Widget API: GameTooltip:SetHyperlink
Syntax
SetHyperlink( link );
Parameters
Arguments
- itemString
- string - a string representing an ingame item or enchant. For instance:
- "item:16846:0:0:0" is the link id for the "Giantstalker's Helm".
- "enchant:23804" is the link id for "Enchant Weapon - Mighty Intellect".
Returns
- unknown, probably nil
Remarks
- Calling this function with the same link which is currently shown, will close the Tooltip.
- If you attempt to reference an item that is not in your local cache, i.e. you've never seen it before, the client will query the server for information about that item. If that particular item has not been seen since last server restart, the server will disconnect the client.
- Calling this function with an enchant id that does not exist, will give the error message "Unknown link type".
Example
GameTooltip:SetHyperlink("item:16846:0:0:0");
Result
- this will replace the currently showing tooltip with one containing the information for the Giantstalker Helm
