1) the hotkey bars are not resizable, which forces me to leave a fair bit of dead space on the top of my screen. I realize you know this already, but just another vote for fixing it

2) The targeting window (the one that says "An exiled orc, weak, etc")disappears if you have something targeted and get out of range. This leaves an ugly hole in my interface setup. I don't mind if the text disappears (in fact, that's probably a good thing, hehe), but is there any way to have the background of the window stay up?

3) This is the major one. The map is borked. Perhaps this is only a problem with the Commonlands, since I've only been there with the new interface. But here are the issues:

a) I started in East Commonlands when I logged in today. At first the background texture didn't come up (the fog was fine, and all the UIDs and portals were there, but the background was blank white). After a while, the east commonlands finally came up, so all was good. Not sure what the deal was there.

b) I wandered over to the West Commonlands. Had the map open at the time, and it switched over fine. Closed the map to do some other stuff. When I reopened it later, it shows me in East Commonlands again. The Fog is correct for WC, but everything else shows as if I was in EC (background, UIDs, and portals). I am definitely in WC at this point!

c) The menus at the bottom don't work at all. If I switch manually to any other map, I get the correct UIDs and portals, but no background, everything is black. This is only for outlying areas of Freeport (e.g. Commonlands, Thieves way, Serpent Sewer, The Ruins, etc). The city itself seems to work fine (Beggars Court, Freeport West, Scale Yard, and so on). Perhaps this is just an unfinished area?

d) The mini-map is blank. It has never shown anything ever.

Perhaps there is something I'm doing wrong here, not sure. Is the map not your deal? Should I post this somewhere else, hehe?

1. What do you mean by not resizable?
a. They reside, but shrink to the smallest possible size around the keys?
b. I can not change their size at all. IE can't make them 1x1 or 2x6 or ect.

2. That is intended to do that, so when you do not have a target there is more viewable game window. If you have things set up correctly it all should flow together, except for the hotkeys. The ui was made for 1480 x XXXX + and the lower res option are still being tweaked as time permits

3. The map is not mine, its fetish's map. For issues with it you need to head over to his map posts.
a. Did you run EQ2Map Updater?
1. If so did you tell it not to over write eq2ui_mainhud_map.xml?
2. If you didn't, you need to, and make sure you do #1.
