- Description
Any of the parameters after text are optional. ID is used internally by the chat system, in order to provide a way to later customize the color of specific lines in the chat window. By tying each type of chat to a unique ID, the ColorPicker's colorFunc can use UpdateColorByID to dynamically change the color of the lines. There does not appear to be a way to influence the alpha of chat lines, or to change or duplicate the behavior of the ScrollingMessageFrame's fading out ability. --Allara 02:38, 16 May 2005 (EDT)
