all 3 actionbars visible

Werent we gonna get the option to have all 3 actionbars visible or was that only talks? i really would like this.

2.0

Hmm how do I get 10 characters for a reply?

/10cha?

/10cha

In 2.0 and hopefully it's optional for those that want it xD.

Optional {Yes please.}

I like the minimalist UI we have, so if they continued that it'd be excellent. Even now we have it as optional to have the action bar up all the time or not, and I always have mine down. Don't need to see that stuff all the time.

I'm totally for having it available for people who want it though.

beyond 2.0 this is supposed to be possible.

There easily managable now, this is how I do it.

Action bar 1 is in view all the time and is where I have my most used actions. This is full.

Action bar 2 is my lesser used actions, which is also full. I have these on my alt macros.

Action bar 3 has the rest of my actions, which I rarely use, it only has a few on I have these on my ctrl macros.

Then there is plenty of space on ctrl for my job changes.

I would like to have another battlemenu UI.
I want to see the PS3/Gamepad version :O

I see, thanks for the replies peeps.

I am hoping for a really useful pop-up bar style. For example
Bar 1 - Always visible, 10 actions.
Bar 2 - Hidden, 10 actions
Bar 3 - Hidden, 10 action

Holding Left Shift - Makes Bar 2 Visible
Holding Right Shift - Makes Bar 3 Visible

Pressing a number while holding a shift activates that action. For example:
No Shift + 8 = Action 8
Left Shift + 8 = Bar 2's Action 8
Right Shift + 8 = Bar 3's Action 8

This way you can easily see the timers on all the actions, and quickly hit it.

Then we can move onto macros:
ALT 1-0 (like we have now)
CTRL 1-0 (like we have now)
ALT+CTRL 1-0 (10 more macros)
ALT+SHIFT 1-0 (10 more macros)
CTRL+SHIFT 1-0 (10 more macros)

That way we have access to 50 macros (without having to cycle through macro bars). In combination with (SHIFT) 1-0 (which gives us 30 more actions) we would be able to invoke 80 actions with a single key-combination.

(Unlike having to cycle through action bar or macro bars which do not count as a single-key combination).

And 80, should be enough to be getting on with ^.^;
PLUS, with this layout, we would only need to SEE one bar at a time on screen (thus saving screen space).

hmm when i see the screenshot for 2.0, there are two screen shot that show you can either have only 1 action bar or 2 action bar or 3 and more.. so i think is customizable :)
