I tried setting the window to sizable, but it won't resize past the top atlas tab (and the map is actually smaller than that) and the bottom won't resize up at all. Any ideas as to which of the updated files broke this and how I can fix it? I copied all of the Sony-updated files into my custom UI folder this morning. One of them was responsible, guessing EQUI_Templates perhaps? Thanks for any help!

Bad news is as i thought this would fix the small map problem it did not...back to the drawing board. Hal

Confirmed Mini Map window is borked!

Notice the Atlas window though- it is resized to fit the new window size but the bags and map window are not. There is where the issue is I would suspect.
