I don't see Tipster posted on this site but since this is a haven for Ace I thought I'd repost:

If you make this small mod:

TestTooltip.toc
## Interface: 1700
## Title: TestTooltip
TestTooltip.xml

TestTooltip.xml
<Ui>
<GameTooltip name="Test_GameTooltip" inherits="GameTooltipTemplate" parent="UIParent" hidden="true"/>
</Ui>

Then do: GameTooltip_SetDefaultAnchor(Test_GameTooltip,UIParent)

Tipster causes an odd SetOwner error if you have defpos defined:

There is no hook to call for table: 11ADC6E8SetOwner

(that exact error came from another user's screen--with UIParent the 11ADC6E8 can be nil but it's usually the table of the parent)

I've looked at the code but unfortunately I don't understand Ace.

Is the tooltip above made properly? If it's made properly, is it possible for this mod to ignore custom tooltips like the one above? It's causing errors in other mods (ItemRack is the one I'm concerned about) trying to use GameTooltip_SetDefaultAnchor on custom tooltips.

Hey Gello

The Ace guys hang out over on the Ace forums

Here's a link to the Tipster Page:

Thanks! I'll go post over there.

I saw your post there and on Curse, but Kaelten had pointed me here already, so I have a fix available now. I'll get Tipster posted here if I can create a dummy screenshot real quick.

That was fast, thanks! Didn't mean to post it all over, just didn't know where it'd be read hehe.
