Changing Tooltip Anchor
I'm using a version of Wanderlust that I've modified (haphazard and inexperienced-ly modified).

I've moved the addon to the top left corner and the mouse over tooltips for dungeons/raid finder/pvp queue are aligned like the addon is still in the top right corner (ie moving off-screen to the left).

I really don't have a lot of lua know-how and basically am able to blindy stumble over code to change what I want.

I need to anchor the mouse over tooltips to act like the addon is in the top left corner and I don't know how to make that happen.

Code as follows (not sure how to make it "lua code" as opposed to the basic "code" bubble):

Code:
--[[Local horror]]
local Scale = 0.9
local r, g, b, a = 0, 0, 0, 1
local BGThickness = 1
local OffsetX, OffsetY = 16, -16
local Point, AnchorPoint = "TOPLEFT", "TOPLEFT"
local trackingsize = 14
local trackingfontflag = "THINOUTLINE"
local trackingowncolor = {0.41, 0.8, 0.94}

--[[ Loading ]]
Wanderlust = CreateFrame("Frame", "Wanderlust", UIParent)
Wanderlust:RegisterEvent("ADDON_LOADED")
Wanderlust:SetScript("OnEvent", function(self, event, addon)
    if(addon~="Wanderlust") then return end

    
    --[[ Carbonite hint ]]
    local total = 0
    local SetTextureTrick = function(self, elapsed)
        total = total + elapsed
        if(total > 2) then
            Minimap:SetMaskTexture("Interface\\Buttons\\WHITE8X8")
            Wanderlust:SetScript("OnUpdate", nil)
        end
    end
    Wanderlust:SetScript("OnUpdate", SetTextureTrick)
    
    --[[ Location and scale ]]
    Minimap:ClearAllPoints()
	Minimap:SetScale(Scale)
    Minimap:SetPoint(Point, UIParent, AnchorPoint, OffsetX / Scale, OffsetY / Scale)
    MinimapCluster:EnableMouse(false)

    --[[ Background ]]
    Minimap:SetBackdrop({bgFile = "Interface\\ChatFrame\\ChatFrameBackground", insets = {
        top = -BGThickness / Scale,
        left = -BGThickness / Scale,
        bottom = -BGThickness / Scale,
        right = -BGThickness / Scale
    }})
     Minimap:SetBackdropColor(r, g, b, a)

    --[[ Click func ]]
    
    local oldOnClick = Minimap:GetScript("OnMouseUp")
    Minimap:SetScript("OnMouseUp", function(self,click)
	    if(click=="RightButton") then
		    ToggleDropDownMenu(1, nil, MiniMapTrackingDropDown, "cursor", 0, 0)
	    elseif(click=="MiddleButton") then
		    if (not CalendarFrame) then LoadAddOn("Blizzard_Calendar") end Calendar_Toggle() 
	    else 
		    oldOnClick(self)
	    end
    end)

    Wanderlust.tracking = CreateFrame("Frame", nil, Minimap)

Again, if anyone knows how to accomplish this task, I'd be appreciative if you could treat me like an idiot that doesn't understand most of the basics of the language. I really just don't know as much as I sincerely wish I knew.

(I'm also assuming I've hack'n'slashed some of the code to hide the clock and mail frame. If there's a better way to hide those properly I'd be happy to make it happen)

Fast SS, just to clarify (I'm bad at explaining this stuff):

Topleft corner, that tooltip is all over the left edge of the screen =(

This should do it.

LFGSearchStatus:SetFrameStrata("HIGH")
LFGSearchStatus:SetFrameLevel(25)

To actually alter the anchor of that "tooltip", you'd have to replace the whole Update function of the LFG frame.

An easier solution would be using :SetClampedToScreen(true)
http://wowprogramming.com/docs/widge...lampedToScreen

As for what Game92 suggested, when it comes to overlapping, the easier solution for that would be using :SetToplevel(true)
