I just started playing again (took a couple week break to play something else) so I'm not sure which patch these inventory changes went in but I have to voice my opinion that the changes are annoying.

I love the fact that I can have more than one character inventory open at once (I know this is not new), this makes moving items to the character that repairs much easier. But now for some reason, I can no longer use the arrows at the top to swap between characters if more than one window is open, now we have to open a new one for the next character. WHY? This may sound minor, but I had a system for swapping and repairing and now it doesn't work that way, it's more steps to complete.

Also, now when you select a different character with two inventory windows open, which one belongs to whom swaps. wtf?? How confusing is that? I seriously cannot imagine a reason for this.

Ok enough text. Just had to voice that I think those changes suck and I'll be on my way. P.S. I'm loving being able to sort my inventory at the merchant!

This only true if you open an inventory window that is *not* the window of the character you have selected as leader at that time. If you click on the inventory of the character you have clicked on (golden highlight around picture) as leader, you can still cycle through all the char inventory windows of the other charatcers as before.

Still doesn't make sense, but as long as you remember to start with your leaders inventory window, those clickie arrows still work.

Right. I usually select the char that can repair and open his inventory, then open another char's inventory and drag their damaged items to his inventory, repair them, and then put them back. Then I would click the arrow at the top of that window to the next character and repeat. Now we have to close that window and open another (well you wouldn't have to close it I guess...but no reason to leave it open). I know it's a minor thing, but still annoying. And then I accidentally selected one of the other characters instead of right clicking on their portrait to open their inventory, and suddenly the window on the left was their inventory instead of the repair guys. Just confusing. I guess I will get used to it, but it sucks.
