I wish I could...

[Ortrillian]

..put labels on my bags that are in the bank. So I could see that Pelts are in this bag and celestial essences are in that bag etc.

Also, I wish that the bank had an auto equip. That way I could just drop items in there and they would automatically go into any partial stacks I might have already.

Oh, and I wish that the bazaar function had a list of my most frequently searched items so that I could just hit a button and it would search for all those items at once. Too many Post-It notes all over my monitor to remind me what I want to look for.

Oh, yah and I wish that the search function in the baz would stop sorting potions and spell/song scrolls as items with effects when you can already search for those items independently from other effect items.

AND I wish I could get a job as an EQ telecommuting developer!

[Panamah]

I second that wish list!

[Furyrpied]

the auto equip (or auto stack as it would be) for bank slots would be a freaking dream.... went through my trader sachels to find i had 3 different stacks of dire wolf fur tuffs.. and only one of them full....

*sigh*

I got a better idea, when you right click the bag for information, have it show a complete inventorid list

UI mod can be made that adds a label to each slot above the bag slot. Easy to do if you know the code. You can even seperate sections, combine the expanded section, etc. EQ Interface already has a few made this way.

Organizing your bank (and mules - yes, you know you have another account full of tradeskill mules) SUCKS big time. It's one of the main reasons why I just don't think I could ever come back. It just takes forever...and heaven forbid if you move something. I remember thinking I lost a whole bag of high end gems (at the time), blue diamonds, etc. - turns out I had just moved them.

ugh.

oh yeah! auto-equip spot for the bank! woohoo!

heck, make an auto-equip spot that sorts to any character on my account!

I have a note on my monitor to remind me that Ylaani is my spell research and pottery mule, Zentika handles tinkering and brewing, and kidari manages the overflow smithing and baking stuff for my 2 mains, who handle most of their own smithing and baking stuff.

must say though, the shared bank spots did make my life MUCH MUCH easier, and shared plat is ... woot!

ps: i can't believe how fast i filled up the doubled bank space >< but at least my husband has most of his own bank space back!

One more item I wish to add to the wish list is the ability to lock the position of open containers.

I have all my bags neatly laid out on different parts of the screen when they are all open. It drives me crazy when a mis-click on one of the bags moves them out of position.

One more item I wish to add to the wish list is the ability to lock the position of open containers.

you can do this yourself. Right click on the container window and there should be an option in that list that says "lock". Click on it and voila! you now cannot move that bag. To unlock it, do the same thing. Locked windows will have a star next to the lock option and non-locked windows won't have that star.



If you want to cut down on the in-game clicking (kinda odd to say that to a tradeskiller ), you can modify your UI files directly. It's just as much a pain, just less mouse clicking Open your UI_Character_##.ini file and do a find on "Locked=", after each one change the false to true. Or you can just do a replace function with "Locked=false" to "Locked=true". Don't try to shortcut and just replace false with true, because other stuff uses that word and you'll be an unhappy camper

You have to do this with each characters file and it will make all the windows be locked. You always have the option to unlock them in game though, so no worries.


Ta da!!! clutz proof windows!

[Ndaara]

my "lock" option is greyed out in all my bags. has been ever since this whole UI thing started. i've wondered what that was for ever since! i think i use 3 mods, none of them to bags though. any ideas why my lock is inaccessible?

[Arista]

I use this container mod, which removes the edges from bags so that you won't accidentally move them while clicking. I do a lot of tradeskilling, and this mod works great for keeping bags in place.
