Can you link a screen shot for me?

I've never used Fontifier but SocialState changed from Tabletlib to LibQTip. It uses GameTooltipText / GameTooltipHeaderText. Not sure if that info will lead you to a solution.

Yeah, storing friend info for later parsing would be a good idea long-term.

Check my last post, just added some extra info if you need it.

Ahh true.

Horde returns zero. Which isn't an issue since only 2 factions exist. Can check for game type later on.

Perhaps a long term place is to put everything into a table for sorting. And then make a parser so that people can design their own look.

I'd still place notes on the far right. I'm thinking something like this:

Real ID
COL 1 - Level (no field)
COL 2/3 - (Check if in group)Realname - [Toon name](AFK/DND)
COL 4/5 - Location .. Could be (FactionIcon)Realm Name - Zone
COL 6 - Note

Friends
COL 1 - Level (no field)
COL 2 - Name
COL 3/4 - Zone
COL 5/6 - Note

Guild
COL 1 - Level (no field)
COL 2 - Name
COL 3 - Zone
COL 4 - Rank
COL 5/6 - Player Note / Officer Note

Returns from the BNet info functions are a little awkward. Factions return as a number, not a string. Alliance returned 1 for me, don't have a horde friend to crossreference. Just a heads-up. Might be easier to just use the 11th(?) return of BNGetFriendToonInfo, which is a Zone-Realm string.

Edit: Here's all returns I get from BNGetFriendToonInfo() when checking a RealID friend on the same realm and faction. Might be useful if you don't have concrete data yet. AceConsole is a wonderful thing.
Code:
1 = true (unsure),
2 = "CharName",
3 = "WoW" (game identifier),
4 = "RealmName",
5 = 1 (faction, I'm alliance and thus assuming 2 is horde),
6 = "Race",
7 = "Class",
8 = "empty string of some sort",
9 = "Zone",
10 = "Level" (use tonumber(level) for difficulty color if ya want, it's a string for some reason),
11 = "Zone - Realm",
12 = "empty string of some sort" (probably note?),
13 = 0 (no idea),
14 = true (no idea)
Edit 2: RealID friend color is 00b1f0 (r = 0, g = 177, b = 240) if you need it.

The extra info in RealID takes up quite a bit of space, resulting in the tooltip having a lot of dead space on the right side for the friend/guild portion. I'm thinking some of the information could be consolidated like so:

Real Name | Toon | Level | Location* | Note

*: If the player is on WoW and on the same server+faction, show zone. If on a different server or faction, show as "Server/Faction". If playing a different game, show the game name instead.
Torhal showed me the error of my ways so it was fixed :-)

I love the Location idea. I'm also thinking about mergining Real Name / Toon name. And yeah the Level to the left makes a lot of sense.

See what you think of this:

Real ID
COL 1 - Level (no field)
COL 2/3 - (Check if in group)Realname - [Toon name](AFK/DND)
COL 4 - Note
COL 5/6 - Location .. Could be (FactionIcon)Realm Name - Zone

Friends
COL 1 - Level (no field)
COL 2 - Name
COL 3/4 - Note
COL 5/6 - Zone

Guild
COL 1 - Level (no field)
COL 2 - Toon
COL 3/4 - Player Note / Officer Note
COL 5 - Zone
COL 6 - Rank

Very nice. I love the new away/dnd icons. Haven't noticed the font bug you mentioned quite yet.

*: If the player is on WoW and on the same server+faction, show zone. If on a different server or faction, show as "Server/Faction". If playing a different game, show the game name instead.

Seeing the real name first would make a little more sense than having it at the far right, especially when rarely seen alts are involved. It does break up the tooltip's consistency a bit though. I'll whip up something on my end and PM you with the code once I've got something workable.

I was actually thinking of placing the level to the left of the name, possibly even without a header. Honestly though, it's completely fine how it is now. It just seemed to have too much spacing when I first tried SocialState. Justification looks about perfect across the board.

1.3.1 is the LibQTip version.

I'll start messing with the layout a bit tonight. I have a lot on the todo list. Lots of great suggestions. I'm going to hit the Config real hard soon.

3) Definitely left.

I'd move the level column to the far left and make it a bit more narrow, myself. The status column could do with being concatted into the name fields as well.
You are on the same wave length as me. I already removed the status column. Icons go to the right of the name from status. I'm thinking about adding faction and game for RealID.

Def blue for Real Name.

I could reduce LEVEL to LVL I suppose. Far right did you mean?

LibQTip is so awesome. Easy to port to. I just have 1 weird bug that I'll probably release with to get ideas on how to fix. (Bottom SetCell takes the font size off top SetCell after 2nd displaying of the tool tip).

Will make a note of this. In the process of porting this to LibQtip.

Looking for some input as to preferences:

1) For RealID should Real Name be the first field instead of Toon Name?
2) Should the default color for fields (Zone, Real Name, Notes) be white?
3) And Left justified or center?

I find myself looking for real names as I get use to seeing them in replies now.
And the second thing is because LibQtip's default is white and it made me wonder.

After trying out SocialState (replacing Ara's plugin) for a bit, I really like it. Props for a great friends/guild list.

Keep up the great work, CodeRedLin.

EDIT: I lied, I just happened to log on to a bunch of guildies without officer notes. You rock.

EDIT 2: A clicky to edit the officer note would be completely awesome though. I'd recommend ctrl+rightclick.

Glad it is working for you. I dread patch day so much because I'm not the greatest programmer in the world and I always fear something will break that I won't understand how to fix. It felt good to add RealID without anyone's code to study (ahem Ara's).

I'm retiring from raiding until Cataclysm. So all that time can go into this mod and owning lowbies in battlegrounds
