Thank you, very much. This worked very nicely. I did have to wait abit for the "art" folder to be created and populated. Actually, Windows reported World of Warcraft as "not responding" during the art export. A little patience, and the process completed.
So, I read through the BattlePetUI files and was unable to find a reference to the frame I am interested in. It shows up after the battle, saying "You Won!" if you won, and reporting additional loot you may be receiving. The frame has a faded line above, and one below, the text of the message with no right and left borders. The text fades and the frame hides. I can implement the fading text by varing the alpha. But am wanting to duplicate the lines and text sizes, perhaps colors.
I am currently using a macro, /script print(GetMouseFocus():GetName()), to identify frames to help with finding them in code. However, by the time the battle is over and the text is displayed on the screen, all the macro reports is "WorldFrame". And, of course, it then fades completely away. Interestingly enough it appears that sometimes clicking on the text causes it to pause, remaining on the screen longer - Perhaps it resets the alpha timer.
Even more strange, today I am seeing the text appear, fade out, then the lines appear for a bit, they they too, go away!
