First off - LOVE the UI. Thanks so much for all the work you and the other modders put into it! I just started playing again after 10 months, and was very happy to find this UI. After playing EQ1 and always having to edit my own xml after updates because of slow authors, your auto-update is simply amazing! I also like that you can preview features before getting in game.

There are a few things I've noticed that I'm not sure if they're intended or bugs. I sincerely apologize if any of this is repeated. 16 pages is rather intimidating. *grin*

1 - When you open a new chat window by right clicking the window and pushing "New Chat Window" (as opposed to using tabs), the new window has no option to resize or move. The same thing happens if you try to move a tab out into it's own window away from the main chat window - it becomes stuck wherever you place it.

2 - There doesn't seem to be slots for food and drink in any of the inventory windows. I could equip food by right clicking it, but couldn't find where to un-equip it. I use different drink depending on what I'm doing, so the only remedy I found was to equip summoned drink when I'm online and don't want to waste the good stuff.

3 - There seems to be a bug when moving with your recipe window open. I would lag out and "warp" when trying to move. It would immediately be fine if I closed the window.

Also regarding this feature, I LOVE the sorting filter! Would there be any way to add a search function so that you could search for a certain recipe?

4 - The compass window seems to take up a LOT of room surrounding the compass. If the compass was on top of my screen, I could not click anything that was "beneath" it in a layered sense (I put my clock right next to it, for example, and couldn't move the clock even though both were clearly visible), without moving the compass, moving the other window, moving the compass back, and moving the other window where I wanted it. There seems to be a lot of "dead space" surrounding the compass for a couple of inches on each side. I hope that was clear, it's hard to explain.

5 - Regarding the Heritage quest info - I like it just where it is. I agree with the others that it's appropriate in the Journal because it's quest related. This is a feature my husband and I both adore, since we're so far behind after not playing for so long. All of your notes and quest info ROCK!!

*EDIT* Oh yeah, forgot an important thing!!

6 - The support ticket window in Help does not have a scroll bar. I'd submitted a ticket last night, and when I logged on this morning I had a CS response. However, I could not scroll down the window to view it. I had to un-install the help feature, use the default to see my ticket, then re-install it for all the cool info in yours!
