This is nice for mouse users, but could we please get controller access to it as well? When pressing the PS4 Touch Pad to cycle between HUD Components, this isn't currently among the HUD components included in the cycle. It would be nice if it were.

Currently, a controller user can only change this by going into the controler's "mouse mode", which is a lot more awkward than the way we can select other HUD components.

there's already too much crap to cycle through with the touch pad, and the direction is goes is a crapshoot.

just use the option button and push up to select the currency window.

that said, i WOULD appreciate the tabs being removed, because they're stupid/pointless. just make the damn window big enough for all the currencies.

It should probably be fairly late in the cycle priority, after the more common things like chat box, loot roll or commendation windows, buff bar, quest tracker, etc. But it could still be included in the list (probably just added at the end).

Oh, and the direction isn't really a crapshoot, as it always follows the same order. It just takes some getting used to to know what that order is. (The ordering seems to be a priority system that starts with the more commonly used features and goes to more seldom used ones. It'd be hard to do it by placement of where they are on the screen, since people can put things anywhere on the screen that they want and not everyone has the same layout.)

It's the left-click feature to open the currency window. That's not the one I'm asking for, as yes, it's easy to get to from the menu. The right-click feature that I asked to be given to controllers is the one that changes which currency is shown on the HUD. There's no other option for that except to go into mouse mode so that we can click on it.

I suggest a multi-currency mode, and make it configurable through the Character Config windows. For example, let us choose to display "123 Gil, 456 Seals, 789 MGP, 0 Law, 0 Esoterics" in one line as the gil hud element.

[ ] Right-click cycle gil display HUD
[ ] Display/Cycle the following currencies in the gil display HUD:
__ [ ] Gil [ ] GC Seals [ ] MGP [ ] Law [ ] Esoterics [ ] Allied Seals [ ] Centurion Seals

When right-click cycle is checked, then right click will cycle through the checked currencies. If right-click cycle is not selected, it puts the gil hud element into a multi-currency display mode that lists all the checked currencies in one line.
