Wraping Text Help !

Darkami · #1 08-05-2010, 12:11 PM

I am new, and I like this UI, but text wont wrap in windows ! So, for example in chat to see what a person typing I have to extend the window 1/2 across the screen, because the test wont wrap within the window.

It gets really bad , on quest to read a quest and see all the text I have to extend the window all the way across the screen , because the text wont wrap to screens boundries .

In the 5-6 years I've been producing this UI, I don't think I've ever had anyone post this problem. Sounds to me like the EQ client isn't calculating the width of your fonts properly.

What operating system are you using, XP, Vista, Win 7?

Are you using standard desktop font setting, or did you change your system font size?

Did you somehow change or remove the font files from the Fetish directory?

Did you install some other mod "after" installing the Fetish UI?

Are you using an English client? If not, what language is it?

I have never messed with fonts, in-game or out.

I am running windows 7.

I have this mod and eqmaps 2 installed thats it

I tried reinstalling your mod same thing. everything else seems to work fine.

I downloaded it , drop it over the everquest folder told to to replace files is the only thing I have done.

I don't have a Win 7 setup to test with, but it doesn't sound like you're doing anything unusual. Other than making sure you're installing with admin privileges, I don't know what else to say. Never had this problem, no way to test it on my end.

That you're seeing this issue in multiple windows and in windows I know are using SOE standard fonts makes me go WTF!?

Would have been my only idea, too, maybe check that.

Maybe not installing the files to the right location. Don't get what you mean by dropping it over the eq2 folder and replacing files

The .zip file that Zonx puts up for Fetish starts with the UI folder and the EQ2.ini file. So to install Fetish, you can grab the UI folder and the EQ2.ini file in the .zip file, drag it and drop it over your EQ2 folder and everything goes into the right place.

P.S. Shouldn't you be listed as a Featured Author by now?

Someone bump up this man's title. He's earned it by now.

I get something similar. Mine wraps the text but cuts off the last two letters of a word before doing it.

Default Font size in game and out.
Windows Vista 64

Other problem I have with chat window is I can not see what I am typing. If I create a second window I can, or if I use default UI chat window it works.
