Tiny Tip

---

What is TinyTip? Well, it started out as just a simple upgrade over AF_Tooltip_Mini and exploded from there. Now it shares no code with what it used to be, becoming something more, while still staying true to its name. The core of TinyTip is basically just an upgrade over AF_Tooltip_Mini, a small file around 24KB. The more modules you allow to load, the more this value increases. The goal of TinyTip is to allow you to mix and match your modules while keeping the smallest memory footprint possible. All files except TinyTip.lua and its locale files are optional. You can take a look below, I’ve listed the optional files as “not required”. If you don’t use a file’s features, you can safely remove it from the TOC. 

Anyway, as you can guess, TinyTip changes the look of your GameTooltip. Here are the features found in core:

• GUI Options, use /tinytip or /ttip to bring up the menu.

Troubleshooting 
TinyTip is preventing another tooltip addon from working.

• Go into that other addon’s TOC file and add/change this line to include TinyTip.

## OptionalDeps: 
I’m getting an error from TinyTip, or an option isn’t working right.

• Maybe your files are corrupt. Delete TinyTip, TinyTipExtras, and TinyTipOptions, then re-download them and install from stratch.

• Your Saved Variable database may have gotten corrupt somehow. Try using /tinytip default and then /tinytip confirm to reset it.

• If resetting your options doesn’t work, exit WoW, delete all your Saved Variable files for TinyTip (global and per character), then restart WoW.

Where’s the secret cow option?

• There is no secret cow option.
