Overview

This document describes various important UI elements which are provided by the standard World of Warcraft FrameXML UI.

Tooltips

GameTooltip

This is the game's tooltip, it consists of a number of lines, to determine how many there are, you can call the GameTooltip:NumLines() function.

GameTooltipTextLeft<num>

Each line of text from the game tooltip is represented by one of these objects, replace <num> with the appropriate line number. To obtain the text of a line call the GameTooltipTextLeft<i><num></i>:GetText() function.

Not sure if there is a way to dynamically form a function name in lua based on a variable (which would allow easily looping through all tooltip lines).
