Infobar/Exp Bar Scaling and Size

Zemallo · 06-02-17, 06:09 AM

Alright so, First off this UI is great.
Secondly I have had to do ALOT of tweaking because I play on a 60" 4k Television and sit around 10 feet from it. So my UI needs to be alittle larger than normal. I have been able to fix all of my settings with the exception of the infobar on the bottom of my screen. I would love to make this taller so I can have larger fonts. It is so agonizingly small that I needed to enable BT's Micromenu and set it into the top left next to the minimap, that pull up menue in the bottom left is just too small! I have searched around the config for a while now and I simply just cant find the specific controls for the Infobar/Exp Bar sizing. Does anyone know how I can do this without changing the scale of everything else and having to go through and redo all of my tweaks?

Here is a screenshot of what im working with right now:

Apparently exiting the game and reloading made the scaling fix itself some how.

Would you mind posting a screenshot of what the fixed scaling looks like? I've got a similar issue and no amount of reloads or tweaking will fix it

At least its possible to make it smaller in /Infobar/ , so it's possible to make it bigger.

You can see my small infobar here

You need to edit the value of RealUI.ModValue( x ) in Bar.lua and Blocks.lua
I'll show you my settings for lower Infobar, just increase the number and you'll (I think) get it bigger.

Bar.lua

Code:

Line 22 RealUI.ModValue(9) -- Was 16
Line 963 RealUI.ModValue(7) -- Was 9

Blocks.lua

Code:

Line 39 RealUI.ModValue(7) -- Was 10
Line 49 RealUI.ModValue(7) -- Was 9
Line 59 RealUI.ModValue(7) -- Was 9

Do you know if there's any way to change the font on the info bar? I'm trying to change it to pixel instead of the regular font, but I can't seem to get it to work no matter what I do.

The Infobar utilize the db.profile, which means that the fonts are the ones you choose in the addon settings.

In case of Infobar, the font is the same as Chat. So if you change the chat font in RealUI Settings, that changes the Infobar font. Don't forget to reload for view changes

For example I use my own font as Chat Font :

Yeah, I noticed that. Is there a different way around it? Pixel doesn't look good on chat, lol, but the info bar looks much more streamlined if it matches the rest of the UI being pixel.
