Hi,
I'd also like to suggest the following things for the wvw overlay:
1. Option to use smaller icons/text, because currently it takes up a lot of space. 2. Maybe provide an option to see a map layout with the objectives, like a mini-map, showing the entire borderland map, but tiny and zoomed up with the objectives marked on them. 3. is it possible to somehow figure out what objective is contested?
Thanks! And great work!

Hmm I'll see what I can do... I might be able to make the icons/text smaller. Just out of curiosity, what resolution do you run at?
There are actually a bunch of overlays out there that already do something like this. I think there's one created for Rainmeter, and then several others created for Overwolf. I can't really promise I'll ever add something like this to the PAO.
Unfortunately, no, this is not accessible in the official GW2 API. There might be ways of doing this, but I can't promise that this will ever be added to this overlay.
Again, thanks for the suggestions. Let me know if you find anything else that could be improved!

Hi,
My resolution is at 1920x1080, but my DPI setting is 125%, maybe that is why it it could be larger. (Windows 7)
About the map layout, yes i know overwolf has such an app, but i tried overwolf and it was buggy for me, it kept pressing shift(making my character dodge) whenever i focused back to the game from clicking some overlay. Also i like your collapsible overlays more, didn't see it over at overwolf.
Thanks for the quick answers..
Best Regards.

Gotcha. Thanks for the information! I need to do more testing with different resolutions and DPIs, so we'll see what I can do to maybe improve the tool for those cases. I'll look into adding a map, but I can't promise that I'll ever get to adding it. Maybe, maybe not. Thanks!

Is it possible to have an additional option to sort the objectives by distance?

Definitely. This should be pretty easy to do - I'll put it on my list. Thanks!

Love this so far. Is it possible to include the presence and duration of any Righteous Indignation buffs? This would be amazing if you can add it. Thanks in advance.

The tool has to run for at least 5 minutes before it's accurate, but whenever you see a Red count-down next to an objective in the WvW tracker, that count-down is a timer for the Righteous Indignation buff.

Oh, brilliant, pardon my ignorance ^^ In that case, couldn't really ask for much else, really great job!
