Hovertips on Profession UI

[Mikari]

On the PTR when you mouseover recipes in your profession UI you get a hovertip, I believe this is being caused by the Blizzard Feedback UI, any ideas how it's doing it, wouldn't mind being able to have this feature on live.

wowcompares.com has all of Blizzard's UI code for every build available.

wowcompares is actually the first place I looked before making this topic, it doesn't have the feedbackUI though.

Disable the feedbackUI like everybody else does then check if the hovertips are still there.

Whilst it used to show up in earlier WoW patches I don't think the FeedbackUI shows up under the addons page in the 3.1 PTR.

I believe you are correct but maybe you can "fake it" with

/script DisableAddOn("Blizzard_FeedbackUI")
/console reloadui

Check with IsAddOnLoaded("Blizzard_FeedbackUI") after the reload to see that it's truly disabled.

Since AddonKit does not extract the feedbackUI code,
attaching the latest 3.1 build feedbackUI source for the curious.

This is the TradeskillUI relevant code btw:

function FeedbackUI_TradeSkillFrameSetup ()
    local skillFrame, reagentFrame, script;
    
    TradeSkillListScrollFrame:HookScript("OnVerticalScroll",
        function(self, offset)
            if ( GameTooltip:IsVisible() ) then
                if ( string.match(GameTooltip:GetOwner():GetName(), "^TradeSkillSkill") ) then
                    FeedbackUI_TradeSkillFrame_Update(GameTooltip:GetOwner());
                end
            end
        end);
        
    for i = 1, 8 do 
        skillFrame = getglobal("TradeSkillSkill" .. i);
        reagentFrame = getglobal("TradeSkillReagent" ..i);
        
        --[[ Grab OnClick events ]]
        skillFrame:HookScript("OnEnter", 
            function(self)
                FeedbackUI_TradeSkillFrame_Update(self);
            end);
            
        skillFrame:HookScript("OnLeave",
            function(self)
                GameTooltip:Hide();
            end);
        
        skillFrame:RegisterForClicks("LeftButtonUp", "RightButtonUp");
        reagentFrame:RegisterForClicks("LeftButtonUp", "RightButtonUp");
        skillFrame:HookScript("OnClick",
            function(...)
                FeedbackUI_TradeSkillListClick(self, ...);
            end);
        reagentFrame:HookScript("OnClick",
            function(...)
                FeedbackUI_TradeSkillListClick(self, ...);
            end);
    end
    
    TradeSkillSkillIcon:RegisterForClicks("LeftButtonUp", "RightButtonUp");
end

function FeedbackUI_TradeSkillFrame_Update(self)
    if ( GetTradeSkillItemLink(self:GetID()) or GetTradeSkillRecipeLink(self:GetID()) ) then
        GameTooltip:SetOwner(self, "ANCHOR_BOTTOMRIGHT", 0, self:GetHeight());
        GameTooltip:SetTradeSkillItem(self:GetID());
    end    
end

Here's a small addon to do just that with the default UI.

Thank you, I always wanted this feature since I noticed it in beta, I always thought it was a feature they were adding in 3.0, but it just ended up being a feature of the FeedbackUI.
