Hey Moon, after reading this: Quote from: Ghostcrawler Source:(blue.mmo-champion.com/28/13287570986-gc-some-suggestions-regarding-raiding.html)
On dual spec: The idea is to let you swap glyphs and action bars along with your talents. It will be trivial to do in town. You will also be able to do it out of towns, but not as trivially. We hope to have this done for the next major content patch, but it's a big feature and takes some time.And this: Quote from: Wryxian Source: (blue.mmo-champion.com/1/6986533263-dual-talent--include-glyphs-aswell.html)
Well we agree that swapping talent specs isn't quite enough. No use having a whole load of glyphs for your tanking spec that are almost useless when you're dealing damage, for example. We'd also like to swap over action bars too -- it'd be a pain if you're trying to Mind Flay and you end up trying to Flash Heal!
So yes we have taken these kind of considerations into account and we'd like the feature to do more than "just" swap talent specs.
Because it is a bit more featured than originally mentioned, we'll be needing to do a bit more work on it before we can share it with you. So we're hoping to bring this feature to you in our next major content patch, but only if we're happy enough with it to make it live.It got me to thinking. Is it possible to have LS hot swap the action bar portions to be able to stay current with the dual speccing, and save all the positions, food, trinkets, and other things you can put on them?

I don't think LS will have support for duel spec, but one thing people could do is create a template for one spec and a template for another. Then, when they switch spec, they can go to the template tab and load up the spec that the person wants. The UI will reload, but that's the best I could do.
However, I will have support at some point for the 12 action bar buttons to be button types of LS and if you have those set up and they switch, be it stance, spec change, or page shifting ... the buttons will do so as well. That's the in future though. Soooo ... that's about all I can offer.

*Sniff* about the only thing I thought about when I read the dual spec stuff was, "How will this affect my beloved LS?"
I like the two template idea. Perhaps you could add an option where a user could designate 2 templates to switch between when LS detects a respec? I don't mind doing it manually, but I think the general population might want a little more automation in their UI.

I could probably do that. Duel spec won't be happening for a little bit ... so it will give me some time

Yeah, that was why i wanted to give you as quick of a headsup as I could, in the hopes that if it could happen, you would have to time to figure out which 1 minutes and 28.3 seconds out of your busy day you could devote to fixing that problem. Oh, and if you are not too busy, could you please find time to end world hunger and the current US financial crisis? Just a thought.....

Hehe, my favorite part of the financial crisis:
"Hey, government? People aren't buying our cars. In fact, we haven't really spent much time in the eight or so years to make our cars more fuel efficient so that other countries can actually legally sell our cars with their government's quality standards which, well, our cars don't meet. So, we were wondering... can you give us money? Yes, money that people gave you or will give you, with taxes. We want the people who don't want anything to do with our cars, to pay for our cars. Can we have it? Yeah? Awww ... half of what we asked for? Okay!"
In all seriousness, it's a sad, sad situation, but looking at the information on how we got there, even if it's really scattered and a lot of factors are still not known ... I would expect us to learn from some of these mistakes and carry on. I don't think we'll have a huge meltdown and our economy will break completely. It will just take a little while to pick itself up.
Maybe we, as a country, could do a big bake sale and generate some money for the people. I'd buy cookies, en mass. =)

Solution to Car company crisis: Give the money to the consumer, instead of the Car companies, in the form of a tax refund (not a tax credit). Anybody purchasing a new car in the next 1-3 years should get a couple grand back from their taxes. Such a plan would reward the companies that are producing cars the consumer wants and ultimately help the consumer aswell.
Now moongaze needs to integrate federal tax refunds into LS and we're golden!
