Not sure this is technically a bug, but I noticed there is no way to unlock the GENERAL chat tab. I can unlock all the other tabs and easily resize them, but I can’t do it to the GENERAL tab. And that’s a problem because I want to increase the size of the font, and if I do that right now the chat will scroll off after one or two sentences.
I think the devs made a mistake and put the EDIT option when right clicking on the GENERAL tab. It used to be the unlock option…
Or maybe I’m overlooking a way to unlock it. Does anybody know?

Font Size is further down under the Display Subheading when you right click the chat tab.
I know that… you are missing what I said.
I want to unlock the entire general tab so I can stretch it out. Right now I can unlock every other chat tab other than the general tab.
There’s no point making the font bigger if the text will scroll of quicker because the general tab is so small.

Ah, missed that part; that’s done in Edit Mode. Click the chat frame and you’ll see a little resize thing in the bottom right corner.

Okay, thank you so much!
It should not have been that complicated. Literally every other chat tab gives you the option to unlock when you right click on the tab without the need to enter EDIT mode.
FYI - If you want to reposition the General chat window entirely, you need an addon like Prat 3.0 or BasicChatMods.
No you don’t. You can move it wherever in Edit Mode.
Hmm…maybe I have a fuzzy memory, I know at launch I could not position the window where I wanted. Maybe it was just that I wanted to push it all the way to the edge of the screen, and it wouldn’t do it because of the left side buttons.
How do i move the whole general tab …their is no unlocking it. I like the old way that we use to have . you can move chat all over your screen if you want? How do we do it
Via Edit Mode, as previously mentioned.
I am trying to do it the old way, unlock general tab and scoot it over … ty anyway for the help
On a faction change from Blackrock and a persoanl guild can i take 200k over to Alliance dalaran
I think this is what I was talking about before, the Chat Frame includes the Left side buttons. I wanted the edge of the normally visible chat window to be flush with the edge of the screen (pushing part of the chat frame offscreen), I had to use another addon like Prat or Moveany, etc. Blizz may have changed that since then, though.
