[TEST] 2.16.06 (LU20b) - Interface Changes
 

Since there were only a few changes in LU20a I didnt post a compare for that test server patch. So that is why you wont find a compare for that patch.

User Interface Patch Notes:

• When you get a tooltip for an item that your class can use, you will also see the tooltip for any items you currently have equipped that the item could replace. These tooltips appear on items in any location except for hotkey bars and the equipped icons around the paper doll.
• If "target_allow_pet_member_toggle 0" is defined in your eq2.ini, F2-F6 will not switch targets to the group member's pet if the player was already targeted. And it will not switch targets to the group member on <SHIFT>+(F2-F6) if the pet was already targeted.
• If "target_allow_pet_self_toggle 0" is defined in your eq2.ini, F1 will not switch targets to your pet if your character was already targeted. And it will not switch targets to your character on <SHIFT>+(F1) if your pet was already targeted.
• The target window will no longer resize and send the epic flag off the bottom of the window.
• The client will now remember if it was maximized in windowed mode and, when the game is restarted, will restore to its maximized state.
• The guild window will now sort by adventure class names correctly.
• The quest helper can no longer be resized so small that the scrollbars fail to display properly
• The quest journal will now have a tooltip for rewards.
• The tradeskill UI will now update its component counts if your inventory changes.
• An option has been added to override icon tinting when spell requirements (e.g. not stealthed) are not met. Look in Options -> UI -> Spell Icons to turn the spell requirements off.
• Your success or failure at tradeskilling is now recorded in your chat window.
