Enable general tab in tab options and you can edit the chat settings as if you wouldnt have prat installed in the normal chat option menu, unlock chat and have fun.

     It has already been asked, but I can't bring myself to read  178 pages of comments.  Is there a way to resize the chatbox and/or undock it and move it?  Thanks for your patience.

Hey if i click on the name of a player in the chat normally you get him as target and now you whipser him, can i change a setting to the normally?

Why does the fonts that I have set for General doesn't go to Combat Log or Whisper Window? It looks small in comparison to General. I can't find anything to change it in the options. Help me please!

Edit: I found it, but it only goes from 12 to 14. Is there anyway I can set it to 13?

Could you add it so that for german locales (or generally depending on what is easier/better) it looks for "Twink <name>" instead of "<name>'s alt" when looking for alt information in the guild notes?

 I tried fixing it myself but I'm so very horrible with regular expressions :( 

Hi! I am struggling with Prat not saving chat history, even if it has been ticked on to remember. Is this an error or what? Is it possible to fix it? Only reason I got prat was for chat logs, and that does not work :-/

same problem here.

Get elephant addon. Seperate addon with chatlog feature that works (for me).

Hey. after latest patch, my prat cant remember to check for class colours after a loading screen.??

How do you make whisper chat font larger?

Looking under display settnigs - font, I don't see an option to change the font size on whispers.

Hi, how do I click on the item when players links it to the chat, like if someone links gear/weapons or something, I can't see its stats becauce I am just clicking it right trough it, I need help

i quit wow about 8 months ago or so and recently (read: yesterday) started playing again. Of course i had to grab Prat, one of my favorite addons. However, i vividly recall there being an option to change the direction of the chat scroll (i.e. new messages to pop up on the top of the box instead of the bottom.) and i can't figure out where that option is now. Does it still exist?

In the unmodified Blizz UI, you do this by holding down the ALT key and using the right/left arrow keys to move the cursor.

With Prat installed and the Editbox module enabled, you can uncheck the "Use Alt key for cursor movement" box and it will let you simply use the arrow keys while you are typing without holding down the ALT key.

Howdy! I have a question. You know how when you hit enter, then type something, then realize that you made a mistake like 5 words before that, or want to change the words but not delete EVERYTHING to get back to that spot to edit it. What I want to know is, how do I make my arrow keys move the blinking cursor back?

I love this addon, I love that i can customize the way my chat box looks. My only question about this addon is; Does this addon have a module or setting to auto join channels? By that i mean my guild chat has its own chat panel, when I log on can Prat auto join the guild chat for me?

I have trouble with my Prat. When i write a players name in the chat it used to be class colored.

Ex: Hi my name is Tiindra. Then my name wud be in blue for example as im a mage, or pink if i wrote a paladins name.

Now that feature isnt working, Can anyone help me how i do to make it work again!? :D

Right click on the General tab and select Settings.  On the window that pops up you can tick the boxes next to the channels you want the class colors to show.  Trade, etc is under Global Channels

The mouse wheel scrolling feature has stopped working.  No matter what I set it to it scrolls 1 line at a a time.  This started at 4.3.2 and it is a chat thing.  Thought I'd check here first.

Anyone else having issues with wheel scrolling 1 line at a time?
