Well...look at it, the data says that it is for the group.

I'm kind of confused.

[Drumstix42]

My best guess would be accident copy and pasted text, or "group" refers to each hotbar window

Looks indeed like a copy'n'paste accident on the description. As much as I would have liked group DD to be fixed.

Drago, to quote Rothgar:

In other words, you can put countdowns on top of the icons.

And we can apparently do proportional scaling of images now:

StretchType="ProportionalBound"

That will be very useful to prevent my background graphics from strechting, for example.

can someone find out if their supporting both the old version of the g15 with the flip up lcd (as pictured above) or just the current line of g15's http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/ga...s/devices/3498

for the history

[Dolby]

Both G15's are the same, use the same software/drivers. The only difference is the design and lcd back light color.

[Narzoo]

I might actually have to buy a G15 now.

I realise that it will probably be more effort to look at the keyboard than the health bars on screen....but...I love my health bars

This is looking to be a great Liveupdate

Is there a way to just install those features or how do you get them to function on the screen like that?

Install what features? Can you elaborate more on what your looking to do?

*BTW this is a old thread for the test server compare. There is a new thread now because GU43 has been pushed live.

Like I see those pics over your G15 screen with the stats etc. but how can I get them on MY screen... I don't see like a download or anything so I was just wondering how you did it.

That is part of the GU43 update from Sony, once you update EverQuest II you should automatically get the G15 screens.

If your not seeing them I'd create a new thread in our help forum explaining your problem and listing what interfaces you are using (maybe you need to update something).
