Alright, searched around and checked the index, and didn't see anything like this. Apologies in advance if I missed it.

Basically, what I'm suggesting is a way to drag a meter from, say, the Titles section in the [H] Window, out onto the main screen so it could be viewed/checked in a single glance, without having to keep the whole [H] Window open or keep opening it and looking for the bar in question. What I'm envisioning is being able to drag all the different Faction Bars out at the user's leisure, and all the different Title bars, as well as any other of these "meter" type bars, though I couldn't find any others not already part of the UI.
Hope this makes sense!

That sounds interesting, so what you're suggesting is that I could (for example) drag my Balthazaar and Luxon faction out of the H menu and place them on the screen, say underneath my exp bar? I can see where this could come in handy a bit, especially when going for cartographer. I would enjoy being able to take ____ exploration title track and place it where I didn't have to keep my Hero menu open to see when I got my next .1%

You might as well ask them to hide the H popup's picture + name + etc. so that it only shows titles/faction

That would be somewhat different.. I don't mean dragging the whole set of all Title or Faction Bars out, but a single bar (or more than one, of course, but you'd be able to do it individually) that would act like the experience bar does now, like Clawdius is saying.

I really like this idea. It'd make keeping track of my titles/faction so much easier, and a hell of a lot more convenient.

Hehe it's interesting. Not a HUGE necessity I must say but a very nifty idea, so /signed for niftyness.

Yeah I really have nothing to say except that I like that idea. I'd like to keep a few title bars around my EXP bar.

You can already do it with the menu, so why not

Very cool idea!
Having a small bar of a chosen title visible would be in most cases much more useful and cool than having an exp bar. Searching for a title in that huge unsortable 'H' window list is very annoying, and there are many titles i would like to have displayed all the time on screen, like Balth faction while pvping or Exploration% while exploring.

This is one of the few good ideas I've heard in a while, definitely signed. I'd like to see my balthazar faction up on the screen when I fight along with a gladiator title or whatever depending on where I am. /Super Signed

This would be awesome. My screen res is pretty big but having stuff open a lot does tend to get in the way. Sometimes I play with chatbox up, inventory open, hero screen open, u-map open, as well as party window, skill bar, etc. Half my screen gone. :S

I'd love to be able to drag down a progress bar for map exploration or whatever. At the moment my title I'm working on is at the very bottom of the H screen. Which means if I want it out of the way and keep closing it, I have to scroll every time I want to recheck. (Meanwhile, I swear the title screen needs some sort of sorting function).

Really good idea!

Just a point of inquiry, but does having signatures ever get anything done by A.Net?
