Beastlord resizable Bar // NPC Spellcast Monitor
Can someone please upload the Beastlord resizable hot bar // NPC spell cast Monitor. That would be appreciated thanks.
I just want to add those 2 things to my current UI compilation. If not I understand I'll download the full install and go from there.

Currently the only way to change the color of the casting bar is by editing the file directly like you did, although the upcoming window utility has new controls for several customizable DarqUI windows including this one. The new utility also addresses the issue of the spell monitor always opening to the default size.

A recent re-write of the threat window has reduced the complexity of the window considerably, so I would feel better about putting in some more options for layout customization. I'm trying to get the new utility and some other updates out the door, so I can't necessarily work on it immediately, but I will definitely take another look at it soon.
If you want to announce specific spells as they are being cast, use the Spell Monitor for that. The detriment announcements (threat window) only react to what has already been cast on you. Generally if you will stack the two together, you can give your raid a pretty good idea of what's hitting you.

The hotbar window linked below should do what you want. Everything is the same as the DarqUI hotbar except the frames are tucked in under the icons. This version makes more sense after SOE made it easier to move hotbars around with F10, although players get very flipped out when you mess with their hotbars so the current version is staying on the patcher. Replace your hotbar file with this, then re-stretch the frame of each of your hotbars to make the border snap under the icons:
darqui-hotkey-noborder.zip
Awesome, thank you very much I'll definitely check it out!!!
The NPC Spellcast Monitor is built on the Tagging window, so (Ctrl+Shift+T) should show the monitor, or you can right-click your Target window and choose Tag from the pop-up context menu. Stretch the window vertically to show the spell listener area. Unfortunately, the Tagging window won't stay visible between sessions, so you have to re-open it every time you log in with a different character.

The threat window does have a lot going on, but that's by design. You can turn off the spellcast bar and target's target health display to simplify it a bit. I have recently re-coded this window (in testing now) to use the new cureplayer commands for self-cures, and it can be stretched out a bit wider than the current version. Also the issue you are having with the cursor should go away with the new version.

Customization
Hello..
First of all, so far excellent UI
I do have a few things regarding customization...
Hotbars - Is there a way to remove the outter-most padding from around the entire hotbars so I can put all of them together instead of having a space inbetween each one? I'm not talking about cell padding either, this is a pad around the entire hotbar.
Spell Timer aka Casting bar - I'm trying to get this to show up so I can change the color and all, is there way to do this through the window utility? Maybe even provide an option to put it inside the threat window?
Threat Window - do you plan on implementing different versions of this? Right now, its a little cluttery, one on top of another which makes it slightly hard to look at and I can't stretch it out as far as I really need it either.
Sorry for the stupid questions! But thanks in advance!

Hi kinaddin, the attack bars are located at the bottom of the threat window. Make sure the frame is stretched low enough to see them. They only appear when you are in combat.

LittleMagica, are you referring to the Quick Setup feature in the utility program? If so, try typing the undetected name with the diacritic directly onto the form. Quick Setup should finish correctly using the name you type.

Valteron, you haven't missed anything feature-wise. I've tried to keep the basic architecture of the DarqUI windows consistent with the default, so that a user transitioning to DarqUI will log in to find everything basically in the same place where they left it. Some of the other large interfaces do give you the option of setting up your window locations for you, but DarqUI takes the approach that you already have the persistent windows (hotbars, chat, target, etc.) set up to your liking.

If I download the updater will I be able to pick and choose which windows to use the darq ui mods with or will it convert all of the windows?
Thanks for you time!

Juravael, the utility can be used to download just a subset (or just one) of the DarqUI windows if that's your choice. Go to the Updates tab and check the "Accept" or "Skip" column for each window depending on what you want. Then press "Update Now" to download only the accepted files. The updater tab will remember which files you prefer to skip over. And the utility will not try to set up or replace anything that is not a DarqUI window.
