  Because of the resized icons, the pet level text is cluttering. ticket 70 suggests to remove that text if the pet is level 25.

  Your image seems good to me. Thanks for making a patch! I hope this helps convince the author to implement this.

  I would be fine using this change it as-is. However, I would recommend placing the team icons to the left and the team names to the right.

  With the icons to the left, there could be more space for team names on the right.

  Below are some ideas which I'd create separate tickets for if your patch were accepted in some form. I'm placing these here so they're recorded somewhere and don't get lost.

  You can probably ignore the following notes..

  ---

  Implement an icon size toggle

  (If your patch was accepted, then I'd create another ticket with this idea)

  It could be useful to give the user an option to select what icon size they prefer. My use case:

  • "zoom out" (small icons)
  • drag a pet or a team to another location
  • "zoom in" to more clearly view a team

  Some sort of resize button in this UI might help.

  Implement resizable team names

  (If your patch was accepted, then I'd create another ticket with this idea)

  Some ideas:

  1. Create a "handle" on the teams UI to let the user drag and resize the team names.
  2. Within the addon configuration panel, implement a slider for the number of pixels for the team name width.
  3. Automatically detect the screen width and
     • Have the team names automatically become as wide as possible to the right, but not past the right edge of the screen and not wider than is necessary for the longest team name.
     • For people who use the UI undocked, if they move it then automatically adjust the UI's width once they let go of moving it.
     • Note - For people who use the UI undocked, this could be a jarring and annoying feature and might need an option to disable it. Idea #1, above, would probably be the best feature to avoid this annoyance.
