I'm not sure what your problem is, can you describe it in more detail?

It might be a tad confusing but I did it this way for maximum flexibility. In asking my guildies which bars they wanted horizontal, I never got the same answer twice... so this should satisfy everyone.
As far as the action window always showing on top, I don't know what is causing that. I just tested it for both my melee and caster layouts and that isn't happening.

This is still the .ini file bug but there is a different way to fix it that I've found thanks to the folks on the EQ Live boards.
What you'll need to do is open your UI_charactername_server.ini file and scroll down until you see (or do CTRL-F and find) [LootWnd]. Under that heading you'll find a bunch of parameters, but what you need is to find a height and width parameter for your screen's resolution. You need to change the number after the equals sign for Width to 160 and Height to 240. For example, on my computer it would look like this:
Width1920x1200=160
Height1920x1200=240
Save it and load EQ. That should take care of your loot window problems.

I don't at this time but it's in the works. The normal 1280x1024 version should work fine with some additions. What I did on my widescreen laptop before the new 1920x1200 addons was just to put a couple chat windows on each side with some of the spell and melee spam that I wanted to be able to see filtered into them and made the window transparent.

Any way for me to chance the UI items to be smaller so I can fit it in a 1024x768 screen?

While windowed you can resize the EQ window to 1280x1024.
Making the UI bigger is easy; I can just add windows. Making the UI smaller is much more difficult and involves basically graphically reconstructing and rewriting the whole thing. I've been considering a 1024x768 version for a while but the time factor prohibits it.

I haven't looked at the loot window since the patch, and can't right now because the servers are down, but off the top of my head I can't come up with the reason for your problem. According to my files the EQUI_LootWnd.xml file hasn't been modified since January 15, 2007. It may be the .ini settings file issues.
Once the servers come up, I'll take a look at it.
EDIT: My window appears to be functioning normally, try the .ini file fix I suggested earlier.

That is a problem with your .ini settings files caused by the changes that Sony made to the backend of the UI today.
What you'll need to do is log out of the game completely, then go into your base EQ folder and delete the defaults.ini file. In the d3vbs_v.2.3 folder, there will be a file called UI_username_server.ini. Replace username with your character's name and server with the name of your server. Move that file from the d3vbs_v.2.3 folder into your base EQ folder and say yes when it asks you to overwrite. Load up EQ. If you changed the name of the d3vbs_v.2.3 folder do /loadskin and reload the UI. That should solve the problem.
