Hello, I made this frames to be a tooltip using the Reforged UI Designer, but I wanna make it dynamic sized (by using the trick of setting the width or height to 0), but for that I have to clear the points or don't setting 2 points and then manually set the size and everything I tried didn't worked correctly, maybe because I'm making the wrong calculations.
Here are created:
Lua: 
for i = 0, 5 do
    DigimonT[i] = BlzCreateFrame("ScriptDialogButton", StockedDigimonsMenu, 0, 0)
    BlzFrameSetPoint(DigimonT[i], FRAMEPOINT_TOPLEFT, StockedDigimonsMenu, FRAMEPOINT_TOPLEFT, x1[i], y1[i])
    BlzFrameSetPoint(DigimonT[i], FRAMEPOINT_BOTTOMRIGHT, StockedDigimonsMenu, FRAMEPOINT_BOTTOMRIGHT, x2[i], y2[i])
    BackdropDigimonT[i] = BlzCreateFrameByType("BACKDROP", "BackdropDigimonT[" .. i .. "]", DigimonT[i], "", 1)
    BlzFrameSetAllPoints(BackdropDigimonT[i], DigimonT[i])
    BlzFrameSetTexture(BackdropDigimonT[i], "ReplaceableTextures\\CommandButtons\\BTNCancel.blp", 0, true)
    BlzFrameSetLevel(BackdropDigimonT[i], 1)
    t = CreateTrigger()
    BlzTriggerRegisterFrameEvent(t, DigimonT[i], FRAMEEVENT_CONTROL_CLICK)
    TriggerAddAction(t, function () PressedActions(i) end) -- :D

    DigimonTUsed[i] = BlzCreateFrameByType("BACKDROP", "Used", DigimonT[i], "", 1)
    BlzFrameSetPoint(DigimonTUsed[i], FRAMEPOINT_TOPLEFT, DigimonT[i], FRAMEPOINT_TOPLEFT, 0.0000, 0.0000)

    DigimonTSelected[i] = BlzCreateFrameByType("BACKDROP", "Selected", DigimonT[i], "", 1)
    BlzFrameSetPoint(DigimonTSelected[i], FRAMEPOINT_TOPLEFT, DigimonT[i], FRAMEPOINT_TOPLEFT, 0.0000, 0.0000)
    BlzFrameSetPoint(DigimonTSelected[i], FRAMEPOINT_BOTTOMRIGHT, DigimonT[i], FRAMEPOINT_BOTTOMRIGHT, 0.0000, 0.0000)
    BlzFrameSetTexture(DigimonTSelected[i], "UI\\Widgets\\EscMenu\\Human\\checkbox-background.blp", 0, true)
    BlzFrameSetLevel(DigimonTSelected[i], 3)
    BlzFrameSetVisible(DigimonTSelected[i], false)

    DigimonTCooldownT[i] = BlzCreateFrameByType("TEXT", "name", DigimonT[i], "", 0)
    BlzFrameSetPoint(DigimonTCooldownT[i], FRAMEPOINT_TOPLEFT, DigimonT[i], FRAMEPOINT_TOPLEFT, 0.0000, 0.0000)
    BlzFrameSetPoint(DigimonTCooldownT[i], FRAMEPOINT_BOTTOMRIGHT, DigimonT[i], FRAMEPOINT_BOTTOMRIGHT, 0.0000, 0.0000)
    BlzFrameSetText(DigimonTCooldownT[i], "60")

    BlzFrameSetLevel(DigimonTCooldownT[i], 4)
    BlzFrameSetVisible(DigimonTCooldownT[i], false)

    DigimonTTooltip[i] = BlzCreateFrame("QuestButtonDisabledBackdropTemplate", DigimonT[i],0,0)
    BlzFrameSetPoint(DigimonTTooltip[i], FRAMEPOINT_TOPLEFT, DigimonT[i], FRAMEPOINT_TOPLEFT, 0.022437, 0.088828)
    BlzFrameSetPoint(DigimonTTooltip[i], FRAMEPOINT_BOTTOMRIGHT, DigimonT[i], FRAMEPOINT_BOTTOMRIGHT, 0.12277, 0.018440)
    BlzFrameSetTooltip(DigimonT[i], DigimonTTooltip[i])

