Item Linka!

An awesome item linker, better than the rest!

What?

You need LibSlash to use this mod.

Why?

Sometimes it is difficult to click on linked items or abilities in chat. This mod places small, easy to use buttons to hover over just like a real item. They fade away with time until they ultimately disappear completely.

How?

• SHIFT + LEFT CLICK an Item Linka button to link it. If someone links you something in a /tell or otherwise you can link it through Item Linka anywhere you like.
• HOVER over a button to get tooltip information and halt it from automatically disappearing.
• RIGHT CLICK on a button to make it disappear.

Why?

You might be wondering why I would work on an item linker when Mythic said they are going to release one very soon. I couldn't wait, and I enjoy throwing myself into problems and solving them. So, solved it I did!

How?

• CTRL + LEFT CLICK an item to link it to the last used chat channel.
• HOVER over a button to get tooltip information and halt it from automatically disappearing.
• RIGHT CLICK on a button to make it disappear.

The mod will detect linked items in chat and create a button above the chat window for you to hover over.

If you created a mod that uses itemData tooltips and would like to have ItemLinka handle linking for you, add your window's name to ItemLinka.handleWindows with the following command:

table.insert(ItemLinka.handleWindows, "MyModWindowName")

and that's IT!
