I am someone who uses BigWigs but I am really wanting to swap to DBM, mainly to support you because you put so much effort into this. The only issue I have is aesthetics, the colour picker on DBM makes it very difficult to use specific colours, and (as far as I know), there are no additional themes for the bar styling. Colours pickers being swapped and/or support input for a hex code would be incredible useful. I am aware I can swap to using WeakAuras for the progress bars and this will solve my issue, but I'd rather not do that.
@@mysticalos That would be amazing, happy to test if/where necessary. As for bar styling, I might take a look into making a WeakAura for DBM, as I would like to have all DBM colouring and so on for bars, but integrating it with a WeakAura might be a bit more difficult.
It would be nice if in the raid leader global disable you could disable icon marking for all raid members' *except* the raid leader. Back in ICC, my classic guild gave everyone assist so that people can move groups and do things but presumably this means their DBM would now have authority sometimes. Perhaps I am wrong in assuming this is how it works, but I guess I'd like an option where no matter the assist level of players in the raid, DBM only listens to the raid leader's options.
@@mysticalos Yeah that's how we solved it, sometimes you do still want other players to have assist because they do things during the fight, I'll admit it's not a very frequent use-case. I initially assumed that the Raid Leader controls would override everyone else's DBM settings except their own. In my mind, it makes the most sense to use the RL global override to disable other players' settings because you are already in control of your own settings. For example, at 4:35 I could choose to disable my own icon marking, and then at 11:35 I could disable everyone else's icon marking. Then if I later wanted icon marking back, I could renable it for myself whilst keeping it disabled for the raid. But yeah I agree, it's pretty easy to remove assist from everyone else, I guess I just figured we don't need a global override that disables everyone (including my own) settings, since there are already overrides/options to disable my own settings?
Hey! I just wanna say that you're pretty cool :)
Thanks. you are too for such kind words

I want to have the hex input added before TWW launches, i'm gonna poke again about getting this done.

I lied, it wasn't. Super easy actually.
Thanks for sharing 👍
Thanks for watching. hope you found what you were looking for

technically you just do that making only rl have assist. but i see what you’re saying. can probably add a checkbox that says “except raid leader”
