Hello,
in the middle of the sphere can so much things be displayed. But why are not the function available, that in the middle of the sphere are the time displayed, how long a shaman must wait before his spell "reincarnation" (I don't know if this name of the spell are right in the english version - I play another language instead of english) are ready to use again?
The addon "Totemus" is like the LunarSphere, but only for shamans and there are one of this function. So the shaman see the timer always in the middle. There is a simple totem time counter implemented, but in an another thread Moongaze means, that this is not part of LunarSphere, however.
The main topic of this thread is only the counter of the spell to ressurect himself.
Greetings, Dar.

This type of functionality is coming in a later stage.

I haven't gone back to the sphere gauge and text events to add new stuff. A lot of people have suggested cooldown timers and more for various things on the sphere text. I will be adding a sphere text event called "Custom Cooldown" which will let you drag a spell or item to an assignment box and LS will display the cooldown of that spell or item on the sphere text. This works for any spell and any item you want, so it's not specifically aimmed towards a Shaman. I hope to get this feature, along with a ton of new sphere text and gauge events, added in Stage 6 or Stage 7 of the beta. I'm still working on the larger parts of the addon first before knocking out the simple, small parts. Trust me, I can't WAIT to get to Stage 6 and 7. Those are going to be easy for me, and fun to make ... well, except for the templates ... and the memory management code ... oh, and the speech library stuff, haha.

he dosnt mean draggable just a timer like what some mods do ie Titan Ankh Cooldown Timer. And you can use a macro to move it anyway

Hmmm, that could put a hamper on things, eh? I'll figure something out for that. I'm trying to avoid hard-coding spells into LS ... but I might have to do it for some things I guess...

I think it would be a nice function with the custom cooldown. So for shamans there must be a implemented function scripted Or a other method like macros, but I don't know if it works.

The other option would be a text box for users to actually type in the name of the thing to track. Of course, you would need to know the name of the Shaman self-rez to get that to work... We'll see

Actually, you CAN drag Reincarnation to a LS button because it is a Spell. You just can't drag it to the "Action" Bar because it's a "Passive" skill.
So the temporary solution to this is to drag it to one of the buttons (on any click) and make the cooldown for that button be for that click (even if you don't set the icon to be that click, though that might get confusing). Therefore, theoretically, if Moon does implement the sphere button in the same way as the buttons around the sphere (in such a way that they can still take Reincarnation) and implements the cooldown showing, then the code should still work and allow you to use the Reincarnation cooldown timer on the main sphere.
EDIT: Yes, I do have a shaman with Reincarnation and I do have it on a sphere button, that's how I know.

Nice I wasn't sure it it showed up in the spell book on the General tab or another tab like the other passives (No shammy =). So, I guess it will work out anyway. As for the assignment box, yeah, it will be the same code as the button assignment boxes, so it will work just fine. Too bad I don't have an easy way to find out every proc that the character can have pop on them (from weapons, talents, etc) with an easy method. If I did, I can imagine doing some fun stuff later with the speech libraries ...

That's because a lot of the bar addons use action buttons and action slots, which WOW won't let you assign the passive stuff. Mine are all programmed secure buttons that will store anything that is attached to the cursor ... except money ...
