This project is now abandoned as it does not have enough going for it for me to want to dedicate time to it rather than forth-coming projects. Feel free to grab this and use it however and for whatever you want.

This is a simple mod that creates a new, bigger, better Action Point Bar. The bar includes text showing your 'Current AP / Max AP', Percentage, 'out of combat (ooc) hider', 'no Action Point Change (APC) hider' and a 'Spark'.

The bar is moveable and sizeable via the layout editor. Upon first time loading the bar will be in the far top-left of the screen.

After changing any setting such as size or slash setting, please type /reloadui in your chat box. This ensures that the changes are implemented properly.

Please report any errors or suggestions to me.

Features :

A spark - This is a vertical red bar that moves across the AP bar in sync with your action point regen. This is designed to help those who wish to get the most from their AP. However due to the nature of AP regen, the Spark isn't always accurate and therefore there are parameters set to make sure it recovers from the inconsistencies in the regen timings.
This function is ON by default, to configure type /apbar spark [1 / 0] (1 to enabled or 0 to disable)

Out Of Combat (OOC) hide. This automatically hides your AP Bar when you leave combat and shows it again when you enter combat. This is done by fading animation so that it looks nice ;) .
This function is OFF by default, to configure type /apbar autohide ooc

No Action Point Change (APC) hide. This automatically hides your AP Bar when your AP hasn't changed for 5 seconds. When your AP changes the bar will fade into view again.
This function is OFF by default, to configure type /apbar autohide apc

Bar Colour now changes from Yellow to Red as your action points decreases.

You will need LibSlash for these to work, LibSlash can be found on war.curse.com.
