NOTE: The menu is accessed through right-clicking the border of the frame, OR, Alt-Rightclicking a loot item. Tooltips explain all yet-undocumented options :)
[edit]
What it does
- Substitutes a new window for the loot frame whenever you loot a mob, open a chest, disenchant a item, or even open a clam.
- This new window will resize to the amount of loot on the mob, and will shrink with every item looted (if /xloot collapse is on)
- The new window can be dragged if /xloot lock is not enabled, by dragging any of the loot.
- If /xloot cursor is on, it will position itself beneath the mouse every time you show it. If off, it will stay where you drag it, and it saves this position after logout.
- When you loot a item with /xloot smartsnap on, it will move the window so your cursor is over the next item without moving the frame from side to side. It's much easier on my eyes ;)
- If /xloot collapse is On, XLoot will collapse the list every time you loot a item, and allow the cursor to focus on the next item if cursor is on. If off, the loot frame will act like the blizzard frame, and leave gaps where loot was, and not focus the cursor on the next item to loot, even if cursor is on.
- Uses a frame backdrop for its looks. /xloot bgcolor and /xloot bordercolor will pop up a color wheel for their respective elements
- If /xloot qualityborder is on, the border will be colored according to the rarest loot item.
- The new window will also match your oSkinned interface if /xloot oskin is on.
- The window can be scaled independantly with /xloot scale
- More options are available through /xloot or right-clicking the XLoot frame (Or Alt-Right-Clicking loot)

XLoot and Other Mods
Seeing as XLoot is getting compared to mods such as FruityLoots, the major differences are:
- XLoot positions loot very similarly to FruityLoots, as it was the best example. =)
- FruityLoots is not meant to change the loot window, XLoot is. XLoot also resizes this window appropriately when loot is opened or removed.
