Yes, the title is quite convoluted.

To be clearer:

Under Character Configuration, UI Settings, HUD, we have the possibility to tick "Displey only detrimental effects you inflict". This is nice if you want to keep track of your dots at a glance.

However, it seems that this setting does not carry over to the focus bar. This is quite annoying since some people (yes, like me) use <tt> macros to cast dots on an enemy, without having to actually target the boss - having only the Focus Bar as reference.

Would it be possible to make the focus bar share the settings of the target bar? :/
