[Request]Countdown on CD abilities
 

Hi !

I don't think it has been requested yet, and I'm pretty sure it's not yet available as an addon, but I think most of us would appreciate a simple addon that displays a countdown on abilities that are under cooldown. This would provide more visibility than the simple darkened area on the ability. :)

I am thinking of something similar to Omni CC in WoW :



Thanks ! :)

(Sorry if my English isn't that good : I'm French)

I plan on doing this when we're given more to the API, however, if you're interested in just icons with cooldown I did make a version of RecastBox that looks like this:

RecastBox Icons

However, I haven't released this version yet; It was more of a test to see how I could change the UI without altering anything else :p. Essentially it's a "Skin" for RecastBox.

Great, thanks !
(Also thanks for the addon, but I'm more thinking of the countdown on the actual action bars we have, as you certainly have guessed. ^^)

I like this sort of addon, but a thing that might be a problem is reactive abilities that already have cooldown number in the middle, although probably someone smarter than me has figured out a fix for this.

I guess the addon could just have a "ban list" of abilities in the code that won't display the countdown. That's not the cleaniest way to do it, but I assume it would work.

Also, if nobody is up to develop such an addon when they will be back (1.5, apparently), I'll give a shot... =)

Unfortunately, we can't really inspect, edit or attach anything to the default UI yet.
