions, scroll down to Focus Target, click the big red tab to the right of it, hit the desired key bind and then click Okay.

You may want to set a Target Focus key bind as well, so that you can immediately retarget your focus if needed.

67 Matt July 15, 2010 at 10:48 am: Perfecto! Thanks, love your UI.

I changed the map’s size, and now I can’t seem to figure out how to adjust the tracking button; I like having it, but I want to move it. How would I go about doing that? I found the method to move the text from kgpanels, but not the button itself.

69 Garwulf May 5, 2010 at 11:33 am

/sbf options

That will highlight and unlock the buff frames. Grab the little tracking icon and place it where you want, then close the config screen.

That’s it.

70 Quill2006 May 5, 2010 at 11:52 am

Yay! Thanks for the quick response. I’m afraid I’m going to keep pestering you for a bit, this is the first time I’ve really messed around with a lot of these addons. Usually I just use stuff out of the box.

71 Quill2006 May 5, 2010 at 11:57 am: Would you perhaps have a screenshot of your UI with most of the bars, addons, etc. showing on the layout? I keep enlarging bars and such only to find out they’re on top of something else, but I was going blind squinting at tiny text before.

Thanks!

Just rolled my second hunter ever, and was directed to this website (amazing! kudos to you, sir).

I’ve downloaded you UI, and I have to say it’s amazingly clean. The issue I seem to be having, tho, is with the key layouts, and it’s kinda two-fold:

1 – I moved my INTERFACE and WTF folders right out of the WoW folder, and copied your UI in. When I loaded WoW, my original key layout was still present. Any ideas?

2 – Have you configured a bar that houses the traps, aspects, and pet maintenance? My pet is flashing yellow, and I can’t seem to find a bar that has this on it.

Keep up the amazing job!

Hey Garwulf,

I’d like to know where you can check the debuffs on the target? I can’t see them at all…
Is it a setting in suf or I missed something because of the different screen resolution?

84 Garwulf May 25, 2010 at 1:09 pm: I have target debuffs turned off, but you can enable them by checking debuffs in the Auras section of the Target frame in SUF.

The only debuffs I track are Explosive Shot, Serpent Sting and Hunter’s Mark. Those I monitor by way of NeedToKnow and Power Auras.

ps. very nice im loving it allready and i havnt even got past getting all my varibles sorted

Seken,

You can either type /calendar

-or-

Open up the Chinchilla config by right clicking on the minimap. Go to ShowHide and check the box marked calendar. Next, go to MoveButtons and scroll down to Calendar. Drag the angle slider and move it where you want it.

Hope that helps.

With keybindings all set this way, does it make the alt/shift/control modifiers not needed?

92 Garwulf May 26, 2010 at 8:03 pm: Not really. You just assign shift+1, alt+1, ctrl+1, etc… to whichever action bar slots you want to bind. I don’t use too many keybinds with modifiers myself, but however you want to set it up is no problem either through /bt4 or Blizz’s keybind interface.

I messed up the kgpanel for SUF raid frames. Basically I noticed that if one of the groups was not full it was not leaving a space for the person, so I changed a SUF setting that caused the kgpanel to not show. I then tried changing the kgpanel parent, but messed up the string. Is there a way to find the name of a parent for the kgpanel strings? How did you go about finding those strings?

96 Garwulf June 8, 2010 at 3:51 pm

Yes, there is… in fact, I was meaning to post that. I’m on it. Give me a few mins.

97 Garwulf June 8, 2010 at 11:57 pm

Sulli,

Sorry I left you hangin’ man. I was in the middle of something when you commented, then just got busy with this and that…

Anyway, I’m back…

Here’s the macro:

/script ChatFrame1:AddMessage(“You are hovering over frame: ” .. GetMouseFocus():GetName())

I also updated the UI info above, so scroll up to the area just above the Raid screenshot and you’ll see a more in-depth explanation.

Hey gar i got a kind of complex problem i think, first off great ui and love it all the work you have put into.

my problem is i have installed it correctly and all the addons are enabled when i log in i type the/reflux switch GarUI it is oke, but then when it does so it aint balanced which is weird i got my resolution on 1920×1200 (wide) but some things are like out of my screen or to big or to small compared with other things and not exactly was what it is on your screenshot? you know what i have done wrong properly?

100 Garwulf June 9, 2010 at 10:57 am: Make sure the UI Scale slider is set to off. My UI uses the default UI scale.

Another thing to verify is that you have copied over my layout.txt file.

101 Shahin June 10, 2010 at 2:47 am

aah, kk i think i had ui scale on. so set that off and what you mean copy the layout.txt file??

102 Garwulf June 10, 2010 at 10:19 am: If you followed the instructions for installing, then the layout.txt will have copied over. I only mentioned it because it was the only other thing I could think of that would cause positioning issues.

So did you get things fixed?

uhmm, dont know exactly what you mean i did follow your instructions and i also turn off ui scale, and it looks alot better now on my hunter, on my lvl 11 alt druid it looks messed up with the cooldown bars and things like that. but 1 question how can i get to my calender xD ? since on this map you cant see those options ?

I’m using 1024×768, since my computer is low on RAM, which makes your UI one of my personal preferences, since it has all I need and doesn’t consume too much memory ^^.

112 Garwulf June 14, 2010 at 10:36 am: have you tried using my UI with the in-game UI scale adjustments? You may be able to scale the pieces down and make them fit, with a maybe a little repositioning here and there.

Also, as others have mentioned, Skada is a decent alternative to having both Recount and Omen. That would free up a little bit of real estate, as Skada handles both threat and damage meter chores in one package.

124 Garwulf June 23, 2010 at 1:17 pm

Brigs,

Did you update all of the addons after you downloaded it? There were some major changes to the chatbox, so I higly suggest you update Chatter to the latest version.

I played for a few hours last night without any errors. Update Chatter and let me know if that helps things.

