I still cannot hold Shift and Scroll down, to the present text, i have to keep scrolling on and on,
Also i cannot see the typing bar when i have the whisper tab up,
My mistake Kagaro, it was a bug with having the blizzard option of mousewheel scrolling checked.
Once I unchecked the Blizzard option, it works as intended now.
Hi, i have only a problem, when i press Enter and write something, if I want to correct the previous text that I wrote, I have to go back with the arrow key, I can not select with the mouse pointer.
ill look, but the scrolliing funtions didnt change

One thing I am missing since all these updates is the ability to hold "Shift" and mousewheel scroll would automatically bring you to the bottom of your chat, or to the top.
This had to be chatter enabling that feature, because I used it all the time in 3.3.3 and it worked perfectly, now it just feels awkward not being able to shift and mousewheel down to get to the bottom of chat windows.
If I remember well in previous versions of this awesome addon there was a functionality where you could shift+scroll and go to the top or bottom of your chat.
this doesnt exist anymore.
Any chance you can bring it back?
TIA

I only have 1 problem, and I really hope someone can help - I have the chatter located in the left hand corner, and it cant be any further to the left or down in my UI which causes the pop up toast window when some of my ID friends go offline or online to be located so far to the left that half of the toast window is outside my screen ;(
- Looking for some kind og help so I can move the toast window so I can see it all, plz help :)
Blizzard's function returns a single value which is the frame object. By not returning the same value from your function, other addons that also hook the FCF_OpenTemporaryWindow may not work properly and/or generate Lua error messages.
