    I am pleased to announce that with the help of Nephyrin and Gravix (from irc://irc.datavertex.com/norganna and irc://irc.datavertex.com/cosmostesters respectively)for their invaluable help in creating this fix. We have been able to sqash this extremely annoying bug.

    In order to apply the fix please download and install revision 677 (or above) of EnhTooltip available here and your overlapping issues will be fixed.
  2.  
    Thank you very much!
    You guys kick ass.
  3.  
    Yay! Thanks!

    Definitely, thanks for all the hard work. One thing I noticed however. Sometimes, I still get the overlap problem hovering over certain items, but not all. If I then hover over something else and then back over the problem item, it works fine. So it's functional, but still not perfect. FYI.

    Thanks for your hard work on fixing this annoying bug, i too have had the continued overlap on some items, but rarely am I able to correct it by moving over a different functional item. Still works far better than before. Thanks again.

    Hi, thanks for the quick patch, I seem to have the same problem as wildcard, but if I move over other items 3 or 4 times eventually it coirrects itself. So far the problem seems solely to be with tradegoods for me now. But this may just be that I have a tonne of trade goods.

    P.S. Love the addon been using it for quite some time now. I also like the changes in 677.

    EDIT:
    If you use Cosmos' AllInOneInventory mod and are still getting overlaps with mental's new changes,

    you might try changing line 1520 of AllInOneInventory\AllInOneInventory.lua from "tooltip:SetOwner(this, "ANCHOR_LEFT")" to "tooltip:SetOwner(this, "ANCHOR_NONE");" This will temporarily fix the conflict without causing the gryphon destanations to disappear. If you apply this change, make sure to rerun the cosmos updater once a new patch for enhtooltip is released to reverse the changes.

    Thanks for the fix. But i still have a tiny little bug when i move my mouse over my Bags. But hey, the current version of Auctioneer is in Status "unstable", so a fix will come.

    Question: What happened to the cool http://auctioneeraddon.com/images/itempreview.jpg Item Mesh Preview? I can´t find it anymore.

    edit: Seems that it is kinda unstable. When i view others equipment, expecially Weapons, Bracers and Rings the bug is still there.

    How can i disable the "Sell Price" within the ToolTip?

    Only had the overlap issue which I addressed by adjusting sheight to 200. I applied this "fix" and had some big problems. When I went to a flight master and put my mouse on a destination, the box came up blank? Made a level and went to select a talent point, all description boxes were blank? When in the AH and looking at items, those items I was wearing or using no longer showed up as a comparison to what I had selected. I reinstalled 3.2, updated for 10900 and while I still have the overlap issues all of those above mentioned went away. I then changed sheight from 2 to 200 and fixed the overlap issue. Something is FUBAR with this fix!
  11.  
    Hey, is there any way to get a description of what was done to "fix" the overlapping tooltips? I was looking at the code for a while, and am curious to find out specifically what was done to resolve it? All I can tell that was done by a quick glance is the addition of a new hooked function to be called before GameTooltip:SetOwner, to change the anchor parameter if the EnhancedTooltip is shown. Is that all?
  12.  
    Hiya ... love auctioneer and all associated with it, but can I report a problem with the newly fixed EnhTooltip please? Yes it fixes the overlapping problem perfectly, thank you .... but now, when you (for example) go to the AH and select a new piece of armour, the pop-up box that did show you what you currently have equipped is now completely blank!

    Any ideas, please? I've had to revert back to the overlapping version (and other members of my guild report the same thing, it's not just mine)

    thanks
  13.  
    sry to be negative here, but the fix hasnt fixed anything for me, still getting the overlapping problems, i NEED this mod, so i kinda need help here
  14.  
    Just to confirm what I reported earlier is exactly what Rhiannon is saying. Appreciate all the effort.
  15.  
    Mmm, odd tho, I'm not getting this with any other box than the AH one. My flight boxes are all fine, as are talents etc - I'm only seeing this empty box with the AH already-equipped comparison box.