125 Mathiyas July 14, 2010 at 4:13 pm

Hey Gar,

First off, thanks so much for this. I’ve dabbled in customizing my since the day I started playing and have never come even CLOSE to something this sleek looking lol. I had the same problem as mentioned by Brigs, updated my addons (doh) and I no longer get the errors and the chat box itself looks right, however its position and size are still FUBAR. Reflux and /reload wont touch it. My next move is to find a way to move it and resize it myself, but I wanted to check and see if you have any tips or tricks that might fix this.

Thanks again!

-Mat

126 Garwulf July 14, 2010 at 5:14 pm: Glad you like the UI Mathiyas.

I found that right after Blizz implemented the new chat system things went a little kooky. I had to unlock the chat frame, then resize and reposition it maybe half a dozen times. Eventually it just stopped moving and hasn’t given me any trouble since.

Just unlock it by right clicking the chat tab on hover-over, then resize and drag it into position. Afterward type in reload. If it’s still there, then you’re probably in business.

If it won’t stay put, just move it back. Eventually it will behave.

hi Garwulf,

128 Garwulf June 24, 2010 at 11:29 pm

shinoru,

The tracking icon is a SatrinaBuffFrame. To move it, type in:

/sbf options

This will bring up the SatrinaBuffFrame config. Once there, just drag the icon where you want it, then exit.

The coords and location are controlled via SL DataText. To edit those, just type:

/sldt

That will bring up the SL DataText config. Uncheck the Lock Frames at the top left, then move the loaction and coordinates to the desired posistion. Check Lock Frames again, and you’re off and running.

Hope that helps.

139 Garwulf July 3, 2010 at 9:27 am: Hey Raybeez,

Welcome back.

To move the poison bar, type in: /ntk

This will bring up the NeedToKnow config screen and also allow you to drag the bars around. You may have to shift+click to drag them. I can’t access my account right now to verify.

The party frames can be resized/repositioned by typing in: /suf

This brings up the ShadowedUnitFames config. Select the party frames and adjust them accordingly.

Hope that helps.

I must of done something wrong because when I logged into wow everything had been reset….even the opening movie came on…I dunno I’ll try and upload everything again later this week on a day off. Frustrating because I love the way your UI is set up and been trying to get mine to look like that for a while now.

153 jonathan July 15, 2010 at 2:30 pm

i like the ui but when i do “/reflux switch garui” doesnt switch it =( i dont know what i did wrong it jsut stays the same =(

154 Garwulf July 15, 2010 at 3:51 pm: Make sure you type it as: /reflux switch GarUI

If you’re typing in /reflux switch garui, it will not work. The command is case-sensitive.

Hopefully that gets you rolling, but if not, lemme know.

155 Bane July 16, 2010 at 1:46 am

This is such a great UI, just wanted to thank you for the work you’ve put into it Gar. I keep getting pleasantly surprised by nice little touches and attention to detail, and it even translates to non Hunter toons easily – tanked Ulduar with my Warrior last night using it pretty much unmodified other than TidyPlates & ThreatPlates.

It makes the game more fun to play, which is quite an achievement

Thanks again!

156 Garwulf July 16, 2010 at 9:22 am: Thanks Bane!

Yours is one of the nicest compliments I’ve ever received.

I’m really glad you like it.

157 Garwulf July 16, 2010 at 9:21 am

@ Perceuss,

…I feel like a blind guy at a porn shop

Wow, that sounds frustrated.

All I can tell you, is that the chat box got a little screwy for me too after 3.3.5. Just unlock it by clicking the chat tab on hover-over, then resize and reposition. You may have to do this a few more times after logging in, but eventually it will take. I don’t know why, but I must have logged and re-logged half a dozen times before it would behave.

Due to demand, I’ll likely post my keybinds pretty soon. They’re not what I would consider to be a strong template for others to work from, but they work for me. If someone can glean something from the post, then so be it. I figure there are a lot of players not using any, so at least it will give them some idea as to how they can get started.

158 Perceuss July 16, 2010 at 3:58 pm: One last thing and i’ll leave you alone….ok the screen shot that you have for the BG’s the timer bars above the chat….I have some that overlap…how do i correct this? thanks Gar.

Yo Garwulf!
I discovered your very great homepage some weaks ago and now I signed up for getting some information about your UI.
But first I have to say I’m from Germany and my English skills are not enough to understand everything whats posted here or in the forums.
So yeah, I wonder how you get this bar with your total amount of gold, armor status, memory used by addons, latence, fps, online guildmembers and current time..
Can you give me a short description which AddOn you use for that, it’s really nice.

And another question:
Did you find a way to get Bagnon compatible with ButtonFacade (maybie with SharedMedia…)?
I’m using ButtonFacade: Caith by the way, it seems really similar to yours.

Hope you can give me some feedback and excuse my bad English skills ;D
Greetings from Germany!

160 psycot August 2, 2010 at 10:08 am

Ohh, I’m really sorry for that… I found the correct Addon in your blog. :X
It’s SLDataText, isn’t it? Sure.. ;D

161 Garwulf August 2, 2010 at 10:17 am

Yes, SLDataText is the one.

I don’t have my bag frame displayed, so I never really paid much attention to whether the buttons were being skinned or not. I’ve not had any troubles with it though.

162 psycot August 2, 2010 at 10:38 am

Thank you for your fast reply.
Is kgPanels the only way to get this nice background to these SLDataText information?
It just seems, that kgPanels is not really handy..
Is it difficult?

163 Garwulf August 2, 2010 at 4:45 pm: It is the only way to get that nice background, and I would say it’s not for beginners or those without a desire to learn the addon.

I like messing with stuff, but I can see how others could get fed up with KGPanels.

To achieve a similar look, but with a lot less hassle, you could go with a a data broker bar plugin such as Chocolate Bar, then install the various DataBroker plugins into that.

SLDataText is very lightweight, which is why I like it, but it does take a little bit extra to get it displaying how I have it.

Update: Here’s a link for the Chocolate Bar data Broker plugin, if you’re interested…

Yo Garwulf!
Since I can’t reply to your latest comment on my postings, i just post another comment.
I got kgPanels and SLDT from your UI-Package and add it to my user interface.
It takes me a while, but I think I got a nice solution now.
I have to say, in some parts it looks similar to yours

Here is a direct link:

And thank your very much for your tips by the way ;D

It looks great!

