Default Need some help re spell gems on hotbuttons

Okay, trying to learn how to do some of this xml stuff myself. Getting a lot of things figured out, thanks to SidlWidl.

One thing I am completely stuck on, however, is how to shrink spell gems in hotbuttons. For example, the original hotbutton would be 40 by 40, with a spell gem offset of 7 by 7. What I want to do is reduce it to 30 by 30. Okay, can do that easy enough. I can figure out the difference for the offset by trial and error. But, I also need to make the actual spell icon itself correspondingly smaller, and I can NOT figure out where or how to tell it that.

I thought perhaps I needed to do something with it in the spellcast bar first, but again, I can't find anything that determines the size of the actual icon itself, just the background, highlight and holder.

Help?

Might need to reduce the size of the icons in the TGA files. At work right now so I don't have the list of files handy.

Oookay ... but why then, do you not need to change them for the buff bar? I can alter the size they show in that bar to my heart's content, without needing to mess with the .tga file.

If it turns out that I *do* have to alter the .tga file, well, guess I won't be making the hotbutton box any smaller. .xml I am kinda/sorta getting the hang of. .tga? I *always* screw it up!
