Can we decrease the font size of the damage that pops up during combat?

I'd already resized my entire game and it is perfect, only the damage is horribly gigantic, it covers almost my entire screen, I wish I could decrease the font size of it, and only it. Thanks!

    You can turn damage floaters on and off.

    If you are into puzzle solving, you can save the GUI as a text file and mess with the configuration in greater detail.

    Save a GUI file using /ui_save_file (file name here)
    Find the text file you created in your Neverwinter\Live folder.
    Open it with notepad and look for the bottom area that looks like this;
    pLooseUI
    {

    HUDOptions
    {
    Region Ground

    ShowOverhead
    {
    ShowEnemy OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_MOUSE_OVER_NAME, OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_TARGETED_NAME, OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_TARGETED_LIFE, OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_MOUSE_OVER_RETICLE, OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_TARGETED_RETICLE, OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_DAMAGED_NAME, OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_DAMAGED_LIFE
    ShowFriendlyNPC OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_MOUSE_OVER_NAME, OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_TARGETED_NAME, OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_MOUSE_OVER_RETICLE, OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_TARGETED_RETICLE
    ShowFriends OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_ALWAYS_NAME, OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_MOUSE_OVER_LIFE, OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_TARGETED_LIFE, OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_MOUSE_OVER_RETICLE, OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_TARGETED_RETICLE
    ShowTeam OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_ALWAYS_NAME, OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_MOUSE_OVER_LIFE, OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_TARGETED_LIFE, OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_MOUSE_OVER_RETICLE, OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_TARGETED_RETICLE
    ShowSupergroup OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_ALWAYS_NAME, OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_MOUSE_OVER_LIFE, OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_TARGETED_LIFE, OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_MOUSE_OVER_RETICLE, OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_TARGETED_RETICLE
    ShowPet OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_MOUSE_OVER_NAME, OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_TARGETED_NAME, OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_MOUSE_OVER_LIFE, OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_TARGETED_LIFE, OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_MOUSE_OVER_RETICLE, OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_TARGETED_RETICLE
    ShowEnemyPlayer OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_ALWAYS_NAME, OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_TARGETED_LIFE, OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_DAMAGED_LIFE
    ShowPlayer OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_ALWAYS_NAME, OVERHEAD_ENTITY_FLAG_TARGETED_LIFE
    ShowTeamDamageFloaters 0
    ShowAllPlayerDamageFloaters 0
    ShowHostileHealingFloaters 1
    }
    }
    eNotifyAudioMode Unset
    }

    Then reload the saved changes you make using; /ui_load_file (file name here)
    I have tried to insert font sizes in this area to no avail. It might be completely impossible to edit the size on our end.

    I would really like to be able to change the font size. I can do it in other games, and it helps to keep the screen clean while still staying informed.
    Please devs, give us the same options, that we have in the chat. Let us change size and color.
