Better UI
Tired of using binoculars to play Europa Universalis 4? Did you break
your mouse wheel trying to access all options in the Diplomacy tab?
Worry no more… the best of both worlds is here. A spin-off from
the highly regarded BetterFont and BiggerDiplomacy mods, the
Better UI mod combines both and adds the following:
+ General adjustment of text and icon positions to better fit the Verdana fonts
+ A new topbar to account for a better agents display
+ Bigger diplomacy views adapted to the new Verdana fonts
+ Verdana12b fonts in main windows, plus other Verdana font sizes as per
the BetterFont mod.
Mod is optimized for resolution 1920 x 1080 (see below for 1600×900). It should perform as expected in similar or higher resolutions.
Ironman compatible, does not change the checksum.

ATTENTION 1600 x 900 users: Support for resolutions lower than 1080px has been abandoned. Changes are too many with every patch for me to be able to support more than one version (at least until Pdx hard-codes semi-dynamic windows completely).
Some people have manifested an interest in "more immersion-creating" fonts, so I add this file to make the mod use the Georgia fonts instead of the Verdana. The fonts themselves are already included in the mod, so those of you who are interested just need to replace core.gfx inside /BetterUI/interface with the file from the next download link (you don’t even need to rename it, just replace the files). Some misalignments may occur, as the mod is optimized for Verdanas:

Full credits to the authors of the original mods, Impi07 and zebez, for their work has become the foundation of this.
