UIScale  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Version: 1.0
by: Phewx2 [More]
UIScale offers the possibility to set the size of the whole Interface independent of the Video Options.

How to:

- Open the UIScale.lua
- go to line 4
- change the value

- default is 0.6
- no limits! (a value between 0.000000000000001~ and 99999.0~)

- You can configure the addon while logged in. Change the scale and type /reloadui ingame and
the addon will be loaded with the new settings.
- You can use the command /script UIParent:SetScale(x.x) if you're looking for the right value for your settings.

I... Love... You.

I use BornabeUI now on a 17" MacBook Pro, with a 1920x1200 resolution... and when I'm at home I connected my MBP to a 27" ThunderBolt Display with a resolution of 2560x1440... well, you can see the problem right there, lol.

Your add-on has saved me both the hassle of not having you create two entirely separate WTF folders / settings... but also the hassle of having no clue how to fix my own personal problem... and as a perk, is now helping several of my multi-resolutin or oddball resolution users scale things above or below Blizzard's slider limitations in the options.

Thank you so much! I simply made a macro with the /script UIParent:SetScale(0.576) for my 17" display and use the Blizz default one for when I'm on my 27". You pwn me right now.

I don't get it either. If they don't believe it, why bash it without trying it first. What a bunch of N00B's

I would provide screenshots, but why would I want to go through all that work. When they could just try it.

I got on just to say thx for the addon. I run dual monitors one on top of the other with a Custom resolution as Blizzard calls it, (1920x2328 with bezel compensation). and because of the aspect the scaling option doesn't go low enough.

Thanks again couldn't play without it!
Well I could but I would be stuck moving my cursor to the side in order to get to the top screen. Thats what I was doing before your addon.

chances are that the 0.64 limit is hardcoded in the client and that any value lower then it will be ignored and set itself to 0.64 anyway
I don't get it...is this addon so unbelievable?

To be honest, Blizzard stops us from setting the UI scale below 0.64 because it looks horrible below that point. I don't understand any more why anyone would want to use this. Still, it's a good concept and devilishly simple. My kind of coding. >.<

CVar_uiscale: "Values lower than 0.64 have no effect".
Again... look at the screenshot. My UIScale is at 0.5 and it remains through relogs etc. because of the settings of this addon.

With this addon you could set the scale to 0.

Just try the damn addon

uhm...

And Ailae said to me that the code is free to use.

--CT_Viewport(screenshot) (probably the most popular)
--Sunn - Viewport Art
--Viewporter
--DragViewPort
--PolkaPort
--Viewport

Looking through the minimal code of UIScale, though, this isn't really a viewport mod. All it is is a "mod" that sets the UIScale...in exactly the same way that the built-in Blizzard Video options panel does. And exactly the same way the following chat command does: /run UIParent:SetScale(value)

There is no difference. Except that the built-in one is a lot more convenient to use (don't have to reload your UI and it retains its settings through relogs).
