[1.9] Tooltip Rendering

[Notunknown]

Which event do I need to handle rendering with Tooltips? Its for something a little similar to Thaumcraft's Aspect display above the tooltip.

ItemTooltipEvent? Gives you (last) chance to modify rendering.

That allows me to add to a tooltip (I am using that event) but it does not allow me to render additional information - such as what Thaumcraft does with its aspects.

I found a workaround, in the event that I cannot find a proper method: I used

GuiScreenEvent#DrawScreenEvent

and recreated

GuiUtils#drawHoveringText

, removing all the rendering code (this gets me the X and Y of the tooltip, as well as its size). Its a bit messy, but it works for my purposes.

Okay, I forgot - it's not designed to help (event).

 

You can: (in event)

ScaledResolution scaledresolution = new ScaledResolution(mc.gameSettings, mc.displayWidth, mc.displayHeight);

int x = Mouse.getEventX() / scaledresolution.getScaleFactor();
int y = (mc.displayHeight - Mouse.getEventY()) / scaledresolution.getScaleFactor();

 

Then using that you can render (image i guess, or really anything) using one of Gui.class methods (or other ones).

 

Big note: image will try to render in zLevel = 0, which is not desired since it will just not work (in that event).

At least, that is what I remember from some past problems (maybe changed).

 

In that case you can use: GL11.glTranslate(0.0F, 0.0F, zLevel);
