Will the UI be improved in terms of customization? Currently, it lacks basic options. Thought this was supposed to encourage moving away from addons.

What basic options do you feel it lacks?

One of my fears for this new UI is that now the genie is out of the bottle they will change it every other patch and I’ll have to be constantly tweaking it. This will become a Sisyphean task forever and ever.
The old UI had one great feature. I could just ignore it and it did what I needed. I didn’t have to tweak anything. I didn’t have to get used to new fonts, new locations, new ways of working.

I would like to be able to resize the map, and move the bags so it doesn’t sit over the top of action bars. I would also like to not have to use a WA to give the micro menu colour.
On the whole I think it’s a great improvement over the old UI but some tweaks would be nice.

Overall, the UI is a big step up imo. Resizing action bars and so on is awesome. There are some things missing, though:
1: Resizing the icons around the mini-map.
2: Moving and rotating the XP bar.
3: Moving and resizing the group finder search thing.
If that gets added, I’ll be very happy!

Anyone know if it’s possible to change the orientation of collapsible Action Bar abilities such as Mage portals or Rogue poisons?
My mage portals go off the bottom of the screen so I can only portal to 2 places using the collapsible list. To portal somewhere I can’t see I have to drag that portal onto my action bar separately.

The whole minimap is just a mess , u cant rezise it, u cant move time , make it bigger, same with calendar .
Have u seen that dungeon/raid difficulty above map when u are in instance ? U cant tell what difficulty u are in by it , and it isnt even centered , it looks like a 7yo was told to draw it .
Waay too low customization when it comes to bars, u cant realy modify them .
U cant move with bags/micro meno.
Empty bag slots are making me sick realy.
Still having issue with wierd interactions when using one UI preset on multiple chars, especialy when some of them got forms/stances and some dont .
Also, why do we get a grid only ? Was it so hard to implement actual good system like WA uses where u can move anything u want pixel by pixel or just type specific location ?
And yes, i provided my feedback on both beta and ptr, and yet it went live .
I think this is bug with spells themselves not with how thing colapse .
On my druid “hero path : Sl” that thingy that portals you to dungeons , colapses based on bar it is set in .
If its placed on bar at botom of screen it colapses to top .
If its placed on bar on right it colapses to left , and vice versa when i swap bars.

I hope so, then it might get fixed.
Used to but not anymore. My action bar is at the bottom (where it’s always been) but the menu collapses off the bottom of the screen showing only 2 options.
I realy dont know what exactly is causing this, but its not a spell issue. Just loged my mage and it acts just as it should for me . No matter where it is placed it uses same logic when colapsing and i can always see all portals .
Have u tried opening your spell book and colapsing it there ? If so how does it act ? If it does work as it should from spell book, then try to replace it to your bars again .
In the spell book it opens out to the right and I can drag a portal to my Action Bar from here.
Where are your Action Bars? Do you use an Addon such as Elv or Bartender?
So in spell book it works at it should. Have u tried moving whole “portals” spells into bars again and using it there to see how it colapses ?
No such addons but have u tried disabling everything just in case ?
My bars are on bottom and on right ,like the “classic style” but even if i moved my bar to left ( just to try this) it worked and then it colapsed to right instead.
I have very few AddOns and none are UI type ones, I’ve run the standard UI since Vanilla.
Only new feature I like in the new UI is the Interact With button.
I have dragged the Portal ability to my Action Bar and the same happens. Mine is just below the Cast Bar. I could try making it lower I guess, like right at the bottom.
Edit:
So, I moved the Action Bar right to the bottome (covering the xp Bar) and it works fine, list of portals expands up the screen.
I move the Action Bar up a little (twice the size of the XP Bar) it Expands / Collapses down again.
Their definition of “High Up” must be about as high as their QA standards…
Edit 2:
With the Action Bars just above the XP Bar it works ok. Action Bars cover the Azerite Bar on my DH that’s never been to SL lands but I don’t play it much and hopefully no more such bars needed.

My Mage alt portal buttons go the right way up when placed on bars, they just don’t do feck all when you press the button to pop up the list of portals or teleports.
Have to use them from the spellbook atm.

Leveled up new char with new ui and I am back to Elvui.
You can’t see Gate/tower hp in bg’s
Flag/Orb carrier frame
Target/Focus frames buffs/debuffs customization
Tooltip or target frame showing players spec etc
Getting in and out of vehicles changes camera distance. There is an option but it doesn’t work with vehicles?
More bag/bank options like a button for auto sell common items
etc…ease of life stuff
Cannot change mini map size or move normal map,also doesnt have the enemy hp frames in battlegrounds.
Also im not able to make a horizontal bar of 2Ă—12 slots with gryphon on each side .
This ui is far from customizable.
Found this macro somewhere that reduces the size of the minimap. Only problem is you need to do it every relog.
/run Minimap:SetScale(0.9)
1 is the normal size btw.
Nah i just used ui rescale in graphic options to make it a bit tiny worse part is all rest gets tiny too…
This too. Also, mine seems stuck in the bottom right corner of the screen and I don’t know how to move it
