Anyway to fix the editbox frame strata?

[Gello]

It's a bug with toplevel, which ChatFrame1 has (and ChatFrame1EditBox, but the parent is the culprit with this bug).

<Ui>
  <Button name="StrataParent" toplevel="true" frameStrata="MEDIUM" movable="true" parent="UIParent">
    <Size x="100" y="100"/>
    <Anchors>
      <Anchor point="CENTER"/>
    </Anchors>
    <NormalTexture file="Interface\Icons\WoW_Token01"/>
    <Frames>
      <Button name="StrataChild" frameStrata="HIGH">
        <Size x="80" y="80"/>
        <Anchors>
          <Anchor point="CENTER" relativePoint="RIGHT"/>
        </Anchors>
        <NormalTexture file="Interface\Icons\PetJournalPortrait"/>
      </Button>
    </Frames>
    <Scripts>
      <OnMouseDown>
        self:StartMoving()
      </OnMouseDown>
      <OnMouseUp>
        self:StopMovingOrSizing()
      </OnMouseUp>
    </Scripts>
  </Button>
</Ui>

On live clients the child frame will stay above other toplevel "MEDIUM"-strata frames (like bags) when bags are brought to the front.

On beta client the child frame will drop below other toplevel "MEDIUM"-strata frames when bags are brought to the front, even after a SetFrameStrata to "HIGH" or "DIALOG".

So you should be able to call ChatFrame1:SetToplevel(false) as a temporary fix for this.

It sounds like if you need to raise an "active" frame to the top right now you'll have to handle it yourself.
