That’s it, really, your frame will be draggable. TestAddon_MainFrame:StopMovingOrSizing() FontString where will be real coordinate you can find in the bottom,Īctually that enough with XML, but as I promised lets make the frame draggable.

Point of $parent_xString (or TestAddon_MainFrame_xString, see the name of the in Ok lets try to clarify that, TOPLEFT point of your FontString will be positioning relatively to BOTTOMLEFT I just would like to say about Anchors in the second FontString.Īs you can see there is new attributes: point, relativeTo, relativePoint. I think you can understand most part of this xml. I will describe first two.Īnd open main.xml from github to easy understand My layer contains several FontString, this is just an element for text. Layers and there is no any wrong about this. I made just one layer for our information that enough, mostly it matter of architecture, you can make several Now more functional part of xml file, layers Layer info. īgFile="Interface\Tooltips\UI-Tooltip-Background" texture for backgroundĮdgeFile="Interface\Tooltips\UI-Tooltip-Border" texture for border Now let’s make our window more attractive.

Main.xml files, actually you can write here only your xml file, because it include another lua files. # Notes: Show your coordinates, azimyth and pitch description # Title: Test Addon title of your addon, can be more readable # Interface: 60100 version of the game where your addon should work, if it less than last version, in the game you will see warning about out of date addon. TOCĬreate a ColorEncode.toc file, with this content: # Interface: 60100 Actually I doing it, I have lua/ and xml/ folders. Of course, you can create directories in the main addon folder.
