IDEAS FOR RYZOM

Allow to reshape the action bars from 2x10 to other shapes, similar to the inventory window.

this would allow, for example grouping stanzas in 30 stanzas for diggers as 3x10, or a thin row of 1x10 for fighters, or similar.

Since all items on the action bar are accessible via number keys (1->0) and [shift]+(1->0), and this ability would mean that the accessibility would need to be re-programmed, I doubt that this will happen, ever.

I'm a little confused about needing a 3x10 window for digging, however, since my digging needs can be met with 4 actions unless I'm waiting for weather, in which case I use 5.  I do use 5 different bars (one for each ecosystem), but that's only because I'm lazy.

With proper jiggering of the second action bar and key bindings, you can emulate an effective 4*10 setup. Show Action Bar #2, map it so that you can use (for instance) Ctrl+(1->0) for the 1->0 actions on that second bar, and there's 3*10 right there.

Bitty - Some of us have a few more dig actions. I run a total of 10 if you count prospection and careplanning. One's UI needs vary depending on how they play and on persoanl taste.

Thanks.

I understand that I can access the primary action bar by key strokes. Only the currently selected 20 though.

It could be limited to the first 20 to be accessed by keystrokes.
Can the second action bar items be accessed with keystrokes? I do not believe so, or i just do not know how to.

The setup is different for all of us.

I like to have specialization for prospect & extraction for various things. Right there that are two rows filled. then add all the protective things like speed, inv, etc. now the second bar is also full.

It can.

Just from the title I thought first, this topic is about scaling the action bar/interface size. That would be very nice as well, because if the screen resolution is higher than full hd, the action bar size becomes really painful for your eyes.

My setup is a 9 button gaming mouse, on the extra mouse buttons:
1, 2, 5, 6, 8, t (auto-run), 0
So I can easily switch the bar/action set with my mouse wheel or by dragging the actions around on the bar.

My only other problem except the bars scaling, is that all my bars are full and I could use some more. :P
(1x magic, 1x melee, 1x rp, 2x craft, 5x dig)

I also like the idea of more customization options to the bar, but I only see a size scaling feature as really useful for me at the moment.

That is what I was hoping for. Instead of the fixed 2x10 size, allow me to change the shape of it, just like for inventory.
