Tooltips Won't Stay Where They Belong

Turestel · 09-22-09, 11:52 PM

I've used the /nui movers to move the tooltips to a different part of my screen. I've also used /nui tooltips fixed to make certain that all tooltips will display in that position. This works fine until I logoff.

Once I log back on, the tooltips show up in the upper left-hand corner of the screen... definitely not where I placed them with /nui movers. Once I re-enable the movers and then disable them, the tooltips will then continue to show up in the proper position (where I had placed them in a previous session), until I logoff again.

In other words, I have to repeat this enabling/disabling procedure everytime I logon. Is there something I can do about this?

Thanks,
Tur

Do you have any other tooltip mods installed?

If you change the settings of other features of nUI (like use '/nui roundmap' to change the minimap shape) and log out of WoW, then back in, do those settings also reset?

I have no other tooltip mods installed unless some other mod does something to tooltips of which I am unaware.

In fact, one of the first things I did was change the shape of the minimap to round. That setting (as well as others) is retained between sessions. The only one that doesn't stay put is the tooltip position.

I'm going to disable all other addons and see what happens. If the tooltip works properly, then I'll re-enable each addon one at a time and see what happens. I'll let you know.

OK... so I backed up my addons folder and my wtf folder and started from scratch with nothing bu nUI installed. I still had the same problem. I found something interesting though. If I move the tooltips to the right side of my screen, they act as they should and stay put between sessions. It is only if I have them situated on the left side of my screen that the position does not get retained. I've attached two screenshots to show what is happening.

Ever find a fix for this? Or a solution?

I have this same exact issue as well. In a raid atm, but can post more info if needed..

I'm not sure that it's technically broken, to be honest. It has to do with how Bliz's tooltips treat their anchor. If you can post some more info / screen shots, it would help me look into it.

Also, have you don't a clean install and tried it with nUI being the *only* mod that's enabled?
