This UI change basically changes the "telling" to work similar to how it always worked in NWN1. You click on the player's portrait (here simply the line they spoke) in the chat, and then enter what you would like to tell them.
I always thought that right-clicking through the context menu of the Player List or even the chat box was WAY too cumbersome...so here's the solution. :)
This package will also provide a small "tweak" to the chat box to make it take up less space. This is accomplished by putting the Talk/Party/Whisper/Shout buttons on top diagonally and fading them out for even less clutter on the screen. The scrollbars are on the right since it just feels better that way.
Helpful Tip: Use the right-mouse button to "Save As" when downloading, otherwise your browser may try to open the files instead.
A major issue I have that if you have the chat window shrunk small, anything that you type that runs past the edge jumps to the beginning of the chat line instead of expanding into a new line below. This is very troublesome for tells, etc. or any kind of longer message.
Other than that, the mod is nifty. Only way I could see it improved is if there were a way to make tabs for different chat windows, each customizable so you could have a window just for tells, one just for DM chat, etc.
Gosh! I could have sworn I typed the install instructions to the description but seems I forgot after all! Adding them now. :) _________________________ Logical arguments tend to favour those who have much faith vested in them. Often accompanied by an epic skill to resist the arguments against.

Really nice, you only forgot to add install instructions. Some files seems to be the same, I'm quite lost? What goes on UI folder and what goes on override?
Thanks
