ChatFrame Tab Text font border not working?

I may have missed this in a patch or so ... but since when isn't it possible to change the font flags of the ChatFrame Tab Text?

I know I had it like this in my old UI and it worked, but now it isn't anymore.

Lua Code:
  1. for i = 1, NUM_CHAT_WINDOWS do
  2.     local tabText = _G["ChatFrame"..i.."TabText"]
  3.     tabText:SetFont(NAMEPLATE_FONT, 11, 'OUTLINE')
  4. end

I just ran that code in-game and it worked as expected. It's possible you're running it too early, and the Blizzard UI or another addon is resetting it by the time the login process is finished. Try waiting for PLAYER_LOGIN, and if that doesn't work, just run it again every time ADDON_LOADED fires.

That should work fine, if not, try delaying it until PLAYER_LOGIN
