chat font size

I would like for my chat font to be set at either 8, 9, or 10. however, when I click to change settings I can't go any lower than 12pt font. Is there any way to modify this outside of the pre-configured settings?

You can use Prat 3.3 or Chatter I would think.

I seem to having an issue with chat font size also. I try to run fonts set to 12 on my screen I can see it better, but after patch 3.3 as soon as I log off it will change back to 9. did not have this issue with 3.2 and the older NUI+.

Hmm, how are you starting up WoW and what operating system are you using and where is your copy of WoW running from ... ( Users\Public, Program Files, Other as installed, Other as copied ).

I just tried this twice. I used Prat to initially set all my chat windows to various oversized fonts ranging between 16 and 24. Silly I know. I then used the chat window font settings to set them all manually to 12. I logged all the way back out to the desktop and ran it again. All fonts as changed are set to 12. Repeated and set to 14 and again the settings remained.

Op Sys : Windows 7 64 Bit
How : Launcher running with Admin Access Rights
Where : Copied to another location

Not using Prat or any chat mod just NUI+ newest update. I use chat window font settings to change font, sometimes it will hold but most of the time it will change back to default 9pt

Okay, lets see if Prat is somehow getting it working.

Combat - 16 --- nUI_Infopanel_CombatLog
Guild Chat - 12 --- nUI_Infopanel_GuildChat
Whispers - 18 --- nUI_Infopanel_Whispers
Chat - 14 --- nUI_Infopanel_Chat
General - 16

/logout

Quit WoW to Desktop

login
General - 16
Chat - 14
Combat - 16
GuildChat - 12
Whispers - 18

Hmm, lucky I guess. I'll keep a watch on this as well when testing stuff and see if I can get it to go wrong and remember what I did

So are you saying to install Prat to try to correct the issue?
