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

Just use TipTac then.

Getting this error a lot, mainly noticed during pvp:

[22:35:21] Interface\AddOns\lolTip\core.lua:248: attempt to concatenate a nil value
[C]: ?
Interface\AddOns\lolTip\core.lua:248: in function <Interface\AddOns\lolTip\core.lua:242>
[C]: ?
[C]: ?

Allright, quickfix for line 101, as it seems you can't gather the unit reaction color if the unit isn't in range, change line 99 to this

Code:

elseif not isPlayerOrPet and UnitInRange(unit) then

About line 341, that would be the same problem so change line 340 to this

Code:

if (_G['GameTooltipTextLeft'..i]:GetText():find('^'..LEVEL)) and UnitInRange(unit) then

The Problem, if i enable this: The Colormodification and also the difficultcolors of the Tooltip aren't working anymore. I see if i get the chance to have RaidPets and try to solve it.

About DockingStation, i got no Errors when i tried today, but saw that Dockingstation itself had problems. Can someone confirm that this bug was DockingStation's fault, or is it just me getting no Errors at all with my upcoming and the 1.5 version?

@pinokkio44: Sorry to say this, but i'll not add these functions, because i don't want to get this Addon bloated. But blackpandemic is right, TipTac is an Addon heavily configurable, and it's not an Memory or CPU hog, from what i know :P

@blackpandemic: Noted. I'll see what i can do about it.

There are no errors, but mousing over objects on the panel doesn't show any tooltip. Try addons some LDB objects to a panel and mouse over them.

I tested it with CargoHonor, cargExplorer and cargoWorldDefense. Worked fine.

Could you try with Statblock_Folks from wowace aswell? and oRA2/bigwigs etc.

Skylinee A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 5 File comments: 371 Uploads: 0	After more testing, i found out why i get no tooltips on Dockingstation. With ''MouseoverAnchor'' set to true, no tooltips appear. However, with the default setting (false), they appear fine. Last edited by Skylinee : 04-08-09 at 09:25 AM.

But i hope there are enough good changes for now.
