Fane is a small add-on to make the chat tabs look slightly more appealing. The tabs will always be shown on ChatFrame1 (that's the one where you can have more than one tab).
There are zero configurations for this add-on.

It highlights it red, and that's what it has always done.

wine segfaulted when I updated my WoW yesterday, so the following isn't tested, but it should work. I will review Fane's code before pushing an update however.

With the 3.0.2 patch Fane broke. I made the following changes to get things working again:
Code:
local OnEnter = function(self)
local f, s = inherit:GetFont()
_G["ChatFrame"..self:GetID().."TabText"]:SetTextColor(.64, .207, .933)
_G["ChatFrame"..self:GetID().."TabText"]:SetFont(f, s, "OUTLINE")
end
local OnLeave = function(self)
if(_G["ChatFrame"..self:GetID()] == SELECTED_CHAT_FRAME) then
_G["ChatFrame"..self:GetID().."TabText"]:SetTextColor(.64, .207, .933)
else
_G["ChatFrame"..self:GetID().."TabText"]:SetTextColor(1, 1, 1)
end
local f, s = inherit:GetFont()
_G["ChatFrame"..self:GetID().."TabText"]:SetFont(f, s)
end
local OnShow = function(self)
local f, s = inherit:GetFont()

end

This is still not ideal. With these changes you can't get to the menu of the chat frames, so do all your chatframe customizations before enabling the addon.

Any idea how to fix this? ... it only affects Chat Frame, Combat Log is functioning properly
Sending me a PM would have been the most logical choice .
However, unlock the chatframe, move it, reload ui, it should be fixed . It also might be that your chatframe is being moved by the UI because it's "outside" the screen. Take a look at IHasNoScope and tear out the FCF hook that's there. The comment it has should be obvious enough I believe.

My question is, can I modify the .lua file so that the chat tabs appear on the bottom of the chat window? I've been teaching myself .lua as I go along, and managed to change my font and font colors myself, but for this I'm stumped.
Thanks.
This is very far outside the scope of Fane. Anyhow... The common way to solve issues like this is to block the blizzard code from execution what it should, or trick it into doing something else. A block you can do by hooking the functions that handle the arranging of the tabs, and just have it execute your function instead. This is most likely the easiest way to solve it.
You could also place a function on the chattab to act as a proxy to the setpoint function, as the chat tabs (like all other widget elements) have a metatable lookup on their respective widget table.
Now, this really isn't my (or fane's issue) at all. I recommend that you make a post on any of the coding related forums.
