MACRO framestack

Last wiki revision 2020-04-20

framestack shows all frames under the mouse cursor. It is part of the Blizzard DebugTools interface. The window will start in a corner of the screen, and move to another corner if moused over.

/framestack [showHidden, showregions, showAnchors] /fstack

  • showHidden : boolean string - default = CVar false - If hidden frames should be shown.
  • showregions : boolean string - default = CVar true - If regions of frames should be shown.
  • showAnchors : boolean string - default = CVar true - If anchor points should be shown but seems to be unused.

  • Pressing LEFT/RIGHT-ALT moves through the highlighted items.
  • Pressing CTRL inspects the selected table, i.e. /tinspect
  • Pressing SHIFT toggles showing texture information.
  • Pressing CTRL-C copies the texture path/name to the clipboard, provided texture information is toggled.
  • The used function will be tainted by error handling addons like BugSack and Swatter.
  • This does not interfere with any existing keybind. Both the Friends frame would be toggled and the texture name copied to clipboard simultaneously.
  • Any tables values cannot be copied to clipboard. Atlas names will not be copied. If there are multiple textures, only the last texture will be copied. (WoWUIBugs#16)
  • CVar controls whether the green mouseover texture highlight should be shown.
  • AtlasID - Some textures are comprised of multiple textures (atlases)
  • Viewing Blizzard's interface code - For exporting textures
