The Minimized Chat...
Chicchai   Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Explanation
Chicchai is a little Addon that will Minimize the Chat after a few seconds.

What can Chicchai do?
  • Minimize the Chat after X seconds
  • Maximize Chat on mouseover
  • Animations
  • Configurable on wich events (Guild, say, yell,...) the chat should maximize
  • Posibility to disable maximizing on combat
  • CombatLog will be maximized when selected (optional)
  • and more...


Other
Click for Previewvideo - lousy quality, but you'll get the idea.
Uses about 6.8 kb

Configuration
The configuration will be done through lua only. Commented, so it will be easy, i think.

You can call some functions if you want to handle maximizing/minimizing by yourself:
  • /script ChatFrame1:Maximize() - Maximize this chat frame
  • /script ChatFrame1:Minimize() - Minimize this chat frame
  • /script ChatFrame1:SetFrozen(true/false) - block maximizing/minimizing

Thanks to
Cargor (EU-Nozdormu)
I asked him if he would help me a bit, because im so a lazy bastard. So he started coding and POOF - Chicchai was like in my dreams, even better :3

Hope ya enjoy,
Lolzen

I will try that, hope it will still works even with Fane active, i don't have your issue as i'm using EavesDrop instead of Blizzard's CL.

Edit: Ah well that's what i was expecting, it works only if i disable Fane :/
Btw the frame, i know it's wierd but it's ChatFrameEditBox, not ChatTab1

No it does not.
The Problem i see, hiding the tabs while minimized, is when i want to click fast on my CombatLog, i first have to hover over the Chat, then click.. it's to stressy for lazy people like me ;P
But feel free to modify the Addon, i think something like ChatTab1:Hide() will help =)

Lightweight replacement for Minichat, interesting, does it also hide tha tabs while minimized ? cuz i'm using a chat KgPanel background so having the tabs visible would look ugly (i also have Fane affecting tabs) any possibility ?
