Saving an interface

[soulcoffin]

Hello people,

Can someone explain how I can save a different interface for each toon. It seems when I try to do what I think is a unique
UI, it goes back to the default. Maybe I am missing a step.

Thanks in advance

Are you using the default UI? I only ask because saving may be completed differently for different UI systems. A </help> in the chat window should bring up at least how to access any add on help menus.

I'll share what I can from memory, but I'm rusty in this area: take heed!

I was never successful saving a new UI under the current (one i'm logged in on atm) toon's "given" name. I had to add a character to the name, e.g., <________1>, or <________a>, etc. and make a new save. I would then switch to the newly saved UI, relog (as explained below), ensure that my UI was set to the new map, then ***(AND I DON'T RECOMMEND YOU DO THIS)*** I would simply delete the "server-given" UI name. That appears to cause a host of problems, so KEEP the ORIGINAL UI for each toon given you by the server. Just don't use it!

On the next successive log in immediately after saving the remapped UI, I had to log back in on that toon first so the UI would default at least to my most recent build. If I didn't I was stuck wasting time I didn't need to had I paid attention to this software quirk. When I rolled my main in 2014 I remember the remapping experience to be just as on live. Another caveat: I've only played my main for better part of a year as time doesn't permit alts right now (which is a bummer), so I don't have up to date info, yet I don't imagine that process being given much thought as it works, even if a bit confusing.

When I first entered W.A.R. I used http://www.Hammerwiki.com for every shred of info. It's seen better days, and there are probably better repositories of info. Any way,hope I've wasted as little of your time as possible and you find the info you need.
