L2R UI Workshop: Grid

In today's UI Workshop, Sora goes over the popular raid frame addon "Grid" with a fine tooth comb. From basic setup to addon modules to raiding benefits, nothing is left out of our Grid breakdown. Healers and non healers alike have relied on Grid's minimalistic but informative layout and approach for years. Providing many uses for players of all skill level, the mod has become a staple in the raiding environment. Like any popular addon, Grid has undergone multiple changes and updates but hopefully through watching our in-depth guide, every player can find a use for and a better understanding of what this powerful addon brings to their UI.

Blizzard has indeed a section under Interface>Raid Profiles where you can configure these raid frames. The tap in the left side of your screen will roll out a menu including the "Hide" button to hide the frames. Great video.

[cmdgbn]

I'm guessing all the people that comment on how much more configurable grid is than vuhdo have either never actually looked at all the options in vuhdo or used it before it had fully developed. I started out using grid but switched to vuhdo once bouquets were added. I find it much more customizable in both how it looks and with what I can do with it. Grid is still in my adding folder and kept up to date in case there is an issue. But atm vuhdo is working on the ptr so it looks like it will be s
