Description

Super simple and lightweight script that makes the in-game mouse tooltip follow the cursor instead of staying in the lower right section. Works indifferently for Classic and Retail.

Thank you to https://www.curseforge.com/members/bakatrinh/projects for the initial script. I had to adapt it for Retail, following the breaking changes brought by Dragonflight.

The features introduced by the original author:

  • The target unit tooltip follows the mouse
  • The name of the player is color coded based on their class
  • The guild name of the player is displayed
  • The PVP status of the player is displayed on the bottom
  • If the unit is an NPC, the tooltip will indicate the faction they belong to
