TipTac

5 - TipTac Support for Ackis Recipe List

I'm trying to get TipTac to intercept the ARL tooltips to change their appearance but can't seem to get that working. I've tried adding arlTooltip and arlTooltip2 to the list of TipTacs one's it'll look for, but that didn't work. TipTac works great with the following tooltip windows...

    "GameTooltip",
    "ShoppingTooltip1",
    "ShoppingTooltip2",
    "ShoppingTooltip3",
    "ItemRefTooltip",
    "WorldMapTooltip",
    "AtlasLootTooltip",
    "QuestHelperTooltip",
    "QuestGuru_QuestWatchTooltip",
    "LootLinkTooltip",
    "ComparisonTooltip1",
    "ComparisonTooltip2",

If you need to find TipTac it's at http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/fileinfo.php?id=7593#info

I hope your able to help as that'd be so great.

Thanks!

    Just a FYI I switched my tooltip stuff around to use LibQTip.  I'll be looking at the TipTac support stuff soonish.

    The irc server is: irc.freenode.net I'm in the #wowace #curseforge #wowuidev channels plus a few others.

    NarusegawaNaru: I'll add that in.

    With this new function I addded, which is pretty much the best way I can make this happen, I guess I can just close this ticket now?

    Ackis if you're still checking in here, how come you aren't just using the GameTooltip to show the tips in? Also, what is the IRC server you're talking about?

    Ackis: I've added the following to addon:ResetGUI

    TipTac:AddModifiedTip(arlTooltip) TipTac:AddModifiedTip(arlTooltip2)

    and also the CreateFrame function just after reset the scale.

    Basically I looked for where you set the scale and just added those 2 lines after it. It works.

    It doesn't check that the function exists yet though, not sure how to do that.

    Saw this post made by you:

    Zergreth
    Is it something like this you are looking for? just paste it into the end of TipTac\core.lua and you can call TipTac.AddModifiedTip(tooltipframe) from anywhere.

    function TipTac.AddModifiedTip(tooltip)
    	if (tooltip:GetName()) then
    		tinsert(TT_TipsToModify,tooltip:GetName());
    		tooltip:HookScript("OnHide",TipHook_OnHide);
    		tooltip:HookScript("OnTooltipSetItem",TipHook_OnTooltipSetItem);
    		TipTac:ApplySettings();
    	end
    end

    This would probably solve the problems.

    Yup the tooltip content is generated dynamically as you hover over different links/etc.

    Aezay, jump on IRC if you can, talk to me about updating on curse, and what the issues are. It's just as easy I find as WoWI. :)

    Hi Ackis, if support could be added that would be awesome. I know tooltips made by EquipCompare and Auctioneer work okay. I think they use the LibExtraTip library or something?

    And thanks Aezay, I saw that comment. You might be right with "Might be because the 'Ackis Recipe List' tooltips aren't created when TipTac modifies the tips. It could be creating them dynamically when you open up the main window in that mod. This is just guesswork though." But I'll have to wait and see if Ackis can confirm that.

    I replied to you on WoWInterface, did you see that?

    Oh, and about adding Missing Friends to Curse, I'd rather not, quite annoyed with updating my mods on Curse, WoWInterface is just so much easier and problem free.

    Aezay, I figured the best thing to do would be to move this to your project here.

    PS: Add Missing Friends to curse :P hehe

    ARL Tooltips are called:

    "arlTooltip"
    "arlTooltip2"

    I'll see if support for it could be added.  Not really sure if it's an ARL issue or not.
