If you have LibSlash installed, settings can be set via /sqr or /squared. The syntax is as follows: /squared option value(s) - if you omit any values, the current value of the setting will be displayed instead.
So for instance, to set the border color, I'd use the following command:
- /sqr bordercolor 100 50 100
If you don't have LibSlash, you can get and set options via /script and Lua function instead:
- /script Squared.GetSetting("option")
- /script Squared.SetSetting("option", value)
To reset all settings to their default values, use the following command (capitalization counts):
- /script Squared.ResetSettings()
Help with values:
- Settings that are toggles can be set to (true, on, 1 or yes) to activate them, or (false, off, 0, or no) to deactivate them.
- Settings that are numbers can be set to any number.
- Settings that are directions typically have 4 options: (up, down, left, right)
- Settings that are colors are set as RGB (red, green, blue) triplets, which can be entered with most normal separators, spaces included.
The following default settings are available for Squared (in addition to the color customization options):
| Setting | Default | Description |
| fgcolor | 0 150 0 | The default color of the bars. |

| boxheight | 68 | The height of each bar. |
| boxwidth | 68 | The width of each bar. |
| bordersize | 4 | The size of the border around each bar. |
| alpha | 1.0 | The tranparency value for each bar (1.0 = opaque, 0.0 = invisible). |
| namelength | 5 | The length to which names are truncated. |
| showicon | true | Whether or not to show the icons on bars (for now, just class icons). |
| showmenu | true | Whether or not to enable right-clicks showing the options menu for units in group/warband mode. |
| direction-group | down | The direction in which groups are ordered away from the anchor. |
| direction-member | right | The direction in which group members are ordered away from the first member of the group. |
| direction-column | down | The direction in which columns of groups expand. |
| spacing-group | 0 | If this value is greater than 0, it will add a gap between each group in the layout. |
| spacing-member | 0 | If this value is greater than 0, it will add a gap between the borders of each member in a group. |
| spacing-column | 0 | If this value is greater than 0, it will add a gap between each column of groups. |
| columnsize | 0 | If this value is greater than 0, it will set how many groups are added to a column before the next column is created. |
| direction-fill | up | The direction in which the health bar fills within the unit's box. |
| invert-bars | false | If set to true, bars will become more filled the less HP a unit has. The default setting of false means that bars are more filled with more HP. |
| disable | false | Whether or not to disable Squared from appearing entirely. |
| disable-default | false | Whether or not to disable the solo-player display mode. |
| disable-group | false | Whether or not to disable the group display mode. |
| disable-warband | false | Whether or not to disable the warband display mode. |

| rangefading-freq | 0 | How often to update range fading, in seconds. Default is 0 (every frame). |
| rangefading-min | 0.2 | A multiplier for the "alpha" value, this sets the initial (least visible) state of fading. For instance, if the regular alpha is 0.8, then having this at 0.2 would result in the frame being initially faded to overall alpha of 0.16 and then getting more visible over time. |
| rangefading-max | 0.5 | A multiplier for the "alpha" value, this sets the final (most visible) state of fading. A frame will fade up this alpha times this, then "pop" up to alpha when it is no longer doing is fading. Setting this to 1.0 means that a frame will fade smoothly all the way back to the regular alpha value, with no "pop" at the end. |
| status-size | 10 | The size of the corner status indicators. |
|
This is not currently supported and may cause indicators to not display properly. | ||

| status-hot-selfonly | Disabled as of patch 1.0.6 | Whether or not to filter the hot indicator to only show hots that you cast on players. Currently disabled as Mythic removed the necessary info in 1.0.6, hopefully will be possible again once 1.1 arrives. |
| bufftracking-freq | 0.5 | How often SquaredBuffIndicators updates its indicators. |
| text-position-name | center | Where the unit's name is displayed. Possible values are center, top, bottom, or none. |
| text-position-hp | none | Where the unit's health percentage is displayed. Possible values are center, top, bottom, or none. |
| text-position-level | none | Where the unit's career rank is displayed. Possible values are center, top, bottom, or none. |

