Unit Frame - hook into interface options for visibility

[sevelev]

Also, when "show in combat" is chosen, show the player frame when casting as well so you can see your cast bar when interacting with objects or mounting. I added this code to have the player frame only show when in combat and casting. it also stays visible after combat until the health bar is full:

function VikingUnitFrames:UpdateUnitFrame(tFrame, unit)

tFrame.wndUnitFrame:Show(unit ~= nil)

if unit ~= nil then
self:SetUnit(tFrame, unit)
self:SetUnitName(tFrame, unit:GetName())
self:SetClass(tFrame)
end

local unitPlayer = GameLib.GetPlayerUnit()
local nCasting = unitPlayer:ShouldShowCastBar()
local bInCombat = unitPlayer:IsInCombat()

if unitPlayer == nil then
return
end

if unitPlayer:GetMaxHealth() == unitPlayer:GetHealth() and not bInCombat and not nCasting then
self.tPlayerFrame.wndUnitFrame:Show(false)
else
self.tPlayerFrame.wndUnitFrame:Show(true)
end
end

I have yet to look at the settings pane. It's kind of scary 😛

If you could put that in a pull request we can look at getting it in.

I can't get it hooked into the default interface settings for visibility or the Viking settings. I have only figured out how to have it set to show in combat, during casting and when the health isn't full. So, it's not really ready for a pull until someone can figure out how to get the hook working.

I will see if I can figure out how Settings and Library work, to give you a config option to hook into.
