Hey thanks for nui which is a great mod.

I have 3 issues:
1. when using the key Cmd M (to access other programs from WoW). It windows Wow and reduces the size by 75%. The issue i have is that ALL the black frames (top and bottom, chat, unit frame, combat text, top HuD, HUD becomes white,...) in nui become framed by a thick white line. By pressing cmd M again the white lines remains. The only solution is to reload the ui, which is not the best solution, especially in raids or when other depend on u.

2. Nui cost about 50 meg of Ram, is this normal? It seems it has quite an impact on my raid fps.

3. The titan pannel is working great with Nui, however the size of the windows/menu generated by titan when you press a option is not right. The font size seems too big and the frames are not complete (half of the window is missing,...). This becomes very annoying if i try pressing options in the sides or corners of the titan bars, because in some cases u cannot even see the full menu anymore.

This is a Blizzard bug which is very well documented, and also documented in the "Known Bliz / nUI Compatibility Issues" section of the current bug list for nUI which explains the root cause of the problem: http://www.wowinterface.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=21457

2. Nui cost about 50 meg of Ram, is this normal? It seems it has quite an impact on my raid fps.
In a 25 or 40 man raid, that would not be terribly out of the ordinary though that number tends to make me believe you're using an older version of nUI rather than the current development version. There has been a lot of work done to reduce it's use of dynamic memory and its impact on FPS. However, it is *really* worth noting that how much memory a mod uses is *not* relevant to performance with the single exception that sloppy use of dynamic memory causes issues with the garbage collector since WoW Patch 3.0 -- what matters is the efficiency of the code and I am working every day to improve that.

If you are not running 5.03.10 I would highly recommend you give it a go and see if it improves performance. I would also strongly recommend you see this FAQ and follow the instructions it contains: http://www.wowinterface.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=21716

Are you using the '/nui tooltips fixed' tooltip option? If so, this is also an already documented compatibility problem listed in the known issues post ( http://www.wowinterface.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=21457 ) Try using the '/nui tooltips owner' mode and see if that resolves it. You can also try using '/nui tooltips default' and then using a third party tooltip mod like CowTip, TipTac, TinyTip, etc.
