SC2Mapster

Thanks for all the help. I finally figured it out.

Here is how I did it for anyone who also needs it.

Moving default SC2 Chatbox to lower left corner:

• Create a new text document. Name it anything you want with extension "SC2Layout". Example: MoveChatBox.SC2Layout
• Open it with notepad and paste this in:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
<Desc>
<Frame type="MessageDisplay" name="GameUI/UIContainer/FullscreenUpperContainer/ChatDisplay" file="GameUI">
	<Anchor side="Left" relative="$parent" pos="Min" offset="0"/>
	<Anchor side="Bottom" relative="$parent" pos="Max" offset="-40"/>              
</Frame>
</Desc>

• Save the file. Open your map.
• Open the Import Module (F9). Import your file, then save.
• Open the Data Editor. Go to Game UI Data ==> Default SC2 UI Settings ==> Custom Layout Files. Like Helral said :D and add your file in that field.

• If you want to move the chatbox right, increase the offset="0" in the left anchor.
• If you want to move the chatbox up, decrease the offset="-40" in the bottom anchor.

Ok I pasted the exact codes you wrote into the SC2Layout file and put it into my map. Nothing happened.

Anchors? Sorry I'm not familiar with specific terms.

That is a nice tutorial, but not what I need.

I need to move the SC2 chatbox.

It seems simple enough. Does anyone have a layout file for it?

@Helral: Go

How do I move the chatbox to the lower left corner?

I need a step-by-step explanation. I won't know what to do if I just get a list of codes.
