.lua frame not appearing

[Sythalin]

Used to XML, trying to get the hang of doing it all .lua

function CFM_CreateConfig()
	-- Create config frame
	local f = CreateFrame("Frame", "CFM_Config", UIParent)
	f:SetWidth(100)
	f:SetHeight(100)
	f:SetPoint("Center")
	f:SetBackdrop({
		bgFile = "Interface\DialogFrame\UI-DialogBox-Background",
		edgeFile = "Interface\DialogFrame\UI-DialogBox-Border",
		tile = "true",
		tileSize = 32,
		edgeSize = 32,
		insets = {left = 11, right = 12, top = 12, bottom = 11}
		})
	f:SetBackdropColor(0,0,0,1)
end

Results in no frame, either mod called or /script called.

You need to escape the backslashes in your file paths.

bgFile = "Interface\\DialogFrame\\UI-DialogBox-Background",

Just found that as I was looking through the AddOn builder info. Thx for the reply though!

Now with editboxes:

local e = CreateFrame("EditBox", "CFM_EditBox1", CFM_Config)
e:SetWidth(100)
e:SetHeight(25)
e:SetMaxLetters(20)
e:SetPoint("TOPLEFT")
e:SetBackdrop({
  bgFile="",
  edgeFile="Interface\\Tooltips\\UI-Tooltip-Border",
  tile="true",
  tileSize= 32,
  edgeSize=16,
  insets = {left=5, right=5, top=5, bottom=5}
  })
e:SetText("EditBox Test")

Frame appears, no text inside. When attempting to type something into it, just a small blinker.

e:SetFontObject("GameFontNormalSmall")
