Default new issue

So i ran into a new issue with my placement of the health. Works great for shorter pet names, however if i charm a mob with a longer name like polar bears, the name will clip into the hp.

as shown in the attachment.

is there a way to shorten the viewable area of the pet's name? like where the label would cut the name off, to leave room for the HP number on the far right?

It's hard to duplicate this issue cause I'm not in the polar bear pits but I believe you would need to make the box itself bigger. I checked the "EQUI_PetInfoWindow" file and I believe this is the information but make sure you backup the file first. You would want to make the box more horizontal.

<Ui2DAnimation item="PetBlueIconBackground">
<Cycle>true</Cycle>
<Frames>
<Texture>window_pieces06.tga</Texture>
<Location>
<X>208</X>
<Y>200</Y>
</Location>
<Size>
<CX>8</CX>
<CY>8</CY>
</Size>
<Hotspot>
<X>0</X>
<Y>0</Y>
</Hotspot>
<Duration>1000</Duration>
</Frames>
</Ui2DAnimation>
<Ui2DAnimation item="PetRedIconBackground">

It should be far simpler than this, iirc. Just change the size under <Screen item = "PetInfoWindow">

Vii, I suggest moving all the buttons down slightly and placing the HP number in between the gauge and the attack button. Here's what the relevant part of mine looks like.

I just loaded this UI and my cursor is offset. I went back to my old UI and my cursor is still offset. Anyone know how to fix this?

It was at this point I decided to no longer be kind to the casuals as they have extreme short term memory. They did this to themselves, unfortunately.

I don't know if this was ever asked before or ever attempted but is it possible to create a multi-tab UI chat window? I know this has been done for other online games such as EQ2, Eve, Wow and DAOC.

This is just an example but you can see it has 5 tabs across the top which can be redone so you can add tabs to a single window. I don't want to have a whole bunch of windows open on my screen and just want one window with 3 tabs. The first tab for say/tell/ooc/shout, the second tab for guild and the third tab for anything else. Or assign filters to each tab?

I was watching one of Sesserdrix necro guide videos and noticed he was using Duxa but also had his con colors changed. His target window showed the con and it also showed light blue cons which is very helpful. Anyone know what he did to do this?
