View Full Version : Resetting the Layout to default?

Just wondering how this could be done. Pressing the default button seems to reset settings to default, but the actual layout seem unaffected. I've even tried deleting and re patching numerous UI related folders, but nothing seems to work.

Also I noticed that when you move frames around in a UI Mod, then go back to your default UI, the frames are still out of place. It does seem that layout is entirely enclosed within the UI Shell.

Any help/advice is appreciated.

All window positioning and chat settings are stored as bin\VGSettings.xml Deleting this file will reset all windows of the currently install ui to their default positions. If the UI is set to the default it will restore the default ui positions.


It is a good idea for all mod authors to use custom names on the windows that they change so that when switching between interfaces the windows are not in an odd arrangement.

I had an issue with a container slot (cotton bag or something) that wasn't opening.

As it turns out, it was opening (I could hear it but not see it). I guessed that it might be opening outside the screen somewhere. Renaming the VGsettings.xml file fixed this problem. Now I just have to put all my other setting back...

It would be nice if there was a "cascade" or "tile" option for open windows or something similar that could fix this sort of thing.
