G'day from Team Pony Express
We've got the new combat message in the build.
You now see a scrolling list of damage notification (RED= Hits on you, BLUE= you hit others)
You can move these around by opening your log, and checking the settings
You can also move the non-damage notifications, as we've put them into a separate location.
Give us some idea of what you think of this, and if bits are still a bit flaky...

I never understand you!  Could you please further explain what you mean by your first point (for us that are a little slow)? 
And we have changed the fontsize to 12 now.
(I haven't checked duality, but I really hope the text is not all messed up because of something I was doing yesterday  )

I should add that someone (I don't want to name any names but her dev name rhymes with karkur) accidentally removed the settings from the log window, so don't worry if you notice them gone, they will be back soon

(I haven't checked duality, but I really hope the text is not all messed up because of something I was doing yesterday ) The default log position is middle top if you expand the window wider and center it then go to the new very cool positioning menu the top movable window is 99% covered by the log. The default location for the old notification window need be moved so it is easier to find. A long standing issue with the combat log is the fact that it can not be reduced to show less then 6 rows of info. Now that the scroll will be in HUD it will be used to confirm what was seen so the number of rows can be reduced.
Ah, I think I get it
We'll see what we can do

1. Can you create a second place to adjust the location of damage notification: I would like to right-click in empty space, choose Configure, and see the "move notifications" option added to the Update Location Settings UI. (and perhaps change the name of this window so it can be used for additional settings)
Damage notices appear in space, I first right-clicked in space, hoping to find configuration options there.
It would be nice to be able to click and hold on a notification as it appears, stopping updates in place, and be able to drag / drop to change message position. Or, add a positioning anchor icon for these notifications, the way it is done for locked targets at the top of the screen.
This is how we were first going to implement it, but that requires the box to be interactable, which we 99.99% of the time don't want... and we also didn't want to have a floating anchor that might look like a bracket for something.
We might change how you enter/exit the move mode and where from, thanks for your suggestions

How about a move-mode in for all your windows while in space just like the teamspeak overlay. You press a single button to enter 'move mode' and untill you press that button again, all you can do is rearrange your windows.
Umm, thats what we have now )

Will do! The text were just temporary, but we will be changing them into clear descriptive text explaining what it is. |

Have like an anchor point to adjust were you see the notifications because for me I like to have them but they are kinda distracting being directly in front of me on the screen. You can move them... go into the log window, settings and there is a button that will allow you to move them (there should now be a shortcut to that window in the HUD options menu)
