FloridaFringe, I suggest you do a careful comparison of your skinnable_WindowElements.xml against mine. Several changes were made to that file, some of which were needed to properly size and position sub elements.

I'll double-check the map title, there's an extra button and I'm not 100% sure I adjusted the title width to accomodate.

The titlebar arangement while the map is shrunk may change. If I can make the location box more functional in this state I will. The Fog text getting cropped probably wont change, there simply isn't room and the box is still functional. In fact I might just clear the text when shrunk.

RE POI scaling: I think there's a couple issues at work here but I'll be looking into it more to confirm.

1) EQ2Maps uses 2 custom layers for its icons, an overlay and an underlay. SOE was kind enough to build in scaling support for the overlay but may have missed support for the underlay. I think this explains the large icons in zones with official maps problem.

2) Zones with no official map seam to be suffering from a different/general problem. I need to look into this more to determine exactly what the prob is.

- Could be a naming issue with the POI layer
- could be these zones all use the underlay for some reason
- or could be SOE's code isn't even looking for POIs on custom maps.

Yep, I noticed the Examine window prob. Its a visual annoyance I'll eventually fix