| text-align-bottom | center | The alignment of the text in the top text area. Recommended values are "center", "leftcenter", or "rightcenter". |
| deplete-off | false | Setting this option to true will cause the boxes to always be completely filled, if you prefer to not have the bar-like effect but instead just have them change color/text. Setting it to false will return to the standard bar-like functionality of the fill. |
| icon-position | center | Sets the anchoring of the center icon. Possible values are center (default), left, right, top, bottom, topleft, topright, bottomleft, bottomright. |
| icon-offset-x | 0 | Sets the horizontal position relative to the anchor point of the icon. Negative values are to the left, positive values to the right. |
| icon-offset-y | 0 | Sets the vertical position relative to the anchor point of the icon. Negative values are upwards, positive values are downwards. |
| icon-scale | 0 | Forces a particular scaling for the class icon. Setting this to 0 will have Squared use its own method for determining how to size the icon. Setting it to anything above 0 will use that exact scaling (if you want to change this, start at 1 and work larger/smaller from there). |
| testmode | false | Setting this to turn will turn on a test mode that displays a random set of 4 groups with 6 members each (with varying health levels and classes) to allow for visual preview of changes without joining a larger group. Set it to false again to turn it off. |

| key-assist-final | false | If this is true, using the modifier key for assisting when clicking on a unit will not also target that unit. If it is false, then clicking with the modifier key will both assist and target the unit. |

Aiiane Thu, 30 Oct 2008 01:28:10@crackerjap: No, sorry.
@jujdred: You probably need to change either direction-group or direction-member again (you might have typo'd a value).
@Jackard: not currently possible.
@Talc: Not handled by Squared.
@Ramshackles: Not currently, sorry.
@WNxSvarog: You can use /script slash("squared OPTION VALUE") in a macro.
@Tuetatesu: Open a ticket about it.

crackerjap Wed, 29 Oct 2008 00:03:28Ok... first of all I love this mod.. used in conjunction with healbot makes life as a healer so much easier.
But I have a question. I might be too dumb to realize how to do it... but is there a way to make groups appear in a 4 square pattern? 2 groups on top and 2 on bottom?

jujdred Tue, 28 Oct 2008 16:20:57Love the mod. Until I tried to maek players appear from right to left and down to up. Then it just became a nightmare. They go across my screen now and will not begin new rows. It's one long continuous row. How do I fix this?

Morphor Mon, 27 Oct 2008 23:50:24Im tryng to do Squared with HP-colored bars and im having no sucess someone can teach me plz??
- #87
Jackard Mon, 27 Oct 2008 11:56:17How would I go about adding padding to noncentered text and icons, so they are not on the very edge of the bar? How would you push the icons outside of the bar?
- #86
Talc Sun, 26 Oct 2008 16:43:23I'd like to keep the default party window when I'm in a party, but when I'm in a scenario, I'd like to disable everything else except my self default bars and keep squared up. is there a way to do this?
Are there commands to hide windows like party window and warband windows?
- #85
Ramshackles Sun, 26 Oct 2008 16:03:04Just wondering if there were any way to be able to seperate the groups? Maybe even to the extent where you could have seperate settings for a group.
I use Squared instead of my own player frame and party frame, but entering a warband or scenario group I'd like groups other than mine to be smaller.
- #84
WNxSvarog Sun, 26 Oct 2008 02:51:10Is there a way to set these commands using the ingame "Macro" buttons? My squares sometimes reset when the game crashes. Thanks in advance.
- #83
Tuetatesu Fri, 24 Oct 2008 22:08:33One more setting I thought of. I'd love to see ONLY the action points of other healers rather then all action points from all classes.
That way I know if I need to cover for another healer that is low or out of action points and I won't have to look in a sea of numbers for the healers action points. It's a little spamish to have all the numbers up.

Tuetatesu Fri, 24 Oct 2008 15:27:07Enjoying your mod... one question. Is there a way to disable my group show showing up inside Squared? I like to have my default group window up and use Squared for all the other people... warparty and scenarios.
