Bar related
Q: How do I configure a bar to hide when out of combat and show when in combat?
A: You need to set the out of combat alpha for fg and bg to 0 as well as the alpha clamp. Next setting is "Show with target" in the general menu. When this setting is checked and the bar has a value above 0 it is considered in combat. That option desperately needs a more descriptive name if you have a idea for a name please dont hesitate to post it.
Additionally any bar the does not have "slow changing value" set is considered in combat when is current value is below its max value. For HP/AP you normally want to leave it unchecked.
FG Alpha Out of Combat 0
FG Alpha Clamp 0
BG Alpha Out of Combat 0
Show with target unchecked
Slow changing value unchecked
Q: How can I create a floating/roaming/moving/whatever bar?
A: Configure the layout of your bar to you likeing and check "Attach to world object" from the sizes menu of that bar.
Q: My bar is half filled and doesn't seem to change at all.
A: Make sure that you bar is using the correct state. Sounds like it is set to default. See http://war.curseforge.com/projects/huduf/pages/huduf-v2-configuration-options/#w_states_2 for info about the states.
Q: HUDUF shows 52+++ on the mobs level but Moth shows 52++++ I think HUDUF shows the wrong value.
A: While looking similar the values of huduf and moth mean two different things. Both are correct. Moth displayes the difficulty of the mob while huduf displays the mobs so called tier (champion,hero,..). Your looking at a level 52 commander so huduf shows 52+++ moth displays the mob as level 52 extremly difficult (52l++++).
Q: Using a vertical bar the title/level/percentage label is cut of, how to fix?
A: Increase the width of the label. In default it is set to 0 which tells HUDUF to make the label as width as the bar. Try a value of 60.
Q: Using a vertical bar the title/level/percentage label is off center even if its told to display centered, how to fix?
A: Increase the width of the label. In default it is set to 0 which tells HUDUF to make the label as width as the bar.
Q: How can I truncate the lenght of a label and still have to proplerly centered?
A: Use the Max Charakters option for the labels options. It defaults to 14. The label text will be cut when reaching the amount of set characters.
