{
        "fieldName"                                "HudObjectiveIcons"
        "xpos"                                        "0"
        "ypos"                                        "0"
        "wide"                                        "150"
        "tall"                                        "50"
        "visible"                                "1"

        "icon_start_x"                        "5"
        "icon_start_y"                        "5"
        "separator_width"                "2"                // distance between the icons (including their backgrounds)
        "CornerCutSize"                        "0"
        "BackgroundOverlap"                "-1"                // amount the background overlaps the icons (width and height)


Change the size, "iconsize"        "24" change to "20  or "18  or whatever you want, within reason you can adjust to suit.


Positioning.

"wide" this value sets the width size for workable area you will allow the icons to fit in ... make the icon size big (say 50) and set "wide" at "150"... you will find the icons cut off! Standard is "600". I used "150"... because that's all I needed :)

"tall" Same as above but for the height size... standard is "200".

"separator_width"
controls the distance between the icons, use around "2" if you have no background a value of "5" is standard.

"icon_start_x" is the start point of where the icons will sit on the screen left to right. (their position is controlled all together as a block).

"icon_start_y" is the start point of where the icons will sit on the screen up and down. (their position is controlled all together as a block).


Change or Disable the Icon Background.

"BackgroundOverlap" "-1" This value hides the background under the icon, the standard is "4" so play around with it to suit.
