Hi all, since i am also playing with a controller and yes controller UI is HUGE after this update i am using this fix to scale it.
Addon is called Azurah (Thanks to Author of this great UI addon) and i made a short video for it (Use mouse scroll to scale any window).

BisDasBlutGefriert✭✭✭✭✭Azurah is a darn good add on! Although, I kinda like how big the default UI is on gamepad mode now. Normally, I play about 8ft back from a huge tv that hangs on my wall with gamepad. for me anyhow, it's a nice change. But, not too many players can say that though I'll bet.
This is where azurah is nice too, if I want to move the comp back into my bedroom cause the kids and their friends want to play NHL 20 on the biggest tv in the house, I can shrink it down to scale better for my monitor.
Thanks for the short vid!~There’s a positive in every negative. Sometimes the positive is harder to find than other times, but there is ALWAYS one there~2 -

it has always been that big. People had choice before. The way it is now or slide the bar and make it smaller. They took away that choice4 -
BisDasBlutGefriert✭✭✭✭✭Ahhh....I musta had it scaled lower then before this update. Thanks for the info!!
Now I'm seeing aloooot of people aren't happy with it. And they definitely bring a good case. I can easily see why most wouldn't like it. Especially if they took away a choice.... sigh.~There’s a positive in every negative. Sometimes the positive is harder to find than other times, but there is ALWAYS one there~2 -

✭✭✭✭✭I don't use a controller or gamepad but there's really no excuse for taking away accessibility features in today's world. No wonder you're all upset!
That addon looks really cool - think I'll give it a shot for some other things I want to change.4 -
TheForseti✭✭✭@CiferX Is there any way to custom scale UI elements of other add-ons, namely LUI Extended? I've been using it for years and can't see myself getting rid of it.PC-NA | CP 1,400+ @The_Forseti1 -

I am not sure, only way to try it out and see.0 -
Does it help with how addons are moving around on the screen when you switch back and forth between gamepad and keyboard? Whole screen is anchored differently or something now. Did not used to be that way.3 -
TheForseti✭✭✭@CiferX I just tried it. I didn't see any options for it. I also do a lot of switching between gamepad and MKB, and every time I would switch I got a loading screen while my UI re-scaled itself. So unfortunately this fix doesn't seem viable for me for multiple reasons. Thanks for the suggestion, though!PC-NA | CP 1,400+ @The_Forseti1

That is because you have turned it on, you need to turn it off so you dont get loading every time.0 -
Wavek✭✭✭Doesnt seem to be able to handle inventory, npc store, guild store, bank etc. Any idea of a way to shrink those screens?0

✭Never had any issue with my controller.
Unless I get trampled at bg, then, my controller hits the floor at 120 mph.
Yeah, time to buy a new controller.

Move the chat window to the right side of screen as it is on PS4 and you can retain both.
May have to juggle some if you have other addons.
Or if you don't want loot history just disable as has been described.Edited by TequilaFire on February 26, 2020 1:51AM0 -

I read that somewhere else, but loot history toggle is not in my settings? is it in yours?
I already have lootdrop, but cannot remove the default gamepad loot history under the text.
I had read you could remove it on an older post so assumed the option had since been removed.0 -

Thanks for the advice, but i'm not sure if my brain could deal with that
besides its a part of the ui that can't be resized.
I am using lootdrop, but can't get the gamepad loot history to remove.0 -

Loot history is in Settings->Gameplay.0 -
universal_wrath✭✭✭✭✭Is it updated though? Any outdated add on present a risk of crashing the game.1 -

I've had the odd crash, mainly when I log out actually... Most are updated I think, I've been checking daily for updates.0 -

Mine isn't there anymore... I don't know when it was removed.
@ZOS_GinaBruno could you shed any light on this?1 -
