The Winter Glowup

Hey friends!

Sorry that we haven't blogged in a while, but most of our work in the last few months has been on bug fixing, especially for Classic.

But! The next release will contain at least one big and a few small new features. We expanded our sub element system by adding a new Glow one, this means that you can now add multiple glows to stuff like icons, and finally, add glow to progress bars as well.

For icons there's little change except that the glow settings are now in a different place and that you can add multiple ones, as for progress bars, we support adding glows to various parts of them:

Foreground
Background
Icon
Bar

As you can see in the gif above you can choose where exactly the glow is attached. And these glows support all the options you know from icons, that is the colors the width of the lines, the speed can all be configured via the display tab or even via conditions.

As a reminder, the other two recently added sub elements are Borders and Models on Progress Bars.

We also added "Help" buttons to our custom code sections that gives people a link to our wiki where we document everything, Raid Marker text replacements (only supports {rt1} and your current locale version for now) and a new toolbar that lets you quickly create or import a new aura from wherever you currently are in the options.
