Code for button to toggle
Code:
 OnClick = function(self, button)
		if button == "LeftButton" then
			if LP_Box:IsShown() then
				LP_Box:Hide()
				ChatFrame:Show()
			else
				LP_Box:Show()
				ChatFrame:Hide()
			end
		end
	end,
You should be able to just parent your cover box to the chat frame. Make it easy should you ever resize or move chatframe you wont have to resize the box.
Setting the alpha to 0 makes it completely transparent. The chat behind it will still show, right?
