LiteTip

Version: 0.3
by: foo-bar [More]

What Is This?

LiteTip is a very light weight tooltip addon. Currently, features include:

  • Class colored tooltips (for players and unit frames)
  • Target of tooltip target is displayed for players and mobs
  • Tooltip anchored at the mouse

Still to come:
  • Apply colors to NPC tooltips
  • Add health bar to player frames
  • Any suggestions?

The screenshot shows how the tooltip looks when mousing over a player with no target. The default tooltip is shown for NPCs (with the exception of an added target line) / Items / Etc...

Version 0.3
+ Added tooltip targets (code from thatguyzp)
+ Added target line to mob tooltips
+ Tooltips now display correctly for unit frames
* Really fixed issue with displaying player tooltips when hovering over buffs

Version 0.2
+ Added Changelog
+ Added description to TOC
* Fixed issue with displaying player tooltip when hovering over buffs
* Changed gray con color to be a bit more readable

Um..

I was going to inform you about your fix of "* Fixed issue with displaying player tooltip when hovering over buffs" but you put it in the change log, however the "LiteTip-0.2.zip" file has "##Version: 0.1a" in its .toc file, and the buff tooltip issue is still present; I think you uploaded the old file accidentally.

Just an update as to what's coming soon:

I've merged thatguyzp's target code into my code, and I've hopefully fixed the issue with player tooltips showing up on buffs. I think I'm gonna just test the changes a bit more, and maybe see if I can get the tooltips to work when hovering over unit frames as well. You should see another release in the near future.

Suggestion: Besides being able to place the tooltip at your cursor I would suggest having other options available. (E.G. Anchor Top Left, Top Center, Top Right, etc..)

I had not planned for having any sort of configuration options in the mod, but what I might do is add comments to the code so that it will be easy to change if you have the desire to do so.

add this:

GameTooltipStatusBar:Show()

...near line 59 to show player statusbars on the tooltip

heres a point of reference:
Code:
    if UnitExists(unit.."target") then
      GameTooltip:AddLine("Target: "..GetTargetLine(unit.."target"))
    end

    GameTooltipStatusBar:Show()

  else
    -- Mob Tooltip

Thanks for the tip. I had player healthbars working with a more complicated method, but this is much easier and much more efficient, it would seem. You'll see an updated version soon with this change among a few others.

Unitframe info could use an update that tells you the location of your party members.

Replacement for Tiptac?

Tiptac, http://www.wowinterface.com/download...93-TipTac.html a very common fav among tooltip mods just went into the grave, the author isn't playing anymore, 3.0.2 breaks it, and no one seem to have taken on his mantle, would be really cool if you either by default or in an option somewhere made LiteTip use a similar layout & style.

Re: Replacement for Tiptac?

Are you going to update this soon?

Code:
GameTooltipStatusBar:Show()
Doesn't work as i thought it would, it does show health under the tooltip but it shows for every thing ( my items in my inventory, etc)

Just a heads up,

I'm going to be getting back to work on LiteTip with an overhaul of the addon in the near future. I've noticed a lack of decent tooltip addons recently, and I plan to fill that gap with LiteTip. Hopefully I can include some of the best features from other tooltip addons, so please leave a comment with anything you'd like to see.

Sorry for the long delay in updates. I just got busy with school and did not have time for WoW or LiteTip. Now that I'm on break, I can manage my time better and hopefully get something good out the door here.

- Better Health display under frames (Says any item has health o.0)
- Tell where your party member is, when you hover your mouse over the party frame.
- Maybe make your own target option (The other one is a little buggy, doesnt show when people target the battlemaster portals in dalaran and sometimes it says ppl are targeting me, which they arent.)

Well think of some more! Thanks for putting your time into this addon :P
