Command Panel Feedback

[Esmoire]

Hey folks. Thought I would get a thread started for the new Command Panel feature. For the most part, I like it, and it's worked out as advertised. I was able to get rid of a lot of my macros. I am sure I will think of more feedback, but for now, I only have one item.

We should have the option to use a separate Command Panel for PvP, kind of like how hotbars change in PvP. Before patch, I used a key to open a hotbar to quickly communicate strategic information for shotcalling PvP. After the patch, while I could make room in my command panel for a separate page for PvP, I would really like an option to change my command panel for PvP. If you want to really impress us, let us choose which pages change for PvP. So maybe I can have page 1 swap, but the others retain their PvE functionality.

I would like the option to make it transparent completely apart from the buttons.

Thank you for this thread! It's a great new feature but it has room for improvement. I agree whole heartedly with the ability to make the frame/background completely transparent. It would help it feel less unnecessarily wide.

The first thing I can think of is being able to pin it so that it stays visible(and possibly in one spot) until you click the x to close it rather than it closing with various interactions and use of the escape key.

It'd also be fantastic to have the option to change the shape/layout of the slots like we can normal hotbars. So something like 10x2(vertically and/or horizontally) or even just one long string of 25 slots that can be tucked to the top/bottom/sides of the screen. Basically add some flexibility in how we arrange it with the rest of our UI.

Lastly, allowing for a more expansive list of icons that can be used for the 4 page buttons. Unless I'm missing something, the icon for each panel can only come from the icons of items in the panel but, you can't use icons of macros. A popup like macros have with a bunch of icons to choose from(in addition to the right clicking a button in the panel) would be great.

So for the moment, I'm just adding it to my macro hotbar menu.

/micon "Attack Target" general
/hotbar display 7 off
/commandpanel

I do hope we get /on and /off subcommands as a result so I can use it in tandem with my other macros.

I would like to be able to adjust the layout of the buttons.
The new command panel is only five buttons across on each tab.
I was previously using UI bars before that, and have them set as 6x2 - six buttons across on two rows.
Being able to adjust the button width and rows would be really nice.

I would also like to be able to lock the panel in place so I don't accidentally drag it somewhere.