166 Fugitivelama August 4, 2010 at 12:59 pm

Great UI! Just Downloaded and Installed , everything placed itself perfectly once i typed the nessecary command. I did a quick OS3D run just to check it out in raid. I definitely need to go through the auras as while they are mostly the same buff wise , my icons and sounds were different. One thing that I had noticed is I didn’t see the targets de-buffs anywhere? maybe since it was only a 2min fight I just overlooked it? I like to see the HM and SS icons on the boss debuffs so i can know if i have to hit a quick chimera to refresh while DPSing another target or avoiding things like coldflames.

167 Perceuss August 12, 2010 at 6:22 am

Hey Gar I know you’re busy, I love the UI I just need to tweek a few things and I’ll be all set. I am working on the debuffs on my target which I found out how to do from reading the comments but the one issue I am having that is irritating me……..if you look at your BG screenshot above the cooldown timers and the flag or tower capture timers just above your chattbox….well on mine they are in the middle of the screen covering up my toon and overlapping each other if you could point me in the right direction as to how to fix this I’d be greatly appreciative.

168 Perceuss August 12, 2010 at 10:04 am

One more thing and I am done sorry Gar but how can I see my combo points?

169 Garwulf August 12, 2010 at 11:35 am: They should show up below your target’s power bar. If they’re not there…

/suf > Unit Configuration > Target > Widget Size

Scroll down til you see combo points. You can adjust the size of the combo points widget (bar) as needed.

Reply

170 Garwulf August 12, 2010 at 10:23 am

Hey Perceuss,

Those are controlled through AZCastBar.

Type in: /acb

Go to: BattleGround

Then click on Position from the choices below. Size and position them as needed.

171 Perceuss August 12, 2010 at 11:36 am: Thank you sir, that’s much better!

172 Chris August 14, 2010 at 5:28 pm

Hey Gar, I got a question about the cast bar that shows up. I added a couple bars via bartender (above the 2 you have) and I moved all the Unit frames up a bit, but I can’t figure out how to move the cast bar and so its behind one of my rows of Icons. Is it part of ACB? if so could you tell me how to move it? THX!

173 Garwulf August 14, 2010 at 7:10 pm: Chris,

Type in: /acb

The bars you need to move are player, target and the swing timer. Click on each one, then adjust their location by using the Position option below.

174 Felinin August 18, 2010 at 8:17 am

I recently switched to this UI and it’s so much better than the standard UI, once you get used to the differences. Thanks a million!
One thing I have not found out how to do, though: on the standard minimap there’s a button to teleport in and out of random dungeons. How do you do this now that the button is no longer there? Also while in queue I could check the wait times by hovering over that button, which was helpful though not critical.
But I found myself suddenly left alone in a random HC last night after downing the last boss, and could not teleport out. I could have used HS of course, but I didn’t want to have to do that. Eventually I found a passage leading to an exit portal, but no way to simply teleport out.
Also, although it’s slightly OT here, I’m very much used to checking on my pet’s happiness in the standard UI, but with my new UI I only see the small face occasionally when my pet bar pops up, and then usually only when in combat. Is this something that Power Auras could keep an eye on for me?

175 Garwulf August 18, 2010 at 12:09 pm: Glad you like the UI Felinin.

Your two reports are things I plan on addressing in an update to this UI. In the meantime… here are some fixes:

For the dungeon finder button, just right-click on the minimap so as to bring up the Chinchilla config. Go to: Show/Hide, then click on LFG. This will put the button back on the map, allowing you to see the queue time, as well as teleport out.

To reposition it, go to: Move Buttons, scroll down to LFG, then drag the angle slider to where you want it.

The pet happiness issue can only be remedied by keeping the frame visible while out-of-combat. I have yet to find a way to display a pet’s happiness, that isn’t anchored to the unit frame.

To do this:

Type in: /suf
Go to: Unit Configuration > Pet
You can either drag the inactive alpha slider to a value above 0, or you can uncheck the box.

I don’t worry about it too much myself, as my pet’s happiness is usually only at yellow or red just after a res. Bloodthirtsy and Improved Revive Pet take care of my pet’s happiness needs in PvE. In PvP, I’m always healing them, so I usually never worry about happiness, since it’s typically always full.

176 Bob August 18, 2010 at 7:08 pm

UI NooB here. Love the look of your work, but I am wondering about the effects on my other non-hunter toons. If I remove the WTF and Interface folder from the root won’t that remove the settings for my pally, mage, etc.? I read through all the comments, and didn’t see anything related.

I can’t help but feel that this is a question with an obvious answer, but you seem to be the man in the know.

177 george August 19, 2010 at 12:24 pm

Gar, I have been using your UI for a while now and I enjoy it… It’s a constant learning experience for me since I had never used addons before I used yours.. I’m having a problem right now, I hope you can help me out. I’ve somehow managed to erase all of the settings in the GarUI Bartender profile.. Is there a settings file that I can replace to restore the GarUI Bartender settings or do I have to reinstall the entire thing?

178 Senjiroth August 20, 2010 at 12:23 am

HEllo Garwulf!,

I’ve been using your UI and loving it.. BUt i noticed I can’t click links on my chatter box? is there anything i can do to fix that??

179 Grolnar August 22, 2010 at 8:10 am

Hey man, love your UI. I was using Lui until I found this one. I am having a slight problem with the macro that tells you the name of the addon. When I try to use it, it just shows me GetMouseFocus():GetName()) in the chat window. Did something change in a patch that makes the macro not work, or did I do something wrong?

180 Garwulf August 22, 2010 at 10:11 am

Glad you like the UI Grolnar.

My guess is there’s something amiss in the macro. Mine still works fine.

I copied this straight from my macros-cache.txt file… copy and paste it into your macro:

/script ChatFrame1:AddMessage(“You are hovering over frame: ” .. GetMouseFocus():GetName())

Hopefully that sorts it out.

181 Grolnar August 22, 2010 at 2:31 pm

183 Garwulf August 23, 2010 at 11:26 am: I think it may be an addon update issue. Since the macro is still working fine for me, I’m hoping that it’s maybe just a case of outdated addons. This package is over 3 1/2 mos. old, so updates to many of the included addons are needed.

