Being in 5 guilds, it would be nice to be able to tell which guild someone is a member of by color when I mouse over them Cheers

This addon does not show distance. Are you sure that you are using this addon?

But anyway, a few months ago (I think it was in June, patch 1.2.2) ZOS changed function GetMapPlayerPosition(unitTag), so it only works for player himself. It's not possible to get coordinates of the highlighted unit, so there is no way to calculate distance between you and the target.

ahhh you are right, it is this addon:

http://www.esoui.com/downloads/info3...chv1.5.2b.html in the image you see on the right 2m distance.

and what you say makes sence, guesse that is the reason why it shows incorrect distance values.

Thanks for the quick response, cheers

There is no way for addon to select your target, all targeting functions are private (i.e. they can't be used by addons).

I wasn't clear enough, my apologies.

There was another reticle addon or some other addon that would allow the option of not showing a target popup on your screen if the object was say a frog or something insignificant (yellow).

I'll have another look and see if I can't find it.

Ah, I see. You don't want to see critter's name. There is easy way how to do it:
- open RainbowReticle.lua in text editor
- find line 119:

Lua Code:

if max > 1 then

- change it to:

Lua Code:

if max > 10 then

- save .lua file and if your game is running, reload UI to apply changes.

Changed to:

Lua Code:

color:SetRGB(GetUnitReactionColor(unitTag))
   if savedVars.enableAll then
      local current, max = GetUnitPower(unitTag, POWERTYPE_HEALTH)
      if max > 10 then
         name = GetFormatedUnitName(unitTag, target)
      end
   end

Still no go:
