lolTip

Version: 2.2

by: Lolzen [More]

Explanation
Once i experienced Lua for the first time, i've ever since dreamed about making my very own tooltip.
Someday i really did it, and i've learned much trough this addon. It has grown very much since the release back then.

What can lolTip do?
lolTip features following Stuff:

Unitnames colors in class/reactioncolor
Level displayed in difficultycolor
Own Guild Coloring
Show GuildRank, GuildRankName next to the Guild
Target on the topright if exists
RaidIcon
Anchor changeable to follow the mouse
Hides Playertitles in Tooltip
Nicer Style if PvP is activated on mouseoverunit
ItemQualitycolored tooltipborders
Healthbar inside the Tooltip
Modifiable HealthBar-values in different Styles
-percentage (37%)
-numeral (3489/5000)
-shortened (42.3k)
-diff (-29399)
-They also can be mixed up like diff and shortened (-37.4k)
de/activateable modules
-Talents
-disable fading, and hide tooltip instant instead
-Dont popup Actionbartooltips inFight
-Buffdisplay under the Tooltip
Easy changeable colors
Support for ManyItemTooltips (Skinning)
Support for Class Colors (Custom Class Colors)

Modules Q&A
Q:So what are this modules, and why are they there anyway?
A:The modules are tiny additions to the Tooltip not everyone might wants to have activated. So they are deactivatable.
Q:I want module xy.
A:You can a) Request it, or b) make it you own and send it to me per PM, and i'll add it in the next Release. Personally i prefer b, because i want to focus on the main Addon, not the modules, but also want to give the users the chance to habe a customable, yet not bloated Addon.

Other
To modify the border and StatusBartexture, you'll have to replace the blp's. (Also tga's possible)

Configuration
The configuration will be done through lua only.
You may open tip.lua and at the very top you'll find the configuration
Also there is a little config in lolTip\modules\buffs.lua
There you can modify the maxumum auras displayed, the size of them, the x & y offsets and add filters (no worry, a small text from WoWWiki should describe it fairly easy)

Thanks to
Aezay, Cargor & Seerah
You! for Reporting bugs, and suggestions

Hope you enjoy lolTip as much as i do,
Lolzen

Lolzen A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 8 File comments: 122 Uploads: 9	successor For those still interested in this, i'm sorry to tell you i have started to write a successor a long time ago, which never got uploaded here, because of a nasty bug. That bug occours after some while inGame and is caused by something from the targetline, i still don't know what it is, but if i ever fix it, it'll get uploaded for everyone interested - if i'll finish this, very casual player right now, because the lack of time. So, here's the link, klick on the zip button to download: https://github.com/Lolzen/ProTip I encourage you to fork, modify and do pull requests for feature requests for example, as my time is very limited. Sorry to kept you all waiting..

Well, for those who still use this.

1. Turn off the talent module before anyone works out how the cache should work. From my experience, this is the only thing that causes the fps lag.
2. Search for 'GetDifficultyColor' in tip.lua, substitute it with 'GetQuestDifficultyColor'. This should get rid of most LUA errors.
3. If you are having problem with GS on PVP players (the GS and the HP bar is on the same line and covers each other), comment this part:

if not lolTipModules["Talents"] and UnitIsPlayer(unit) and UnitIsPVP(unit) then
for i=2, numLines do
if getLine(i):GetText():find(PVP_ENABLED) then
getLine(i):Hide()
GameTooltip:AppendText("")
end
end
end

Because GS (GSlite) uses 'addline' to display, and loltip hides the default PVP tag, making one line missing.

Any one still here? I so love this addon...

After looking at Tiptac's code I managed to solve the problem of displaying talents info instead of title, just change the first part of the talents module as:

Code:

local function GatherTalents(inspect)
	local group = GetActiveTalentGroup(inspect)
	for i = 1, 3 do
		local _, _, _, _, pointsSpent = GetTalentTabInfo(i,inspect,nil,group);
		points[i] = pointsSpent
		if (i == 1) or (points[i] > points[val]) then
			val = i
		end
	end
	local _, tabName = GetTalentTabInfo(val,inspect,nil,group);
	if (points[val] == 0) then
		val = "None"
	else
		val = tabName.." ("..points[1].."/"..points[2].."/"..points[3]..")"
	end
	
	for i = 2, GameTooltip:NumLines() do
		if (getLine(i):GetText() or ""):find("^"..TALENTS_PREFIX) then
				getLine(i):SetText(TALENTS_PREFIX..val)
				GameTooltip:AppendText("")
			break
		end
	end
end

but here's still the problem of serious FPS drop after several hour. maybe I'll read the code thoroughly some time later to deal with it...

Cala A Fallenroot Satyr Forum posts: 22 File comments: 49 Uploads: 1	Quick feature request: With the advent of multi-realm dungeons, would it be possible to get an option to display the realm name or at least a (*) next to or below their name? I've run into both good and bad players, but until they speak in party chat, I have no idea if they're from my realm or not. __________________ Insert Witty Message Here.

Lolzen A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 8 File comments: 122 Uploads: 9	Yes, the problem is simple. lolTip have problems with these questAddons that add a line to the tooltip. But i will recode the whole Addon again, also because of that annoying fpslag-bug. But however i'm not sure when i will start that, i hope sooner than later ;O

Sec A Cyclonian Forum posts: 48 File comments: 181 Uploads: 0	Hello Lolzen, thank you for adding so many comments to the lua file for explaining things. I've been able to change the font for the health bar, but cannot figure out how to change the font face for the rest of the tooltip. Is there a bit of code that I need to insert? I have searched for "font" within all of the lua files and the only times the search turned up a result, it pertained to the health bar. Last edited by Sec : 11-06-09 at 02:08 PM.

Lolzen A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 8 File comments: 122 Uploads: 9	Thank you all Today i have finally gotten back into mood to do a bit of coding. I played a bit with tekkonfig for the GUI coming with the next version. It seems pretty easy to manage, as far as i tested and i hope this will ease configurating up a bit. Among the GUI, there will be of course bugfixes and features, but as the ToDo list seems large enough, the next update will take a fair amount of time. If you want more information and keep updated with the progress check out my blog. I'll post changes, additions and possible problems, everytime something important happens =)

Monolit A Black Drake Forum posts: 81 File comments: 403 Uploads: 8	First of all let me say, you've done excellent work on that addon, thank you. There are some features I personally miss though: 1) the option to show player's titles would be great 2) ability to disable "PVP" tag display 3) further improvements to mouse anchor behavior: a)auto anchor to default(set) position when mouse-overing action bars and unit frames. b) propper tooltip adjustment when mouse-overing a broker plug-in (tooltip should be anchored directly under/on top of the plug-in). Though this could be done by simple enabling mouse anchor only for world objects, since with static anchor LDB tooltips act normally. So I'd like to request mainly the third feature since it's a pain to heal via minimalistic grid-like raid frames when your tooltip is covering half of the group members. EDIT: Also after using this addon for a while, I found really annoying thing (not really a bug, but a missing feature): if you have talent inspect feature on - it keeps scanning whenever you mouseover something (even yourself) This cause small fps lags, but if you make some caching system like one in TipTacTalents (basically it just stores specs of up to 25 mouseover'ed units which prevent those little (and really annoying) delays from happening.
