Are you playing in widowed mode? People are having issue with size and location of pieces even with the default UI so I think it's the *new* draggable window stuff that's causing the problems.

Not in windowed. And changing to windowed does not fix problems

Using Marble blue, and pretty much same as above, the buff bar is tiny at top, massive in the middle, and tiny again at bottom, can't see any icons or names on it .


Same, not in windowed.

It's an EQ issue, there is a dev looking at it now, it seems to be impacting custom UI's but not default.

Just to add spice my buff bars are squished in the middle twelve thru twenty-two and the text is pushed almost centered over the icons. The song bar is squished from number eleven down.

Briget do you have a link to the thread where they are discussing the fix?

yeah I'm seeing it too, but this is not a Tablets problem it's an EQ problem with custom UI's there are tons of reports of it all over the SOE forum.

Update: reports are that deleting your UI_toon_server.ini file (or copying it somewhere safe so you can then copy back the hotkeys) and letting the game create a new one is fixing this problem.

Update 2: I just confirmed the above step does in fact work.
_______________________
Update 3: to fix it without having to redo your hotkeys you can delete the sections of the UI_toon_server.ini that are messed up. For me it was only the buff windows so I found the section of the UI_toon_server.ini file that had the coordinates for the buff windows:
[BuffWindow]
[ShortDurationBuffWindow]
Delete the entire section that pertains to that piece of the window, so you delete the title and the coordinates that follow it, ex:
[ShortDurationBuffWindow]
XPos800x600=699
YPos800x600=258
Width800x600=104
Height800x600=86
BGTint.red=255
BGTint.green=255
BGTint.blue=255
BGType=1
Fades=true
Delay=0
Duration=500
Alpha=255
FadeToAlpha=255
Locked=true
Show=1
XPos1024x768=5
YPos1024x768=53
Width1024x768=104
Height1024x768=72
XPos1280x1024=134
YPos1280x1024=1
Width1280x1024=82
Height1280x1024=496
XPos1280x960=1175
YPos1280x960=52
Width1280x960=105
Height1280x960=375
INIVersion=1
XPos1680x1050=136
YPos1680x1050=1
Width1680x1050=104
Height1680x1050=160
Minimized1680x1050=0

Now Save the UI_toon_server.ini and when you log in the game will recreate those portions of the file.

I must be cursed, lol

Deleting the corresponding files I fixed both my pet window and my player window but my buff windows are now worse then before. Now I have 3 numbers on right, to the left of that my buff icons are lined up in 2 rows horizontally and text is separate to left of it all, but whole thing is only the height of 2 rows.

Did you log out and then try deleting the [buffwindow] and [shordurationbuffwindow] sections? Make sure you delete the whole section for each one of them.

I'm using left aligned let me try the right aligned and see, sec...

Ok, I tried the right aligned and had no issues. Maybe try the left aligned, delete the buff sections of the UI_toon_server.ini and load the game, then if the left aligned work, swap them for the right aligned and see if it works. Since I had mine working with the left aligned already maybe that's why I had no problem.

I loaded default stretched and narrowed my buff windows till the text was in the boxes and the buttons were the right size. Took me four tries.

Didn't delete anything.

I'm going to reload tablets from scratch. I just can't get them to work. Only thing I can guess it is now is my spell gems. I'm using King's modified, maybe thats throwing things off.

I have right aligned also and deleting those 2 sections didn't help at all nor did it recreate that part of the .ini I'm trying again only running a full file scan to see if it helps.

OK, I did a fresh tablets install. Deleted the buff files from my ini, same problem.

So I renamed both Buff xml files inside my tablets folder and let it load the default. I got a horizontal buff bar the same size as what tablets was creating.

My guess. default is trying to force my tablets buff bars to mimic the default buff bar?

Is the default buff bar supposed to horizontal?

I don't use default, never have so I have no idea what its supposed to look like, or if it gives you any options as to buff bar configuration.
