Is there any way to use the bubble text we see in chat window conversations in our own windows to display text? I was hoping that formattedtextfield / formattedtextcontrol could do it (looks like it has a <font> tag). I tried with "chatnpcfont" and "chatgmfont" but got nowhere.

No, the formatted text field does not support custom frames within the field.

Ok. I’ll figure something else out.

Try this...

msg.mode = "chat";

I needed it to appear regardless of message being present or not, so I used a genericcontrol with <frame>chatframe_whisper</frame>.

Thanks, though. I think I can use the msg.mode in another spot....
