Resolution change screws up my UI

#1 Post by XLambda »

So I didn't have time to play b38 a lot, but I recently switched monitors (from 1280x768 to 1280x1024), and now my talent bar has started to show only half of the first hotkey'd talent. Unlocking the UI and moving the other UI elements makes it jump between normal and this cut-off state, and when I'm lucky I get it to look normal. This definitely sucks though, I don't know if it's the system (I'm running Win7) or the high resolution.

Also, I think this was brought up by others before, but am I supposed to be able to move the combat log etc.? It does have an icon indicating that it can be moved, but it just moves the player character, which is rather confusing. Especially since everything else can be moved just fine.

Okay, never mind, seems like resetting the UI by deleting the config file solved the issue. Still, it seems this is a common problem. (Maybe it would be neat to reset it automatically when the resolution is switched... I don't know the technical side of things though.)
