Change Log:
--------------------
AzCastBar Changes | 2009 Jan 10
- New anchor settings added for multi bar pluging. You can modify in which direction the bars will grow, top, bottom, left or right. An anchor offset can also be set. You should update to the newest plugins to support this.
- Removed some obsolete "OnEditMode" code from the castbar and mirror plugins as well as the options.
AzCastBar Changes | 2008 Dec 22
- The bars are no longer created as top level frames, meaning they should no longer be "popping" on top of other frames when shown.
- Bars showing the total time will now show two decimals instead of just one, for better precision with haste ratings.
- CastBar: Pets you are in possession of, will now show their cast bar using the player cast bar instead of the pet bar. Really nice for all the new WotLK quests.
- Mirror: Corrected an error that could occur if you had a mirror bar showing, when turning on "Edit Mode".
- Mirror: Now supports the option "Also Show Total Time".
- Options: Fixed a problem where the option dialog went blank for options, at least I hope so, it's been somewhat hard for me to reproduce, so please let me know if it's still a problem.
- Options: Changed how "Edit Mode" works. It's now a lot more clean, since it uses its own bars, instead of modifying the bar of each plugin.
- All functions which were previously global, those named "AzCastBar_***", has now been moved into a table named "AzCastBar" to lower the global namespace pollution. This change will require all plugins to be updated.
AzCastBar Changes | 2008 Oct 22
- Fixed a cast bar problem, where it would say interrupted and hide itself when casting a spell, if you tried to cast another spell.
- Added an option to show the total duration of the cast.
AzCastBar Changes | 2008 Oct 18
- Changed the TOC version to 30000 for the Wrath of the Lich King patch.

AzCastBar Changes | 2008 Mar 21
- Default setting for the "SafeZone Indication" is now false due to the fact that this feature isn't so much needed anymore.
- Added an option to hide the text label on the bar as well as the text indicating the time.
- New option to set the text alignment of the Bar Label.
- The drop down menus in the options now have a scrollbar. If you have a lot of shared media items, they should no longer drop off the screen.

- The Options received a big optimization as well.
- The profile loader under the options will now only load settings for bar plugins which is currently loaded.

AzCastBar Changes | 2007 Aug 21
- Fixed a problem which would hide the castbar, if you tried to cast something new while the GCD from a channeled spell was still up (e.g. spamming the mind flay button).
- Options: Added "Enable Bar" option.
- A problem causing the cast to go out of sync, when the cast bars gets hidden by calling up the map or hiding the UI with Alt+Z, has been fixed.
- Fixed an error when clicking on a cast bar when the options had not yet been loaded.
- When moving the bars with the mouse in "Edit Mode", the option frame for the current bar will now be updated accordingly.
AzCastBar Changes | 2007 Aug 16
- Options: Added slider for the castbar backdrop indent.
- Fixed an issue that made the castbars appear "laggy" the longer your computer uptime was. The cause of this was due to LUA cutting off decimals on large numbers.
- Made the option dialog Load on Demand.
- Did a lot of restructuring of the entire mod.
- Added profiles which you can load, save and delete manually. These settings are stored with the Load on Demand Option Dialog, so the saved entries will not take up memory until the Options is loaded.
- Recoded a lot of how the settings are stored, this means your old config is lost, sorry.
- The Texture drop down should now show the correct selected texture.
AzCastBar Changes | 2007 Jul 19
- Updated TOC to 20200 for the 2.2.0 patch.

Description:
--------------------
AzCastBar
A highly customizable and lightweight casting bar replacement mod with support for saved profiles and plugins.
Originally comes with the following plugins: casting bar for player, target, focus and pet, as well as a mirror bar. The Mirror Bar is the one which shows breath, feign death and fatigue.
The option dialog along with the saved profiles are Load on Demand which means it will only be loaded once you open the Options.
The player cast bar supports safe zone indication. This is basically your latency, when the spellcast has passed this point, you can safely cancel the cast and have the spell still fire.
The slash command for AzCastBar is /acb. Using it will open the the option dialog.
