  • Tooltip Transparency: Adjust the transparency of the tooltip.

Blizzard Tooltip Integration

  • Show Blizzard Tooltip: Enable/disable extra lines in the Blizzard tooltip.
  • Show Header/Footer: Add dashed lines above/below the tooltip for clarity.

Clique Addon Support

  • If you use the popular Clique addon for click-casting, Click-To-Cast-Tooltip will automatically detect and display your Clique bindings in the tooltip.
  • You can choose to show only Clique bindings, only Blizzard bindings, or both (configurable in the settings).
  • On first load with Clique installed, you'll be prompted to disable Blizzard bindings for a cleaner experience (one-time prompt).

How It Works

When you hover over a unit frame, the addon scans your click-cast bindings and displays a tooltip showing which actions are available for the current modifier keys and mouse button. The tooltip updates dynamically as you press or release modifier keys.
