Yep there is a few things like this, specialy with non english languages where the strings get longer. And if you look closely to your pict you can also spot a 1px vertical offset for the workshop button!

Thanks, it’s my dayjob to spot these things :smiley:

Oh my, I didn’t notice that offset, contrast is very low in there especially when it’s lower part of a screen (you can see this in most games by having either blank part of UI in there or with more complimentary colors with increased contrast, but that can cause eye problems - just remember when Blizzard had to change color of snow in Northrend because it caused player’s eyes to hurt) plus I always thought of that button being more important one and thought it was just ‘bigger’. :smile:

Still an issue in release 472…paging @sdee and @yshan

This is a complicated one. We need to decide how the unit frame should handle descriptions and also the possibility of too many commands that will crowd over the description. Anyway, design question! Needs design answers.

Reviving as this is still an issue. Something for @Sweet to think about :wink:!

I’ve added this to our backlog and it will be addressed it at some point.
