    I've used every "trick" yet I cannot move or edit most of the hud even with a controller.

    I'm missing so many elements its basically unusable. I had it somewhat ok before they updated the UI now its a mess.

    Hello,

    I understand your frustration. I do not own a VR-glass, but I do understand your frustrations. This issue comes up so and then. The devs are aware.

    You wrote you tried everything in the book, have you tried to disable or enable the beta hud, move your widgets around, and then disable or enable it again. A friend of mine pointed out this worked for him.

    Thank you very much,
    Marius

    I play exclusively in VR and getting to be able to touch some elements of the ui is solely dependant on the screen resolution selected, I always use 720p as my in game resolution on my 3440x1440 monitor and can't touch some elements at all, but if I set to 3440x1440 i can edit them all, then change back to 720p. But it is buggy and sometimes I can't get it to lock back into 720p.
    It's a weird issue.

    Hi Marius can you explain more in detail what you mean here as this isnt something I think i heard. P.s. I have trieds switching the UI back and forth but editing the old UI now is not as easy as it was before the switch (for some reason)

    So you edit them on your monitor not in VR?
    I run my monitor at 720p in VR fyi. This doesnt help adjusting it in VR for me

    You need to first set the VR hud on your monitor in its native resolution. If you reduce the monitor - to save resources, say from 1440p down to 1080p - then you will not be able to grab the elements in VR as the monitor screen is too small now to fit everything and your mouse will fall off the screen, even though it looks like you can grab them in the VR screen. Once you have done this, then you can then reduce the monitor down. Also you can resize the elements by using a keypad to fit them on your VR screen.
