Settings

Settings is split into tabs so each group is a click rather than a scroll. The last tab you were on is remembered.

  • Goals — turn goals on or off.
  • Optional Addons — pick a gold price source, choose Auto / TomTom / the client's map pin for Waypoints, see whether HandyNotes has a notes pack, and which addons Lodestar detected as loaded (green) or not loaded (grey).
  • Reputation — expansions, categories, and individual factions. See Reputation.
  • Appearance — theme and colours. See below.
  • CompactCompact Mode toggles, not the colour picker.
  • Layout — window size and position, not goals.
  • Changelog — the last five versions.

Themes

  • Blizzard uses the client's own frame art (the modern panel style Dragonflight introduced) and Blizzard's real font colours. If a client ever stops offering that art, the theme falls back to a flat frame in the same colours instead of rendering without a border.
  • ElvUI reads ElvUI's backdrop, border, status bar texture, and font when ElvUI is loaded. If ElvUI's border is near-black (the default), Lodestar uses a lighter grey so panels stay visible.
  • GW2 UI uses GW2 UI's gold and font when GW2_ADDON exposes them. Auto follows GW2 UI when that addon is loaded.
  • RealUI reads Aurora.Color when Aurora is there. Auto follows RealUI (nibRealUI) when it is loaded. A near-black Aurora border falls back to a lighter grey.
  • Ellesmere and Minimal are standalone palettes.

/ls theme auto follows GW2 UI, RealUI, ElvUI, or Ellesmere when loaded. blizzard, elvui, ellesmere, gw2, realui, and minimal also work. Changing themes prints nothing.

Colors

Settings → Appearance lists every colour the interface uses — accent, text, background, panels, cards, borders, warnings, and muted text. Clicking one opens Blizzard's colour picker.

Your choices override whatever the theme resolved to, including ElvUI's live media, and survive switching themes. Rows you have changed are marked. "Reset colors to the theme" drops all of them at once. Colours you have not touched keep following the active theme.

Window

Drag the frame to move it. Drag the grip in the bottom-right corner to resize it. Size and position are saved. Escape closes the main window; compact mode stays up.
