Lower UI Scale is a lightweight addon designed for players who want precise control over World of Warcraft’s UI scale, especially on 1440p and 4K displays.
With the UI and Settings changes introduced in WoW 12.0, many older addons and WeakAura-based solutions no longer work correctly. Lower UI Scale provides a future-proof, standalone replacement that uses modern APIs only and avoids deprecated systems.
Features:
- Precise UI scaling using a slider with live preview
- Editable numeric input box for exact values (for example: 0.53)
- Preset buttons for quick selection, including a recommended default for high-resolution monitors
- Slash command support: /uiscale <value>
- Settings panel located under ESC → Settings → AddOns
- Instant application with values saved between reloads and logins
- Lightweight, no dependencies, no taint
Recommended Default:
- 0.53 – optimized for 1440p and 4K displays
Safe Range:
- 0.40 to 1.00 (values outside this range are automatically clamped to prevent UI issues)
Why use this addon?
- Does not rely on WeakAuras
- Fully compatible with WoW 12.0+ Settings changes
- Simple, focused design that does one thing well
- Easy to adjust and safe to recover from if misconfigured
Slash Command:
/uiscale 0.53
