Loadui settings and savehotkeys

[Cathall]

Have you ever thought about adding the ability to save/load your custom UI settings or hotkey settings? I think it maybe a good addition to the ProftUI Control Center ("PCC").

I know you have the Load UIsettings in there now but this will not see the custom ones I saved using the /save_uisettings command. Can the settings for the PCC button be modified to do so? (I have tried saving the settings using the eq2 naming convention but it did not show up in the PCC list.)

I use two different setups (meaning the hotkey lineup and the placement of windows) for when I play battlegrounds versus pve. I have these settings saved so when I go between the two I can quickly reconfigure. I also have different hotkeys for playing solo versus group and raid on my swash or tank vs dps on my brusier.

Right now I do this through saved macros so i manage. Just thought it maybe a cool feature for the ui.

How I use the settings:
Hotkeys:
To Save type: "/savehotkeys description.charactername"
To Load type: "/loadhotkeys description.charactername"

Uisettings:
To Save: "/save_uisettings description.charactername"
To Load: "/load_uisettings description.charactername"

/loaduisettings picks up up the files fine if they end in eq2_uisettings.xml.

The general format for naming ui settings files is

<servername>_<charactername>_eq2_uisettings.xml

The first two fields can actually be anything you like. Profit's default files take the form

ProfitUI_<resolution>_eq2_uisettings.xml

As long as the files follow this format, the /load_uisettings window will show them.

It would be nice if the Profit control panel had a button to save settings as well to load them.
