Hey there!
I am having issues since 1.9 with the scale (like everyone else) and I realised that the Auction frame did not follow the scale I used for everything else.
So, I was wondering how you did that.

What I'm planning to do is make a very small addon for each panel that would reset the scale to "normal" (like Auctioneer) while keeping my UI scale down to 0.64
I like having screen real-estate and dropping the scale of the bottom bars was paramount, but it had the unfortunate effect of reducing all the other panels as well to something that is kind of unreadable.

So, I looked at the Auctioneer files but there's so much of it!
If you could point me in the right direction, I would be very gratefull. No need to take me step by step (altho, that would be great cause I know nothing of LUA - but I'm a quick learner and know other programmation language), just a good pointer of where to look would be great.

Thanks a lot.
Naf

p.s.: worst case scenario, I could always use that information to scale down only the bottom bars, but I think that might be more trouble than it's worth.

Actualy, and quite accidentally I am sure, I decided to make modifications to EngInventory because it was behaving badly with the scale as well.
So I went in and changed every occurances of GetScale for the now 'politically correct' GetEffectiveScale and suddenly, all of my panels have their normal size again!

Maybe (since you guys are apparently the maintainers of EngEnventory) you could make an update? :-)

I don't think maintainers is quite the right word. Norganna made some compatibility changes to EngInventory, but I have no clue if he has any plans to do it again. Nevertheless I will try to remember to pass this on to him for review.
