As it seems you're trying to replace/change about everything in this addon, i suggest you write your own.

Hey mate, and anyone that can help: I was wondering of a way to increase the font size within the LUA (I have changed a line, where it said 9, I.E:
Code:
frame.level:SetFont(font1, 9)
but the font stays the same. )

Any help would be appreciated


Nevermind, I found the correct line.

Code:
newNameRegion:SetFont(font1, 6, "OUTLINE")
Just had to change the 6.


Thanks though!

Thank you for this latest update.

Now, people should be able to easily change the font since it is listed right at the top of the file.

Why does everyone ask the same questions over and over again? Read the previous comments before you ask how to do something.
