RantTooltip

Version: 0.28

by: Stuck [More]

RantTooltip (GUI) Options here.

(NOTE: If you plan on using a layout other than the default layout, you need to delete the RantTooltip_Layout folder first.)

RantTooltip is a tooltip addon that was influenced by oUF to include a layout system for tooltips. You'll find it very similar to oUF. A sample layout is included, based on p3lim's oUF layout. It was designed to match p3lim's layout due to my personal use of it. I take no credit for the design.

The documentation included in the zip file should give you all the information you need on how you create your own tooltip layout.

For everyone who prefers the original RantTooltip look, I've uploaded a layout called RantTooltip Classic.

-[Rum] (Stuck)

0.28 - "<" and ">" will now be colored according to the tag variable the encompass.
- The last player's talent spec will now be cached. This will stop the "Loading" text from flashing in some cases.

0.27 - Colons next to tag variables are no longer colored to be consistent with the adjacent variable. This was conflicting with tag updates.
- Added two more new tags: $curshort and $maxshort. These variables will display health and power values but will reduce their size if necessary.
- For example: 125000 becomes 125k. 1500000 becomes 1.5m.
- Added a $spec tag which will display the player's current spec - their talent tree with the most points in it.
- Do not use $spec and $talents in the same conditional. It will not work. If you want them on the same line, put them in separate conditionals, like this:

Code:

"{Talents: [$spec]}{ ($talents)}",

instead of:

Code:

"{Talents: [$spec] ($talents)}",

0.26 - Added $talents tag which displays the player's talents.
- Fixed a small issue with tag updates.
- Fixed an error concerning layouts without raid icons or combat icons.
- Various small changes.

0.25 - Fixed a few errors involving the DeleteLine function and unit tags.
- Updated the library.
- Other minor changes.

0.24 - Fixed a tag update issues that concerned "$target".
- Added PreOnSizeChanged and PostOnSizeChanged functions for every tooltip.
- Fixed an issue concerning GameTooltip.FindLine in the library.

0.23 - Updated a few things.
- Colons are now colored according to the tag variable to the left of them.
- Fixed and changed the library.
- Cleaned up code.
- Other miscellaneous changes.

0.22 - Fixed a conflict with GearScore. GearScore tooltip text now displays properly.
-Add override functions (i.e.):
GameTooltip.OverrideSetDefaultAnchor(self, parent)
GameTooltip:PreSetUnit(unit)
GameTooltip:PostSetUnit(unit)
GameTooltip:PreOnShow()
GameTooltip:PostOnShow()
GameTooltip:PreOnHide()
GameTooltip:PostOnHide()
GameTooltip:OverrideUpdateHealthBar(bar, cur, max)
GameTooltip:PreUpdateHealthBar(bar, cur, max)
GameTooltip:PostUpdateHealthBar(bar, cur, max)
GameTooltip:OverrideUpdatePowerBar(bar, cur, max)
GameTooltip:PreUpdatePowerBar(bar, cur, max)
GameTooltip:PostUpdatePowerBar(bar, cur, max)

0.21 - Fixed health bar text, fixed text color, and a few other things changed.

0.2 - Updated to fix memory problem.

Are you using the latest version? It works alright for me. I'm also currently working on a new version of RantTooltip_Classic. When I originally released it, I put the layout together fast and didn't really spend much time on it. It should look and work a lot more like the original once I'm finished.

Hi all
First of all i'll like to say this is a great addon. Been using it for some time now.
I have some questions if someone can help me.
Using the classing layout. The life and mana values do not appear instantly they only show up after some time is this working correctly?
Also using the default layout. Is it possible to make it a bit transparent (like the classic one) ?
Thanks

The Classic layout isn't working correctly ATM. I will release an updated version soon. To make the default layout transparent, add this to your layout function:

Code:

self:SetAlpha(0.75) --change to whatever you want (0-1)

I'll try uploading it as a zip next time.

One last question, is there an easy way to add in the Talent line to the tooltip? Just want to see someone's spec (ex. Fury 32/12/0)

I haven't coded in talents yet, I'm debating whether I want to or not. For now, I think you can use TipTacTalents if you want to see talents. It seems to be working well with RantTooltip.

Hi, thanks for very fast reply!

I updated addon today.

How reproduce the error (for example):
1) Taget yourself.
2) Focus yourself.
3) Put mouse icon on focus frame, the tooltip appears.
4) Without moving the mouse, press ctrl-tab to change target (with square brackets, tooltip doesn't change).

Thanks!

Ah, thanks for catching that. Fixed for next update.

edit: Just uploaded a new version. The RantTooltip Classic layout has also been updated. It should work a lot better now.

I agree.
It works much better than 0.1 version, in my opinion.
Great!

PS: I have the same problem like strawberrie, but I don't understand how to reproduce it. Anyway it happened only a few times...

Thanks for doing a great job. And now to my question: I was wondering if it's possible to hide All of the tooltips while your in combat? When I mouse over a spell or skill I don't want the tooltip to show when in combat. So if there is a solution I would be glad to know..=) Thanks for a great addon!

Waiting for an official answer...

I'm using classic layout, I simply removed the RantTooltip_Layout folder.
I don't known if there is a diferent solution...

Re: How do you use layouts?

If you want to use the classic layout, delete the RantTooltip_Layout folder. RantTooltip_Layout is the default layout that comes with RantTooltip. I'm almost thinking of releasing the default rant layout separately and not including it in the RantTooltip download to avoid confusion.

Could you elaborate? The classic layout has been updated to change border colors according to item quality. If you're trying to set the border color, this might be interfering. You can change this by removing the self.PostOnSizeChanged function.

I don't know if I'm going to add this option just yet. A temporary solution is:

Code:

local show = GameTooltip.Show
GameTooltip.Show = function(...)
    if InCombatLockdown() then
        return
    end
    return show(...)
end

You can add that to almost anywhere in your layout.

This will be fixed for the next update.

No. You have to edit the layout file. The default one should be RantTooltip_Layout.lua.

RantTooltip now uses a layout system that was modeled after oUF.

Find the line that says RantTooltip:SetInitialAnchor. You can change that to whatever you want.

No no, I'm not trying to set the border color...

Original code doesn't work well...

For example, if I open the character pane (or a bag) and I put the cursor mouse on a blue item, the tooltip border changes from blue to grey immediately.
Is it only a my problem?

I've been testing around and i've seen to been able to reproduce it almost 100% of the time.
It seems that if i have the tooltip showing on a enemy that has a mana bar and this enemy dies the error always pops up .
Sometimes it also apears when a enemy without mana dies (not always)
Using the classic layout dont know if it has anything to do with it.
Thanks
