Default Default chatfont

I want new windows ( tell windows) to have /chatfont 5 as default and I changed Chatfont=5 in .ini but its still at 3 for some reason. Have I missed a setting somewhere?

Thanks

The command (and ini line) you mean is chatfontsize.

Yes I know this, /chatfont works just as fine ingame. In the .ini file the line is like you say, but my problem still remains - editting this line does not make the font bigger or smaller when creating a ne window.

You might have to edit the ChatWindow UI file for this. It doesn't work any other way. I'm guessing because Tell Windows are so temporary. There are threads about this on the Live forums as late as 2012.

First, backup the UI_ChatWindow.xml file (located in the uifiles folder).

Then open UI_ChatWindow.xml in Notepad.

In the <Editbox item="CW_ChatInput"> AND <STMLbox item="CW_ChatOutput"> sections of code, add the following line:

<font>5</font>

Cheers, just what I was looking for!

While im at it, do you know if it possible to make the arena where you type in text in the chatwindow bigger? /chatfont doesnt increase the typed letter.
