<p>Greetings,</p><p>The message that pops up when you move to a different location, or when you level up, etc. isn'tdisplaying properly. The xml file "eq2ui_mainhud_onscreenmessage.xml" has "Center" for TextAlignmenthowever the text is displayed left justified.</p><p>This is only slightly annoying since when you go to a place with a short name (such as the Bank) its pushedoff to the left of the screen rather than in the center.</p><p>Is there a workaround to re-center the text?</p>

<p>I'd wager it's either a setting on your system overwriting what the game's settings are set to do. Or, it could also be an unintended side effect of a UI mod.</p><p>It may be more difficult to track down if it's my first theory. Otherwise, do you have any EQ2 UI modifications on your system?</p>

I actually made a point not to use any UI mods at first just to make sure everything rancorrectly. Interestingly enough however, I created a new character and logged in, keeping the UI at the default.I then logged out and back in under the "problem" character and did /load_uisettings, choosing that "default"character from the list. At first glance it didn't seem to help until I completely exited the game and logged back in.Not sure exactly what happened but bottom line is it seems to have corrected itself.</p>

<p>Greetings,</p><p>The location info you are referring to is actually a UI element that can be dragged around the screen. It's easy to drag around the screen by accident since it is invisible most of the time. If you run through an area so that it pops up then you should be able to right click on it and unlock it. Then move it to the location you want and lock it back in place the same way. I realize you've already corrected the issue but that should help if it happens again in the future.</p>
