 This document describes various important UI elements which are provided by the standard World of Warcraft FrameXML UI.
-== Tooltips ==
+=== MinimapCluster ===
-=== GameTooltip ===
+Frame which represents the minimap area of the user interface.
-This is the game's tooltip, it consists of a number of lines, to determine how many there are, you can call the [[API GameToolTip NumLines|GameTooltip:NumLines()]] function.
+==== Example: Determining if the mouse is over the minimap ====
+ if (MouseIsOver(MinimapCluster)) then
+    -- do something
+ end
-=== GameTooltipTextLeft<i>&lt;num&gt;</i> ===
+[[Category:FrameXML documentation]]
-Each line of text from the game tooltip is represented by one of these objects, replace &lt;num&gt; with the appropriate line number. To obtain the text of a line call the [[API FontString GetText|GameTooltipTextLeft<i>&lt;num&gt;</i>:GetText()]] function.
-<small>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).</small>