    Odd.
  16.  
    The new 677 version fixed the overlap problem for me. Thank you so much for your work in solving the problem.
  17.  
    Hello,

    i founded some bugs in 677 build dont know where to report them so ill report them here.

    Tooltip overlap isnt fixed at all cases. In the quest log where is a single item reward from the q is tooltip still overlayed, where is 2 or more rewards when you put your mouse for the first time on any item tooltip is overlayed then when u put mouse your mouse on next item it is ok and the first item tooltip is now ok too.

    In the AH i have same problem as rhiannon wrote and this problem with blank box is almost at all vedors with items that are compared with your equip and somewhere is this bug combined with bug from q log.

    I hope this will help to you and sorry for my bad english

    I am having same problem with new update regarding the compare armor at AH. And as MorbiT stated when recieving quest rewards the items again overlap

    You folks are doing a FANTASTIC job with this ui/uis !! Keep up the great work.

    I will be checking back often as we await the troublesome fix to the EnhToolTip.

    That got eliminated a long time ago (circa version 3.0.11)

    it appears the continued overlap has something to due with the direction you approach the item in your bags.

    I use AIOI and Auctioneer Complete, and if some items are approached from the left the windows do not over lap, but if I come from the right they do.
  22.  
    I'm having the same problems as others, occasionally the overlap still happens but it is fixed by mousing over a working item and giong back to the original item. Sometimes I also get a blank tooltip, it seems to only happen when mousing over a special event item (mistletoe, snowball, Free Ticket Voucher).

    EDIT:

    Also having some blank tooltips when inspecting and mousing over trinkets, rings and chest armor.

    yeah same here, most of the time its ok tho
  24.  
    ok, after reading what everyone else has posted on the update, which by the way thank you for all the hard work. One of the mods I miss the most, when Blizzard screws it up.

    Anyway, after reading some of the problems everyone else is still having, I went back into the game and did a little testing with my toons and here is what I noticed so far.

    Seams the overlap only happens in certain places on the screen. I opened up my bank vault and all the bags I have and those are positioned in the upper left hand corner of my screen. Didn't have any over lap issues with any bank items, or bags. I then opend all my personal bags, those are all positioned along the right side of my screen, going vertical 3 bags and the other two vertical to the left of the first 3. Most of my items in my bags, didn't have any problems, however, the middle bags when I moused over the bag icon when it's open has over lap. It was just the bag icon that had the overlap, the items in those bags didn't have any problems. I also noticed that if you moved your mouse left to right over your bags, when you get to the default backpack the tool tip comes up blank, but if you move off and move towards it right to left, it gives you the proper tooltip. Hope all that made some kind of sense.

    One other issues that I've had for some time and not sure if it's related to your mod, or something with my system, but when ever I open a link that has been sent thru the chat channels, the price into doesn't go away when you close the link. I have to mouse over another item for that part of the popup to go away.

    Anyway, that's my two cents worth, thank you again for all the hard work and don't forget to take some time for yourslef. Fixing this mod isn't all that important if it means taking time away from your family. What you have posted so far is workable and I for one can live with what I got.

    Take care

    Halaman

    Edit: Oh one other thing, not a bug, but something I have problems with. Is there a way to change the background to a more solid color? Being able to see the thru the popup gets confusing when text from underneath shows through. Being color blind on Red and Green, some of the Red text on your popup is lost to me with the clutter from the text underneath.
  25.  
    hum... I'm very sorry.... but I don't see fix of ANY kind after I installed new package...

