<p>The recent additions to the UI have me wondering:</p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>Any chance we'll ever see an in-game swing meter put on the Default UI?</strong></span></p><p>I know there are outside-party UI's that have a swing meter, and there's even a Swing-meter only that I found at one point. I don't really care for using third party stuff, personally, and the swing-meter add on has issues at times.</p><p>So, I'd *REALLY* like to see this added to the default UI, as it's a pretty important tool.</p><p>Any chance?</p>

<p>Ok, so I totally saw that coming.. I even figured a picture of Austin Powers with his arm as a pointer might happen. <img src="/eq2/images/smilies/97ada74b88049a6d50a6ed40898a03d7.gif" border="0" /></p><p>Call it a hit-meter if you like, but you know what I'm talking about!</p>

Like the compass, for example.</p>

<p>I keep getting told to post in the Look and Feel section of the forums when I have UI issues, since that is where the people responsible for it are sure to see it.<img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>

It's not really an 'issue,' per se.. since this isn't something I'm asking to have fixed.</p><p>Just a suggestion to the powers that be, since a lot of players go to a third party site to get this feature. It's a biggie, and it's something that would be a <em>lot</em> better off as a standard feature that really works 100% with the game.</p><p>I've never been a fan of having to use Custom UI's. I like the way the EQ2 version looks and operates, and this is the one feature of Profit or some others that I just can't do without.</p>

<p>Cloudrat...</p><p>You gotta teach the OP on that post you linked how to make steps in the air to stand on due to she said you have to be REALLY TALL (or get lucky with monkeying with the camera angle) to put stuff on the highest shelf. All you "really" have to do is just build steps in the air until you're as high as you want to be and then do whatever you want with that shelf with it being on your level instead of above you <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>
