Accepted for 2.0.0

This is ofc depending on what aspect ratio the user have on there screen.

With 16:9 in many menues there are some averlaping. Letters overlaping check boxes and such. Found 23 overlaps i think.

Maby not a "STEP" issue?

[Greg]

This could be useful. I seem to recall seeing some text overlaying the checkboxes, although I don't remember if this was in a profile for STEP 1.0/2.0 or my own personal profile.

Here is a typical issue, and second pic with the mod installed.

DynDLOD has this issue as well. Some text is cut off. Ideally most will not need to use the mcm for it.

It is an issue for many MCM. I found about 23 in the STEP Guide.

I guess I didn't realize we didn't have this mod in the STEP guide. I think it a must-have mod. Your compare highlights the issue very well. I recommend we add this one. I'll mark it for testing, but I think this is really a no-brainer.

Since we're putting it in infamous words of Z, I think this one is a no-brainer for the 2.0 guide.

Agreed

Sample screenshots of Complete Alchemy and Cooking Overhaul's Alchemy mod configuration page using the various options available. Offhand, I think Wider is a good choice as a recommendation and users should feel free the one they prefer.

SkyUI > Wider > Even Wider > Larger > Full-screen

Thanks for posting the compares. I guess I like larger or fullscreen, as those will have the least chance of wrapping or overlap.

Marking this as accepted. Added wiki page, added to modlist, and added to changelog for 2.0.0. I just put a short note to let the user choose whichever option they prefer with a link to Greg's compares.
