I really like the extra information that pops up when pressing the left control button, tied to “Show Enemy Names”. I use it a lot for seeing crafting materials in my peripheral view and finding heart quest items. However, you need to hold down the button to keep the information visible. This sometimes causes me to accidentally send messages instead of using skills. Is there a view to enable “Show Enemy Names” always (e.g. ore veins always show name)? I apologize if this is a basic option but I was unable to find it.

Bind it to a key like F12 – any key that doesn’t affect other keys – and use a program like AutoHotKey to modify the key’s behavior to toggle the key rather than press it. This will keep the key pressed until you press the key again. If your keyboard supports macros, a simple key down macro will do.

It’s called Show Enemy Names under keybindings, but it has the added bonus of showing object names, which isn’t available under the options.

All names on all day long, it’s really the best way to play. Cluttered as hell but there’s something nostalgic about it…
