my personal solution for this is using a bag addon that can highlight new items (i use AdiBags) because most quest rewards are not upgrades but rather i just pick the one that vendors for the highest price.

But as far as implementing this i would add a checkbox to each itemframe(which is equip-able) then when the user checks it off it will get equipped after you complete the quest

You would need to the following things:

• modify each itemframe and add a checkbox
• show/hide checkboxes on each itemframe when the quest dialog updates/shows
• prehook the Complete Quest button so that you can record the itemids/strings of each checked of item
• wait for your bags to update and make sure the item is in your bag
• equip the item this entails the following:
• PickupContainerItem(container, slot) -- pickup the item from your bag
• AutoEquipCursorItem() -- drops the item into the first available slot

you will want to add some sort of function that checks that you are not in combat and delays any non weapons to be equipped when you exit combat

there is no secure code to worry about as far as i know (my ldb equipment manager allows me to switch equipment during combat( it switches weapons right away and then waits till out of combat to switch the rest) this however uses the equipment manager sets but i don't see what would stop you from doing in per item

wipe is the fastest method we have right now?

what are you using tables for that need resizing that is time sensitive?

i have seen borders not render completely in wotlk as well seams to be a layout engine issue that blizzard would have to fix

look in the repo of libperiotictable o gathermate2_data

all database addons/libs that i know of rely on wowhead to get their info (if its not easily available via the client at run time). most of these maintain their databases via a "miner" (script that can be run that will go to wowhead and parse/mine all the relevant info and spits out a lua file ready for use)

be aware of the fact that wowheads database is not always complete or 100% correct. for example it currently does not have any mining nodes for the new hyjal zone (thats why gathermate2_data is missing them as well)

Uh...what the hell version of SBF are you using (and what kind of client/server?!?) - the latest SBF says:

probably this one http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/info12524-SBF3.2Beta.html

just do it like my example have a separate function for your base frame but for all its children use the function i showed you it adjusts itself to whichever button calls it (self will always be the button calling it)

adding onenter/leave handlers is really your only option atm

however if you plan on adding more buttons that you should just make one onleave functions for them like this

     F:SetScript("OnLeave", function()
          if not B:IsMouseOver() then
               Tooltip:Hide();
          end
     end

     local function ButtonOnLeave(self)
          if not self:GetParent():IsMouseOver() then
               Tooltip:Hide();
          end
     end

     B1:SetScript("OnLeave", ButtonOnLeave)
     B2:SetScript("OnLeave", ButtonOnLeave)
     B3:SetScript("OnLeave", ButtonOnLeave)

this reduces your memory footprint and makes it easier for you to change code since you are only dealing with one function instead of several that are exactly the same

may wanna try something with http://www.wowace.com/addons/ace3/pages/api/ace-config-dialog-3-0/#w-ace-config-dialog-select-group-app-name

(i have never used it myself so i wouldn't be able to help with that)

there is no way to change the behavior of how aceconfig dialog works.

as far as InterfaceOptionsFrame_OpenToCategory goes thats just a standard blizzard api call to open to your config page it has no control over anything you do with aceconfigdialog

well something must be messing with his options window because the default options window does not have a 100% transparent background

i would just respond with "Its another addon, as such not my problem. Have a nice day"

AceConfigDialog was never designed to give the author precise control over placement. it is dynamic in nature and as such if you resize the widow the widgets will reflow. if it matters that they should always be in a precise location than you will need to create your own options from scratch

or you have to write your optiontable so that it is not confusing no matter how the user looks at it

the addon also does not yet have a beta or release version yet so functionality is probably questionable atm

i use the the checkbox subgroup combination in GoblinVendorFilter to toggle all of the subgroup filters on/off works very well for this and keeps it as the "same" function of course you do not want it doing something totally different
