Right click on the hotbar, select Window Settings, and ensure that you have "Frame and Titlebar" selected in the drop down. If it is set to "Frame Only", the move box will not pop-up when you mouse over the top, right hand corner of the hotbar.

You may also need to turn on the backdrop and/or frame and title colors (sliders) for the hotbar to find out exactly what size the window is. A couple of my hotbars were acting weird, but as soon as I turned on the black backdrop & frames, I was able to find that these new hotbars were using a different size than my previous hotbars. As soon as I reshaped the windows, I got rid of all overlap & was able to reliably get the move & hotbar up/down widgets to work correctly.

I do have overlapping issues...
Tried several hotbars mods and they all overlap eachother except mookshotbar but that one isnt updated.

I installed this one today and yes I did it install it correctly, just extract files in your custom ui right?

Still the hotbars are overlapping, also I had problems with dragging hotbars to the proper locations, only 2 hotbars I managed to drag anywhere on the screen and the other hotbars didnt even move..

What did I wrong ?

Excellent work Mortis. When I logged on yesterday to find that my hotbar mod no longer worked I was crushed. This is not only a replacement but an improvement on the one that I was using.

The only change (addition) that could make this any better would be the ability to remove the text from within the game and without losing the "item count" text that comes with manually editing the xml file.

Thanks again.

I don't know what changed but it works great now. Thanks much for all the work put into this and for getting me one step further into this crazy custom UI thingy.

Once the bugs are gone. Accept no other hotbar!

Making a long story short...

Logged in after launch of the new expansion and my old custom hot buttons didn't work.

Found the mortis hotbar here and decided to give it a go.

Now Yesterday (Launch day... The 14th) the buttons were grey'ed out in game and would not work. HOWEVER. These hot buttons are VERY well done. I've never seen any buttons so customizable.

You can literally resize and adjust them to any configuration you can imagine. And after everything is sized correctly, you can butt the hotbars right up against eachother with NO overlapping problems.

THESE BUTTONS ARE VERY PRESICE! And for a mage with over 110 buttons on his screen, that kicks some serious butt!

Now if you will excuse me... I'm going to happily download this and re-configure my entire GUI =D

Yeah, I just caught that too. Somewhere between the last day of beta, and when I got home after release I lost the file I had been working on, and had to make this one new. I did miss a few things.

Hopefully, I scrapped all the unused code, and replaced the calls to the Profit files with default calls.

This is why one can't rely on only oneself to debug. 8)

To move them, you need to make sure that in the windows settings the Frame & Titlebar are enabled. Then hover your mouse over the upper right hand corner. You should get a little box to appear like in the picture here. Holding down over the box will allow you to drag the window around.

Well, it's working better now. The "spinners" are still that white blur, but hiding them works so... Thanks for your efforts man, <3 ya.

Hey, cut SOE some slack. Annoying as the UI changes can be, this one especially was worth it. There was a pretty huge optimization in the recent update. I for one will accept a couple of days for the mods to catch up when the performance increase is as significant as this was.

I installed this mod, and it looks like it could work nicely except for one major problem. There is no way to drag the hotkey bars when they are totally horizontal. That means that in order to move them I have to squish them down to more than 1 row and drag them via the dead space. The problem that then arises is that I cannot drag them back to a single horizontal row because the cursor stops at the edge of my screen, just short of being able to drag the window into the correct configuration. Thus I can only position the window when it is resized incorrectly, and can only resize the window when it is positioned incorrectly. I'd love it if the author could find it in his heart to add some means of dragging the hotbar when it is horizontal.

Hey Mortis, now I'm getting just white blobs for all my hotbar icons.. Is there something else supposed to go along with the hotkey.xml?

Edit: Dunno if it helps, but the size hotbar icon option is missing too.
