Hi, this is my current setup :
http://tof.canardpc.com/preview/104981ce-93bc-4121-b74b-3d430fbb0c8c.jpg (http://tof.canardpc.com/view/104981ce-93bc-4121-b74b-3d430fbb0c8c.jpg)

On the right side of my screen i have :
http://tof.canardpc.com/view/2c0ea479-1cf4-435a-9429-35d266646c82.jpg

So, a custom grid with all my chars and a repeater on it.
A maacaroon action bar with my main character independant cooldown.
A video fx of each of my char with their independant cooldown as well
And on the top, i have a videofx of each of the focus on my slaves. If i go on the videofx of the focus of one of my slaves, each toons target it. Really usefull for hex and keep track.
I'm using xperl who have the ability to color life bar according to the target class.

So, my problem is lisibility, i can't read the name, and btw the xperl font is not really lisible.
Do you have some clue of how to fix that ?

FAQ: Why does my Video FX view show up pixellated/low resolution/low quality? (http://isboxer.com/wiki/FAQ#Why_does_my_Video_FX_view_show_up_pixellated.2 Flow_resolution.2Flow_quality.3F)

I have a similar setup, but i have a separate player unit frame (and minimap) off screen that is sized for display on the main's via fx.

So on your setup my screens would be like below, i have 2 and 4 wider than what is displayed and that wider section is 'under' 3 and 5, 4 and 5 are wider than displayed and the wider section is 'under' 1. this allows me to show the images that are proportional to 1, but horribly unappealing on their own screen. the 'wider' parts are in a view port as well so there isnt issues with background terrain and so forth.

[2][3][1]
[4][5]

for what its worth i also have '1' carrying over to the another monitor and a view port that limits '1'. one this other monitor are where skada, quest, broker, combat log stuff are located.

the slaves just run, sexycooldown, buffbar, suf that is very grid-like and their casting bar that is visible. the vuhdo stuff is in that viewport that is tucked under the screen.

Hi :)

Although Baltyre is sharing his UI i think he is mainly looking for answer to his question


So, my problem is lisibility, i can't read the name, and btw the xperl font is not really lisible.
Do you have some clue of how to fix that ?

I cannot help myself with this,as i use shadowuf for my UI target bars etc,

but Baltyre wants help with changing the font in his experl ui addon

Also

Must be a translation thing etc..but

" lisibility " means " visibilty "

" lisible " means " visible "

just to help out,if its not so obvious

:)

Edit: Lax answer though should be the key,Baltyre,i skimmed by without noticing oops :)

Sorry, my english sucks.
Thanks Lax, i will try with the DXNothing stuff.

Btw, can we hope to get a feature in a future release of isboxer ?
Currently, on a videofx viewer windows, we can only do action when we mouseover in/out the viewer.
It would be awesome to be able to configure a mapped key when we click on the mapped fxviewer source.

In my exemple, all my focus are videofx windows, currently i get all my toon focus a target if i mouseover in/out in the videofx viewer who show the focus.
But it would be far better if i can do that with a click on the videofx frame and nothing with mouseover.
