Small QoL Improvements

Can we get an option in the gear preview window to show a glamoured item's base appearance? (Essentially, preview what a Glamour Dispeller would do without using one?) I've got some items I've glamoured long enough that I've forgotten what they actually look like.

Until they add a button for this, you can search for the item, then use the chat link to preview it unglamoured.

You can do this now with the mass dispel feature they added in 4.3. Open the glamour plates menu and click the button next to the "10" plate and it'll bring up a dispeller feature and show you what the base appearance of your current glamours are.

SE shouldn't have any problem fixing this on PC, our ffxiv_DDMMYYY_HHMMSS.png is even less sortable. Come on, SE, you're a Japanese company, you already use the perfect YYYYMMDD order in everyday life, why aren't you using it on screenshots?

I was cleaning out the messages in my box (bah) just now.

Which brings me to my idea. Please devs, could you put in a option/button with moogle mail to allow a person to delete all open mail/already read mail at once? I think a lot of people that do not stay on top of it would appreciate that. ^^

I do this by another method: When you try on an item, it prints a line to your chat log that is like '[19:19]You try on the pair of mythrite goggles of gathering.' I right-click the item link in the chat log and try it on from there. It then displays the base item in the Fitting Room window rather than the glamoured appearance.

However, a button would be nice, too.

Hey, I left here:

http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...hysical-damage

a suggestion to make damage types (physical/magical) easy to recognize. This could be easily implemented by having the different types be of different colors in the enemies' cast bar. Further details in the link.

I have finally figured out that one of the things which has stopped me from doing the daily hunt marks is simply the interface for looking at the list of marks. The "stack of mark bills" in my Key Items is nice for immersion, but on a practical level I find it difficult to remember which marks I've completed, which I have left to do, and where I need to go for them -- especially since they are infinitely rotating. I would LOVE the option to "view all" - either summarized in a window like the hunting log, or just spread out over the screen somehow so I can see all the bills at once. Bonus if it can include the weekly B-rank in the list, too.

Simple Mode UI for more things
Only the job gauges have a simple mode, but I would love it if more things had the option to make the UI more uniform and clean. The first thing which comes to mind is having our personal Progress Bar match the look of when you're targeting someone and they cast something. I don't need the icon, I just want clean, simple bar, cast time, and maybe the name.

Event Icons
I feel like the icon above a quest giver's head should be noticeably different when it's for a limited time event, like the Make It Rain campaign going on right now. It's indistinguishable from every other quest, so it may be ignored by passerbyers. Maybe have it glow and have a small clock on it, in place of something like the + they sometimes have.

World select changes
It's a very minor thing, but I have to deal with it so often and find it annoying. Whenever I log into a different data center, it always takes me to the same character and it's not the one I play ever. I would love it if we have multiple characters on a DC in different worlds we could have a preferred one to start on. I only have characters on Cactuar and Siren for Aether, for example, so why aren't those two always at the top of the list, which seems to be ordered randomly every time, and starting at the one I played last?

But why? What system level keybinds would you change only for certain jobs?
