Hidding Interface - Guild Wars Forums

Koryon · Jul 29, 2005, 04:40 PM // 16:40

Hi all, I have a question !
So, there is this option right, to hide the interface.
No button has been assign to this command.
So I assign number 5 NUM (num pad).

But when I try it, it doesn't work !!
What's the point of having a command that doesn't work !?!?!?

How does this work ?!!??!
Do you know how to hide the interface ?

Tks

i believe it was preset to ctrl-shift-H.

if you're just to take screenies, just hold shift and press print screen and the shot will not have the interface in it. save you extra key strokes.

Ctrl+Shift+H is the default to remove the interface, but you may have reassigned it- try that. The same combo brings it back.

NOTE: you can hide the interface just for screenshots by holding Shift while hitting PRTSCR (Print Screen)- you'll see the interface flicker for a moment and when you check your screenies you'll see that it's not there.

I have the opposite problem - whenever I take a screenshot the interface hides itself - is there anyway to keep the interface when taking a screenshot?

You mean, eventhough you ONLY press the PrintScreen key it doesn't capture your interface? That's kinda odd. I don't remember any options in GW that would allow this to happen. Hmmm ...

Exactly - I only press print screen and I get a clean shot without any numbers or the interface. Every thread I check has people asking how to hide it.

I don't mind it much, but I can't show what skills I'm using etc. Also when I take a screenshot during a cinematic a geat a clean fullscreen shot - without the black stripes.

try shift+printscreen see if you can get the interface to show?

you must have set some shift-lock or something.
