[Game Bugs] felt like the most appropriate place for this, since it’s software related.



Chat Window
———————————————————-
For the chat window, there are a lot of suggestions to be made.
Personally, I find the chat window quite hard to read and to keep track of. Which, for the largest part is simply due to the font used. But, then again, you get used to it.

Class colors however, would go a long way in recognising players in the blink of an eye, and are easy to implement.
And, an option to set key-words that automatically get highlighted in chats (such as your own name for example), would make it that much easier to not miss things.




The Black Lion Trading Company Window
———————————————————-
First of all; http://img11.imageshack.us/img11/1598/gw209u.jpg
For me, the chat window is cropped. The window seems to be just a few pixels too small, everything is sized-down, and, as a result, many of the letters or numbers are unreadable.
I understand that for some people it works fine though. For others, however, it isnt.
Working theory is that it has something to do with the UI scale settings. But regardless of that, it is especially strange because everything else is perfectly fine in terms of size.
In short, I’d like to suggest to just apply the window code all other windows use. Obviously this one is different, and it crops as a result.
(Maybe also give the coder who did the code for this particular window a firm talking, since fixed sizes are as basic as can get really.)




Mouse-over tooltips
———————————————————-
Not having to click a name to see their class or level (or what they’re scaled down to), but just seeing it in a mouse-over is a comfort of life thing I suppose.






That said, I was really happy to see that crafting now automatically checks your collections, and doesn’t require you to have every single thing in your inventory anymore.
It makes things that much more comfortable, and it is just simply beautifull.
