no.

Although if u use WE unlimted then u can find the raw values and do it by the number in the object editor, but it is much slower, just type in the values.

if its triggered do manual. if its just a change of a blizzard one leave the values and change the rest. if u want to see the raws, its something like,
view>raw data

I would do it manually. Saves time and energy. However, updating can be a pain. Oh well.

And for the record: To make line breaks (to simulate skipping to the next line, as if you pressed 'enter' or 'return'), you can press Ctrl+Enter and the tooltip automatically adds a visible linebreak. The alternative is putting |n at the end, but it's harder to see.

Hope I helped. You'll need linebreaks to make tooltips like AotZ and DoE.

I create my tooltips in Notepad, it's much easier to use than the super-small window the OE has

I think hes got it covered Malf.

Someone feel like making a program so you can preview tooltips?

You cannot be sure with him though. He's the same guy who made this thread, although he was very persistent, still quite stupid. Sorry for the term.

Copy ToB. When I get home tonight I'll post up the actual format used for that style tooltip.
