What is the enhancement in mind? How should it look and feel?
What I would like to see is clickable professions in the dropdown that allows you to access that profession, rather than just a static list of the professions and their skill levels, like Fubar_ProfessionsFu and AckisRecipeList_QuickScan.
Please provide any additional information below.
Nice addon, I like the clarity of the text and that it shows cooldowns of all character tradeskills.

The basic issue is that the "protection" that remains around this method is that it MUST be executed inside a hardware event handler (namely, OnClick). OnEnter, OnLeave, or deeper inside the SetLineScript that this one uses aren't valid. Trying to think of a good way around this. I haven't given up yet. Just focusing on Broker_Factions atm

Yah, dealing with click-to-open-Blizz-frames via LQT has more peculiarities/limitations than rolling your own handler. HeyFu (now a LDB mod) had problems with it, thus is using Dewdrop. The aforementioned AckisRecipeList_QuickScan creates its own dropdown handler. Ara Broker Tradeskills that I mentioned uses the GameTooltip.
One of the few mod's I've tested that performs a function elsewhere in the UI through LQT is EmoteLDB.

Zidomo May 02, 2011 at 15:43 UTC - 0 likesSomething to look at that may make adding the feature faster: Ara Broker Tradeskills uses LibQTip only (no Dewdrop, etc.) and allows you to click all your professions on a character to open them from a LibQTip dropdown tooltip list. Does not taint or cause other issues, either. Its the _only_ mod I have yet seen/tested that allows you to open profession frames from a dropdown tooltip list without issues or conditions.
AckisRecipeList_QuickScan also has a LibQTip tooltip dropdown to open things from, but it requires AckisRecipeList to be active and it opens the AckisRecipeList frame at the same time (potentially bothersome on characters that have maxed professions). FuBar_ProfessionsFu is, of course, outdated & obsolete...and started tainting badly after Cataclysm hit (won't open some tradeskill frames). Other tested mods (Broker_Skills, Broker_Professions, etc.) don't provide a LDB dropdown tooltip that can open tradeskills.
So something to look at & hopefully can be added without too much issue.
