Target castbar not visible

[Zathriam]

For some reason I am unable to see the target castbar, unless me or my pet is the target.
The same thing goes for focus target and target of target, again, unless I've set myself/pet as focus or is the target of the target.

Not sure if I've missed a memo and this is the way Blizzard have decided it should be now, or if the addon is broken.

I'm getting a few error messages too.
edit Just to clarify. The error messages are popping up when targeting a different unit casting spells, other than myself.
I hope this is something that can be solved.

Hostile target stuff appears to be hidden behind secrets now.

[Zathriam]

Hopefully Blizzard will come to their senses and ease up on all these ridiculous restrictions.
All the castbars can be found on the unitframes anyway, so I don't quite see point of blocking this.

In my futile search for a suitable replacement for the now broken SUF, I have found some unitframe addons that have detachable and scaleable unitframe castbars, so that's a workaround I guess.
Not sure if you might be able to use that somehow.

But these other addons all lack the customizability of Gnosis.
Can't get completely configurable bar dimensions, bar textures, colours, fonts/sizes, etc. etc.
They're just not good enough for castbar replacements. (Not even good enough for configuring unitframes tbh, but that's a different issue.)

[Nillx]

Hm, there are some addons that have a movable target bar, addons like Unhalted Unit Frames.

Also is it somehow possible to copy the cast bar from the target nameplate? Or all ofthat is hidden too somehow?

Haven't looked at it. Suspect it may be something tied to the target frame itself.

Blizz killed that stuff ages ago when people were using nameplates to build fixed location target lists they could just mouseover.
