Take note the adjustment values I'll post here are for 1080p resolution (1920x1080), the needed values for different resolutions may vary as an example 1280x768 would be GstRender.ScreenSafeAreaHeight 0.048000 GstRender.ScreenSafeAreaWidth 1.030000 Trial and error adjustments to find your preference This is how to do it: 1-Open Windows Explorer and Navigate to C:/Users/(user name)/My Documents/Battlefield 3/Settings 2-Locate the file "PROF_SAVE_profile" 3-Copy the file to another location as a backup-always backup your files before changing so you can quickly restore the original if needed. 4-Open "PROF_SAVE_profile" with Notepad 5-At the top of Notepad select "EDIT" then select "FIND" Enter "GstRender.ScreensafeAreaHeight" and change the value to 0.010000 (default 1080p is 0.950000) Now the very next setting to the right of those numbers is: "GstRender.ScreenSafeAreaWidth" (or you can click FIND again) change the value to 1.020000 (default 1080p is 0.950000) 6-Click File and Save7-Open game and Enjoy and open view of the Battlefield

Well kind of, what these settings do is they adjust the distance between each of the 3 objects. They are not specific to one object. You can not move the chatbox down and leave the minimap down. The minimap is connected to the hud. It adjusts the objects out to the edge (width) and then chatbox down (height) which moves the minimap/hud up. A value of about 0.400000 would have the chat box about a third of the way up and sitting on top of the hud as an example. Sorry Heff but I haven't found a whole lot to work with yet. An alternative would be to not move anything up or down and just adjust the width to at least push the chat box to the edge. EDIT: just confirmed it xCaliber those same values will work for 1680x1050
