mask	parameter	string	The new mouse masking mode. "full" is the standard mode, and means that creating any Left, Right, or movement-related mouse event will cause the frame to accept and consume any event from any of those types. "limited" causes the frame to accept and consume only events for buttons that have been hooked, so that hooking "LeftDown" will still pass Right mouse events through the frame. Note that hooking any mouse event will still consume MouseMove/In/Out events.

unit	parameter	nil, unit	The new mouseover unit. May be a unit ID or a unit specifier. Pass in nil to disable the mouseover effect.

requireSecureFrameAndInsecureEnvironment: true

Frame:SetParent

Sets the parent of this frame. Circular dependencies result in undefined behavior. If this frame's secure mode is "restricted", then its parent must also have a secure mode of "restricted".

Usage:

Parameter	Type	Datatype	Description
Frame:SetParent(parent)
parent	parameter	Element	The new parent for this frame.

noSecureFrameAndEnvironment: true

Frame:SetPoint

Pins a point on this frame to a location on another frame. This is a rather complex function and you should look at examples to see how to use it.
This function can take many different forms. In general, it looks like this: SetPoint(point_on_this_frame, target_frame, point_on_target_frame [, x_offset, y_offset]).
The first part is the point on this frame that will be attached. Usually, these are string identifiers. "TOPLEFT", "TOPCENTER", "TOPRIGHT", "CENTERLEFT", "CENTER", "CENTERRIGHT", "BOTTOMLEFT", "BOTTOMCENTER", "BOTTOMRIGHT". You may also use a string identifier that refers to a single axis - "TOP", "BOTTOM", "LEFT", "RIGHT", "CENTERX", "CENTERY". If you want more direct numeric control you can use number pairs. 0,0 is equivalent to "TOPLEFT", 1,1 is equivalent to "BOTTOMRIGHT", 0.5,nil is equivalent to "CENTERX".
The second part is the frame to attach to, as well as the point on that frame to attach to. The frame is simply passing in the frame table. The point is the same identifier or number pair as the first parameter.
Optionally, you may include an X or Y offset to the point.
This connection is permanent, and if the target frame moves, this frame will move along with it.
Caveat: If the target is a frame set to the "restricted" SecureMode, and the client is currently in "secure" mode, then unexpected behavior may occur.

Usage:

Parameter	Type	Datatype	Description
Frame:SetPoint(...)
...	parameter	...	This function's parameters are complicated. Read the above summary for details.

noSecureFrameAndEnvironment: true

Frame:SetSecureMode

Sets the frame's secure mode.
"normal" is the standard mode. It allows for most functionality to be used and does not restrict frames in combat. "restricted" allows for certain sensitive functions to be called, but disables a significant amount of functionality in combat. In order to change a frame to "restricted", its parent must already be "restricted". Note that a "restricted" frame can still have "normal" children.
If you are not planning to use any restricted functions, your frame should remain in normal mode.
At the moment, it is not possible to change from "restricted" back to "normal".

Usage:
