Recently in the hotfix on the 25th of march it broke the button addon I use button forge which prevented it from showing my spell cooldowns in combat and after a week I managed to patch it myself to use the new cooldown API functions blizzard intend using with SetCooldownFromDurationObject for the cooldowns but doing that I have discovered the functionality like showing fractured souls count on the two spells soul cleave and spirit bomb on demon hunters or bone charges on marrowrend on death knights is no longer possible as blizzard have blocked those values from being accessed by addons in combat. On the default blizzard bars which are limited to 12x1. 6x2, 4x3, 3x4, 2x6 and 1x12 unlike button forge show values of fractured souls count on the two spells soul cleave and spirit bomb on demon hunters or bone charges on marrowrend on death knights on the spells but I cannot access those values for button forge which is affecting my gameplay a bit as seeing bone charges on a dk tank can be the difference between life and death.
Is there anyway blizzard can allow addons to read these values like button forge or perhaps create a secure frame addon creators can use for buttons allowing any shape and size unlike the default wow bars which would allow button forge to read those values again or just use the idea of button forge and just put it in wow it would be so much better for bars.
It’s annoying as button forge is the addon me and many others use because the wow bars are to limited in terms of size and layout.