I made sure addons were up to date with the Curse client, but I had not heard of the MMO client. I tried it, and it had a couple issues with some addons. I guess I’ll have to do those manually and see what happens.

186 Kaeb August 26, 2010 at 12:49 am

Hi Gar, I’m a fan of your UI.
When will you do a ui for the patch 3.3.5?

187 Garwulf August 26, 2010 at 1:10 am

Hopefully pretty soon. I’ve made a few subtle changes already, and probably will have a few more within the next few weeks.

I’d estimate that mid-sept. would be a likely release date for an updated version.

192 Riggi September 1, 2010 at 4:58 am

When i hover over the monster it shows its mini box in the right hand center. The minibox that shows how many quest items needed etc. How can i move it?

Also where did you get your debuff icon? mine is still the default icon XD
How can i move the cords and location name from the bottom right hand side? if i moved the map?

Finally i would liek to ask how to have power bar activated all the time and how to activate recount onli in raids and instances?

I really Love your UI its great. Keep up the good work

Hey there Garwolf.

This is going to sound like a lot to ask but I’m really struggling to configure everything in on your screen. I use 1600 by 900 and I’ve spent hours trying to re-arrange but I have no idea what I’m doing.

Any chance you could upload a 1600 by 900 wisescreen one? It would be a massive help.

Thank you,

196 quasihayley September 13, 2010 at 1:08 am

Thank you for the awesome UI, I’m new to WoW and I’ve been trying to sort my interface out because the default bugs me but most of the UI just didn’t sit right with me. This however is brilliantly minimal. The kgpanels definitely give it a nice polish!

I’m only level 36 at the moment so my priorities for what’s accessible are probably a bit different to yours but I was wondering how you choose what stays visible? I’ve mostly gone for stuff with cooldowns at the moment and for Bar2 I’m showing key bindings to help me learn them for my newer skills.

One question I’d like your help with: There’s a countdown thing on Serpent Sting but is there something that will tell me when I haven’t got any active stings on enemies? If I’m tabbing between targets it’s hard to know when to recast – or should I just be recasting it on each new target to get the bonus on Arcane Shot (assuming that exists and I didn’t just imagine it)?

Thanks again Gar!

197 Garwulf September 13, 2010 at 1:24 am: Bar 1 I use mainly for my shots and more important abilities. Bar 2 is mainly for cooldowns. At 36, you should be able to get just about everything you need in those 2 slots. The (faded) bar on the right side of the screen is handy for consumables and other items you want to use outside of combat.

When I’m leveling a different class (I know… blasphemous), I’ll set those hidden bars to visible whilst I get used to the keybinds. Once I’ve got them dialed in, then I hide them again.

My Power Auras setup is configured to show aura alerts when certain shots are needed (i.e., serpent sting’s fallen off, black arrow is off cooldown). You may want to cycle through some of the PA settings to make sure it’s configured properly. First thing I’d check is to be sure they’re activated for your default spec.

If you watch that short Power Auras demo vid I made, you’ll see how they’re supposed to behave.

Thanks for the great UI.

I’m running into an issue w/ the dungeon finder in that I’m not seeing what people have signed up for which means I have to ask who is tanking, which means I often get snarky replies. I saw your reply regarding the Dungeon Finder and getting that button added back to the mini-map, but haven’t seen how to get the party role into the unit frames.

Thanks again…

199 Garwulf September 14, 2010 at 3:19 pm: Type in /suf

any help is great!

Many thanks again!

The location text is controlled via SLDataText. To move it, type in /SLDT to bring up the config. Unlock the text and reposition as needed.

The Tracking icon is displayed by way of SatrinaBuffFrame.

Type in: /sbf options

Drag the tracking icon where you want it.

You’re good to go.

The UI works fine for my hunter, but on my warrior there is a problem. Giant NeedToKnow bars appear in the center of the screen during combat showing cooldowns of each ability used during combat.. Sometimes these bars even overwrite each other creating a huge mess and at times completely blocking my view of the combat. There is no way to identify this group of cooldown bars so that I could figure how to either move them or get rid of them. I type /needtoknow and /ntk to access config screen but those commands are ignored. Nothing happens. In the needtoknow section of of wow interface menu there is no way to identify these bars. I’m thinking that you must have a script somewhere in the UI that creates these bars manually. This problem makes playing my warrior almost impossible.

204 george September 16, 2010 at 4:22 pm: im gonna reply to my own question

the answer is to use /acb. in my case, the GarUI profile was not loaded for some reason. loading it solved the problem.

My only question/problem would be that there is a yellow bar about 1/4 up the screen from the bottom. I’m not sure what addon it’s tied to or how to get rid of it. Any help would be appreciated.

Hey Gar, wicked UI, I’ve been using it for a few months now. Just revisited your site to see if you left any comments about updating addons for 4.0 patch, and thought I might ask a couple of questions I’ve got.
1. In your raid screenshot, there are 3 bars in between your player frame and your target frame, and one bar on the left side of your player frame, what are they, and I asume there ACB bars of some sort?

2. The default UI lets you check certain currencies to be displayed on the bag screen next to how much gold you have (I used honor and frosties before switching to your UI), does Bagnon have this ability? I’ve looked around on the Bagnon site but it’s of no help lol.

Again, thanks for the awsome UI, looks so much cleaner and more profesional then Blizz’s UI.

210 Garwulf October 12, 2010 at 9:53 pm: Hi Postie,

The bars between the unit frames, and just to the left of the player frame, are NeedToKnow cooldown and DoT timers.

I’m not sure on the currency thing… I always just use my character tab. If I get a chance to find out one way or another, I’ll update this comment.

Will there be an altered version for 4.0.1 ?

212 Garwulf October 12, 2010 at 9:50 pm: That’s the plan.

I’m not sure when I’ll be able to get to it, but I intend to make available an updated version.

213 Trapr October 17, 2010 at 9:01 pm

Having trouble with Shadowed Unit Frames showing party members and party targets. It all worked great prior to patch 4.0.1 now its borked and I have updated to latest version. Any ideas?

