I am not currently working on TinyTip and cannot guarantee it will ever get updated for Cataclysm. I recommend Leatrix Tooltip for low resource usage and TipTac or TipTop for a more featureful option, but with more resource usage. Thank you for your patronage.
Comments Parsed 6-13-09
- Description Updated -
- Note: I do not maintain TinyTipOptions -
What is TinyTip? Well, it started out as just a simple upgrade over AF_Tooltip_Mini and exploded from there. Now it shares no code with what it used to be, becoming something more, while still staying true to its name. The core of TinyTip is basically just an upgrade over AF_Tooltip_Mini, a small file around 24KB. The more modules you allow to load, the more this value increases. The goal of TinyTip is to allow you to mix and match your modules while keeping the smallest memory footprint possible. All TinyTip addons are optional.
Anyway, as you can guess, TinyTip changes the look of your GameTooltip. Here are the features found in core:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TinyTip
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Required only for interoperability between TinyTip addons.
- Required by TinyTipOptions and nothing else so far.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TinyTipBasic (core formating)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Name, backdrop, and border (optional) colouring by reaction (Hostile, Friendly, etc.)
- Class coloured with raid colours.
- Level coloured by difficulty.
- Creature Type (Imp, Cat) given for Pets.
- UnitClassification (Humanoid, Undead, etc.) given for NPCs.
- Elite Status (Elite, Rare, WorldBoss, Rare Elite) added when applicable.
- (Tapped) for Tapped, (Corpse) for Corpse
- Optional Guild Names displayed. (on by default)
- Optional backdrop coloring for friends and guildies. (on by default)
- Optional Honor Rank Name or Number. (on by default)
- Optional "Hostile", "Friendly", etc. reaction text for the colour-blind. (off by default)
- Optional Compact Tooltip mode.
- English, German, French, and Chinese localization, and partial support for other clients.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TinyTipPositioning
-----------------------------------------------------------------
- Positioning Options (Anchoring, Offsets)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TinyTipTargets
-----------------------------------------------------------------
- Who's targetting your tooltip mob?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
In LoadOnDemand Addon TinyTipOptions
GUI Options, use /tinytip or /ttip to bring up the menu.
Only loaded if you use that slash command.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Troubleshooting
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: TinyTip is preventing another tooltip addon from working.
A: Go into that other addon's TOC file and add/change this line to include TinyTip.
## OptionalDeps:
Q: Help! I'm getting incredibly long / infinite load times with TinyTipExtras / TinyTipOptions!
A: There is a bug with Ace2 addons (specifically, AceLibrary) which was fixed in the latest revision. If possible, update your addons.
Q: I'm getting an error from TinyTip, or an option isn't working right.
A: 1) Disable all other addons and see if the problem still occurs.
2) Check my WoWI portal to see if it's a known issue, and for updates.
3) Maybe your files are corrupt. Delete TinyTip, TinyTipExtras, and TinyTipOptions, then re-download them and install from stratch.
4) Your Saved Variable database may have gotten corrupt somehow. Try using /tinytip default and then /tinytip confirm to reset it.
5) If resetting your options doesn't work, exit WoW, delete all your Saved Variable files for TinyTip (global and per character), then restart WoW.
6) Leave a bug report on my WoWI portal.
Q: Where's the secret cow option?
A: There is no secret cow option.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Changes in v30100
- Updated TOC as the basic TinyTip modules have been confirmed working.
- Fixed a small bug in guild lines.

Changes in v1.4.12

not sure if this is abandoned or not but you can find TipTac (almost the exact same thing) here:

Only problem I have is that I see the guild the target is part of in two separate lines.

Yep. WAU is a release and beta distribution system, so be aware. Please send all issues to http://code.google.com/p/thrae-wow/ if you're using the beta. I'm hard working on the options menu, but it's still not ready yet. A lot of localizations and database interactions that need to be rewritten.

People seem to be having troubles with TinyTip as of late ...
read my post HERE for some help. I posted links to the last known working version of TinyTip. In a nutshell though Thrae is rewriting TinyTip. The version being downloaded from WoWAce (and through the ace updater software) is a BETA version of the new TinyTip. Even though it is functional there are no options (there is a file you can manually edit but I had no luck with it) with a GUI as of yet.

TinyTip v2.0 coming along nicely.
I'd like to say that 2.0 is coming along nicely and I hope to have a release candidate soon.
Since WoW 2.4 is quickly approaching, I've decided to eschew my current configuration design and just change the old/current TinyTipOptions to work with my new design. However, before I could do that, I needed to stabilize my new design. WoW 2.4 stands to offer addon configuration interfaces, among other things. The old code from TinyTip 1.x had to go, especially now that we have CowTip, TipTac, and other great tooltip addons that have a huge amount of features. TinyTip has always been about simplicity and optimal performance. One of the main draws of 2.0, one of which I am proud of, is the ability to only load the code for the functionality you want. This should allow most portions of TinyTip to preserve itself throughout all the updates to WoW itself, even if other modules/features break and I'm not around to fix them (not to say I'm going anywhere soon), and also offer people the greatest level of control over their resource usage.
