138 Kragenwar-3044
----------------------
139 Kragenwar-3044
The first time Kragenbars is loaded (either via an in-game plugin manager or by executing the command:
140 Kragenwar-3044
"/plugins load Kragenbars") your class will be automatically detected and default options selected. The
141 Kragenwar-3044
Kragenbars setup window will be displayed to further customize the available features.
142 Kragenwar-3044
 
143 Kragenwar-3044
Once you have configured Kragenbars with your class, you can access setup using:
144 Kragenwar-3044
 
145 Kragenwar-3044
/kragenbars setup
146 Kragenwar-3044
 
147 Kragenwar-3044
Other command:
148 Kragenwar-3044
/kragenbars refresh (forces Kragenbars to reprocess the level checking data; useful after leveling up
149 Kragenwar-3044
and training new skills at the trainer)

Known Issues
157 Kragenwar-3044
----------------------
158 Kragenwar-3044
-The API does not allow us to determine whether the client is in layout mode (CTRL + \) or not. Loading KragenBars while in layout mode will result in drag bars that display/hide when they should be doing the opposite. If this happens just unload and reload the plugin with layout mode turned off.
159 Kragenwar-3044
-KragenBars relies on effect names to change the state of your UI.  Because of this all features may not function properly on German and French clients.  We are in the midst of working on this, if you would like to help with effect name translation please PM KragenWar.
