ChatBar Changes

[sssssssssss]

I thought I had seen it before but can't seem to find it now.....

What are the things to change the default chatbar look ect? Also can it's location be changed?

Along with that, I have a gui window towards the bottom and it lays over the default chat bar. I have the window on layer 4, and have tried ChatBar.layer = 6; or something, but the chatbar stays behind it. Any pointers?

The ChatBar is a GuiTextEditCtrl and you can access it just like one. The object's name is "ChatBar". Example:

PHP Code:

with (ChatBar) {
  useOwnProfile = true;
  profile.fillColor = "0, 0, 0, 255";
} 


And one other:

PHP Code:

function ChatBar.onAction() {
  if (ChatBar.text == "/command") {
    // do command here

    ChatBar.text = "";
  }
} 


As far as the GUI laying over the ChatBar, try calling ChatBar.showTop()

what about it popping under a gui window? I've tried setting the layer like said above, like any other gui, but its a no go.

Use GuiControl.bringtofront() or GuiControl.showtop()

PHP Code:

function ChatBar.onShow() {
  ChatBar.bringToFront();
}
