target/implied effects icons are getting chopped off
i'm using spork's target and implied windows, and it is having an issue where the effects icons are getting chopped off at the end:
although spork is active on the forums, i have not heard from him regarding this issue and was wondering what i could do on my own to fix this issue. any help is greatly appreciated.

Are you talking about that one icon on the left being a bit chopped off?
Or, do you mean when something has more than 3 rows of icons, and no more are dispalyed (the window no longer resizes to show any more)? I'm guessing by the picture you mean the former, correct?

aye, you are indeed correct, except it's the icons on the right that get chopped, not the left. this occurs in all visible rows. what can i do to fix this issue?

Right side, sorry hehe. (Brain thought "right," hands typed "left )
If you've ever used UIBuilder, you can just find that window and that particular bit and widen it by a couple pixles (maybe like 5 or so by the looks of it).

never used UIBuilder, but i guess it's time to try it out... i've heard from many authors here that it's notorious for adding extraneous code and messing up formatting though... hope that's not an issue...
should i use the UIBuilder in my eq2 directory? or is a there a newer version elsewhere i should acquire

Do your self a favor and make a back up copy of your UI. Then make the changes to your backed up copy. Then just use the file from that directory to replace the one in the real directory.
Yes use the one in the zip thats in your eq2 directory.

I think the most current version is the zipped file in your directory. Somone can correct me if I'm wrong.
And I think we're expecting a new version coming down the pipes sometime soon (something being who knows how long hehe).
It's really not that bad to use. Most of the time the problem comes from it changing manually-coded changes and misinterpreting them.
What I do to avoid that is this: I open the eq2ui.xml of the UI I want to edit, and then when it comes to save, I save to a new, temporary directory. I then compare the 2 files to see what changes IT made (IE, which ones I made through it, and possibly whatever else it messed up) and then I copy those changes I want (the good ones, not the UIBuilder messing things up ones) into the proper file in my regular UI directory. That way UIBuilder isnt ever writing directly to my UI in use hehe... it tends to do mean things when that happens.
