Spell System API & Events have several major changes.

• UnitAura - dropped second parameter (nameSubtext). Also, no longer supports querying by spell name.

• GameTooltip:GetSpell - dropped second parameter (nameSubtext).

• GetSpellInfo - second parameter used to return Spell.nameSubtext -- now returns nil.

Belows are Tiptac codes which would be affected by BfA API changes.(I'm not sure I've found all the errors.)

Is there a way to get tiptac to work with displaying MRP/TRP addon information?

any updates for BfA? currently last version posted will not work in BfA

I am having a transparency issue. I can't make the backgound solid. I have it set to solid and the slider all the way up and it's still transparent. My eyes are not the best and being transparent I have a hard time seeing text on the tooltip. Someone already created a ticket on the project page from July of 2016 and it's still not fixed! Does anyone know how to fix this?

Edit: Nevermind I switched to TinyTooltip/ TinyInspect. It does everything TipTac does and more.

My framerate has been diving a lot when the game used to run smoothly. I disabled all addons and one by one re enabled them and TipTac wound up being the culprit. I'll get random lock ups for a few seconds and it seems to happen if I mouse over stuff. Not sure if there's one cause exactly because when I try mousing over the same items or mobs or people or whatever it doesn't happen again. Until some time later when I wind up mousing over something new. Usually this is in a dungeon or BG but also happens when out questing. TipTac didn't use to do this, but since I came back to wow (patch 7.3.2) and started up after a year long break it's been causing issues. Wish I could pin it down to something more specific.

I'm getting errors every time I mouse over a combat pet (mine or another player's). I get a single first complete error message, then it just becomes a partial error message. It was working fine last summer, just got back into the game after a break. French client.

Complete message :

1x [ADDON_ACTION_FORBIDDEN] AddOn 'TipTac' tried to call the protected function 'CastItemSpellOnFollowerAbility()'.

This error is preventing me from doing anything with my followers while at the "table" either in class hall or the argus place, however i can add equipment using the minimap screen.

Thanks for the reply ZaephirMoth, sorry for this late reply.

I will have to try that simplestats addon maybe. But changing the font in tiptacs general area I think would make the normal tooltip extremely large just to get the tiny comparision tooltip size decent. A response from the editor of this addon would be nice.

  Hello again !

  I don't know if it's still worth reporting troubles here, but I just spotted a minor bug : TipTac's combat options 2 doesn't seem to work anymore, for some reason... Meaning that "Hide All Unit Tips in Combat" still does function as expected and that "Still Show Hidden Tips when Holding Shift" will affect it, but "Hide Units Tips for Units Frames in Combat" doesn't, which is quite troublesome : one can have either all tooltips shown during combat or none (save for the use of the Shift key), but can't limit that option to engaged units anymore. Tested on two characters, with and without any other addons, so it's definetely TipTac's fault...

  Thank you in advance for any little support you may still provide ! It's very welcomed here... Cheers !

Great addon, I just got back to WoW and had to reinstall this. Only thing is for some reason when I shift and mouse over a piece of gear to get the comparison tooltip, the comparison tooltip font is very small and hard to read? Is there any way to adjust the fonts on the compare tooltip?

In reply to Clamdigger70:

In reply to Clamdigger70:

the tooltip is currently not displaying the proper itemlevel for artifact weapons with relics altered at the netherlight crucible.

It does not take into account the extra itemlevel for these relics.

As a result, my tooltip shows 15 itemlevel below what it should be. 

can you fix it please :)

 is there a way to have fixed width notes in tooltips? Artifactpower is shown over 1/3 of my monitor and overlaps a lot of my buttons. Same with some questmobs.

No? This addon really needs an word wrap. Anyone knows a better addon than this? I would love to have an answer

When i have a relic in my inventory and wanna compar it with shift-click my fps goes down?! What could that be? When i compare other things like neck or shoulder or something like that does not happen.

  Greetings !

  I've just started to use your excellent addon, which (taking in account all aspects) really seems the best I've tried so far, so I wanted to congratulate you for it ! I've read here that you no longer play WoW, but be sure that lots of people must appreciate deeply your continuing efforts related to such great tools !

  Thanks a lot for your work ! I didn't try yet any of your other projects, but can only hope they'll receive one day the same care... Cheers !

Thanks a lot for the update!!! <3