    DigimonTTooltipTitle[i] = BlzCreateFrameByType("TEXT", "name", DigimonTTooltip[i], "", 0)
    BlzFrameSetPoint(DigimonTTooltipTitle[i], FRAMEPOINT_TOPLEFT, DigimonTTooltip[i], FRAMEPOINT_TOPLEFT, 0.0075630, -0.012400)
    BlzFrameSetPoint(DigimonTTooltipTitle[i], FRAMEPOINT_BOTTOMRIGHT, DigimonTTooltip[i], FRAMEPOINT_BOTTOMRIGHT, -0.012437, 0.077600)
    BlzFrameSetText(DigimonTTooltipTitle[i], "|cffFFCC00Title|r")
    BlzFrameSetEnable(DigimonTTooltipTitle[i], false)
    BlzFrameSetScale(DigimonTTooltipTitle[i], 1.14)
    BlzFrameSetTextAlignment(DigimonTTooltipTitle[i], TEXT_JUSTIFY_CENTER, TEXT_JUSTIFY_LEFT)

    DigimonTTooltipDescription[i] = BlzCreateFrameByType("TEXT", "name", DigimonTTooltip[i], "", 0)
    BlzFrameSetPoint(DigimonTTooltipDescription[i], FRAMEPOINT_TOPLEFT, DigimonTTooltip[i], FRAMEPOINT_TOPLEFT, 0.0075630, -0.027400)
    BlzFrameSetPoint(DigimonTTooltipDescription[i], FRAMEPOINT_BOTTOMRIGHT, DigimonTTooltip[i], FRAMEPOINT_BOTTOMRIGHT, -0.012437, 0.032600)
    BlzFrameSetText(DigimonTTooltipDescription[i], "|cffFFCC00Description|r")
    BlzFrameSetEnable(DigimonTTooltipDescription[i], false)
    BlzFrameSetScale(DigimonTTooltipDescription[i], 1.14)
    BlzFrameSetTextAlignment(DigimonTTooltipDescription[i], TEXT_JUSTIFY_TOP, TEXT_JUSTIFY_LEFT)

    DigimonTTooltipStatus[i] = BlzCreateFrameByType("TEXT", "name", DigimonTTooltip[i], "", 0)
    BlzFrameSetPoint(DigimonTTooltipStatus[i], FRAMEPOINT_TOPLEFT, DigimonTTooltip[i], FRAMEPOINT_TOPLEFT, 0.0075630, -0.077400)
    BlzFrameSetPoint(DigimonTTooltipStatus[i], FRAMEPOINT_BOTTOMRIGHT, DigimonTTooltip[i], FRAMEPOINT_BOTTOMRIGHT, -0.012437, 0.012600)
    BlzFrameSetText(DigimonTTooltipStatus[i], "|cffFFCC00Status|r")
    BlzFrameSetEnable(DigimonTTooltipStatus[i], false)
    BlzFrameSetScale(DigimonTTooltipStatus[i], 1.14)
    BlzFrameSetTextAlignment(DigimonTTooltipStatus[i], TEXT_JUSTIFY_CENTER, TEXT_JUSTIFY_LEFT)
end
And here are edited:
Lua: 
-- This is in a "if GetLocalPlayer() == player then" block
for i = 0, MAX_STOCK - 1 do
    local d = bank.stocked[i] ---@type Digimon
    if d then
        -- Button
        BlzFrameSetEnable(DigimonT[i], true)
        BlzFrameSetTexture(BackdropDigimonT[i], BlzGetAbilityIcon(d:getTypeId()), 0, true)
        -- Tooltip
        BlzFrameSetText(DigimonTTooltipTitle[i], GetUnitName(d.root))
        BlzFrameSetText(DigimonTTooltipDescription[i], BlzGetAbilityExtendedTooltip(d:getTypeId(), 0))
        if bank.inUse[i] then
            BlzFrameSetText(DigimonTTooltipStatus[i], "|cff0000ffIn use|r")
            BlzFrameSetVisible(DigimonTUsed[i], true)
            BlzFrameSetAlpha(DigimonTUsed[i], 127)
        else
            BlzFrameSetText(DigimonTTooltipStatus[i], "|cff00ff00Stored|r")
            BlzFrameSetVisible(DigimonTUsed[i], false)
        end
    else
        -- Button
        BlzFrameSetEnable(DigimonT[i], false)
        BlzFrameSetTexture(BackdropDigimonT[i], "ReplaceableTextures\\CommandButtons\\BTNCancel.blp", 0, true)
        -- Tooltip
        BlzFrameSetText(DigimonTTooltipTitle[i], "Empty slot")
        BlzFrameSetText(DigimonTTooltipDescription[i], "")
        BlzFrameSetText(DigimonTTooltipStatus[i], "")
    end
end
This is how looks in game:

For dynamic sizing, set the width, height, or both dimensions of the TEXT frame to zero. Don't set any points for the TEXT frame. Then wrap the BACKDROP frame around the TEXT frame via setting its points. The BACKDROP frame should then dynamically resize in accordance to the dimensions of the TEXT frame, which dynamically resizes to the text content.

Click to expand...
If the points of the backdrop will depend of the text, how can I set its position if you are telling me that don't set any points for the TEXT frame?