    But I found a way to fix this.. for me it works 100%.
    I went into EnhTooltip folder and opened Tooltip.lua with my wordpad, searched line

    if (enhTooltipParentRect.cy < sHeight/2) then
    yAnchor = "TOP"
    else
    yAnchor = "BOTTOM"
    end

    from there and modified it to:

    if (enhTooltipParentRect.cy < sHeight/200) then
    yAnchor = "TOP"
    else
    yAnchor = "BOTTOM"
    end
  26.  
    U guys are awsome! ive enjoyed the auctioneer as soon as i joined wow, i too have experienced some recurring overlap but will try the hover over other items method. Thanks for all the hard work!!!
  27.  
    As far as i noticed the Tooltip still overlaps, if you first hover over an item which you didnt saw in an auction before and than over an item you saw in auction.

    Further testings got me to think it has something to do with empty slots in your bag. Hover over empty slot, than over an item -> overlap.

    Seams the overlap only happens in certain places on the screen..................................



    This is exactly the same thing I am experiencing with the fix applied. Here is what I have observed though.

    If you divide the screen into 4 Quadrants, the only quad that does not work correctly, has overlap, is the Lower Right Quadrant. If you open bags in any other quadrant it works.

    I dragged my Character Info screen to the Lower Right Quadrant and I got a different result than the bags. Some of the items overlapped and some of them did not.

    Also the closer you get to the left side of the screen, when you mouse over, it does not adjust for that and put the tool tip on the right side. The information is off the screen at that point.

    I have also observed that while in the Middle of the screen you seem to get a rather large gap between the tootip display and the item.

    I tried these tests with the following mods enabled and disabled and got the same results so I have ruled them out.

    Equipcompare, Moveable/Mobile Frames

    I hope this helps others. You can get the Moveable Bags Mod and just do your mouseovers somewhere other than the lower right quadrant of the screen until they can get a fix I guess.

    Keep up the great work guys.

    Hello everyone,

    Since version 677, I have not been able to replicate the overlapping tooltip bug myself. All those with problems still, can you please try only loading Auctioneer, Stubby, EnhTooltip, and Informant? Disable all other addons and see if you can replicate the bug. Also, list what version of Auctioneer you are running and how you are able to consistently get the overlapping tooltip.

    As for the blank tooltip, I get that myself with version 681 with all items in the browse auction window.

    Thanks,
    Frizzle
  32.  
    Ok I was able to replicate a couple instances where I get the overlapping tooltip using version 681.

    In the first instance, I had all woolen bags. If you hover over the circular icon of the woolen bag just above the backpack, then I get the tooltip overlap. If you hover over any item and then move into the circular icon of the bag, the overlap isn't present.

    In the second instance, I had all runecloth bags. The same thing occurs but for the bag on the lower left side.

    I am attaching screenshots of what I mean. Isn't anyone else able to replicate this?

    Hi,

    Erm well sure it fixed the overlap but .. we had a wierd bug ( 3 ppl) - we lost ALL our rep screen/data (Couldnt use AD biscuits etc etc) - Disable Auctioneer and the rep comes back ...

    Literlally the entire tab for Reputation was blank .. any ideas?

    [Edit:]

    It seems to be an initial bug once you gain some rep with someone everythign returns to normal -- still very wierd
  34.  
    I had the same overlap problem. Used enhtooltip-3.3.0.0677 (unstable) and that fixed the overlap problem.

    Now I have two new errors.

    First as noted above that in the AH, the secondary item comparison screen is blank.
    Second I do not have any AH data listed, even after scanning again.

    Essentially auctioneer is useless at this point. The same problems exist whether I'm using auctioneer-3.3.0.0670 (beta) or auctioneer-3.3.0.0681 (unstable).

    Great plug-ins so far. I am confident that you will find a solution to these issues.

    Edit: solved problem 2: I merely had to manually load Auctioneer (/auctioneer on) to get my auction price data displayed.

    The mesh item preview was removed a long time ago, and we currently have no plans of adding it back since the built-in wardrobe feature is a lot better

    Tried this method, after experiencing some overlaps still with trade goods (dark runes, bandages, runecloth) even keys O_O

    that edit to the lua file worked a treat, all the tooltips display as intended so far
