CooldownGlows

CooldownGlows

Highlights action bar buttons with a proc glow when spell/item cooldowns finish.

Features

• Spell tracking — Add spells by ID, glow when cooldown ends
• Charge-aware — Spells with charges only glow when all charges are full
• Item tracking — Add items by ID, glow when off cooldown
• Glow colors — Choose from 10 colors (Default, White, Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, Orange, Purple, Pink, Cyan)
• Per-class profiles — Separate spell/item lists per class
• Per-character profiles — Override class profile for specific characters
• Duration control — Auto-hide glow after configurable seconds
• Combat-only mode — Suppress glows outside combat
• Manual Assignment — Precisely map abilities strictly to your expected UI layout targets.
• Precision Tracking — Operates natively on a .1s active background evaluation hook for maximum accuracy bypassing broken throttled Events.
• Combat-safe — No taint-prone API calls; uses visual cooldown state and static assignment mappings for unbreakable in-combat stability.
• Zero dependencies — Self-contained proc glow system, no external libraries required
• Debug tools — /cdg cache and /cdg test for troubleshooting

Usage

Type /cdg or /cooldownglows in-game to open the settings panel (deferred automatically if you are in combat).

Command	Description
/cdg	Open settings
/cdg test	Trigger glows on all tracked buttons
/cdg cache	View spell/item → button mappings

• General tab — Combat-only toggle, debug mode, active profile info
• Class tab — Edit spell/item list for your class
• Character tab — Create/delete a character-specific override

Each tracked entry has an Edit ⚙ button to modify duration and color, and a Remove ✕ button to delete it.

Behavior

When a tracked spell or item's cooldown finishes (transitions from on-cooldown to ready), the addon triggers a proc glow on its action bar button for a configurable number of seconds before fading out.

Spells with Charges: Only glow when maximum charges are reached. This is a known limitation of the WoW 12.0 API, as current charge counts are restricted ("secret") values in combat.
