📋 About This Mod
# ColorTooltips ColorTooltips is a mod that provides custom tooltip styling. It features two main characteristics: highly customizable and buttery smooth. # Integration This mod no longer requires RarityCore to be installed since version 2.0. If RarityCore is installed alongside, you can select styles based on an item's RarityCore rarity. Of course, without RarityCore, you can still select styles based on an item's vanilla rarity. # Buttery Smooth ColorTooltips' animations never cut corners — every single effect can be toggled and adjusted independently: - **Fade In/Out** — Tooltips appear smoothly and disappear gracefully. Delay and duration are both adjustable. You can also disable it for instant popping. - **Position Easing** — Non-linear transitions when following the mouse. When jumping from the right side to the left, it slides over naturally. Speed multiplier is up to you. - **Size Transition** — Smooth scaling when the tooltip size changes, with no abrupt jumps. - **Color Flow** — Colors along the border and title bar flow continuously. Speed, direction, and enabling/disabling are all up to you. - **Item Model Animation** — Icons scale from a starting size to normal size. Enter and switch animations have independent starting scale values. - **Switch Glow** — When hovering over a different item, a customizable colored light streak travels along the border. Glow color and length are configurable. ## Preview | 1 | 2 | 3 | |------|------|--------| |!(https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/gZkMEKjl/images/634a1d524701cfa5d4ec1fca801fb9e7556cc598.gif)|!(https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/gZkMEKjl/images/23e43e797b28f28bfe98cfc32cded3b0aba2d168.gif)|!(https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/gZkMEKjl/images/7544e3cd844516fb43efdc3300d6c966cdc2ce88.gif) | 1 | 2 | |------|------| |!(https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/gZkMEKjl/images/af382016a5efbd067785af5f484e3424ec621fe0.gif)|!(https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/gZkMEKjl/images/3a7eb1863e7c5d957b930d02677dc1935cd13be9.gif) # Highly Configurable Everything is configurable, down to every component, every color, and every animation: - **Freedom of Color** — Use rarity theme colors, any hex color of your choice, or fine-tune with brightness and saturation adjustments. - **Zone-Based Control** — Borders, backgrounds, and title bars are configured independently without interfering with each other.
