I have a triple monitor setup, 1920 x 1080, total 5760 x 1080 desktop. I can move everything to the center screen by dragging, except for the experience bar at the bottom, it will not move out of the left corner. I'm not looking to load any custom graphics or change any colors, the base design is perfcectly fine for me, but not being able to get the XP bar centered is bugging me.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Hello there,

for now to move around the XP and default quick slot bar you need to edit the SkinDefinition.XML file especially the ToolbarField, the Toolbar_Quickslot.

Here's an example of how it would work with my UI. It shall help you sorting things out

Code:

<!-- Skin by Deewe -->        

<!-- http://www.lotrointerface.com -->        

<SkinName Name="Yessh 5760x1080"></SkinName>        Edited line

<!-- You have to change some parameters unless you play in 5760x1080 -->        Edited line

<!-- Choose the UI then exit the game once to be effective -->        

        

        

<!-- Toolbar -->        

 <Mapping ArtAssetID="letterbox_bottom" FileName="..\Graphics\letterbox_bottom_XP.tga"></Mapping>