214 Postie October 18, 2010 at 4:35 pm

Hey there me again.

On the list of addons u use, under KGPanels, you say that you use it to add a gradient on the player buffs bar, the in the screen-shots it looks like each buff has a small frame around it, how did you achieve this?

Thanks.

215 Garwulf October 18, 2010 at 7:07 pm: Hi Postie,

I scrapped the panel gradient behind the bars. I went with the less is more stance on that.

The frame around the buffs is provided by ButtonFacade, using the Apathy skin.

i cant even load my character, my wow just becomes unresponsive and doesnt work.

217 Coppershanks October 21, 2010 at 10:53 pm

I tried loading your UI, but every time, after I try to login to my character, the game locks up on the load screen. I can login to the game, load all out of date addons and select my character, but it freezes each time when the load bar reaches all the way full. Any ideas what I’m doing wrong?

218 Antero October 26, 2010 at 3:19 am

Been a clicker for a long time and was curious if you could post a few examples of keybindings that you are using in your UI.

Thanks

219 Wulfwyn of the Nightfall October 28, 2010 at 1:49 pm

will the updated version be that crowded in Raids and PvP?

221 Zackh October 31, 2010 at 9:44 pm

lets go mate! get that UI updated, best UI evar!

222 Garwulf November 1, 2010 at 12:25 pm: It’s getting there Zackh. I’m trying to get it tip-top for an updated release, but I still need a little more time. It’s been rough the past several weeks trying to get some game-time in; however, when I have been on, I’ve pretty much been messing with my UI or testing things in some instance or BG.

It’s coming along nicely, but I don’t want to make it available until I feel it’s ready. There aren’t any revolutionary changes I’ve made to deal with focus, but I have added a few things that I feel are a bonus over the last one.

I won’t make any promises, but sometime soon.

223 flikQ November 1, 2010 at 9:46 am

Any updates on this for 4.x?

224 Garwulf November 1, 2010 at 12:20 pm: I’ve been working on one flikQ, but I’m not quite done with it. My playing time has taken a huge hit, so although 4.0.1′s been out a few weeks now, I’ve only been able to get in maybe a day’s worth of game-time.

When I make any changes I like to play with them for awhile to see if they enhance things or not. I also like to make sure there aren’t any (or at least too many) issues with the configuration.

Another thing that’s been holding me up is the fact that I may look to another unit frame addon.

In short, I am working on a newer and better version of this, but time’s not been on my side. :-\

225 flikQ November 3, 2010 at 7:20 am

226 Garwulf November 3, 2010 at 11:08 am: Yep. A lot. But not since this post: http://huntsmanslodge.com/8251/post-500.htm

I just need some time to finish with it, which I haven’t had.

I can pretty much guarantee I’ll have a finished version by next week – perhaps sooner. I’ll have a little bit more free time then.

gar, how do i edit that thing. when i mouse over a target enemy which displays their hp , mana ang etc. how do i relocate it. because i’m on 14″ so i have to edit some things.

230 Garwulf November 16, 2010 at 5:56 pm: That’s probably the target tooltip.

Type in /tip

Then click on the anchor button. A movable anchor will display and you can drag it wherever.

231 Icar November 14, 2010 at 7:26 pm

Hey i love your ui… but i tried loading it according to your instructions and the game crashes. I hit the enter world button and the load bar gets to 100% and then it stays on that screen and crashes. Any suggestions? I’m on a macbook with OSx 10.5.8.. i know I don’t run at your resolution.. but i’m wondering if I mis-pasted either the interface or wtf file?

232 Icar November 14, 2010 at 8:53 pm

so after a crapload of trial and error i narrowed the prob down to PowerAuras. That was the only thing causing it to crash. I guess i’ll try and find a more updated version or something and see if that works. IT LOOKS AMAZING and it’s working fine. thanks. Hopefully I can figure out how to make the res a bit more workable on my 14″ screen .

233 Garwulf November 14, 2010 at 10:20 pm: Hey Icar,

Once I get my update on WoWInterface (tomorrow most likely), you can d/l it and copy the Power Auras over. Also, if you like, you may just want to give the new version a whirl. I’m thinking that may b the better option since you just now installed it today.

In other words, don’t spend too much time adjusting this one because the new-and-improved version will be up soon – complete with up-to-date-addons.

244 Nurke January 7, 2011 at 8:53 am

Looks totally awesome! I so want this.. D but it doesnt work… : / i have done exactly what it says, but when i try to log in to the world the game freezes on load screen.. (yes, i have “load outdated addons” on)

245 Garwulf January 7, 2011 at 11:12 am: My first bit of advice would be to ensure you have the latest versions of all the addons included. I suggest using either, or both:

http://www.curse.com/client/
http://minion.mmoui.com/

I typically run the Curse client at every startup, and the MMOUI Monster once every few days. WoWInterface seems to get certain updates before curse, so I end up catching a few updates with the monster that curse missed.

If after updating all addons it still will not load, then I suggest disabling Power Auras. That seems to often be the culprit, and has helped a few people with your similar situation.

If it’s still giving you trouble, then you’ll likely have to go with a trial and error approach – relogging with minimal addons and slowly activating some until you can target the problem one(s).

246 Rïtz January 9, 2011 at 7:26 pm

Hey just wanted to say this is great. I have managed to rebuild most of this UI in Cata and I really, really like it! I am just curious what you were using to see the targets debuffs. I may be blind, but I can’t figure it out o.O

247 Thalin January 25, 2011 at 5:26 pm

Hey, Ive been using your UI for sometime now and I’m really enjoying it. i have however, seem to have lost the functionality of selecting my character simply by clicking on him. Any ideas on what would be causing this?

248 Thalin January 25, 2011 at 5:47 pm

First off great UI, I love it. One issue I’m having is that I cannot click on my character in the viewport to select myself. Is this an option with one of the above addons? I’ve poured through the default interface and all of the addon options. Im either simply missing it or it is a bug.

249 Cory January 28, 2011 at 7:09 pm

Ok Gar, I have been a quiet fan of your site since the release of cataclysm and I rolled my first hunter. I just downloaded and installed your UI and I am loving it. However, one thing I missed from my last UI was the ability to tell my pets happiness status. Does your UI do this and if so where do I find it?

