One small change that would make me incredibly happy

I used Profit for years before moving to Drums, and now I am really happy with it, except for one really small thing... when you AFK on Profit, you get a fancy little red AFK tag over your name in the mini target window (the Self > Target > Implied window), so it was easy to tell if your AFK was up or not. I miss that so much. Since switching, at least once a week I leave my afk tag up for hours at a time without realizing it lol! Any chance this could be added?

Sure, I'll write it down. I'm working on updates this week.

oh please separate player window types as variations too, or once defined, selected style be default so that it doesn't creep up its location.

Could you reword this? I'm not sure what you're asking for here.

when the game loads up for first time of session, it starts up with default "percent and numbers".

after the game finish loading, the player UI remembers my setting and changes into "current health" version.

because the UI had started with percent & numbers(tallest among 3 versions), current health version ends up showing up little higher than my setting.

if i relog or /load_uisettings the same toon, UI shows up fine with its location but numbers are cut still tho.

also in current health version, its health and power numbers
aren't displayed right, for example, when i have 59999 HP and 48888 power, it shows like 59999 HP, 48888 power with the 5 and the 4 cut half vertical, left side invisible, in display
(with smooth font enabled, small sans disabled). resizing player window doesn't fix its number showing weird.

if i disable smooth font, i can see numbers fine but its hard on eyes

im hoping that update comes addressing problems of player window or at least made 3 versions separate preferences.

at least im not alone on this window moving issue tho. i can find few others with same issue.

I even back up and save the ui file and it still seems to move a little after reload.

So annoying. I'm not sure it has anything to do with DrumsUI, though it is the one I am using.

Thanks.

and if you look individual piece support forum, under player window's last 3 posts.

oh and thanks for reply, drums!
if you need pics, i can post em later.

Pictures would help indeed.

I've heard reports of people's window's not keep their location between sessions, but I'm not sure this is a UI mod problem. I think it's more of a XML/SOE coding issue. But possibly something I could help tweak.

Personally, I never experience windows misbehaving in location/size outside of the Beastlord hotbar
