is it possible to have a 2nd Grp Health Window...
Iv been Playing with Netbots and its pretty cool all the things you could do, I was wondering if there was a way to make a 2nd grp health window for a 2nd grp in my raid using net bots. Where Would i find info on doing this, Im guessing it wouldnt be to hard, you would just change where it pulls the information its showing from but i honestly have never messed with UI's so i have no idea..
Part of the UI Example is taken from (http://www.macroquest2.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=12157)
Macro
From First glace it looks really simple changing
<TooltipReference>${Group.Member[1].Class.ShortName}</TooltipReference>
to
<TooltipReference>${NetBots.Client.Token[1]}</TooltipReference>
Any info would be wonderful, trying to teach myself on my own.
[/syntax]
<Label item ="Group1_Class">
<ScreenID>T_Class</ScreenID>
<EQType>9999</EQType>
<TooltipReference>${Group.Member[1].Class.ShortName}</TooltipReference>
<Font>1</Font>
<RelativePosition>true</RelativePosition>

MQ2EmuCharacters if you want honest to goodness health and mana bars (and customizable buttons!). MQ2Hud for the text only version.

You are on the right path to extend functionality of a UI window. It has been a long time since I tinkered with a UI mod though, so I can not help much.
I would not use the Token reference though because you will not have control over who is where in the list. Call it out by toon name. Not sure what that would do for the toons not online though. Would need to test it out.

If you get that working well on gold ... please let me know how you got over the window running off the screen? I run 12 minimum and usually 18, but the HUD runs off the screen when I get past 10 toons. Would love to know how to strip that Gold HUD down to health and mana for each toon looged on.

There is an alternate pod graphic included just for this. It's Wnd_Character2, its 55 pixels tall instead of 80. So if you can fit 10 now you should be able to fit 14 with that one. It is possible to go as short as you want, just add the pod graphics and declare them in MQUI_Master.xml the same way the others are.
You could also not do the graphics and just change the height of each window and it will have the same result the graphics will just be a bit blurry since they'd be getting resized.
An example of the INI that will use to 55pixel pod is here: http://mqemulator.net/forum2/viewtopic.php?t=808
