Is it possible to swap the side of the screen that the Incoming and Outgoing scrolling text appears on ie. Incoming that currently displays on the RHS of the screen, to the LHS?
I've looked in the options but couldn't work out if this is possible or not.
If you don't have a program that will let you do multiline search and replace you can still get away with using Notepad. You'll just have to do three search and replaces instead of one.
For example:
Search: "Incoming",
Replace: "NewIncoming",
Thanks - I had wondered about changing the names over like that but wasn't sure where to find everything (I'm noob at editing .lua files). Thank so much for your help.

Unlock the scroll areas and then move them accordingly. Then switch out the LH/RH scroll methods
Or Go into the options and change all the settings to where the right events go to the correct side you want.
You could always run a search and replace for "Outgoing" and "Incoming" on your SavedVariables file for Parrot.
However, make sure you're only changing those in the section that controls which scroll area is used by each event, and not changing them in the section that actually controls the scroll area itself.
Since this is the most recent active thread on Parrot I could find, and my question is options related, I'll post it here:
The 1.8.0 says
The profile now defaults to your Character-profile instead of "Default". Try switching profiles to regain all saved settings.
but, when I try to switch back to the Default profile, the "Copy From" only shows individual character profiles, not the Default or the class profile. Sure, I'm nerdy enough to just edit the .lua file to assign all characters to the Default profile (and maybe rename it, so that new characters can choose it, too) but I wanted to mention it anyway. There's probably a lot of people that just used the Default profile for various chars, for reasons of consistence.
Thanks Orion - I had moved the scrolling text out of the
HUD" area a little but didn't even think to try swapping sides with those options *smacks self on forehead*

"Default" and class-specific profiles are not created by Ace2/3, but defined by the AddOn's author - they're simply prevalent enough that most people think they're automatic.

Remember, make a backup first.
If you don't have a program that will let you do multiline search and replace you can still get away with using Notepad. You'll just have to do three search and replaces instead of one.
For example:
Search: "Incoming",
Replace: "NewIncoming",
