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

Why sad? It worked (one way or another) all the way up to the point. How well?... Well, that's a different discussion

EDIT: Oh, and thanks for quick update!

Based on what I've read, it looks like a Blizz bug and I haven't found any code yet that keeps Gymnast from exposing the bug. Any help finding working code would be most appreciated.

You realize I don't care? If you want constructive discussion, stop pointing fingers in random directions and get straight to business.

Here's the fix, if you're not too proud to take advice:

I' not "proud", i simply don't care.
As I said earlier, if you can provide a fix, I'll be very-very appreciative.
I barely know Lua, and don't know anything of the secure template handling. All I was able to do is to make a fast patch for this addon to function in 4.0. Knowing that there's considerable amount of taints in Blizzard own code, the one single case you and a number of other people reported was easy considered as one of them, especially given that me, personally, only enxountered it once on all of my characters (there I've been glyphing all six of them, and re-glyphing two after some tests and sequential respecs to make it all work... on a bigger scale).
If you insist this knowledge is required, and you know how it works, patch is appreciated.

You realize I didn't write any of those addons? Why would I "brag" about downloading other people's working code? Are you certain you know what that word means? Some polite advice: stop. Whatever insult you're trying to make, it isn't translating into English well.

It's simple math. 187 other addons work. 187+Gymnast don't work. Fixing Gymnast makes all 188 addons work. If you think of that as "bragging", then you need to get a better thesaurus.

Here's the fix, if you're not too proud to take advice: use hooksecurefunc instead of replace the function pointers in Gymnast.OnLoad. Use securecall around the saved setowner calls. *Don't* call the saved functions directly in setowner/setdefaultanchor because secure hooks have already done that.

At the same time, you can delete the massive blocks of code checking for Cosmos and Khaos, because those stopped working a long time ago.

Turn on taint logging to "2", start up the game client, and fix any places that you skipped. Don't forget to turn off taint logging when you're done, else the file gets gigantic.

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.

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

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 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