250 Garwulf January 29, 2011 at 3:07 pm: In order to always see pet happiness, you need to uncheck the combat fader option in /suf.

Unfortunately, there’s no other way to monitor it outside of the unit frame, as happiness is not a buff. Therefore, you have to always have your unit frames visible.

I’ve actually changed my config to that anyway.

Hope that helps.

I was wondering if you ever considered changing the layout of your blog? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1 or 2 images. Maybe you could space it out better?

252 Swyftshot February 2, 2011 at 5:57 am

hi,

just curious if this will be compatible with the latest patch (4.0.3)? Would this be available on Curse.com?

253 Garwulf February 2, 2011 at 11:09 am: It’s on WoWInterface, but most all of the compiled addons can be maintained through the Curse client. It is compatible with 4.03 — just be sure to update all of the included addons first before logging in.

255 Garwulf February 3, 2011 at 12:35 am

Those are controlled via AzCastBar.

Type in: /acb and click edit mode. Drag them where you want them, then uncheck edit mode.

Hope that helps.

258 Garwulf February 5, 2011 at 6:57 pm: Drag the Recount Saved Variables back in from the:

All of the settings for the addon are stored in those files. Just restore them from my UI download and you’ll be back in business.

265 Garwulf February 5, 2011 at 7:02 pm: Player debuffs are above the player unit frame. Only 7 are set to show in order of importance. Target debuffs are CC or hunter-specific, so if you want to see more target debuffs, then you’ll need to enable them via /suf.

Gar – I downloaded your UI today and I was able to set it up fine. My small problem, however, was that a duplicate tracking symbol and coordinates icon appeared in the lower right corner of my screen irrespective of the mini-map. They were seemingly just floating there. Nothing I did was able to remove them from my screen. Please help. Thanks.

268 Garwulf February 17, 2011 at 2:33 pm: The tracking icon is a SatrinaBuffFrame. Type in /sbt options to re-configure or delete it.

The coords are served up via SLDataText. Type in /sldt to move or delete them.

That should help.

269 Xanathorn February 22, 2011 at 2:38 pm

Gar – I am sorry to bug you again but I have another question. There is a rectangualr shadow within the chatter chatbox that I can not delete. In addition, there is also a shadowed border around that minimap that I can not disable as well. Please advise. Thanks in advance.

270 Xanathorn February 25, 2011 at 1:28 pm

Bump for an answer please. In addition, is there anyway you could post a video about using some of the addons included in your UI b/c even after updating all of them (the ones that had updates anyway), I can not get need to know, power auras or azcastbar to work properly. Thanks.

271 Garwulf February 25, 2011 at 2:53 pm

Those are probably the KGPanels for the chat frame and minimap.

Type in: /kgpanels config
Go to: Active Panels
Click on: Chat & Map
Click the big red Remove button.

That’ll get rid of them, or you can make adjustments if you want.

As far as a video tutorial of my UI… don’t get your hopes up. No one’s paying me to create, update or support it, so it’ll only happen if I feel like doing one -and- have the time to spare,

There’s plenty of info on the compiled addons if you just Google the ones you need help with. For example, Kripparrian has an awesome one for NeedToKNow. Here… I’ll even give you the link: http://www.youtube.com/user/kripparrian?blend=1&ob=4#p/u/11/e6IDQ99y92I

272 Xanathorn February 26, 2011 at 9:40 am

Thanks Gar. Is there a reason, however, that your own need to know and azcastbar settings are not working at all after the UI is loaded? Is there something I can do to get your settings to work. I have checked and the profile on those adds is Gar. Thanks.

273 Garwulf February 26, 2011 at 12:51 pm: Not sure really, but if you watch that short vid I linked it will give you the info to configure them. I use 3 bars in my PvP spec (one for MS, one for Serp Sting), and one for target damage immunity) and 2 bars for my PvE spec (Expl Shot, Serp Sting).

Just to be sure… it should say GarUI — if it says only Gar for the profile then that would be incorrect.

274 Sam February 27, 2011 at 3:08 pm

Hey, I don’t know what’s wrong but I’ve installed the UI and when I log in to wow there are huge icons and stuff all over my screen, i try to “/reflux switch GarUI” but it’s not working. Everything stays extremly huge and annoying, do you have any suggestions of how to solve this problem, or maybe something went wrong during the installation?

275 Garwulf February 27, 2011 at 5:48 pm: Try going into the various addon configs and setting them to my UI profile manually.

/suf
/bt4
/acb
/sbf options

Those are 4 of the big ones, so try them out and see. Try /reload as well.

If none of that works, then you may want to attempt a fresh install, making sure to update all of them prior to logging in.

Hi Gar,

First time poster long time reader.

I downloaded this last year and loved it but had some issues that I thought were UI related which turned out to be my SideWinder X8 resetting it’s macros. Unfortunately we were working on H LK in my previous guild so I put my hunters UI back to standard and have left it until now.

So, 2 questions for you mate. 1. is the link above updated for 4.06 or do I need to grab the updates (not an issue) and 2. I have various alts (Pally Tank, Rogue, Mage) is there anyway I can disable your UI when using those alts ?

Thanks for all your hard work helping out the WoW Hunter community!

287 trib April 25, 2011 at 1:34 am

After playing Hunters for ever, only recently discovered this; for which I’m eternally grateful.

Im keen to understand the UI better, so if you don’t object to answering these questions, I’d really appreciate it:

the Power Auras are already in place in the download, yes (or no)?
looking at your screenshots, and comparing with your macro page, it’s sometimes hard to figure out what you have on bars and keybinds. Any hope you’d tell us what they all are?

So far, this setup is already making my play better, so thanks a bunch!

288 trib April 25, 2011 at 1:36 am

Oh, and one thing that I don’t think is you – Bagnon seems busted. I get errors when I try to use it. I’ve put in Baggins instead.

289 trib April 25, 2011 at 5:01 am

And a final question, if you’ll indulge me.

