if player_entering_world ?

[Phewx2]

Hello.

A short question...
I'd like to write a addon to scale my ui down when I enter the game.
I've written a .lua with this:

if 	PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD then
	script UIParent:SetScale(0.5)
end

but it doesn't work :/
anything false?

try removing the word script.

Did you set up a TOC for your addon and put it in an appropriate addon folder ?

If that's the entirety of your code, it will never work.

Drycoded (meaning untested) it would be something like this:

local f = CreateFrame("Frame", nil, UIParent)
f:RegisterEvent("PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD")
f:SetScript("OnEvent", function(self, event)
	UIParent:SetScale(0.6)
	f:UnregisterAllEvents()
end)

and with all the other appropriate stuff Xrystal mentioned. I also doubt this is a very good way going about lowering the scale of your UI, does it even work?

I'd rather use SetCVar("UiScale", "0.6") though.

Yes and the addon is shown in the ingame addon list. ^^

Without the word script it doesn't work. :/


Yay, with this piece of code it works thanks Ailae
I didn't think it would be so complicated.
