The pop up action bar system is so frustrating.

All I would ask like others is to have the option to toggle on or off the three actions bars (Normal / CTRL / ALT) so I can have all three visible all the time (no pop up). There is unneccessary processing being done to redaw these elements on screen which can never be good and this is happening a lot when you are getting into the high levels and using abilities from every bar.

Macros cannot be assigned to the main bar so usually have my heal (with aoe toggle) on a macro, given that is one of the most used spells for a mage I'm bouncing between the main bar and the ALT bar all the time during a fight and to be honest its frustrating more than anything else.

When I press ALT / CTRL the system shouldn't have to be wasting cycles working out which bar is on screen and then wasting GPU cycles processing the slide up animation of the bar. Just keep the bars on screen if I want to and lets have a much more responsive system.
