Status: Currently Working On
Can you make an option to set your chat notifications to a specific window? Or atleast go to just the main first window. INS Junkyard was able to do it that way but that addon's junk options are not as robust.

Would really help cut down on chat spam. Thank you.

Willan,

That is actually on my list of things I would like to do with all of my addons. I'll try to bump it up to higher priority.

Willan,

Just FYI, I'm working on this. But I'm also doing a significant rewrite to the addon so I'm going to be at least a few days of testing it myself before I unleash it on the public. By the end I should have the infrastructure needed to allow all of my chat notifications on all of my addons go to whatever chat window desired.

Just wanted you to know I hadn't forgotten about you and will be giving you this feature at some point hopefully soon.

Willan,

Okey dokey. I have added your feature. It isn't as polished as I'd like it to be but it is certainly usable.

In the settings there is a text box and you type your tab name in there. I had wanted to make this a dropdown but the chat system is a wee bit more complicated than it I was expecting and I wanted to get this pushed out. I can always make it 'moar better' later.

Anyway, I haven't tested special characters or spaces so you can try it but if it doesn't work, try something simple. I did most of my testing by making a tab called 'Zolan'. If by chance the code fails to find your tab, it will default to using whatever current tab you are on like the default behavior is.

The text box is case sensitive and whatnot.

Let me know back here if you have any problems.

Thanks for flying Zolan airlines.
