Please, I would like to change the size of the pitch in match screen. How can I do it? Maybe just editing screens\match.xml?
I guess I can follow some little guide about xml editing, so I've done it sometimes.
I use "full screen" mode of Turnstyle screen, but this lets me far from quick tactics.
Thank you.

Maybe at least two words here? I can try things by myself, but don't even know where to start.

Don't think you can edit the pitch (I've not seen any edited pitches), your best bet is to scan through some of the xml files and see if anything looks like it's to do with the pitch.

You can change the pitch dimensions for each club in the editor. (You could in FM2005, should still be in FM2006).

I can't understand this. There are skins with "full screen", so pitch is resizable when skinning. And I took measures from different skins' pitches and they are different as well.

What are you trying to edit/do?

The pitch automaticly streches to the edge (or certain point) of the main screen container, it may be possible to adjust the pitch by editing this bit of code found in the match.xml file located in data\screens (I'd advise you to back the orignal file up before editing):

<pre class="ip-ubbcode-code-pre">&lt;container class="titled_box" title="Pitch" id="hilg"&gt;&lt;layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" layout_children="true" inset="0"/&gt;&lt;widget class="hilg" title="Pitch" id="hilg"/&gt;&lt;/container&gt;</pre>

Try changing the 0 to 100 or -100 to see if the pitch moves (sometimes theres code elsewhere that will over ride this), if the game crashes with a serious error warning copy back the orignal file.

Thank you, now at least I have a clue.

That has a effect really. Not that much I was expecting, but at least pitch is bigger now. It becomes more large inside a like "window", and now I can't see the whole dugout, but so what!
Thank you!
