  • Hides the up, down and menu chat buttons
  • Chat menu button inside the chat frame, at the upright corner optional module
  • Enables chat scrolling
  • Relocates bottom button to be inside the chat frame, and it only appears when you are scrolling.
  • Shorten and removes channel names (the color should be enough)
  • Makes Yell, Whisper, Party, Raid, Guild and Officer channels sticky optional modules
  • Moves the editbox to the top of the frame optional module
  • Lets you choose between several editbox styles (see the second image)
  • Timestamps optional module
  • Disable Tab Flash optional module
  • Disable Text Fading optional module

Languages
  • English
  • Spanish
  • German (thanks to disiz)
  • French (thanks to oaudry)

  • Significantly improved the code. Didn't tested it yet, but should use a lot less CPU and also a bit less memory
  • Placing the editbox at top of the chart is now an optional module

Version 6.1
  • Update the TOC file, so that WoW and WoWInterface know that it is still working. Nothing changed really.

Any plans to add the ability to move the chat frame to the edges of the screen?

I was just wondering about the relocating of the chat frame. Previously, we were able to move it pretty much exactly to the bottom right hand corner, but now we seem to hit this dead zone about 50pixels away from the edge. Is this something that even mods can no longer fix? Or is it possible within Blizzard's LUA to still do this?

In addition, previously my chat tab names would fade completely away. Now, the fade to a low 5 or 10% opacity, but are still annoyingly there. Is it possible to make them completely transparent until they're actually hovered over? In addition, my No Tab Flash is an active module, but my whispers tab will still light up whenever I send or receive a tell.

Apologies if I'm asking a lot. I realize all of this is due to Blizzard trying to force their shiny new things and RealID down our throat. I appreciate all this addon has done so far and for how great it used to look in my UI! (Before the 3.3.5 changes of course!)
I'm aware of all those changes. I'm trying to solve them as well, but not even the button's position code is working correctly right now, it still has some bugs.

Url and Justify

Ey I really love your addon but something keeps me from using it. Is there any chance that we will see the following modules in the future:

1. Justify on the combat log (means the alignment of the text is on the right and not on the left)

2. URL copy. Really that is such a big miss in a chat addon. Would be so great if you are able to add it. ^^

For everything else. Great addon! keep it up!

Excellent to hear you're still around and planning to look into the changes at some point! I look forward to moving back to LM Chat when Europe catches up to the U.S.
