Default 12345/12345 --> 12345 / 12345 ????

A simple thing has defeated me. The HP and Mana standard readouts all are in 12345/12345 format. They would be a ton easier to read as:

12345 / 12345

with the spaces on each side of the slash.

Is there any way to modify the standard SOE control I have missed for this? Or perhaps a standard SOE element I have overlooked? Or am I stuck continuing to hard code it from the individual pieces?

I usually take some of the excellent UIs and tweak them for pure-caster use (like the ratserv tabbed player window -- eliminating endurance, adding labels, etc) and one of the common needs is larger, easier-to-read mana digits. I can adjust spacing to make the mana readout larger .. but short of aligning three seperate pieces (curr mana, /, max mana) I wondered if the standard SOE element can be changed or if there is a spaced version I have not found.

EQ Types

17 = Current Hit Points
18 = Maximum Hit Points
124 = Mana Number
125 = Mana Number Max
126 = Endurance Number
127 = Endurance Number Max

70 = Player Current HP / Player Max HP (Note: Color indicates condition)
128 = Mana / Max Mana
129 = Endurance / Max Endurance

You would need to replace the 70 part with 17 / 18 in the player window to display what you want for hps.

nm, re read your post. No you cannot change the eqtypes 70, 128 and 129 to show a space.

Best way currently is too use separate current and max mana values.
Something like
[eqtype124 left aligned] [noeqtype text /] [eqtype125 right aligned]

Thank you Savok and Oakling. I figured the type 128 could not be changed, but hoped there might be a type "828" I had not heard about.

I will use the basic apporach Oak suggested.

Thanks!
