  Must be parented to the Experience widget if used.

Colors

This plug-in adds colors for experience (normal and rested) as well as honor.
Accessible through oUF.colors.experience and oUF.colors.honor.

Notes

• A default texture will be applied if the widget(s) is a StatusBar and doesn't have a texture set.
• Tooltip and mouse interaction options are only enabled if the element is mouse-enabled.
• Backgrounds/backdrops must be parented to the Rested sub-widget if used.
• Toggling honor-tracking is done through the PvP UI
• Remember to set the plug-in as an optional dependency for the layout if not embedding.

Example implementation

-- Position and size
local Experience = CreateFrame('StatusBar', nil, self)
Experience:SetPoint('BOTTOM', 0, -50)
Experience:SetSize(200, 20)
Experience:EnableMouse(true) -- for tooltip/fading support

-- Position and size the Rested sub-widget
local Rested = CreateFrame('StatusBar', nil, Experience)
Rested:SetAllPoints(Experience)

-- Text display
local Value = Experience:CreateFontString(nil, 'OVERLAY')
Value:SetAllPoints(Experience)
Value:SetFontObject(GameFontHighlight)
self:Tag(Value, '[experience:cur] / [experience:max]')

-- Add a background
local Background = Rested:CreateTexture(nil, 'BACKGROUND')
Background:SetAllPoints(Experience)
Background:SetTexture('Interface\\ChatFrame\\ChatFrameBackground')

-- Register with oUF
self.Experience = Experience
self.Experience.Rested = Rested
