After playing around with the extended target indicator today while writing a better template system into my generator project. Came up with the following concept:

Note: the bracketted items are just tags for my generator, i is a zero-based index.

Code:

<LayoutBox item="ETW_Target[i]IndicatorRT">
		<ScreenID>ETW_Gauge[i]</ScreenID>
        <Style_TransparentControl>true</Style_TransparentControl>

        <AutoStretch>true</AutoStretch>
        <LeftAnchorToLeft>true</LeftAnchorToLeft>
        <RightAnchorToLeft>false</RightAnchorToLeft>
        <TopAnchorToTop>true</TopAnchorToTop>
        <BottomAnchorToTop>false</BottomAnchorToTop>
    </LayoutBox>

    <LayoutBox item="ETW_Target[i]IndicatorLB">
		<ScreenID>ETW_AggroPct[i]</ScreenID>
        <Style_TransparentControl>true</Style_TransparentControl>
        <AutoStretch>true</AutoStretch>
        <LeftAnchorToLeft>true</LeftAnchorToLeft>
        <RightAnchorToLeft>false</RightAnchorToLeft>
        <TopAnchorToTop>true</TopAnchorToTop>
        <BottomAnchorToTop>false</BottomAnchorToTop>
        <Pieces>ETW_AggroPct[i]</Pieces>
    </LayoutBox>

    <LayoutBox item="ETW_Target[i]Indicator">
        <Style_TransparentControl>true</Style_TransparentControl>

        <AutoStretch>true</AutoStretch>
        <LeftAnchorToLeft>true</LeftAnchorToLeft>
        <RightAnchorToLeft>false</RightAnchorToLeft>
        <TopAnchorToTop>true</TopAnchorToTop>
        <BottomAnchorToTop>false</BottomAnchorToTop>

        <LeftAnchorOffset>18</LeftAnchorOffset>
        <RightAnchorOffset>4</RightAnchorOffset>
        <TopAnchorOffset>6</TopAnchorOffset>

        <Pieces>LayoutBox:ETW_Target[i]IndicatorRT</Pieces>
        <Pieces>LayoutBox:ETW_Target[i]IndicatorLB</Pieces>
    </LayoutBox>

* ETW_TargetIndicator is the element that sets the location and size of the indicator rectangle. This can be resized any way you like.
* ETW_TargetIndicatorRT borrows the ScreenID from the HP gauge in order to cause EQ to pick it up as the Top-Right corner instead of the gauge itself. Anchors configured to inherit location and size from ETW_TargetIndicator.
* ETW_TargetIndicatorLB borrows the ScreenID from the aggro percent label to cause EQ to pick it up as the bottom-left corner. Anchors configured to inherit location and size from ETW_TargetIndicator.
* If the ETW_AggroPct element is not inside of the layout box that took it's ScreenID, it will display at all times since that is how EQ finds the label to show/hide it.
