    I am posting this message here because EnhTooltip, Stubby and Informant don't have their own sections.

    Ocassionaly i need more then 30 lines in my tooltip, for instance with a Nightscape Headband:
    [attachmentid=102]

    I see references to EnhancedTooltipText as in: local currentLine = getglobal("EnhancedTooltipText"..i)
    where i is always between 1 and 30.

    But I can't find the globals EnhancedTooltipText1 thru 30, so I am stuck with the 30 lines.
    Where are these globals defined? Or better: how do I increase the numbers of lines?

    We will be increasing the tooltip limit sometime before 3.4 goes out. You can do this yourself easily inside the Tooltip.xml file.

    Any chance on having the tooltip that is called with the bonded key list the complete Enchantrix and Auctioneer information?

    Right now, you press the key and get a very big box that is mostly empty. If the Auctioneer and Enchantrix data were there, we could use the compact mode in the tooltip (or even turn off the tooltip entirely). That would be very neat because some of the tooltip takes a lot of space on screen.

    Hmm. I was searching for "EnhancedTooltipText1", forgot about the name="$parentText1" construct.
    Have to get better with this Lua and widget stuff.
    Thanks.

    Unfourtunately that is an Informant-only frame. It would take a considerable ammount of work to include Auctioneer and Enchantrix data in there. If you would still like this to be considered, please open a ticket for it.
