I've been using this addon as well as several others of yours for most of the year, thank you.

One issue since Tuesday's maintenance, is that it seems the chat spam is back.

I'm having issues with my Aliases not saving. I can set a name for a current spec such as "Retribution" and it stays through logging and etc. but as soon as I switch from the spec the and then back to it my alias will default to blank and it'll show the ##/##/## instead of the alias. Am I doing something wrong?

In StatBlockCore's options, have ABSS set to "No Tooltip in Combat". Then in combat, mouse over the StatBlock block displaying ABSS. Error is thrown up:

["message"] = "...\\Ara_Broker_SpecSwitcher\\Ara_Broker_SpecSwitcher.lua:74: Usage: GameTooltipTextLeft1:SetFont(\"font\", fontHeight [, flags]):\n...\\Ara_Broker_SpecSwitcher\\Ara_Broker_SpecSwitcher.lua:74: in function `OnLeave':\nStatBlockCore-2.61\\StatBlockCore.lua:621: in function <Interface\\AddOns\\StatBlockCore\\StatBlockCore.lua:617>\n\n ---",
["type"] = "error",
["session"] = 1247,
["counter"] = 10

Error repeats every time you mouse over the block in combat.

Running a bunch of other LDB mods with StatBlockCore; none of them that I have set to "No Tooltip in Combat" have this problem. Only ABSS.
Thank you for the detailed error report. It's fixed in r6.

Funkydude may have forgotten something in the changelog because there's no error with 2.60 and 2.61 only update the ToC file.

EDIT: r3 introduces aliases. Control+click to set one. Leave blank to remove an alias. Note that aliases are stored in two different groups, so you can have an alias for primary "00/60/11" --> "Bear" and an alias for secondary "00/60/11" --> "Cat".

That's odd. Is it happening every time you log ? Zoning too ?

Tell your display to not show the text for this plugin
