    When I'm playing Beamng I don't always want to do the same things. Sometimes I want to customize my car or to play with the games mechanics (consumption, brake temp...) Sometimes I want to race and sometimes I just want to drive around.
    But for each situations I need a different UI layout. When I customize a car, I like to have a lot of information, torque, engine temp... But when I'm driving around, I like to have a clear view with only the basics information. The point is changing the UI layout can be very long.
    Thats why I think It would be a good idea to put some Layouts you can predefined and change with a press on a keys.
    This can work as the following :
    - You customize your differents UI layout for the purpose you want
    - When you want to change the UI you press a bind button that will change your apps with one of the predefined layout

    I think 3 or 5 layout can be very nice and save a lot of time

    Sorry for my english, If you don't understand something ask me about it.

    Every anwser and critics is welcome.
    Thanks for taking the time to read me.

    I have a similar struggle. But I only change UI layouts once in a blue moon, anyway. I think predefined UI layouts is actually a great idea.

    I hope it is implemented. Although, I cannot say it will, for sure; the devs have got a lot on their plates at the moment.

    It is quite possible to be implemented as we used to have it. There used to be iirc 3 different UI layouts which we could edit and set up, but every update usually broke your ui layout.
