I was thinking, one of the biggest problems I have with my PIP swap is keeping track of what went where with BOOBSJOB active.

So I was thinking, an overlay would be nice, not displayed on the "focus" client, but on any non-focus'd client. The overlay would need to display which PIP hotkey would be pressed to swap with that region.

For example in my display:
http://www.botbh.com/zimg/pipoverlay.jpg

I press F1 to swap PIP1 to PIP0, the hotkey to put PIP0 back as main is F12 so the overlay would switch to show that.

Another way I could accomplish this is to pop up a visible frame in a UI mod once I died that showed me who had the most health/mana (aka who should be the next best leader) so I could quickly hit that one...

Just an idea, either way :).

i believe the purpose of PiP BOOBS JOB was to insure that the character you want is always pulled to the currently active region by hitting the same key every time

this way, you don't have to know where the character is, it'll come to your current region

personally, i use the F8-F12 keys... this allows me to quickly pull the character i want as the 4 keys next to each other maps well to a 4 stack on the right

as for which is the best character to make lead next.. that's a different problem... and would make for a good wow add-on.

Yep, which is what I realized while posting the original post, but it was more stream of thought and I was in a hurry to get going... :).
