(former CowTip_LuaText)
Allows to configure the content of unit-tooltips with custom Lua-Codes.
It uses a modified version of PitBull4's LuaText-ScriptEnv.
Some functions were removed.
Some new were added.
Some were modified to better suite for tooltips.
If Cowtip is installed it automatically disables cowtips built-in dogtag-based text-module.

Take a look at the colored name example, for colored text you need to use the text = Colorize(text, r,g,b) function. That way it worked for me.

rakkarage Apr 18, 2011 at 00:51 UTC - 0 likesi used to use
to show colored health on tooltip... now it doesn't work? the color shows the code?
this still works without the color... how can i fix the color or use the Colorize function to make this work? thanks a lot :)
edit1: that original code still works if i copy my old lua config backups... but if i take code and copy it to another window... it looses its color? edit2: it seems to add an extra | to the color code when i copy it? cannot see or edit that edtra | in the gui only in the lua and fixing that fixed it
http://forums.wowace.com/showthread.php?t=19388 oh i need to use the code for '|' i guess

foreverphk Dec 05, 2010 at 04:18 UTC - 0 likesI find that TipTop (from wowinterface) works perfectly with Tooltip - LuaTexts. TipTop can modify the anchor, background border and healthbar and this addon can modify the texts inside.

can be used to modify the tooltip anchor (by default in bottom right corner)
you can also use tinytip or tiptac to do the other stuff. just make sure that they don't modify the tooltip text too.

Locals: (*temporary) = "100% Threat"
and it says in chat:
An error occured in a LuaText!
Code:
return Faction or ''
Args:
[1] 100% Threat
this seems to be coming from blizzard adding threat text to tooltip? idk...
i removed the "return Faction or ''" line as a workaround but would like to add it back
thanks