The frames on your bt4 screenshot and the others are somewhat different in size. I can figure out resizing, but the skinning that puts the dark, semitransparent boxes of fixed size behind them is irritating as the box size and frame size don’t match.

Where do I config those?

Much appreciated in advance.

I’ve been messing with this for a few weeks now, and have tweaked it to my own uses. I’m happier keeping on with Carbonite for some things and am trying to figure out where some of the text leftovers are coming from on my screen, like the phantom text that used to show gridref and region on the map.

Any suggestions on what to configure or switch off?

TIA.

295 Garwulf June 22, 2011 at 3:49 pm: Trib,

I apologize for being rather absent in these comment threads. I don’t always get a chance to answer them right away, and then… well… they tend to get lost.

The phantom text you speak of is there by way of SLDataText. /sldt

If you’re still having problems with this, then configuring it will sort you out.

Best,

Gar

Gar, when will you update your ui? You said that you do it week before

308 Garwulf July 25, 2011 at 9:31 am

I know, I know… I really thought I could have had an updated version available, but I’ve just not had the time. I’ve got a couple of teensy things I want to address, plus I typically like to scrub the .lua files a bit before I upload them. I want to be sure the updated version will be easily installable and user-friendly on the first pass.

All I can say is… as soon as I get a chance, an update will be made available. I know you and many others have been waiting, so I’ll try to put it on the fast track.

309 Olegator July 25, 2011 at 11:29 am: Thank you for the quick answer! Easily installable and user-friendly are on the first place, so its ok)

You have a very beautiful interface, a lot cleaner and streamlined than a lot of other “packages” I’ve seen, especially those monstrosities at Curse.com

333 Kastel December 26, 2011 at 2:52 am

Love the UI. Have learnt so much playing around with it. Cant work out how to get the buffs and debuffs to the top left of screen . Is that via SUF? or another addon? All buffs and debuffs seemed to be turned off in there. was a bit confused as some things say need to know and satrina Buff Frame?, however not installed-
All In all a very slick UI.

334 Bernardo December 26, 2011 at 4:07 am

As Popos mentioned, if the buffs are not displaying properly, then type in: /raven

Go to the Profiles tab and select GarUI, then do a /reload.

They should hopefully be configured properly then.

337 Bernardo December 28, 2011 at 4:18 am

Nah it don’t look like your UI… first the border texture it says that failed localizing or something like that but i have Texture Folder into Interface like on installation it says.

340 Garwulf December 28, 2011 at 8:07 am

You lost your ‘AddOns’ button at the character screen?! First I’ve heard of that ever happening.

Just delete the folders from my UI pack and drag your backup folders back in. The ‘AddOns’ button should be back. At that point I’d just review the installation instructions again – making sure you have the install procedure down to the letter.

341 Merrysusan May 26, 2012 at 1:45 pm: Hey Gar,

I’m excited to use your interface, however, I’ve had the some problem as the gentleman above. Do you know if he was ever able to resolve the issue? I followed your instructions to the letter and I don’t know what happened.

I will do as you say above an try again. I will let you know if it doesnt work when I’m done.

342 Zothan December 28, 2011 at 5:46 am

Hello Gar,

Ow how I love your setup! It’s one of the first time that I actually am willing to try to totally adopt another person’s setup, being a big fan of customizing it myself. Huge complements.

I do have a question though. My main is a priest and all of my addons are configured for it. I have adapted my hunter’s setup to my priests but where possible I have used different profiles. I would really love to try out your setup but for now would like to keep my priests. Since I’m already using 30+ addons fully configured this might turn out to be a problem.

Since I wasn’t aware of reflux I am quite unfamiliar with it and I was wondering. Would you think that it is possible using it, to first save my current Priest and Hunter setup and after that load yours? So if needed for raiding and RBG’s I can swap back to my original for the time being?

It would give me some time to familiarize myself with your setup while still being able to join my guild for events, as changing your setup takes some time to get used too.

Once again huge compliments to your UI. Haven’t been a regular visitor at the lodge but wil become one now, Cheers !

kind regards,
Zothan

343 Garwulf December 28, 2011 at 8:02 am: Glad you like the setup, Zothan.

You could install my UI setup while still keeping your current profiles, but it’d be a little trickier depending upon how many addons are shared. You’d probably want to do a copy/paste with the .lua files in the Saved Variables folder – being careful not to replace any existing ones.

At the character level, I would delete an existing character’s folder then replace it with the char file in the download. Configure my UI for this particular toon, then save it. At this point you should be able to switch between your existing profile(s) and my new one without any trouble.

Read this overview of Reflux before you begin any experimenting, and be sure to back up your existing folders before you move forward with the install.

345 Garwulf December 29, 2011 at 6:49 am: The yellow cross shows when my pet’s health dips below 60%. There’s a minor issue that started in 4.3 where it now displays while I’m waiting for a res.

The green and yellow “U-shaped” auras tell me when Serpent Sting or Widow Venom are not up on my target — also, the Widow Venom (yellowish) alert only shows when I’m flagged for PvP.

is there an easy way to make the enitre UI larger? everything is soooo small it hurts my eyes to try and read everything on a 30inch monitor…thanks!

356 Garwulf January 9, 2012 at 9:11 pm: You could use the UI scale to increase the size, but I can’t say whether the results will be to your liking. The UI is optimized for 1920×1280, so for any other res it will require some tweaking.

Were I to do it, I’d resize everything addon by addon. I know that sounds like a lot of work, but it’s nothing compared to the time I’ve spent creating this thing, with all of the settings, filters, etc. With a little patience, you should be able to make it work within about 45mins to an hour.

358 Garwulf January 9, 2012 at 9:05 pm: Hmmm… not sure what it could be. I would troubleshoot it by disabling some of the addons you think may be posing a conflict and then re-activate them one by one until you locate the culprit. This is pretty easy to do if you use the Addon Control Panel, then just keep doing a /reload.

359 george January 18, 2012 at 5:15 am

Gar, I really like your UI, but I need to customize it to suit my needs. The problem is I cant customize, because I dont know which addons are involved. Perhaps you can help me?

