The log covers the upper message location when you make the log wider.. Minimum lines in the log needs to be reduced.
Text size needs to be adjustable to. Please

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 )

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.

This is coming along nicely!

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.

Perhaps to make it clearer, when in moving mode, it can say "This is example non-combat text." and "This is example combat text." so it's obvious which is which.

ahhhh. we'll see about that. (paging ccp fear!)

That really does look quite nice (and has been needed for quite some time). The only question left for me: can you resize the box, i.e. make it bigger to fit more (or less) lines (or does it resize automatically)? It looks like in your example there is space for three lines. While that is much better than the one line that was previously possible, it still isn't a lot when you're in a medium sized fight (or even a L4 mission with 40+ rats shooting you).

Thanks for the screenshot, much appreciated!

Oh wow, ya, I just landed myself in a mission while testing out some stuff, and honestly, when you have more than a couple of ships shooting you, the good old Log window is 1000x more useful than this, cause you can't barely even make out what it is saying as it is quickly skittering small lines of txt across its little box.

So maybe one request to make it better, perhaps clean up the combat logs that show in the Log window itself, so I don't have to make it take up half the screen in order to see relevant information.

The blue is too pale for my gimpy eyes.

An option to customize colors, transparency and maybe even the size would be awesome.

Could we get it so the combat notifications are movable similarly to how you can more your targets. 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.
