-Now shows xp rate and time to level and other things, based on the xp this session.
-Profiles. You can now have you settings shared between chars. They can automatically update to any changes made to the profile on other chars or you can just load the settings and change them to your heart's content.
-Fully configurable text including position. The text can be sent to the chat EditBox with a left click on the bar too.
-Textures can be changed for all elements.
-You can change the color and transparency for ALL elements, and can define different colors and or transparencies for different levels of rest (unrested, rested, and fully rested)
-Almost all elements can be hidden or shown.
-By default uses default UI tick marks so when someone asks you how many "bars" you have left 'till you level, you will know.
-Has a rested experience bar and a marker to show how far into the next level (or the next after that) you will go with rested experience.
-Any element can be set to flash when resting.
-A GUI config screen that can be accessed by typing /beb or right clicking on the bar. The GUI config is also load on demand so it will only be loaded if you want to change something.
-Moveable.
-Resizable.
Instructions:
-Chat commands
/beb [defaults, help] which will respectively load the addons default settings or show the list of valid commands. /beb by itself will show the GUI config menu.
-Attaching to frames
Press enter if you type in any changes as nothing gets updated until then. BEB will notify you if the frame is not valid.
-Using custom textures
The default location for custom textures for BEB is the Textures folder within BEB's folder.
If the texture is in there you just need to enter its filename without its extension. If it is elsewhere you will need to enter its path, eg. Interface\\AddOns\\BEB\\Textures\\MyTexture
-Changing the bar's text
If you type in any changes press enter when done as changes will only take effect then. The drop down menu will insert the relevent text variable at the cursors position.
-Using profiles
Create - You must create a profile before you can do anything with profiles. When you create a profile it will be created with your current settings.
Use - If you "Use" a profile any changes you make will be automatically saved to the profile and any changes other chars make to the profile will be automatically loaded for the char.
Load - Loads the settings from a profile. Any changes you then make will NOT be saved back to the profile.
Save to - Saves the current settings to the profile.
Delete - Deletes a profile. Be careful with this, you will be able to delete profiles used by other chars.
- Strata and Level options
Strata and Level decide how windows and objects the game's UI stack. Objects with a higher Strata will be shown over objects with a lower Strata. If the objects have the same Strata the one with a higher Level number will be shown over objects with a lower Level.
egs, 2 Windows, A and B. If A has a Strata of Medium and a level of 2, and B has a strata of High and a level of 2 then B will cover A. If A has a strata of Medium and a level of 3, and B has a strata of Medium and a level of 2, A will cover B. If B's strata is changed to High then it will cover A even though A has a higher level.
