 Moves the game tooltip to a location based on the "owner" frame.

+:;owner : Frame - Owner frame, which defines the element where the tooltip is centered on. A pointer to the frame is required, not the frame name itself (use _G['MyFrame'] to get the pointer from the frame name).
-:(owner, "Anchor")
+:;anchor : String - a string that describes the anchor point as it would be set via the SetPoint() function.  Anchoring methods as follows:
-:;owner : Frame - Owner frame, which defines the element where the tooltip is centered on
-:;anchor : String - a string that describes the anchor point as it would be set via the SetPoint() function.  Anchoring meathods as follows:
 ::ANCHOR_TOPRIGHT    -------     SetPoint("BOTTOMRIGHT",object,"TOPRIGHT")
 ::ANCHOR_RIGHT      -------   SetPoint("BOTTOMLEFT",object,"TOPRIGHT")

+::ANCHOR_NONE
+You can also move the tooltip by x or y, where positive x is to the right and positive y is up. Thus, negative x is to the left and negative y is down. Doesn't work if anchor is ANCHOR_CURSOR.

+: This will set the owner for tooltip:IsOwned(frame). For instance, first call GameTooltip:SetOwner(UIParent). Then GameTooltip:IsOwned(UIParent) will return 1.
-: This only appears to be a convience method for setting the location of the tooltip, it doesn't seem to actually grant any "ownership" of the tooltip over anything else.
