I20's Huge Chat Window

I can't speak for anyone else, but as for me, I'm sorry to say that the size of your new chat window does not work for me. Now I've changed the Window Interface setting so all the windows are smaller, So I can actually... you know see my character on the screen. But seriously guys, you need to trim down the window or put some things elsewhere. The minimum width of this thing should not be across half of the screen. This is one of the things we can't really customize, (though the ability to do so would be awesome.)

Known issue right now. They're working on it.



Clicking on the linked image above will take you off the City of Heroes site. However, the guides will be linked back here.

I have the EXACT same issue. This looks terrible. If you shrink the window scale in the graphics options the FONT looks absolutely tiny. But if you try to enlarge the font size, it gets too large.

I'm sorry but I can't play with a chat window that takes up almost 1/2 of my gaming screen. Who thought this issue should go live again?? Crap as always.

Forget Issue 20, not playing a game like this.

Nodonn, have you tried using TweakCoH to pick a different font and font size, then adjusting the window size and font size in-game?


Characters
Bound Kitty: Cl/Regen Scrap lvl 50! Unified Kitty: PB lvl 50! Jenoma: Eng/Pain Corr lvl 50! Operative Jenoma: Fort lvl 50! Alicia Steele: KM/WP Scrap lvl 50! and others on Pinnacle/Virtue! @Bound Kitty on Live/Beta

Agreed. It's too big.

A number of people posted about this in the beta bug forum. Didn't seem to make a difference.
