Version: 1.12

Notice: My game time has expired so there will not be any updates in the near future!

This simple addon will display your currently equipped item(s) when crafting items. It applies to the following crafting modes:

Creation
Improvement
Deconstruction
Research

You can compare to your alternate weapon set by holding down the SHIFT button. Otherwise, comparisons are always against your active equipment.

By default, comparisons will be displayed within the game's PopupTooltip. This tooltip is created by the default UI and can be moved and closed.
If there is more than one item that has to be compared against (e.g. when crafting a 2h-weapon while wearing sword and shield), the second item will be displayed in a custom tooltip so both relevant items are visible.
You may also choose to display comparisons using ComparativeTooltips that are also used by the default UI. These tooltips will only be shown while you hover an equipment item in your inventory and are therefore not available in Creation and Improvement modes.

If you like the idea of this addon, but don't quite like the way it uses those tooltips or would like to have your full equipment viewable while crafting, take a look at NogsSimpleCraftingTooltip

Like this addon? So do I! I also like chocolate and ingame surprise mails (EU @ckaotik), if you feel like sharing

Changes in 1.12:
- Don't show hide animation on PopupTooltip since people reported problems with invisible tooltips afterwards.

Changes in 1.11:
- Updated API version
- Included Zenimax' disclaimer
- Improved tooltip animations and added some spacing here and there
- Combined crafting mode toggle and crafting comparison style settings
- Updated settings panel to use LibAddOnMenu-2.0. You can now find the settings under Settings > AddOn Settings > Stacked

Changes in 1.10:
- Improved tooltip behavior to use animations and feel more ESO-ish
- Enabled alternate weapon set comparison for ComparativeTooltip style
- Added item style to tooltips (can be disabled in the settings panel)
- Fixed ComparativeTooltips left behind when also using InventoryInsight
- Updated API version

Changes in 1.9:
- Fixed comparing to alternate weapon set when your secondary set is equipped. (Before, toggling via SHIFT only had an effect when using the primary weapon set)

Changes in 1.8:
- Added comparing to alternate weapon set. Simply hold down SHIFT on any PopupTooltip style comparison!
- Fixed PopupTooltip showing up when closing the crafting dialog
- Reverted "Equipped" and item style text display in PopupTooltip, since it might collide with owned and/or binding information already present.

Changes in 1.7:
- Added my own tooltip frame - finally! No more jumping tooltips!
- Added item style information to PopupTooltip comparisons.
- Added tooltip frame for deconstruct mode, so PopupTooltip style should now be easier to understand in this mode.

Changes in 1.6:
- Fixed jumping tooltips when switching modes.
- Fixed tooltip showing in research mode when nothing is selected.
- Hopefully fixed lua error.

Changes in 1.5:
- Vastly cleaned up the code
- Fixed incompatibility with MultiCraft
- Added PopupTooltip style for research mode
- You now no longer need to /reloadui when changing tooltip styles
- Tooltip styles may now be set individually for deconstruct/research

Changes in 1.4:
- Fixed: settings frame was missing

Changes in 1.3:
- Fixed: comparison tooltips not showing occasionally if they were shown before crafting
- Fixed: Hide ComparativeTooltip1 (for secondary item comparisons) when hiding crafting PopupTooltip

Changes in 1.2:
- changed saved variables to global namespace
- hide comparison tooltips when closing crafting dialog
- hide secondary comparison when hiding PopupTooltip
- properly display ComparativeTooltip when extracting
- hide PopupTooltip when extracting and using ComparativeTooltip

Changes in 1.1:
- added settings panel labeled "CraftCompare"
- added alternative comparison: Users can now choose between PopupTooltip and ComparativeTooltip
- added comparisons to extraction (both tooltip styles) and research modes (only available when using ComparativeTooltip style)

altanass Forum posts: 0 File comments: 7 Uploads: 0	Nice idea, Is it possible to make it compare with "Gear Sets" rather than what I have currently equipped? I use Wykkyds Outfitter to make gear sets for different weapons but also for crafting (inspiration/deconstruction). When I am deconstructing it would be handy not to deconstruct my main equipment ;x

