THIS FILE USES CUSTOM EQ2UI.XML FILE. IN ORDER TO WORK RIGHT YOU MUST EITHER DOWLOAD MY EQ2UI.XML OR FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS:

2 -- Right-click eq2ui.xml, select Edit.
3 -- After the last ">" [before </page> ] enter the following text:

<include>_EhlricStyleSamples.xml</include>
<include>t_styles.xml</include>
FEATURES:
1 || Auto-Assist-On-Click: Automatically triggers Assist and Auto-attack when the GroupMembers name is clicked. Normal assist targeting still occurs upon clicking elsewhere in the GroupMember window.
2 || Auto-Resize: No more having to worry about resizing your group window. This feature enables the window to stretch or shrink itself depending on how many members are in group
ANTI-FEATURES:
1 || Does not include group effects icons, as melee characters have no need for them.
UPDATE v0.6
------------------------------------------------------
1 || Feedback suggested to dulldown member names. Looked in game and realized I did have them a tad on the brightside, so I dumbed them ... er DULLED them back down.
Other pending updates include an EhlricGroup F1-F6 window. This will most likely be available in vertical only, unless there is demand for it.
Also, keep an eye out for upcoming EhlricPlayer and Ehlric Target.
UPDATE v0.5 BETA
-------------------------------------------
1 || Changed window outlines from beige/gold to grey. Adjusted outlines so that everything was symmetrical and pretty like.
2 || Changed the name background colors to be a bit brighter.
3 || Removed toggle button for the time being, because the durn thing doesn't work right at all. Considering creating a horizontal version for those that desire it.
4 || Feedback suggests that I implement F1 into the group window as well. At present there are no plans to do so, because I would have to readjust all window sizes, and I dont want to do that just yet. Also, my upcoming Ehlric_Player is designed to augment/complement the group window. As soon as I get a layout I am pleased with, I will release it in BETA in a nother thread.
v0.4 BETA
------------------------------------
Implemented Layout Toggle button.
Group window will now rearrange itself based on personal preference.
Cut Main Window size down to 256pixels long, so that when the group window is full in horizontal layout, total GroupWindow length is 1280pixels.
v0.3 BETA
------------------------------------
Implemented Vertical Stretch/Shrink effects.
Main Group window will automatically resize on adding/removing of group members.
No more hassle of not being able to see your members
Greatly Enlarged Group Progressbars because the stock one is just too darn small.
v0.2 BETA
-----------------------------------
Decided to use Zonx FetishGroup as a mold for the mod.
Replaced his group progressbar styles with his standard styles.
Removed/Hid Effects Icons from GroupMember windows, because I don't need them.
v0.1 BETA
------------------------------------
Initial Concept, see First thumbnail.
CREDITS:
Zonx: For his unyielding "support" and willingness to put up with my inane and asinine questions. Also, many features have been borrowed from his various resources, whether it be coding, DDS files, or what-have-you. For his shrinko-matic windows and such, because they were my inspiration for this window tweak.
Sunthas: The original design was based loosely off of his Moab-style Target and Implied Target Windows.
Talyns: For created the exzact look of a UI that I wanted before I knew I wanted it. I used a few of his DDS files for my backgrounds, frames, and other files.
Others: Credit going to all those lovely people who actually tried my UI and gave me feedback on it. And anyone else I might have forgotten
