"Settings" in the Combat Log tab's menu opens Blizzard's Combat Log page,
rebuilt in Lua with pfUI widgets: the filter list with copy, add and
delete, and the Message Sources, Message Types, Colors, Formatting and
Settings tabs. Combat Log Defaults restores the default filters. Closing
the window refills the log only when the active filter changed.
The log now records while ChatFrame2 is hidden, so switching tabs no
longer loses history.
The default filters are 4.3.4's: Self, Everything, What happened to me?
and Kills. Classic Era's My actions left out auras.
ChatFrame2 now shows the 4.x combat log, ported from Classic Era's
Blizzard_CombatLog as the combatlog module. ClassicAPI's COMBAT_LOG_EVENT,
CombatLogAddFilter and kept entries drive it, and changing filter refills
the frame with BackFillMessage. Quick buttons sit above the log, and its
unit, spell, raid icon and action links open Blizzard's filter menus.
Filters save account-wide in pfUI_combatlog.
The 1.12 CHAT_MSG_COMBAT_* and CHAT_MSG_SPELL_* events no longer reach
ChatFrame2. Its message groups stay saved, so disabling the module brings
the text log back.
env/combatlog_<locale>.lua hold the Classic Era GlobalStrings the log reads
that 1.12 lacks.
