Copy From Chat Problem.

[Aftermathhqt]

Hey guys, since 7.1 my Copy From Chat hasn't worked not really sure what's wrong i've tried a lot of stuff, hope someone can help me

local CopyFrame = CreateFrame("Frame", nil, UIParent)
CopyFrame:SetSize(600, 250)
CopyFrame:SetPoint("CENTER", UIParent, 0, 0)
CopyFrame:SetFrameStrata("DIALOG")
CopyFrame:Hide()
 
CopyFrame:SetBackdrop({
            edgeFile = "Interface\\Buttons\\WHITE8x8", edgeSize = 2,
        })
CopyFrame:SetBackdrop(0.050, 0.050, 0.050, 0.80)
 
local CopyEditBox = CreateFrame("EditBox", nil, CopyFrame)
CopyEditBox:SetSize(600, 250)
 
CopyEditBox:SetMultiLine(true)
CopyEditBox:SetMaxLetters(99999)
CopyEditBox:EnableMouse(true)
CopyEditBox:SetAutoFocus(false)
 
CopyEditBox:SetFont('Fonts\\ARIALN.ttf', 12, "THINOUTLINE")
CopyEditBox:SetShadowOffset(1, -1)
CopyEditBox:SetShadowColor(0,0,0)
 
CopyEditBox:SetScript("OnEscapePressed", function() CopyFrame:Hide() end)
 
--local CopyCloseButton = CreateFrame("Button", nil, CopyFrame, "UIPanelCloseButton")
 
local ScrollArea = CreateFrame("ScrollFrame", "ACopyScrollArea", CopyFrame, "UIPanelScrollFrameTemplate")
ScrollArea:SetPoint("TOPLEFT", CopyFrame, "TOPLEFT", 8, -28)
ScrollArea:SetPoint("BOTTOMRIGHT", CopyFrame, "BOTTOMRIGHT", -28, 8)
ScrollArea:SetScrollChild(CopyEditBox)
 
 
local Lines = {}
 
local function GetLines(...)
    local Count = 1
    for i = select("#", ...), 1, -1 do
        local Region = select(i, ...)
        if (Region:GetObjectType() == "FontString") then
            Lines[Count] = tostring(Region:GetText())
            Count = Count + 1
        end
    end
    return Count - 1
end
 
local function CopyText(self)
    local LineCount = GetLines(self:GetRegions())
    local Text = table.concat(Lines, "\n", 1, LineCount)
    
    if CopyFrame:IsVisible() then return CopyFrame:Hide() end
 
    CopyEditBox:SetText(Text)
    CopyFrame:Show()
end
 
for i = 1, NUM_CHAT_WINDOWS do
    local Frame = _G["ChatFrame"..i]
 
    local Button = CreateFrame("Button", nil, Frame)
    Button:SetSize(16, 16)
    Button:SetPoint("TOPRIGHT", 0, 1.5)
    Button:SetAlpha(0.25)
    
    local ButtonTexture = Button:CreateTexture(nil, "BORDER")
    ButtonTexture:SetSize(22, 22)
    ButtonTexture:SetPoint("CENTER", Button, 0.5, 0)
    ButtonTexture:SetTexture("Interface\\Buttons\\WHITE8x8")
    ButtonTexture:SetVertexColor(0.355, 0.355, 0.355)
 
    Button:SetScript("OnMouseUp", function(self) CopyText(self.ChatFrame) end)
    Button:SetScript("OnEnter", function(self) UIFrameFadeIn(Button, 1, Button:GetAlpha(), 1) end)
    Button:SetScript("OnLeave", function(self) UIFrameFadeIn(Button, 1, Button:GetAlpha(), 0.25) end)
    
    Button.ChatFrame = Frame
end

You need to add

for i = 1, self:GetNumMessages() do
    Text = Text..self:GetMessageInfo(i).."\n"
end

So replace your "CopyText" function with.

local function CopyText(self)
    local LineCount = GetLines(self:GetRegions())
    local Text = table.concat(Lines, "\n", 1, LineCount)
 
    if CopyFrame:IsVisible() then return CopyFrame:Hide() end
 
    for i = 1, self:GetNumMessages() do
        Text = Text..self:GetMessageInfo(i).."\n"
    end
 
    CopyEditBox:SetText(Text)
    CopyFrame:Show()
end

Works perfectly, thank you!
