Empty space between the important bits.

I've have everything just so in my UI but there's one thing that's still annoyingly off. In the attached picture you can see the space or gap between the background texture and the border.


Is there anyway to tighten that up? btw, it's X-Perl.

Thanks for any assistance.

There are different explanations for the gap. I don't know which is the case here.

- the texture in the background file doesn't go all the way to the edges
- the border file is thin and doesn't match the background
- the inset for the border on the frame needs adjusted to fit

The background and border files are Xperls. The only texture I've changed has been health texture (HalM). I just turned off the ugly gradient in the XPerl options but can't for the life of me find or get that gap to go away.

Hmm, maybe it'll fill the space if I turn the gradient on but just choose the same colors.

You're a genius!

Sadly, that didn't work.
I may have to live with it though.

I would try the /framestack command to see what frame is in that gap if any.

there most likely isn't a frame and is the background inset value as seerah stated
