Changing scale on default blizzard "Changed Target"

[maltese]

I recently built a new computer and I am running a triple monitor setup. My screens resolution is 6000*1080 due to using bezel correction. This has resulted in the standard blizzard chat bubbles and on screen notification of something targeting me, changing targets or losing agro to be absolutely gigantic. Does anyone know of a way to change the scale of these?

Chat bubbles are frames. They are rendered into the WorldFrame.

Say something and then try

for i = 2, WorldFrame:GetNumChildren() do 
	local frame = select(i, WorldFrame:GetChildren()) 
	local tregion = select(11, frame:GetRegions()) -- regions 1 to 10 are the bubble textures
	if tregion:GetObjectType() == "FontString" then
		print(tregion:GetText())
	end
end

(guess deactivating the nameplates while trying this would be helpfull)

As you can see the are accessible. Must be possible to resize or scale them.

I actually solved the chat bubble issue by using a pretty nice chat bubble skinning mod. I still have the "blizzard combat text" notifications that something is targeting me, changed target or I'm losing threat. I say combat text in quotes because I actually have combat text turned off and I am still getting those notifications, so I'm not sure what those notifications are from.

Would the same method you listed above work for that?

It's a part of damage text that can't be turned off unfortunately. One solution is to hide it with something like xDamageFont using a blank font file. In xDamageFont.lua change the below path to a path to your blank font file (or name & locate blank file to below).

local damagefont_FONT_NUMBER = "Interface\\AddOns\\xDamageFont\\Fonts\\damagefont.ttf";

thank you so much! I'll check that out and see if I can just change the scale through that addon. I don't necessarily want to get rid of it, just make it a LOT smaller
