    I foulnd that auctioneer would forever flash up the full auction data for every object in my backpaxk.. which was getting a tad annoying as it kept hidding the bag i was looking in ,, so i tried typing in some of the commands when i entered"/auctioneer" in chat
    there was one stating to type "/auctioneer toggle" which i did, and lo.. the auctioneer info would not show when browsing my own bags... BUT... this is tiggled right!? so what button am i supposed to press to show the auctioneer info on demand? I had not switched it off... just toggled.. so it should be there somewhere
    I might be having a dense moment.. but i just cant find it

    by using /auctioneer toggle you deactivated auctioneer (see the documentation for detailed command information).

    I'm not 100% sure, but I think there is no way to just display the tt when a key is pressed atm (that was only possible for mesh previews in 3.0.10, afaik).

    so there is no way to have the info come up on demand(ie toggle it)? it will flash up on the screen regardless as to whether you need to see the info or not?
    hmmmm.
    I like auctioneer.. it has already made me gather a nice profit on miss-priced goods... BUT I would like it to show it when i need it to show. I dont really need it to show the auction price every time i go into my backpack to check on something.
    can something be added into the mechanics of auctioneer to flash auction prices automatically when highlighting in auction house/chat/loot etc.... but not auto show up when moving over an item in your backpack...maybe to show when you double click or hit a certain key ....
    lets face it.. once it is in your backpack... you dont really need to see the auction price every time you open it for your items... only when you are actually selling in AH, then you want to see them show up.
    I might be trying to get something that can't be done, done... but I thought it worthy to bring up at least.
    I dont want to switch it off until i hit Ah just so it doesnt keep flashing up the info when i dont need it

    Type "/auctioneer toggle" to turn it both off and on.
  5.  
    that is what i am doing atm.. does it link a specific key to press to get auctioneer info(ie toggling the info on demand without all the typing of /auctioneer toggle?
    As i am not sure of the mechanics of auctioneer, I am not sure that it needs to be switched on all the time to enable it to search(ie is it searching all the time?) or is it realistic to "toggle" it back on when i want to see it?
    I love the inof it gives... just I would like it to show when i need it

    There will be a option to bind info to a key for container items or all items in the next version. (ie the tooltip info will only appear if you are holding CTRL/ALT/SHIFT down when you mouse over it.)

    We are in the process of adding this at the moment

    'nother idea would be to have an option only to show the data while standing inside the auction house and/or IF bank and/or IF itself.

    Not easily do-able, I'm afraid (well, maybe the inside Ironforge/Orgrimmar/Gadgetzan one is easy enough, we'll see about that one)

    That's not an option. I pick up a lot of whites that get sold to the vendor if they don't have a high enough median buyout.

    And with the toggle, just write a macro to a button and bind a key to that button.

    Question:
    Right now, when I hover my mouse over my used Backpacks, I get the large Tooltip from Auctioneer/Enchantrix/Informant, except when I hover over my "standard"-Backpack (the one you have since Level 1).

    Since I really want to know this info about Bags lying within one of my Bags, I surely don't want it on the Bags I actually use...

    Can't you just check if the mouse is over the HotBar/BagBar/ActionBar, and if so, simply hide the Tooltip?
    This way nobody would have to hold a key to see the info while hovering over them...

    It's just that I don't want to see Infos on stuff in my HotBar/BagBar/ActionBar at the bottom of the screen. I want those Infos when looking at the Items within my bag, no matter if it's a bag or another Item...
