hide unnecessary details in item tooltip

AlbertVonMoosseedorf

For every armor and weapon I have a lot of information that I need to collect, sell, and research.
Therefore, the tooltip often disappears behind the top and bottom of the screen. I've removed all
redundancies of various addons. However, there is not enough space for all of the information.
The only unnecessary information is the detail of the enchantment, ownership, and armor-set.



Is there any addon or setting that allows me to either hide this information on armor and weapons
or display this information in a separate box beside the normal tooltip ?

Not as far as I know. Addons can add information, but not remove them.

The problem is, that German text is longer than English text.

I made my tooltips wider for less word-wrap.
You could add the code below to an addon of your choice:

ItemTooltip:SetDimensionConstraints(532, 0, 532, 1440)
PopupTooltip:SetDimensionConstraints(532, 0, 532, 1440)
ComparativeTooltip1:SetDimensionConstraints(600, 0, 600, 8192)
ComparativeTooltip2:SetDimensionConstraints(600, 0, 600, 8192)

ComparativeTooltip1:SetScale(0.875)
ComparativeTooltip2:SetScale(0.875)

Hi
I'm not experienced at modding. How would I add this?

You know there the addon files are located?

1. Choose an addon you use on all characters.
2. Create a backup!
3. Open one of the .lua files.
4. Add the lines from above at the end that file.

oh, so it doesn't matter where. I though it should be in a specific function or something.
Thanks for the swift reply, sorry for the late reply xD
