When ever I'm playing on my monk I want my interface set up a certain way that allows me to see my parties health bars, my skills, my energy bar and whatever else I want all close to each other so I set up my interface that way. Now when I'm on my warrior I dont give a care about some of that stuff, like my energy or other peoples health cept my enemies. So I set up my interface another way that lets me get a better view of the battle field.

I dont know how many people care about their interface but I thought it would be cool if we could save our interface as a template so depending on witch character we are playing we could load the interface template we like to best use for them.

Im not sure how feasible this is, or how many care I just thought it would be a nice addition to GW or GW2 if anets going to use the "no time, need to work on GW2"

What are your thoughts, comments?

This would be incredibly useful, especially if you want to try out different interfaces without risking ruining the one you currently have. Also, you can send out the code to someone else to give them an idea of what yours is like.

No reason not to. If utility programs like GIMP or whatever let you save layouts and arrangements and whatever, why not Guild Wars? Would be handy, would harm no one, and couldn't be that hard to manage; Accounts already store that info, you just can't save multiple versions of it.

Example: Try logging in to someone else's account (if possible) or a second account (if you own one), change the layout of the UI and go back to the first account.

/signed, though not hopeful with all that work being done on GW2, but meh.

I was playing on my (short lived) monk this past week and it would have been really handy to swap out my GUI for a more monk friendly interface than a fighters inerface.

actually tried some different interfaces last week, didn't work out for me. I couldn't remake the original one so I'm stuck with the unmodded again. I want to be able to experiment with different styles of playing, interface included!

Hey, they could be saved as files with the other templates, and people could share them too.

- Hey, try this for 1600 1200.
- Works nice! Thanks!
- Cool.
