Now I saved this file out as eq2ui_mainhud_experience.xml but it just filled my directory with all the eq xml files (189 files). Is this normal? Do I go back and delete all the files except the eq2ui_mainhud_experience.xml? Is that how this works?
The UIBuilder is an old, ornery program from 2005. It's the only program I have that can easily blue-screen crash my computer (usually when setting an image SourceRect for a DDS file.) It's pretty obvious that SOE is using something else now. I never, ever save anything from the UIBuilder and I keep all my custom xml files write protected just in case I accidentally do.

I only use it to lay out things visually and do some script testing. All my actual editing is done and saved with Notepad++. It takes a bit longer but at least I can keep the UIBuilder from making a mess of everything.
