Does anyone know if and how the new chat changes coming in 3.3.5 will affect this addon?

Is there no way of getting the Editbox functionalities back? I can't stand not being able to use normal word processors' keyboard shortcuts. Like using the arrow keys to actually edit a typo...

You can hold ALT for that

It seems so miniscule that you take it for granted but once it's taken away and you accidentally walk off a cliff because you forgot to hold down alt to scroll back (NOT THAT I DID THAT) it makes you really wonder how people could possibly have the audacity to be hostile towards addon writers that you so frequently see on addon forums.

Having to hold down alt makes me want to pummel Blizzard's interface designer.

What happened to getting rid of the scroll buttons? I had them gone before today, and now can't find any way to get rid of them. They're driving me NUTS!

Please PLEASE fix the editbox.. I also can not stand it constantly visible and anchored to the bottom of the chat window.. Let me know what info you need and I will gladly provide it..

To fix the anchoring issues with the EditBox (Chat input box) please review the ticket I have submitted found here:
http://www.wowace.com/addons/prat-3-0/tickets/241-temporary-solution-to-edit-box/

Hope this helps, and hopefully someone better than I can tweak it out so you can select which chat frame you want in on instead of using float to move it to a different one.

EDIT:

Currently the background has a chance to go on top of the font, causing your text to be hard to read in the edit box. Currently can't figure out why or how to fix it.

It looks like the /tt shortcut for sending tells to your target also appears to be a function that is missing.

Man, how did I even function in this game before Prat?

I used your fix and it worked great, i was finally able to move the edit box to the top. but now whenever i reloadui i get a gap at the bottom of the chat box instead of it being flush with the bottom of the screen, its like it thinks there is an edit box still there.

Will the features disabled by the recent patch be returning? A lot of what I used Prat for no longer functions :(.

The word is that Prat will be worked on this weekend.

Awesome :). Thanks for the heads up.

Just updated to the most recent version of prat and now I can barely see what I'm typing. No idea why but its so dark and faded when typing in the edit box that I can barely tell what I am typing.

temp fix: editbox -> background inset -> set it to around 20. sure, it's transparent (I like that anyway), but it works.

May have missed something but current Prat is for 3.3.5 my client is still 3.3.3 just rolled back to last one for that client fixed it.
I must have missed USA getting patch first again

Any ideas on a fix for the chat box positioning bug? It's a small thing, sure, but I cant get to the chat tabs when I'm in a raid and its slightly annoying.

Thanks for all the work to get it updated after the patch.

that chat box is repositioning itself again after the latest update.
