What it does
Skada has several views and splits fights into segments, and you can set up every window on its own. There are three window types: bar (the classic meter), inline (a horizontal strip for custom interfaces) and data text (for LDB displays and minimal setups).
Left-click goes into the detail, right-click goes back, and the mouse wheel scrolls the list. Hovering over a bar shows extra info and shortcuts; Shift-click shows targets, for example.
The built-in Theme Engine exports and imports themes as a string. A default window appears on first load; open the settings from the cog on the window's title bar or from the minimap button and pick Configure.
