OK, here's an update.
*First*, I got the inventory mod download to work by copying everything from the Default UI folder *except* my modded files and pasting it in.
In other words, I have around seven modded UI xml files. I copied every file, folder, and subfolder, xml or otherwise, from the Default UI dir to the customui UI dir EXCEPT for any file that would overwrite something already in my custom UI dir (the modded XMLs)
That made the inventory mod work, whereas before it was only showing the normal default one even with the eq2ui_inventory_inventory.xml file in place - is that normal to have to copy all the default unmodded stuff?
*Second*, I can't resize the eq2 Map - a pity, but we accept what we cannot change, next.
*Third*, I still do not know how to turn off the "Fog of War" on the Map. Like I said, before installing the map mod I *think* there was a check box for it, now there is not. How can I modify the eq2 Map Mod to disable the Fog of War?
<FYI - Fog of War = the places on the Map that are covered by black until you go there, which reveal that area>
*Fourth*, copying all those dfault files must have fixed the text alignment issue too, becuase a simple addition of TextAlignment="Right" to each text line in the maintained spells window did exactly what I needed. So that's done.
Finally, I have a *new* question:
There are many mods such as the one at:

Here is a picture of how it looks:

...that list the duration remaining next to the spell, which by default in EQ2 is only visbile on the tooltip.
What I want to have is the Spell *Effects* windows (the *other* spell icon window) *also* have spell durations next to each icon.
Both the icons in the Maintained Spell window and the Spell Effects window display remaining durations in the mouse tooltip when hover overed.
However, as fr as I can see, only the Maintained Spell Icons have associated DynamicData in the gamedata xml, the Spell Effects do not seem to have any DynamicData associated with them.
How can I get the duration info which is being displayed on the tooltips on the Spell Effect icons to display as conastant text beside the icon? Where to I get or reference the Spell Effect Duration from?
Thanks
