If this isn't a fixable issue, is there at least any sort of macro to be made to more quickly revert settings? Obviously there's no one quick fix, especially for more niche HUD elements like Logograms or Squadron Commands. But at the very least, for changing job gauges?

As is, if I swap to a job I haven't played in a bit, it's: Open System menu, open HUD layout, select gauge (and hope there's only one, fucks sake on the jobs with more...), open settings, switch job gauge back to Simple Mode, resize it down, save those settings (because it'd be too hard to incorporate the saving of those settings within overall saving the HUD layout....), relocate job gauge to preferred position, and save layout.

An awful damn lot of clicks that I'll probably have to repeat in a few months' time when I swap over again.
