tekKompare   Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
tekKompare is my own personal replacement for EquipCompare and similar addons. It's super-small, designed to do two things:
  • Give you always-on compare tooltips
  • Show tooltips for links in chat when hovering over them
If you want to disable the hovertips, just delete the HoverTips.lua file.

Not showing comparisons for other gear sets

Since 3.3 I'm only getting comparison tooltips for the items I'm wearing. Before 3.3 I would get a comparison tooltip for all the sets I had saved in the Equipment manager. Now I have to hold shift to get the comparison tooltips for my other gear sets. Am I missing an option somewhere or did something change?

I'm assuming from the screenshot that you are using AuctionLite to display vendor prices. If I'm wrong, disregard this reply.

I was having the same problem, and I think AuctionLite is to blame - when using an addon that generates a comparison tooltip, such as TekKompare or Pawn, AuctionLite displays the vendor price of the item on the extra tooltip, instead of the actual highlighted item. This happens with Pawn + AuctionLite alone, without TekKompare, as well as with TekKompare + AuctionLite (without Pawn). I left a message for the author of AuctionLite, but I'm still not 100% sure what's causing the error.

Edit to add - with TekKompare enabled, you'll see the vendor price for the item you have equipped in the same slot as the highlighted item, even if TekKompare's extra tooltip is not being actively displayed. You can verify this yourself by checking the correct vendor price of one of your equipped items, then hovering over an item in your bag from the same slot. The tooltip should show the vendor price of the equipped item instead.

Second edit - the author of AuctionLite confirmed that his addon was causing this. Rather than using the GetItemInfo API, he was pulling the vendor price from the Blizzard tooltip and then suppressing it. The next version will use GetItemInfo, which should fix this problem.

I have narrowed it down to Arkinventory - I loaded Cumbuctor and Bankstack and the issue went away.

It looks like another addon you guys are using is conflicting with tekKompare. From the SS provided, I can see I am not using the bag addon that is shown and I do not have this problem, even before the latest update. Try disabling the bag addon and see if the problem goes away.
I've tried several bag addons and they all seemed to have a problem or conflicted with another addon. I now just use one that shows me how many empty slots for each bag on the default WoW bags.
Also turn off other tool tip addons to see if one of them is conflicting.

If I disable this addon everything is fine.

The version of tekKompare I am using is Version: 3.0.3.5. I tried a version tekkompare.lua you did 10 hrs ago from github but that didn't fix it.

It only happens on some of the items, not all of them.

Same issue.

Using the released beta on here.

I'm experiencing the same problem. But I'm not shure if this happend along with a new AtlasLoot version or if this was already a problem since WotLK...

Another one of your addons that is far better & less crufty than the others which do the same thing.

Incompatable addons - If any

tekKompare has not been working for me since I purchased WotLK. Was wondering if there is a list if addons that have conflicts with tekKompare so I can turn them off. I used this addon all time before the expansion and I relied on a lot. I like the hover tooltips. Also if there is anything I need to do to make it work. Any help would be great. Thank you.

I deleted HoverTips.lua to disable hover tips - looks like that prevented comparison tooltips from displaying completely...
