Target nameplates

Hi! I’m posted this in the tech support thread and it was suggested I post here.

When I highlight targets, the nameplates used to get bigger. Sometime within the past couple days, the target nameplate stays the same size, just gets more light behind the name/bar. It’s such a small thing but it’s driving me nuts and affecting my gameplay. I disabled all add-ons (I thought it might be an ElvUI thing) but still had the same issue. I’m trying to go through settings and not seeing anything.

Has anyone else had this issue? Does anyone know what settings I should be looking for?

Thank you and sorry for the trouble!

Not home to look at cvars but this sounds like something a nameplate addon would do, so disabling addons wouldnt bring back this functionality.

Ya, I’m not seeing a CVar for nameplate target scale.

I probably should have mentioned the only nameplates getting larger when targeted were enemies with health bars. I’m pretty sure this is a default UI feature? (I’ve been playing exclusively with ElvUI so it’s been a minute.)

Thank you both for taking the time to respond :slight_smile:

Bumping this because I have the same issue.

to get the current value
/dump C_CVar.GetCVar("nameplateSelectedScale")

to set the value. default is 1.2 but you can change it as you want
/run C_CVar.SetCVar("nameplateSelectedScale",1.2)
