Bubbles in 9.0.1

I have a function fired on event CHAT_MSG_MONSTER_SAY - ChatFrame_AddMessageEventFilter("CHAT_MSG_MONSTER_SAY", ChatFilter) :

Code:

local function BB_bubblizeText()

  for i = 1, WorldFrame:GetNumChildren() do

    local child = select(i, WorldFrame:GetChildren());

    if not child:IsForbidden() then

        for j = 1, child:GetNumRegions() do

          region = select(j, child:GetRegions());

          ----more code

        end

    end

  end

  BB_ctrFrame:SetScript("OnUpdate", nil);

end





local function ChatFilter(self, event, arg1, arg2, arg3, _, arg5, ...)

  if (GetCVar("ChatBubbles")) then

      BB_ctrFrame:SetScript("OnUpdate", BB_bubblizeText);

  end

end

Method child:GetNumRegions() return always 0 now.
Is now any other way to review bubblized frames on the screen?

It returns 0 because all the regions have been moved to a nameless subframe now. I was able to discover the regions more or less this way;

Lua Code:

-- Iterate all the bubbles. 
-- This function only returns bubbles we can edit, 
-- so we can bypass all the forbidden stuff, and save time.
for _, bubble in pairs(C_ChatBubbles.GetAllChatBubbles()) do
    -- Iterate the children, as the actual bubble content 
    -- has been placed in a nameless subframe in 9.0.1.
    for i = 1, bubble:GetNumChildren() do
        local child = select(i, select(i, bubble:GetChildren()))
        if (child:GetObjectType() == "Frame") and (child.String) and (child.Center) then
            -- This is hopefully the frame with the content
            for i = 1, child:GetNumRegions() do
                local region = select(i, child:GetRegions())
                if (region:GetObjectType() == "Texture") then
                    local texture = region:GetTexture()
                    -- do something
 
                elseif (region:GetObjectType() == "FontString") then
                    local text = region
                    -- do something
                end
            end
        end
    end
 
end

Yes, yes! This is the solution.
Thank you, Goldpaw.
