Raise the UI Mod 1.0

you know what in fact... you REALLY needed this! my laptop screen native resolution is 1366x768 so i set the custom resolution of SC4 to this but the task bar would cover up the name and settings and what not so i was forced to hide the task bar. but this helps alot cause i dont like hiding the task bar, thanks

I can't tell you how long I've been looking for a fix for this. No more sacrificing playability for windowed mode.

i dont need this i play in fullscreen.

great upload!! :)

i really need this mod bu i can't be able to make it works, just put it in plugins dir and modify the shorcut to get a 1920x1080x32 but the UI didn't raise...any solutions?

I love this mod!! A must have for those that play in a maximized window.

Thank you! I really needed this!

Nice mod. I had already shrunk my Win7 taskbar to half height so that I could see most of the city name, though it was still annoying. This allows me to see the whole bottom of the screen. Thanks!

Wow! I so needed this mod

I play SC4 on a 17 inch widescreen monitor & it's sett to 1400x900 & in windowed mode the UI is sunk 4 or 5 pixel height into the bottom of the screen Even when hiding the taskbar the UI is still sunk a bit so I need to "raise" the window by dragging the top of the window a bit up to hide the window border at the top. But doing this only frees up 3 pixel heights so the UI is still a bit sunk. This mod raises the UI a lot that I no longer need to raise the window Too bad this only affects the "build mode" UI & not the U-Drive it! UI noe if I can only find one that raises that up I'd be fully solved!

thank you love this mod

greaattt..very helpful

thank you

Back to DL again for my new SSD install, still one of the best and yet most simple mods

Thank you for making this. I absolutely needed exactly what this does. If there was an award for Mod of the Century this would be up there with the best.

I also would like to thank you for making this.  I was running in windowed mode and the task bar blocked the stuff at the bottom.  So I switched the auto-hide to on.  Well that made the bottom of the sim city window fall off the bottom of the screen so the menu was still obscured.  Luckily I found your mod.  Even after running it, some of the taskbar was still in the way, but that can be fixed by right clicking on the task bar and checking the box for small icons.  And now it fits perfectly.  It's nearly full screen this way, but I can still grab the top of the window if I have to get to my desktop.  Works really well.  Thanks again.

It is not for me, but it is good that you have taken the time to write a valid description (unlike some uploads).

this, and this works like a charm. especially great when trying out lots of other mods. well done(y)

Just what I needed!  Thanks for creating this handy little mod!

Should anyone wish to alternate between windowed and full screen, you might find my following tutorial of potential use:

Beware however, my method does require the use of command line (batch file) scripting...
