- - SetScale() ? (https://www.wowinterface.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2034)

Code:

<Frame name="DiscordMiniDropDown" inherits="UIDropDownMenuTemplate" hidden="true" toplevel="true">

        <Size>

        <AbsDimension x="120" y="-60"/>

        </Size>

        <Anchors>

        <Anchor point="BOTTOMRIGHT" relativeto="DiscordMini_Button">

        <Offset>

        <AbsDimension x="-80" y="0"/>

        </Offset>

        </Anchor>

        </Anchors>

        <Scripts>

        <OnLoad>

        DiscordMiniDropDown:SetScale(0.7);

        DiscordMiniDropDown_OnLoad();

        </OnLoad>

        </Scripts>

</Frame>

its not shrinking my dropdownmenu

Also, i have it set to inherit "UIDropDownMenuTemplate"... how can i change the font used?

i tried adding a <FontString> bit, and i tried setting font="...." within the <Frame> but nothing's working :x

UIDropDownMenuTemplate is in UIDropDownMenu.xml. Layers and frames can be larger than their parent frame's size. When you set a <Size> and then put inherited controls ontop of that frame, it will use the size tags in the inherited control.

Also I think for dropdowns, the UI adjusts the width for its content? Not certain since I never use them.

A single Dropdown menu is shared across the entire UI, so if you do alter its font it will likely stay altered for all other mods. You've done a lot of work in it already but one thing I'd suggest is perhaps making your own dropdown without inheriting one. If there's only a handful of options that don't change as the mod is used, it's simply a matter of making a frame with buttons inside. Then you can have greater control of size, font, etc.

I tried duplicating the UIDropDownMenuTemplate code from the base FrameXML, but when i rename it, i get some weird error from titanutils ( ya i know wtf ) saying something like 'MyNameDropDownMenuTemplateDrop1" or something...
