I wrote the Wiki guide on /windowscale, so, I'm a bit familiar with it.
And I just tried to make it work on chat1, and it's not.
/toggle chat1 works just fine, so, it's not an issue of 'chat1' not being the correct name of the window (anymore).
And /windowscale chat works just fine.
So, it must be that chat1-4 no longer work with /windowscale.
I'll bug it in-game. Until then, here is a workaround:
1. Click the blue button to re-dock Chat1 to the Chat window.
2. Issue the command /windowscale chat .7 and that will scale both chat and chat1 to 70% size.
3. Click the blue button to un-dock Chat1 and move it where you want it.
4. Issue the command /windowscale chat 1 to return your main chat window to it's original size (or put in whatever size scale you want).
