CowTip

CowTip is a customizeable, tag-based tooltip addon. It is based on Rock and other libraries of the community. It is currently in beta.

CowTip isn't meant to be the smallest addon humanly possible, but it will be clean, configurable, and have the same polish I afford my other addons.

    You set the config and alls great and then you zone into a instance and even tho you check and all the settings are still there, they do not work. TIA

    Loving Cowtip, but the main reason I decided to spring for a tip addon was ArkInventory. All the tips there are attached to the mouse.

    Can Cowtip grab those, or is there another way? Tips flying in my face while browsing my bags is killing me. :P

    Thanks!

    I am finding CowTip to be extremely CPU intensive lately, to the point that I cannot raid with it installed. I downloaded an addon profiler and CowTip is using more CPU time than all my other addons combined. CPU usage goes up the more combat events are being delivered to my client, to the point where a boss fight in a 25 man raid brings my framerate down from 60 to about 10.

    Would love for an update to cowtip. Getting that same invalid font height error as the rest.

    Any chance of adding the same icon feature for items and such like http://s.wowinterface.com/preview/pvw24852.jpg ?

    Cowtip still winds up messing up my other addons during raids, before completely disconnecting me. It would be bad enough as a dps class, but as a healer, I simply can't afford this. I love this addon and I'm hoping you'll fix it, as I've been forced to delete it from my collection of addons until you do. :(

    Thanks for all your hard work!
