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

No worries, I really like your addon; nothing to be ashamed about at all. Here's my config:

Code:

- Activate somthing by setting it to true, disable by setting to false (case sensitive)
lolTipModules = {
	-- Activate: A talentline will be added to the tooltip
	["Talents"] = true,
	-- Activate: Disables fading, so the tooltip will be hidden instantly if not set on something
	["Disablefade"] = true,
	-- Activate: While struck in combat, you ActionbarAbilities not popup a tooltip anymore
	["Hideaction"] = false,
	-- Activate: Shows Buffs on the bottom of the Tooltip (Attention, little config inside the module - lolTip\modules\buffs.lua)
	["Buffs"] = false,
}

-- Table with custom classifications
-- Change the display to your likings
local classification = {
	["worldboss"] = "Boss",
	["rareelite"] = "+r",
	["rare"] = "r",
	["elite"] = "+",
}

-- Change the TooltipScale
local Scale = 1
-- Adds additional information about the guild
local grank = false

-- Activate: The Tooltip will follow your cursor
local MouseoverAnchor = true

-- These only apply if MouseOverAnchor is >>>true<<<
local MouseA = "BOTTOMLEFT"
local MouseB = "BOTTOMLEFT"
local MouseX = 5
local MouseY = 0

-- These only apply if MouseOverAnchor is >>>false<<<
local Apoint = "BOTTOMRIGHT"
local Bpoint = "BOTTOMRIGHT"
local xOffSet = -13
local yOffSet = 63

-- HeathBarvalues:
-- You can also activate both: hppercent & hpdiff it will mix up
-- like: hppercent & hpdiff = -17%

-- Activate: hp on HealthBar will be displayed as percent
local hppercent = false
-- Activate: hp on HealthBar will be displayed as diff (-3700)
local hpdiff = false

-- Activate: Shortens the number on the HealthBar like 17.5k
-- this will not affect the values if hppercent is activated
local useSI = false

-- Colors: 
-- for the hexdecimal colors: http://www.pagetutor.com/common/bgcolors1536.png, or google "html colors"
-- for the colors with digits: 
-- r = red, g = green, b = blue, valid are values from 0.1 to 1.

-- colors own Guildname
local GuildColor = "|cff22eeee"
-- Activate: The (PvP) will be colored to specified color, else in red/green (harmful/friendly)
local custompvp = false
local CustomPvPcolor = "|cff00eeff"
-- colors the backdrop of the tooltip
local bdrop = {r=0, g=0, b=0}
-- colors the border of the tooltip
local bor = {r=0.2, g=0.2, b=0.2}

Do you have mouseover-anchor activated? Or the DisableFade-module?

My guess it's a problem of one of these two, because both rely on heavy updating, and Jabar and me both had these two features enabled.

I did, but in the prior version of lolTip (before I updated for 3.2), I had these features enabled and didn't experience any of the problems.

Could it be, that lolTip isn't working in combination with Questhelper?
I get this errormessage:

I honestly didn't think about it !
Here's how I ran lolTip :

Code:

lolTipModules = {
	-- Activate: A talentline will be added to the tooltip
	["Talents"] = true,
	-- Activate: Disables fading, so the tooltip will be hidden instantly if not set on something
	["Disablefade"] = true,
	-- Activate: While struck in combat, you ActionbarAbilities not popup a tooltip anymore
	["Hideaction"] = false,
	-- Activate: Shows Buffs on the bottom of the Tooltip (Attention, little config inside the module - lolTip\modules\buffs.lua)
	["Buffs"] = false,
}

-- Activate: The Tooltip will follow your cursor
local MouseoverAnchor = true

Everything else was set to default.

It happened all along naxx25, in and out of combat.
PS: I deleted my double post x_x

xConStruct A Chromatic Dragonspawn Forum posts: 199 File comments: 374 Uploads: 18	Second that, but it occured one time in arathi basin and then, after a reloadui, didn't happen again. Did you have mouse anchor activated or something similar, because that's what my guess would be ... I'd say especially your config and when the problem occurs would be interesting to lolzen __________________ « Website \| GitHub » Oh hai! Last edited by xConStruct : 08-06-09 at 06:44 AM.

Jabar Premium Member Forum posts: 8 File comments: 40 Uploads: 1	Hi, I was testing your tooltip addon a few days ago while doing naxx25. (v2.1.2 & 3.2 wasn't released yet) I encountered huge framerate drop each time my cursor was on a friendly target. Went from 110fps to roughly 15. No problem whatsoever with enemy targets. I disabled every addons except yours... problem was still there. After switching from yours to RantTooltip, problem was gone. I know, being a developer myself, that report won't help you much but I just think it's something you should know.
