Grid2 layouts frame width and height issue #699

    I setup all layouts that I need, e.g. Solo, 5man, 10man up to 40man, I want the whole grid to scale, it starts big, then when 40man it becomes very small, I initially used the frame width and height, from 60x60, until 40man which is for me 30x30 grids, I like squares, everythihng looked nice but then to my sock the indicators and all of my setup remained the same exact size, which is inconvient, now I know that it is working as intended because it doesn't say "Scale down or up in the layouts tab" it only changes width and height, but that is a problem to me as you can see, the indicator boxes are way too big for a 30x30 and if I make them fit, then they will be very small for my 60x60, how to overcome this issue? in other words I was trying all day to figure out how to make it a scaling thingy rather than just changing the width and height of the boxes, please advise.

    Usually when the scale is changed, the frames looks ugly, texts too small, some lines not visible or duplicated, etc.

    If you want to change the frames appearance in a more complex way, enable themes "General Tab">"Enable Themes"  (a new themes section will be displayed in the left panel).

    Then you can create multiple themes, for example one different theme for each raid size.

    Each theme has his own "appearance", "indicators", and "layouts" tab, so you can customize each theme as you want, with different indicators, sizes, positions, fonts, scales, etc.

    ok thats a nice idea, will do just that! but will it automatically switch to that theme upon joining a specific group number? for example if > 39 ppl, switchh to xx theme and so on and so forth? thanks again.

    Themes can be switched automaticaly based on the instance raid type and/or instance size, so you can configure a theme for 5man instances, lfr, mythic, battlegounds, arenas, etc, and raid sizes 10man raids, 20man raids, 25man raids etc (this is based on the instance size not the actual number of players in the raid).
