The Elder Bar

Required Libraries
LibAddonMenul
LibFoodAndDrinkBuff

What is it?
This addon adds an information bar on the screen, chocked full of information gadgets that update in real-time. Gadgets can be easily dragged and dropped in whatever order you prefer, you can set thresholds, go practically textless, allowing the icons themselves to tell you what you need to know. There are tons of options to configure each gadget.

Main Features

The Elder Bar can be unlocked, dragged, and dropped wherever you'd like it.
Individual gadgets can be unlocked, dragged, and dropped in any order.
It's actually two bars in one: you can have different icons on the bar while playing PvE content than you do in PvP.
Every gadget has options to display information however you like it. Want to go without text at all? Go for it! Want to set custom thresholds to warn you about weapon charges? Sure, it does that too. Want things to pester you when your durability goes too low? It can even handle that.
Timers can be automatically hidden when not in use. No need to clutter up the bar if you're not actually researching things, waiting for a cooldown timer, or you're not a vampire, right?
Every gadget has a tooltip that can display even more information, just by pointing at it with the mouse.
The Elder Bar can hide itself automatically, if that's your thing. Choices include talking to NPCs, visiting the bank, crafting, and more.
The bar can be scaled from 50% to 150% of it's normal size. You can also set bar opacity and the font.
Want to know when you're actually in combat? An optional setting turns the bar red when you are in combat.
Track mount training times across multiple characters. You can choose whether to track a character or not. Automatically stops tracking characters with mounts at maximum.
Track gold across multiple characters. You can choose whether to track a character or not.
Icons come in two variations: classic white and color. All icons have been fine-tuned to match. You won't find a mismatch assortment of colored icons, which makes seeing what's going on that much easier.
Sometimes coloring text just isn't enough to grab your attention. There are six different pulse settings to draw your attention to gadgets, when a critical threshold has been met: fade in, fade out, fade in/out, slow blink, fast blink, or none.

because I don't like it when the order of gadgets is changing.

thx fer considering

Then turn it off under the gadgets settings. The thresholds only fire when the current value falls below what you have set. In other words, Set the critical threshold to zero. As the enlightenment amount can’t fall below zero, the critical threshold won’t be triggered. That goes for all the threshold sliders.

I just installed Pixel Perfect and it is the cause, or rather, my addon has a problem with Pixel Perfect to be more exact. I'm working on changing the way the addon is hidden based on advice below in the comments and that should fix things.

You asked for it so here it comes (or be careful what youre wishing for)

1. I would leike to be able to group the gedgets in a way,
I see different possibilities for that:

- Divide the bar in 3 parts (Left aligned centerd and Right aligned part)
or
- Add an empty space gadget which defines a configurable fixed spacing between the gadgets.
this should be usable multiple times (with individual settings
or
- Just make each gagdet definable in its total fixed width (like you announced for the FPS gadget)
and give each gadget the possibility to be left aligned or centered or right aligned in it's space
I guess this would be the most flexible way to configure the bar and I would prefer this 3rd
suggestion even if it is more work to configure

2. As there are gagdets of different importance I would like to be able to set the sizes an fonts individually
for every gaget, I would prefer a solution to predefine 3 sizes and the to select one of these per gadget.

3. I like the style of your colored icons for the important gadgets as they are really an eyecatcher,
but I would prefer less prominent icons for the less important gadgets (like wykkyds toolbar)
And of course I would like to configure these individually per gagdet.

4. And at last I miss the following gagdets:

- Achievement points (like raetia infohub)
- Alliance ranks (with points to next rank) (like raetia )
- character name (like wykkyd toolbar)
- small XP bar (like wykkyd)
- seperate banked gold gadget with own icon
- event tickets
- telvar stones per character
- map coordinates

5. and with sooo many available gadgets one should be able to make at least 2 rows of gadgets.

6. Ah and there is one thing I was really missing when configuring the bar:
the height of the background of the bar should be configurable and the
vertikal position of the gadgets in it: I am playing ESO in a window with a regular border
and for me a small portion of the bar is hidden by this border,
therefore I had to place the border with something like 2 pixels offset which is rather difficult
to achieve manually. (But at last I did it)

Ok enough for now - I'm not demanding anything
But as you asked why I use the 3 bars - Elder - Wykkyd and raetia
to do these things I described above (wykkyd left-aligned - elder centerd - raetia right aligned)
and I for myself am satisfied with this solution.

PS: Excuse me if there are some of the things i mentioned already possible in Elder bar
I just began using it and hterefore I might have overlokked something

This is all good stuff. The separation of icons into groups is something that I've been recently thinking about myself. The next version of The Elder Bar will introduce icons that will color themselves based on the thresholds you've set, such as the Durability, Weapon Charge, Bag Space, etc gadgets. That means you can turn the text off to save space but still get the visual feedback. However, I've been thinking that if you go "icon only" that they need to be shuffled off to the side or something like that. Adding groups of gadgets isn't something I had thought about, so I'll look into it.

As for the rest, I'll have to see how feasible it is. I'm only one guy currently and I'm not super adept at the whole addon creation thing. But I'm also willing to implement some or all of this.
