CowTip

Table of Contents

This project is abandoned and its default file will likely not work with the most recent version of World of Warcraft. Whether this project is out of date or its author has marked it as abandoned, this project is no longer maintained.

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.

I have an issue where I need to reload cowtip whenever I re-enable the main blizzard action bar. I use Macaroon, and cowtip works great. But when I need to use the default bar for vehicles, I lose the font size I had set, and need to reload or toggle it on and off.

Can we please get a fix for the 'sticky' tooltips, unable to drag item tooltips near top of screen without them snapping into place all the way at the top.

CowTip doesn't show HP of WALLs in the battle of Wintergrasp and Strand of the Ancients battleground. This is very annoying, waiting desperately for fix on this issue.

There's a problem with texture creation that kills the UI within a couple of hours and forces you to /rl to fix it. Would love to see this very annoying bug fixed.

I had the same problem till I figured out that it was an issue with pitbull. For some reason my UI crashed after some time mostly during raids while hammering my buttons on bongos. Nothing worked when it crashed, only reload ui did fix it for some time. There seems to be some problems between pitbull and cowtip.

is there a way to make it so the color of the tooltip background for mobs reflects whether you still get experience for killing them? I.e. the background turns grey for mobs that I won't receive xp for

Fading is working nice for me, instead its causing insande memory issues after a few hours of instances/raids causing me to crash out.

I know ck has work to do with the merge, but it would be nice if he atleast aknowledged the issues....

I am having a problem with the tooltip border display cutting off when using the Dogtag text lines. For some reason it does not extend the border past the initial tooltip and all the other information is just bunched up underneath it. This started when 3.0.3 was released.

Yep, latest version does NOT fix the fading issue. Great mod, but the fading thing is very problematic.
