Recipe Book

Recipe Book (http://www.wowinterface.com/download...fo.php?id=3989) is pretty completely described there.
In brief: I got tired of writing down the recipes my alts knew, so I wrote something to code it into the tooltip.

Plays nice with AIOI, My Inventory, and BankStatement/BankItems. I use it regularly with Lootlink.

One bug that I'm looking for suggestions on involves the fact that items in the bank require you to have a bag open (any bag will do) in order to show tooltip info. I'm a little stuck on that one.

08 June: Should be playing nice with patch 1.5.
12 June: Noticed a strange little bug with tooltip resizing. Fixed and submitted 0.4a.

27 June : Hm:
Illiath on curse noted the following :

I just installed this addon and I've run into an issue with the way the variables are being defined.

It appears that for new installs the RecipeBookData variable is being defined, but the new "Personal" section of the variables is not being defined for each faction. This means that whenever I attempt to either 1) add chars from another realm or
2) add chars from another faction on the same realm
that the variable is not created correctly. I also cannot see any reason why the variable was created correctly in the first place.

Added in the initialize line, and some secondary move code that should take place when you log in a new character now.
Don't quite know how this got missed, but 0.5.2 is up in the downloads section now.

Appears to conflict with the TooltipsBase family of addons.

With those enabled, I see no Recipe Book tooltips.

With those disabled, Recipe Book tooltips work perfectly.

I'll take a look and see if I can make it play nice. Thanks!

Curious, is it capable of checking specializations?

I have a Weaponsmith and an Armorsmith...

I have a Dragonscale, a Tribal, and an Elemental leatherworker...

(Yes, I'm a tradeskill junkie, hence my enthusiasm for this addon!)

(Gnomish and Goblin engineers are in the works...)

Does Recipe Book currently check for Specializations when determining whether a given toon is eligible to learn a given recipe? Is that even posible, programmatically?

At the moment, it's not checking.
That's on my to-do list, and I -think- programmatically it's possible, but I'll need to kick one of my tradeskill alts up to a level where they have a spec to test it

I'll put it in as a requested to-do and bump the priority a bit, Just For You.

On a glance, I wonder if it isn't Sea that's farking with my tooltips from the Tooltips Base. I'll try adding optional Sea support and seeing if that makes it better.

I would be more than happy to assist in testing any work on Specialization checking - yeah, I know, it'd be a pain to have a third party test, but it's all I can offer o.O

I really like this mod! I'd like to see it have features that work with the Titan bar, and have a box to get all your info and options. If the auther does see this, I think ther would be alot of people like that.......if not, any one able to do that? I know nothing about coding, therefore I do not know if that would be terribly difficult or not ??