Well, you can technically only ever compare with one item at a time - sure, I could probably use your current equipment -or- one of your gear sets but what would you gain from that?
Having a quadrillion of comparison tooltips simultaneously won't help anyone figuring out what is going on

Quaraxkad Forum posts: 0 File comments: 6 Uploads: 0	I tried both tooltip style options, and neither of them worked for me on Research. I was going to get some screenshots but the server is currently down for maintenance. I wonder if the issue is something to do with my UI scale and resolution. My resolution is 2560x1600, and I raised the UI scale just a bit to make everything larger. I don't think there's enough room on the right side of the research tooltip to show a comparison. But it looks like in your screenshot of that feature it's already pretty cramped. Is it possible to move the default tooltip to center screen above or below the selected item, that way there's more room for a comparison?

Have you enabled both the "Research" setting as well as selected the "ComparativeTooltip"? It's the only one that works (so far) and yes ...

... it is very crammed. I intend to enable the PopupTooltip for Research comparisons, too, but I haven't yet found a way to access the relevant interface controls (windows).
For now the ComparativeTooltips Research tooltip is more of a bandaid than anything else.

Check the changelog

I added that in version 1.1. You'll need to enable the "Exctraction" setting for it to work. When you select an item do deconstruct, the PopupTooltip will display your current item. If you are using the ComparativeTooltip you will see those when you hover the item itself - either from the list or the slot in the middle of the screen.

One issue I'm noticing though - The comparison window doesn't close when you close the crafting window. Really simple workaround is to just hit escape after closing the craft menu, but it's just irritating enough to bring up. Keep up the good work!

Oops, must have missed that. Will fix that in the next version.

As for missing comparisons when researching even when using ComparativeTooltip + Research enabled: I'll investigate later. First sleep, then work, then maybe I'll find time to actually play the game

OK, I did some more testing and found it's a little more "quirky" than I thought...

All "Compare in modes" options are set to ON, I set the Style to Popup and then /reloadui:
Creation tooltips work, but when dual-wielding and blacksmithing, the second hand tooltip sometimes/often disappears immediately after opening.
Deconstruct and Improvement tooltips don't show at all. And as expected, research doesn't show.

I set the style to Comparative and then /reloadui:
Creation tooltips work but still doesn't always keep the second hand item tip open.
Deconstruct and Research works perfectly, with both hand items always showing.
Improvement tooltips don't show.

Let me know if you need any further debugging.

Zantari Zenithoc Forum posts: 0 File comments: 25 Uploads: 0	With Blacksmithing the second item window seems to appear appropriately for me. Having a sword and shield equipped, it only displays my offhand when I'm on the crafting option for a 2-hander. I haven't tested with main and offhand weapons equipped. Anyway, that was in response to the previous post. The issue I noticed is that when I was in the Blacksmithing window and I had a 2-hander selected and Craft Compare was displaying my main hand sword and my off-hand shield... when I exited the crafting window, the off-hand shield compare tooltip remained on the screen. I had to re-open the crafting interface and bring up a one hander so the off-hand wasn't displayed and then exit in order to get rid of the offhand tooltip.

It probably would have been enough to hover anything that shows a tooltip or click an item link from chat.
Either way, this should be fixed in version 1.2.

Yes, this is due to the way I show those secondary tooltips. I'm currently just reusing the game's ComparisonTooltip which looks nice and everything until you hover something that's not supposed to have such a tooltip (e.g. a skill on your action bar, an item in your item list, anything really) which is when the game automatically hides it.

This is annoying, yes, and I am aware of it. My intention is to create my own tooltips at some point, but until I get around to do that, this is what works at least sometimes

So this is the third time you ask ... Which item destroying do you even mean? Extraction destroys items. Research destroys items.

If it is "normal" item destruction you want, i.e. when you're asked "Do you really want to destroy [item name]?", then no because this is a crafting addon.
