What it does
Grid2 lays out party and raid members as a grid of small boxes. You add indicators wherever you want inside a box and pick which piece of information, called a status, each one shows: health, debuffs, range and so on.
Indicator types are icon, icons, square, text, bar and multibar. The list of statuses is long but not everything is turned on at first, so expect to look through the settings and enable what you need.
It suits healers in particular. Paired with Clique you can click the boxes to cast spells.

FAQ
Where are the mana bars?
They are not created by default. Make a new indicator of type "bar", place it, and map the "mana" or "power" status to it. Map a color status to the bar color indicator as well.
I can't pack the boxes as tightly as before.
Under Indicators, border, Layout tab, set the border size to 1 and choose a black, opaque background color for the border.
Raid debuffs are not showing up.
Go to Statuses, Raid Debuffs and enable at least one module. If you are inside an instance, leave and come back or reload the UI.
