How to remove default boss bar when using LUI ext?

RexyCat · September 2018

I searched LUI extended add on settings for how to do this, but can't find out how to turn off default boss bar and only use LUI ext. unit bars instead? It is very large compared to other bars and unnecessary when I have main unit boss bar from Lui.

Thankful for help on this!

If there is no setting in the stock ui, and I dont think there is. Then use an element mover mod and either remove the stock one, or move it so it is off screen and you dont see it.

I wrote a private addon to do just that. I suppose if there is some interest, I could release it on ESOUI

I never added an option to hide the default boss bar for LUIE - I probably should. If I start playing the game consistently again I'll take the time to add it.

@ArtOfShred That would be cool, as I've said above I wrote a little thing to disable the boss bar.

     do
      local framefunc = COMPASS_FRAME.SetBossBarActive
      function COMPASS_FRAME:SetBossBarActive(active)
	 Hacks.active = active
	 framefunc(self, Hacks.SV.showBossBar and active)
      end
   end

   if not Hacks.SV.showBossBar then
      COMPASS_FRAME:SetBossBarActive(false)
   end

I have this run once triggered by EVENT_PLAYER_ACTIVATED

This setup allows you to enable and disable the boss bar without reloading UI.
