About this addon
What it does
Custom Tooltips is an AddOn to display custom tooltips for your macros.
Add tooltips at the top of core.lua and display them in your macro by adding #customtooltip TooltipName to the macro.
You can also define your tooltips in the macro itself using #tooltipdesc Heading Text^Body Text somewhere in the macro.
CompatibilityCustom Tooltips works with the default action bars and the following AddOns:
- ElvUI
- ButtonForge
- Any AddOn that uses LibActionButton (e.g. Bartender4)
- Opie
- ConsolePort
If you'd like support added for another action bar, please leave a comment.
Important: Due to this bug introduced by Blizzard in 10.2.0, Custom Tooltip currently requires macros to have unique names when using the default macro system with the default action bars, ElvUI, LibActionButton or ConsolePort.
Source CodeYou can view the AddOn's source code on GitHub.
The AddOn and its source code are licensed under the MIT License.
CreditsThanks to Floralae and Aireckschitt for their posts in this thread which inspired me to write Custom Tooltips.
