Hi,

Is there any reason why interface/keybinds are saved on the server side over the client side?

If not, it would be really nice to be able to save interface layouts and keybinds on the client side. As a person who plays multiple classes in pvp, I often have to re-arrange my interface according to what I plan on playing.

Thanks for reading.

I guess this could get a /sign because this is the only viable solution to it.

Yeah, I've said in many times in many threads.
There are Skill and Item templates.
So this would be a good new addition.
Each character would have its default file, and any would be able to load any of the files.
Each layout template would be saved as Character name.txt.
The current server-saved layout would be kept for when there is no file found in the Template folders.
And, of course, templates could be sent to chat via a 'preview' panel.

/signed under the condition that is has an option of being used. Personally, I would rather not choose to load my key binds and interface every time I make a new character. I use the same thing for all my characters. It would just be an inconvenience for me, whilst being useful to others.

/Signed.

It would benefit those who use different key binds for different characters, and those who would want to try out new keybinds. Same goes for interface.

PS: You can now make polls. USE IT!!!!!11!!11one!

/signed!!!!

This especially helps my situation wherein I play in my desktop @ 1440xsomething and I play in my laptop(since its only a Go6150) @ 800x600 so I can load the adjusted interfaces!

I do not like that, but this is a persnal choice. I play on 3 different comp so when I change it somewhere I like that it apply everywhere. I already hate the fact that builds are client side

/signed ftw. I need this. A mesmer layout needs to be completely different than a melee layout, imo.
