OD......reasonable request. The devs have made, I guess, a perfect dial size for the average user (for me at least)...keeping in mind those who need glasses vs those who don't....I can't imagine trying to reconcile all those variables. Perhaps a new Workshop setting for the "challenged"....like me. Think of the amusing possibilities! From dumb/blind to sharp/still got it. I, for one, am right in the middle of that curve, fading toward the downslope, and look forward to seeing, or not so well, what comes next. BTW....love your add-ons. Thank You!!!

I've resized the TAC so that it fits directly on top of the compass by going into the ViewUI.xml and changing the value for BGScale for the tacticaldisplay. I just tried to do the same for one of the other gauges, which doesn't have an entry for BGSCale. so I put one in, and set it for .5; the results are shown below. Obviously you need to do something with the needle, which does have a "size" entry, with two values listed, but I'm out of time right now.
