How ColorBlind enchances the UI

Color Blind 4.0

Color Blind 4.0 is a near complete rewrite of the previous Color Blind version posted here. It has been updated for 2.3 and all features are working. Some of the features are implemented a bit differently than in the screen shot, will update the screenshot when time allows.

Auction House Tooltips and Item Comparison Tooltips and not working 100% though. Again, I will figure those out when I get more time =)

Re: Bug Report

EDIT: I've uploaded my ColorBlind4.lua file (inside of the ColorBlind4_Manual1.zip) file to the Optional Files section (http://www.wowinterface.com/download...=6395#optional). This is the link to the actual file: http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/info11852.html

If you don't want to try to manually edit your copy of the lua file to do the fixes I've described below (and in previous posts), just download this zip file and replace the existing ColorBlind4.lua file with the same filename inside of the zip file.

Please note that the line numbers are based on the code that I made the three line change on, that I talked about just before this post. If you are looking at the downloaded source code w/o my change, the line number may be off by three lines!

I was able to correct this problem. It seems that the "old" way of registering functions to the chat window no longer is valid, and that this method (http://www.wowwiki.com/API_ChatFrame...ageEventFilter) should be done now.

So, taking this code...

Code:

local function setGameTooltipScript(set)

	if (set) then
		GameTooltip:SetScript("OnTooltipSetItem", function(self) onTooltipSetItemScript() setTooltipItemColor(self) end)
		for i=1,7 do
			getglobal("ChatFrame"..i):SetScript("OnHyperlinkClick", function(self) onChatHyperlinkClick() setTooltipItemColor(ItemRefTooltip) end)
		end
	else
		GameTooltip:SetScript("OnTooltipSetItem", function(self) onTooltipSetItemScript() end)
		for i=1,7 do
			getglobal("ChatFrame"..i):SetScript("OnHyperlinkClick", function(self) onChatHyperlinkClick() end)
		end
	end
end

and changing it to this...

Code:

local function setGameTooltipScript(set)

	if (set) then
		GameTooltip:SetScript("OnTooltipSetItem", function(self) onTooltipSetItemScript() setTooltipItemColor(self) end)
		for i=1,7 do
			ChatFrame_AddMessageEventFilter("OnHyperlinkClick", function(self) onChatHyperlinkClick() setTooltipItemColor(ItemRefTooltip) end)
		end
	else
		GameTooltip:SetScript("OnTooltipSetItem", function(self) onTooltipSetItemScript() end)
		for i=1,7 do
			ChatFrame_AddMessageEventFilter("OnHyperlinkClick", function(self) onChatHyperlinkClick() end)
		end
	end
end

fixed this problem for me.

I sent him a web site message, but he hasn't replied. Was tempted to send him a Internet email (http://www.wowinterface.com/forums/s...member&u=10780) but thought I'd wait a bit more before doing that. Its all volunteer work, but damn, I really miss this add-on.

Runs into an error with Color Blind with bagnon and X-Perl.

You're welcome to change anything you like on it and/or decide to implement the changes in a future version. I just wanted to share in case others were in the same boat as I was about wanting the rarity info on more tooltip types.

EDIT: Since making this original post I uploaded a new version (RarityTooltip7) that should work for all items regardless of which window it is being displayed in. Figured it was easier to grab the existing tooltip text color and figuring out the quality name/text, than it was trying to write branching code for each and every type of window (ex.: Auction, Bank, etc.), and making specific api calls for the type of window, getting the quality number, then looking up the text description of the quality.

So far it seems to work great, with one minor annoyance. For recipes, the function in ColorBlind4 would get called twice for some reason, so I had to add a check to see if the quality text info was already appended to the right of the name of the item (by searching for "(" or ")") and if it does, don't bother adding it again.

But so far it looks like a clean/good implementation.

Yeah, as stated in the notes above, auctionhouse tooltips are not working, mainly because I have not figured out how to hook them yet.

Ah sorry didn't see that. And I'm usually careful about reading the notes before posting too. :/

I did some testing, and the AH link DOES work IF you have had previously had the item in your own bags. For example, if I had something in my bags (or bank) and I put to for sale up on the AH, the tooltip will work for that. Also other people who put the same item up for sale it will work for too.

I took a look at the api you are using and it basically says that the item has to be cached locally for the api to return valid information (vs. a nil).

There's an api call you can make to get auction house information, but it has an index value for which item in the AH window you want the information on, which I can't seem to figure out how to get via which item the cursor is hovering over.

The auction house tooltip shows the rarity information too, so its weird that it can't be parsed out. Almost like the AH has its own special version of the tooltip vs. everything else.

Oh! Vendors have the same situation as the AH. Items that I have had in my bags before show the rarity information on a vendor (in other words, cached locally). Otherwise it doesn't (nil returned).

Finally, when you ctrl-click on an item in the chat window, the popup window that shows the information on the item does not display the rarity information. Is that supposed to be working, or is that another item documented that does not work?

As for semi colons, it is optional in lua. I stopped using them some time ago, not sure why

I never realized that. Kind of freaky actually.

No problem, glad it was of some use to you.
