LOOSE the slider in the gal map

It not useful and keeps getting in the way and is annoying as all get out.

The mouse wheel serves the same function and is NEVER messing with the gal sizing unless the player wants it to.

I use it sometimes.

I use the slider because my mouse wheel is broken (at least when I scroll down). The map needs a revamp but this particular aspect is fairly innocuous.

On topic, options are the spice of life. Removing an innocuous feature is a step in the wrong direction, as enkelin stated. The map just needs to be worked on a bit; fully scalable in any direction.

Not everyone plays with a mouse, dick.

This suggestion seems borne of an inability to cope and just dumb stubbornness :-/

I like this map a lot. I hated it at first but all the bugs are gone now

Mine is still super buggy. When I blow it up to full screen gal graphics and their actual position on my screen can be off by enough to make the large map unusable due to my screen not being big enough ^^

As mentioned, we either need a slider, or +/- buttons for those without a scroll wheel.

I'm not positive, but you might be able to do a skin that removes it. You'd have to look at the XML for that dialog.

I already looked, you can't.

The galaxy_map.xml file species the customWindow that surrounds it, and the header text. Then has a child element which is the map. All the buttons on the map are coded into the client. The map is also static in it's size (you can't rescale the window, like you can others) since the size is set by the buttons on the top left.
