    Text too low on Mac OSX (3.11 still has issue)

    This thread is actually the same as this one: http://www.shadowera.com/showthread....indow-Cropping
    Could someone please merge them?

    -----

    Hello,

    I have OS X El Capitan version 10.11.2 (15C50).
    I played today for the first time since v3.1 and here's what I get (attached file): players' names on top are small and blurry, while the text on the bottom is cropped.
    That's the only problem I've had. I tried to restart, didn't change anything.

    edit: actually, the text might be simply too big. In the game chat (2nd attached file), the font seems bigger than usual and the alignment is off.

    Almost everything is solved now: only the text you're typing in chat is too high, even almost disappearing after a certain number of characters.

    Also, and it was already the case before, the Mac OS menu bar disappears when the SE client is the active window.

    It is now fixed, thanks a lot

    Just for your information, in case you wanted everything to be perfect, the "selection bar" (dunno its real name) is still too low.

    3.16 - issue is back with more

    Hello,

    The last update (3.16) brought a few text issues on the Mac client:
    - when I want to write something, it appears under the textarea;
    - in-game new chat text seems to have a size that changes depending on the length of the message, which usually makes it appear huge (no problem in chat history though).

    Thanks for your attention

    Hmm. That does not happen for me. I am on El Capitan.

    EDIT: I think it only happens on certain resolutions. Which do you have?

    Wow, that's very low resolution! I didn't even know we supported that.

    Having tried 800*600 myself, I can see the same issue of the text appearing under the box in the in-game chat.
    The messages are also very big, but I think that's the intention, although we should try to make the background more transparent.

    I like this resolution as I don't need to have that much space

    Will the text size remain not fixed? That's the most annoying issue.

    Thanks, I'll be sure to test on 800x600 in the future. The in-game chat input is one of the few remaining artifacts of the old annoying UI
