Macro Tooltips [MacroTT-V] for Vanilla WoW

Create custom tooltips in macros. MacroTT fills in for the missing #showtooltip command that World of Warcraft 1.12 doesn't have.

Usage

MacroTT provides four slash commands to use in macros.

/mtts <spell name> Displays the tooltip for the spell listed. The name must match exactly.

/mtte <equipment slot> Displays the tooltip for item currently equipped in the equipment slot. Equipment slot can be one of: ammo, head, neck, shoulder, body, chest, waist, legs, feet, wrist, hands, finger, finger1, trinket, trinket2, cloak, mainhand, offhand, ranged, wand, tabard.

/mttc <custom header text> Displays a tooltip with the custom header text. This is usually followed by additional text (/mtta)

/mtta <additional text> Adds the additional text to any of the above tooltips. Multiple /mtta lines can be used and blank lines are valid.

Note that macro names must be unique. The addon finds macros by name to read the macro body (GetActionInfo wasn't available until patch 2.0.1).

Compatibility

MacroTT has been tested to work with:

  • stock UI bars
  • Bongos
  • Discord Action Bars (as of v1.1 - 2018-04-08)

It may work with others. Please let us know.
