    Party List - Flip/Align

    I'd like to be able to align, or flip, my Party List so that the names/bars are against the right side of the Party List Hud instead of starting from the left. Additionally, I'd also like to be able to adjust where the buffs/debuffs for each person goes (like align under or above).

    We already have an 'Align Bottom' for the Party List, so hopefully it won't be that much trouble to add the option so the can align to the right, or just 'flip'.

    Instead of: Health->Mana->Buffs -- I want -- Buffs<-Mana<-Health

    This would make eye tracking as a healer much quicker/easier. I really don't like having the list on the right side of my screen, otherwise I would just move it there and be done, but... I just prefer to have the Party List on the left because that's what I'm used to.

    Thanks!

    In re: Align Bottom, they implemented this option wrong, and it needs to be changed.

    When set to align to bottom, all it does is shift the entire party list down. This means that the party member in the anchor position--the bottom of the list--is not always party member 1. It's variable. This means you cannot align a hotbar to the party list to have party order-specific macros next to the correct party members in the party list.

    The align to bottom option should not just shift the party list down but cause it to grow upward. The bottom slot should always be 1/me.

    Given that they did the above wrong, I don't expect them to implement what you're asking for correctly unless we are more specific about how it should be implemented. An option that displays buffs to the left should also cause the priority buffs to be sorted toward the right. Just shifting the entire buff section as it is in the current layout is not enough.

    Yeah, basically I just want to flip the Party Menu entirely.

    Instead of being left aligned, and growing right, "H-M-B" it would be right aligned "B-M-H" and growing left; or literally just a 'flip' of the Party List window.

    As for buffs, I would want them growing outward to the left, from the MP bar, just as it grows right currently from the MP bar.

    I could absolutely see this being implemented because it's a simple option with not much adjustment to current programming. I'm all for giving players options to use things how it fits them best. \o/

    Agree with all of this but can we also have the ability to change the color of the party list from the default blue? I don't use blue for the party name plates, it would be nice to have the option to change the list color as well

    Bumping this since I'd also like to request the same thing. Would make healing a bit easier.
