The "Perfect" Action Bar Border.

Hello,

I'm looking to get the perfect 1px action bar border. Currently I'm using rActionBarStyler and rActionButtonStyler (Luna). This gives me that perfect border, but I need to use a size of ~36 to get the perfect look, when I'm looking for something smaller

Any helping me here?

You might try Button Facade with ButtonFacade: PixelSkin.

When you mention perfect 1px borders you should turn off ui scaling, if you use it, and let WoW handle the scale for you (1:1 px)

If that's not something you would like you could always try moving the action bars pixel by pixel and see if you can find a location where the pixels are not smeared.

I use seperate frames for each button and add a backdrop to those with border size 1 / action bar scale. Perhaps not the most efficient but I found it's the only way to get a proper 1-pixel border.

That must take a while to set up If I had time, I would do that... maybe I could borrow your code? It's in FreeUI, I assume.

It's handled by code, I didn't actually write out individual frames for each button (though I could, it'd be mainly copy-paste, but it'd be way too much code).

It's in my UI, just a bit I added into a modded rActionButtonStyler.
