    Cool Locking hotbars, can this be fixed, please... please... please!!!

    Hotbars do not entirely lock down when the UI options to lock the toolbars is selected. Currently when displaying more than one hotbar:

    • Items can be (re)moved while they are 'locked'. Items can usually be moved once, but after they have been moved they are truly locked down the way they should be.
    • The hotbars themselves can be moved while 'locked'. One side of the hotbars always allows moving the hotbars while locked, on horizontal bars this is the bottom edge, on vertical bars this is the left edge.

    When we lock the hotbars, can they be made to be truly locked? Can't be moved, and items can't be (re)moved. This locking seems to work for the primary hotbar but not for any other un-stacked hotbar. Due to this, the behavior I’m seeing seems unintentional, so is likely a bug.

    I hate either dragging items off my toolbars, or moving them all over the place when I didn't want to. As I've played this has only gotten more annoying.

    PS: I'd also like to see a way to enable snapping of UI elements to each other, so that they don't overlap, and the edges line up, and a way to lock all UI windows... and a way to scale all the UI elements. Since its near Christmas, and I'm dreaming, I might as well get these out.

    Agree. When I lock down a hot bar, I want it to stay locked, and not lock only after I moved something I did not mean to.

    ANd Open up the other 10 hotbars for offical support. Its a pain to have to open up and relocate my 11+ bars every time I log onto my clerics.

    I also find it annoying when I accidentally grab a hotbar and move it, despite it being locked, in the middle of a battle.

    I would also love to see more hotbars supported. 10 is not enough !!!

    More weapon sets OR making hot bars slots capable of working like weapon set slots. (and more not bars too!)

    On a side topic, how do I control which hotkey bank is "active"

    Example, when I hit 3, it casts spell 3 on hotbar 1.

    I then scroll through hotbar 2 (using the arrows) to switch it to hotbar 5.

    Now when I hit 3, it casts spell 3 on hotbar 5...

    Please please please implement a real UI lock. I hate having to rearrange my screen after a big fight, not to mention being unable to find something in the middle of a battle because it moved or was deleted from a hotbar by accident.

    Thumbs up Yes please!

    Signed!!!

    In fact, make it so that "EVERYTHING" on that screen can be locked down!!!

    Nothing is more annoying then to be in the middle of a big battle and you accidently grab the dice or one of your chat screen tabs and drag it to the middle of your screen blocking your view!

    I don't even know where my dice are anymore. They were randomly grabbed and put off the screen or behind something else and I gave up trying to find it.

    I would love to see this fixed.

    Your UI never gets moved around or messed up when you are just lazily meandering through a quest.

    It happens when you are in the midst of a huge fight, spells going off everywhere, people deing and getting eaten. Then you lag just as you hit a spell and it pops it off your hot bar! ARG! Or moves it over another one and screws them both up. Not good and no fun!

    Please fix it. When you lock down the UI, make it ALL lock down.

    That would be grand.
