Version: v10.9, Classic: v10.9

by: Xruptor [More]

This is my personal modifications to the default blizzard chat frames. I really didn't want something as heavy as Prat installed to do a few things I needed. So I hand coded my own chat modifications.

I'm probably not going to make any major updates. However, if you have suggestions I may take it into consideration.

What the mod gives you:

Mousewheel control for scrolling

Move the chat frame to the edges of the screen.

Hold CTRL while using the mousewheel to scroll ridiculously fast.

Hold ALT while using the mousewheel to scroll to the top or bottom of the chat window.

Automatically enables class colors on all chat windows and channels.

Option to hide/show the social chat buttons.

Option to hide/show the chat scroll buttons.

Option to enable/disable channel short names.

Option to move the edit box to the top or bottom.

Option to show or hide the chat tabs. (Will still show when you mouse over the chat frame.)

Enables stick channels for the following channels

Say
Party
Raid
Guild
Officer
Whisper
Channel

Removes the ALT key press requirement to move around in the edit box. You can now move just using the arrow keys.

Saves up to the last 40 lines you have typed in the edit box. You can use the UP and DOWN keys to navigate the history when the edit box is opened.

Removes the annoying Blizzard default alpha borders around the edit box when it's not being used. The borders will still show though when you use it and hide again when you are done.

Removes the guild loot gold messages and replaces them with the original ones.

Option to enable a Copy Chat Button, which will allow you to copy as much text from chat as you like.

Option to enable additional Player coloring in chat and even add Player Levels to their names.

Has built in URL support. Clickable URL links in the chat window.

Note: Timestamps were not included because Blizzard already implemented this feature into the client.
Options -> Interface -> Social -> Chat Timestamps

Slash Commands:

/xanchat social -- toggles the chat social buttons (ON/OFF)
/xanchat scroll -- toggles the chat scroll buttons (ON/OFF)
/xanchat shortnames -- toggles channel short names (ON/OFF)
/xanchat editbox -- toggles the edit box to show (TOP/BOTTOM)
/xanchat tabs -- toggles the chat tabs (ON/OFF)
/xanchat shadow - toggles text shadows for chat fonts (ON/OFF)
/xanchat voice - toggles the Blizzard voice chat buttons (ON/OFF)

You can view Alpha Builds at my Github tracker.

You mean like alt-click a name in chat to invite them?

Thanks.

Change the font size? I thought the default blizzard chatbox has the option for this?

Skylinee A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 5 File comments: 371 Uploads: 0	Please make an option to remove channelnames (replace 2. Trade with just 2) and shorten [Guild]Randomplayer: xxx to g Randomplayer: xxx for example. EDIT: Also the arrow buttons/social/friends icons etc also would be nice to see removed. I appreciate if you want to keep it nice and simple though, but i need these things if i'm to make the switch :P Last edited by Skylinee : 12-25-10 at 09:28 AM.

This would require settings of some sort as not everyone may be interested in these changes. I don't use them myself to be honest. I cannot promise you anything but I'll look into it.

If you're open to one more small suggestion, can you make the editbox default to on top or an option for it? Also something cosmetic, like removing (or fading out completely until mouseover) these buttons: http://img573.imageshack.us/img573/7790/adadsads.jpg

You really should update to 2.1 whenever they decide to freaking approve it. It's been hours now.

I highly doubt I will add an option to remove the chat tabs. How else are you going to be able to switch to the other chat frames? It's not something I would really use to be honest. If you can give me a really good reason I may consider it. Otherwise, I see no point in adding it to the addon.

As for the editbox on the top well... I made this addon eons ago to do that. I will probably add it to xanChat but for the time being you can look at ChatInputTop.

As for the chat tabs, i just want them hidden until i mouse over them. I've used addons in the past that does this, just makes the whole frame look slightly cleaner.
