GUI Element size

MrGreen

<div class="IPBDescription">How do I make them bigger</div>Since 161 the GUI objects have become smaller when in commander view.
I run at 2560x1600 so that may have something to do with it.

Is there any way I can make them bigger? (as they are a bit too small now.)

They where made smaller to take up less space on lower resolutions

This is actually a really good point.

I can't afford a new pc at the moment, but things are very much playable on my laptop at 640x480.

As this is in LUA is there a way of scaling it's size as a percentage?

For me the biggest issue is the marine buy menu, as it blocks the weapon select menu, and sometimes the alerts block the view

I asked Brian, he said it can be scaled but the problems is: it sounds like some math needs to be applied to reposition stuff accoriding to the scale, and not all parts of the GUI like text want to scale with them so much or at all as well as these having child elements, think he said he needs to get those to inherit parents scale. Sounds like he has it all pre thought on how to tackle it so probably will do it later..

i bet multi-point anchoring would make this less of an issue

If we can scale and reposition elements in Lua, we can probably create a custom "high-res" commander layout ourselves.

Cheers for the reply Barlow, good stuff :D
