CleanCastbar

1 - Vertical and Horizontal resizing

Aiiane,

Please consider implementing the horizontal and vertical resizing to the bar as well, instead of just corner based resizing.  I like the bar's aesthetic but at the size I need it to be to read the spellname, its a bit too thick.  If I could resize the bar to be thinner, that would be amazing.  Perhaps an option to put the text on top of or on the bottom of the bar as well instead of within?

    What I did was change the lines that looked like <AbsPoint x="418" y="36" /> to <AbsPoint x="418" y="18" /> and the line that looks like <AbsPoint x="500" y="40" /> to <AbsPoint x="500" y="20" />

    Now I have a thin castbar

    Right now in the name of K.I.S.S., this basically just replaces the window elements with identically named ones and lets the default Mythic code manage the cast bar. The upside of that is it's much less likely that patches will break the addon. The downside is that there are some things I can't really change while maintaining that simplicity, such as how it's registered with the layout editor (i.e. no side handles). If you'd like, you can edit the XML itself to make the bar thinner or shorter (you'd want to change the line that looks like <AbsPoint x="418" y="36" />) but I don't guarantee miracles.

    Maybe at some point in the future I'll move to a more comprehensive replacement (i.e. also replacing the code logic behind it), but right now this serves its purpose and is simpler to maintain.
