    Option to Rotate Gauges

    With the coming of class gauges it was once again time to edit my HUD to make space on the screen for the neat little feature. However, changing from class to class I've noticed many of them tend to be largely vertical or horizontal. While vertical gauges fit into the space I've made horizontal ones tend to overextend the space at default size, thus forcing me to make them much smaller. The end result is a nice and smooth looking HUD while in classes with vertical gauges and a clunky and ant-sized bump in my HUD for any classes with horizontal gauges.

    The solution is quite simple, allowing players to choose between horizontal or vertical. While another option would be allowing for players to rotate them 360° I imagine this would be rather unneeded/underutilized.

    Thanks for reading!

    I'd love this for Red Mage, as I have my white/black spells vertically on my controller.

    Being able to change the orientation of the gauges would be nice, as well as being able to mirror the gauges.

    I'm hoping they job gauges are still just in their infancy and we will see a lot of changes incoming, because the idea behind them is solid, but the execution for some classes is severely lacking.

    Oh yeah be nice if some if them flipped horizontally depending if you put them on the right or left side of the screen.

    Vertical ones would also be nice