Here’s what I want to do: I want to swap the location of the action bars at the bottom of the screen with location of the player/enemy focus bars in the lower middle of the screen. The smaller player bars which appear when you are in a dungeon are fine where they are. Just need to do this swap – reason being, too much eye movement is required between the action bars at the bottom of the screen and what is actually happening on screen… So, I know that the action bars are controlled by Bartender4, but what about the Player/Enemy Focus bars? I cannot figure out which addon controls them so that I may change their location. Thanks in advance for your help.

360 Garwulf January 18, 2012 at 9:18 am: You must be talking about the unit frames, which are controlled by Shadowed Unit Frames, /suf.

If you need to move the cast bars associated with the target frame, then it’s controlled by AzCastBar, /acb.

I first realized my UI had a problem when this happened: http://oi42.tinypic.com/169nvyx.jpg

Figuring out which direction to shoot in was an achievement in itself >.<.

Anyway, there are a couple of addons I'd like to transfer into this UI from my existing setup, like TSM, Altoholic and Carbonite. Do you anticipate any issues? I'm especially worried about Carbonite. Also, what is your TidyPlates equivalent?

367 Soulitaire March 10, 2012 at 9:15 am

Gar….firstly let me say I love the UI…
After a 6 month layoff I thought I’d start fresh playing ONLY a hunter… so with a totally new account (so I wouldn’t be tempted to play something else, I have no focus) I have dedicated my free time to “The Hunter!”
I have used the odd addon but that was limited to Healbot, Need To Know, and Recount.
So I downloaded your UI as per your instructions and fumbled my way through each addon to get things looking the way I thought they would work for me.
Things seem to be going well from what I can tell, however I can’t for the life of me get “Recount” to work??
I know that isn’t much information to go on but I have no idea on what to look for… sorry!
Thanks in advance….

did you remove satrina’s buff frame ? because in the newly downloaded one from this site its not included

372 BigPappaPump April 26, 2012 at 7:43 am

For the dummies like me anyway you can make movies on where to put your hunter bars, how you use them, ect. Would be very helpful for people like me that have problems on what to use, where to place it ect.

373 Garwulf April 27, 2012 at 7:21 pm: My keybinds aren’t ones I’d necessarily recommend. When I first started playing WoW, I pretty much tossed skills in from L to R on my main action bar – assigning other keys when I ran out of room – then sorta stuck with those keybinds. I moved things around a tiny bit over the years, but my keybinds would probably be considered unorthodox by “ideal standards”.

A UI demo/explanation video is something that’s long overdue. I really want to do that at some point, so thanks for reminding me.

I think it would really help to answer some questions and give players insight into why I have things set up the way I do.

What do I need to do to be able to hover over my targets buffs/debuff to show what it is.. The UI has the info tip screen of my target go away as soon as I move the move off the target box..

377 Garwulf April 28, 2012 at 7:34 pm

I have target buffs configured like this:

The unit tooltip shows “all buffs”, the unit frame only shows short duration buffs (the important ones), shit that I can Tranq off displays above their unit frame in a column (via Power Auras).

The arena unit frames are designed to show all buffs, but the regular target frame filters out all of the raid style buffs, auras, aspects, etc.

Hopefully that sheds some light on the method to my madness.

378 Chong April 29, 2012 at 8:54 am

What addon controls those buff displays? I might be barking up the wrong tree..

379 Garwulf April 29, 2012 at 9:51 am

That would be Tip Tac. To access the config, type in: /tip

380 Chong April 30, 2012 at 5:13 pm: I see, thanks.. I cant figure out to get those Tip display to stay up then… Because as soon as my mouse leaves the target unit frame, the Tip that shows the buffs go away. I want to try to get the targets buff to stay up long enough to where I can hover over to figure what the buff / mount /etc is since I dont know all the icons…

389 Garwulf September 4, 2012 at 3:47 pm: That’s the SLDataText addon that is doing that. I’ve updated and reconfigured it, but it’s still not completely 5.0.4 ready. Some of the data modules haven’t been updated yet – like guild and friends, and the currency one seems to be broken at the moment.

My advice would be to disable it in the meantime, unless you want to update it and mess with it on your own. I’ll be uploading an updated version of my UI as soon as I think it’s ready, but I can’t say exactly when that will be. I plan on posting about the status of the update, so check back later tonight maybe.

You may want to sit tight for a few days, until i can get an updated version ready. Sounds like you may still have some out-of-date addons in there and/or are in a problem spot. There are issues with certain zones in the game right now, which may be exacerbating your problem.

Once I have this thing dialed-in, I’ll submit an update to WoWInterface and then you can try it.

To be honest, I don’t recall ever using that option to select myself. I always remember using either a keybind or clicking my portrait if I needed to do this.

Just to be sure, I disabled all of my addons and logged in to check. I can confirm I wasn’t able to select myself any other way. If there’s a setting that allows you to click on your toon itself to to select yourself – I don’t know about it.

Let me know what it is you need to select your toon for, and maybe I can help you out with options. As a hunter I cannot think of any situations where I’d need to do this, personally.

Hmm that seems very odd, maybe I’m remembering old functionality or something, but I could have swore I previously was able to do so. I personally like selecting my character better than clicking a portrait or having to have one more additional hotkey. If I’m out of combat and I want to change a dungeon to heroic mode for example, then I would need to hit said hotkey then rt click on my portrait. Id personally just like to click on my character then rt click my portrait.

I could always just my portrait visible i guess, but I don’t really want that. I have plently of options for hotkeying via my nostromo or g510 keyboard. I just like being able to select myself with the cursor. /shrugs

Thanks for the help though!

No problem. Probably the best bet would be to just assign a keybind for /targetplayer.

Anyhow, glad you like the UI.

F1 by default targets your toon.

Thanks for the UI Gar. Unfortunately I’m not elite enough to use the UI in it’s entirety. I took bits and pieces that I liked to make it fit me better. Maybe one day I will be Garlike ;?)

Garlike… Sheesh… that’s funny though.

I can see how the UI may seem a bit overwhelming to many, but keep in mind that it’s the result of 2-3 years of tinkering. It’s a lot to bite off at once, but you’ve got the right idea… baby steps.
