Hi,

I think it is a problem related to the specific font you choose that has big numbers and relative small letters in the same size.

For me the best solution you can find for you is to try to use another font because both size used in the portrait should be the same.

Please let me know.


HI,
Which core is related to status text?
I want to delete this .

thanks<3

Yes!
Thanks for the reply!
And thanks for the solution.
Set two chars font differently, seems working, menu and all after login were different for these chars.
No error message so far.
I'm a happy camper!
Now all my char UI will look SO SLEEK!

How can I achieve that please?

I use a lot of alts, I want to change their interface drastically, but if I use gmFonts, I have to change it log out log in in order to char name text to apply.


Would be insane good if the addon could remember the last set font per character? Any change...?
Hi,
I really never thought about it but you can try to modify the file:
gmFonts.toc

and change the line:
Lua Code:
  1. ## SavedVariables: GMFONTS

to:
Lua Code:
  1. ##SavedVariablesPerCharacter:  GMFONTS

Then start the game again and check if it works
Please let me know.

Hi,
I am sorry but I think the guide use the standard font used elsewhere.

I think you have to choose another font.
You can also use a custom font if the addon don't have a font that you like.

From the changelog:

"- added a custom entry in LSM menu "My custom font" to use a custom user font.
The font file has to be copied in fonts dir before the game is loaded with the name:
myfont.ttf "


Please let me know .

To set the chat font.

If you comment out the line:
Lua Code:
  1. -- f:SetFont(GMFONTS["N"], size)

probably you succeded in your task.

Please let me know.

I am seeing the same issues. I can set back the shadow again, but then this mod overwrites my changes. Is there a way to disable this just for chat?

You can use the Carlito font that was in the addon, because it is a dropin replacement for the Calibri.

"In 2013, due to Calibri's widespread use in Microsoft Office documents, Google released a freely-licensed font called Carlito, which is metric-compatible to Calibri, as part of ChromeOS...."

Calibri

I added the Calibri font from Tekicles. Add four LSM lines, one menu line, and add to the menu entry list. Not too bad. Tekicles was throwing a single error in a loop so it was throwing it a lot.
