    Hello guys.

    I've got a question about a frame I've created in lua.

    this creates a title and subtext for my addon option panel

        me.Title = me:CreateFontString( nil, "ARTWORK", "GameFontNormalLarge" );
    me.Title:SetPoint( "TOPLEFT", 16, -16 );
    me.Title:SetText( L.CONFIG_TITLE );
    local SubText = me:CreateFontString( nil, "ARTWORK", "GameFontHighlightSmall" );
    me.SubText = SubText;
    SubText:SetPoint( "TOPLEFT", me.Title, "BOTTOMLEFT", 0, -8 );
    SubText:SetPoint( "RIGHT", -32, 0 );
    SubText:SetHeight( 32 );
    SubText:SetJustifyH( "LEFT" );
    SubText:SetJustifyV( "TOP" );
    SubText:SetText( L.CONFIG_DESC );

    but i want to translate this into xml

    this is what i've got so far

    The 100% direct translation would be a bit different, but as long as that works for you, it works for me. I tend to suggest learning the XML system first, since it makes things like anchor points pretty clear, but I write code in both constantly. The chapters in the second edition where you work on the BagBuddy addon might be useful for you. Hope that helps!
