    Freyar, you are a godsend thanks so much for your patient and kind sharing. OK, got it re the map, and for helping me understand the scary HUD storage room I was afraid it might be like Fibber McGees' Closet and all come tumbling out. Your set up sounds very workable, i really dont need everything displayed all the time, mostly just the working tools and the fighting buttons. I wonder if making the Map and Chat box come and go on the fly is a worthy thing to ask the Devs for.... what do you think?

    One thing I noticed about hotbars is that when you switch classes your abilities swap out on the horizontal bars (obviously), but if you activate the vertical bars those don't. So you can drag your gear sets to those and have them always available when switching classes.

    I believe that's a per bar setting, by default horizontal bars swap with class while vertical ones don't. I believe you should be able to change this behavior for every bar.

    You can. By default, hotbars 4-10 are shared. You can edit which bars are shared and which are not. I can't remember if it's under System Config or Character Config though.

    I personally like that the Minimap and chatbox are both static. It would be a bit awkward to try and account for them aesthetically. At the same time, I wouldn't mind the option as that would offer others more flexibility.
