Edgefile Insets?

[Miiru]

I'm trying to add a border to my Chatframe, using this snippet of code:

local chatborder = CreateFrame("Frame",nil,UIParent) 

function chatborder:onEvent() 
	local border=CreateFrame("Frame",nil,UIParent)
  border:SetAllPoints(ChatFrame1)
  border:SetParent(ChatFrame1)
	border:SetBackdrop({
	edgeFile = "Interface\\Tooltips\\bagnon", --insert your file path texture or rename texture   
	edgeSize = 16,
	tile = true, tileSize = 16})
	border:SetFrameStrata("BACKGROUND")		
	
	local Chatframe = ChatFrame1
          if ChatFrame1 then border:SetParent(ChatFrame1) else border:Hide() end  
end
		 
function chatborder:new() 
self:SetScript("OnEvent", self.onEvent) 
self:RegisterEvent("PLAYER_LOGIN")	
end 
	 
chatborder:new()

Everything works great so far, but the border insets are looking weird and overlapping the chattext, so i would like to move the out of the middle a bit by maybe 4 or 5 pixels. Is it even possible to have something like edgefile insets?

Try, change 0 too prefered inset.

insets = {
left = 0,
right = 0,
top = 0,
bottom = 0
}
})

I was under the impression that those insets only work for the background texture?

Instead of using :SetAllPoints() use 2 :SetPoint() calls with your desired offsets.
