Gymnast Tooltips

Version: 4.0.80000

by: AnduinLothar, Kharthus

Bending over backwards to please. Make your Tooltip as flexible as you are.

Slash Commands:

"/gtshow" - Makes the Game Tooltip visible for you to drag to your preferred position.
"/gtreset" - Moves the Game Tooltip back to its original position.
"/gttopcenter" - Moves the Game Tooltip to the alternate top center position.

Usage:

Type /gtshow into chat.
Drag the tooltip to where you want it to be anchored.
Put your mouse over the tooltip to show the anchor checkboxes.
Check one of the anchor checkboxes to select which side/corner to anchor in place. ("TOPLEFT", "TOPRIGHT", "BOTTOMLEFT", "BOTTOMRIGHT", "LEFT", "TOP", "RIGHT", "BOTTOM")
Check the UBER checkbox to position "Enhanced Tooltips" near their parent frame.
Check the OWNER checkbox to position normal tooltips near their parent frame.
Click "Here" to set GameTooltip to show where the tooltip currently is. Or click "Mouse" to show the GameTooltip where ever the mouse is.

v4.0
-Enhanced GUI
-Checkboxes for anchor selection
-Checkboxes for Uber and Owner togglable options
-Buttons to select Here or Mouse anchoring

I think,
self:RegisterEvent("VARIABLES_LOADED");
is a mistake. The event is not necessarily fired when game is loaded, as far as I can remember.

function Gymnast.SmartSetOwner(owner, tooltip, setX, setY)
if (not owner) then
owner = this;
end

What is this "this" you're assigning "owner" to?
I'm not entirely sure that my solution

function Gymnast.SmartSetOwner(self, owner, tooltip, setX, setY)
if (not owner) then
owner = self;

was actually right, but your's surely wrong.

Also think I'm going to comment out those two other sections of code. I've never seen them actually get used nor should they. If you don't have 'owner', then you also don't have 'self'.

Yet another fine example of "read before post" case.
thei is Blizzard's own fault, nothing addon authors can do, besides a complete duplication of Blizzard UI code in every addon.
Go back and complain to blizzard bug tracker. What? Blizzard don't have a bug tracker? Then you're out of luck.

Debug: [C]: PlaceGlyphInSocket() ..\FrameXML\StaticPopup.lua:76: OnAccept() ..\FrameXML\StaticPopup.lua:3489: StaticPopup_OnClick() [string ":OnClick"]:1: [string ":OnClick"]:1 AddOns: I see someone below already mentioned this but I though you might like to see the error. Edit: Oh, and I forgot to mention. Not only did I get the error but it would not let me change a glyph until I disabled Gymnast so it you can't fix this because of something Bliz is doing I guess I will have to leave it disabled. Can't have it causing internal errors and disabling parts of the game. Thanks Last edited by Twidget : 11-11-10 at 06:20 AM.

I saw that originally. Just thought you would like to see the actual error message. No matter. Found another tip mover that does the job with no error. Thanks...

I've been able to just attempt the glyph change again after the initial error without issue.

Exaggerate much?

I have 188 addons in my addons folder, I've never had this error except with Gymnast. Disabling Gymnast lets glyphs work fine, but it errors every time until the disable.

Duplicating Blizzard's code doesn't magically avoid taint errors on execution.
