TipTacTalents - Show Player Talents in Tooltips
Using this addon, you will see the talent spec of players added to the tooltip.

A cache up to 25 is stored for the last scanned players, so you quickly can see their talents again without having to wait for talents to load.

To avoid inspect issues, TipTacTalents will not request talents if you have an inspect frame open.
That includes the default inspect frame, and the addon Examiner.

There is no command line switch or configurable options for TipTacTalents when used alone.
Using TipTac and TipTacOptions however, you can modify the display format, cache size and the option to turn it on or off.

This addon is also included as part of the TipTac package, but is released here on it's own, for those who do not need special tip customisations.
You can find the main TipTac addon package here:

  Change Log - TipTacTalents
TipTacTalents Changes | 2009 Apr 17
- Changed the TOC version to 30100 for the 3.1 patch.
- Will now show the proper spec, for people using their secondary spec.
- The tooltip line added will now be localised.
- Optimised the code a bit.

TipTacTalents Changes | 2009 Mar 28
- The tooltip line added will now be localised.
- Optimised the code a bit.

TipTacTalents Changes | 2009 Mar 13
- Occasionally the TipTac fadeout could get halted because of an update from TipTacTalents, I've fixed this by not allowing TipTacTalents to call "GTT:Show()" to resize the tip during fadeout.

TipTacTalents Changes | 2009 Mar 12
- After some more testing with adjusting the trottle time, it seems that compeltely removing it, that is setting it to zero, actually seems like the best solution, at least this is where I found the least mixed talents. Please let me know if you're still seeing wrong specs in the tips.
- Made some minor code changes.

TipTacTalents Changes | 2008 Nov 05
- Increased the throttle time for talent queries from 0.25 to 0.75 sec, hopefully that fixes some more of the problems with wrong talents listed on tips. But they will still occur with rapid mouse moving.

TipTacTalents Changes | 2008 Oct 22
- TipTacTalents will no longer request talents when the default inspect window is open, just like it already does when the Examiner addon is open.

TipTacTalents Changes | 2008 Oct 16
- Changed the TOC version to 30000 for the Wrath of the Lich King patch.
- When Examiner is installed, and opened, TipTacTalents will not request talent info, as this would cause problems in Examiner's talent tab.
- If the player has no talents, it will no longer state the name of the first talent tab and (0/0/0), but instead: "No Talents".
- Changed the default cache size up to 25.

TipTacTalents Changes | 2008 Jun 11
- Changed the default cache size up to 15.
- Player inspection has been throttled, hopefully that fixes some problem with talents showing up on the wrong player.

TipTacTalents Changes | 2008 Apr 06
- Added some different formatting styles for the Talent line in the tip, you have to edit the Lua file to change it though, by uncommenting some lines. Look at line 17 and after.
- Removed the obsolete 2.3.3 inspect checking.
- Fixed a nil error that could happen under special circumstances.
- TipTacTalents should no longer block you from getting the talents of same faction players who are marked for PvP.
- Cached players who are now out of range should now show with the cached data.

TipTacTalents Changes | 2008 Mar 24
- Initial Release.

I've also been having issues with it loading improper talent builds, pretty much is never accurate anymore.

I cry.

I've tried to reproduce this many times, but I've been unable to, so there isn't much I can do to fix this.
As for the inspect talent frame changing when you mouse over another player, there isn't much to do about this if you want tips to show talent spec of the person as they use the same function.

Blank Tooltip Error

Also when I inspect a talent tree, it changes based on who's my mouse-over target. I don't know if that's intentional or not, but I'd like it to not behave like that.
I'm getting this error as well. It will happen eventually, and then consistently happen. The tooltip will happen when I mouseover someone, then use /inspect. The tooltip will say something like "Offhand" and nothing else. It will happen to both alliance and horde targets, and targets that are nearby.

I've heard of people who had the option menu not show correctly if they had MetaHUD installed, but I was never able to reproduce it, and I really couldn't see how that addon could interfere with TipTacOptions.

Working fine now
And I just installed tiptac. Wow very nice! Thx
I had a small bug with tip tac. But I can't reproduce it.
I changed options on one toon. Then logged on my main. Bought up optons and it was blank. The menu on the left was there and so was the three bottom buttons. Only happened once so far. No biggie
Edit:
I have seen this bug again on the options menu in TipTac. This time it wasn't completely blank. If I chose general, only a few of the options on the right were shown. Same with Seecial, Colors, and all the rest. Reloading the GUI fixes it.

It's not like I earn money on making this, so you don't really threaten me with that attitude. Instead you should try and find out exactly what conditions it takes for this error to happen, be more specific, because I am unable to reproduce the problem.

Anyways, in case you are even interested, the error should be fixed for the next release.

Its not just the auction house. Seems to happen with a lot of NPC"S.
Well, if you can't debug your own mod, I will delete this mod. Way too many errors.

I cannot fix a problem I cannot reproduce, TipTacTalents should only do stuff when the GameTooltip shows a unit, so there should really be no way for this error to happen when you are browsing the Auction House. Disable all addons except this and see if it still happens.

Weird, did this happen just once, or do you get the error again and again?

The inspect rules was changed in 2.4, you can now inspect everyone, gear, honor and talents, EXCEPT players from the opposite faction which is PvP enabled. With the final release of 2.4, the one which is Live now, it seems there is a bug which makes it impossible to inspect your own honor and talent info, this used to work on the latest PTR patch I tried.

Yes, but in 2.4 it is getting restricted, and you will not be able to see the talents if they are flagged for PvP. It will still work for your own faction though, and the opposite faction if they are not flagged.

So its currently normal, and intended tha i cant inspect Talents on Allianz (i am horde) in the Battlegrounds? I thought it is a Bug. Because remembrance etc. also cant inspect it anymore.

So whats the change at all? And whats the point, so in Arena i can inspect Talents from Horde but not Allianz? Sounds very unlogical for me.

Btw. i cant inspect myself with this Addon here, its alwas Loading, and sometimes it shows me a TalentTree of another Class, im using the German Client.
