Put the "floaters" into a UI box we can move around

I'm so tired of not being able to see the damage/heal floaters OVER large npcs. Even using /camdist or /gfxsetdefaultfov are problematic.
Certainly a big reason for this is so I can see what actual damage I'm doing. Because having the combat log open during a huge fight is useless, as the text either disappears or scrolls by so fast, even if I've scrolled up many pages worth.

It seems that all damage floaters are pinned to the top of everyone/everything. Putting this into a UI-movable box would be so helpful, especially at all of the super-sized NPCs we encounter these days.

How does that translate into me being able to move them to the right side of my screen?

By default there is a "combat" tab in your chat box, you might have removed that though. But even without that tab you can toggle on combat text in any chat tab. And you can place your chat box anywhere on your screen.

At the speed of which that stuff zooms by AND during Cosmic fights they have a tendency to get vaped, this is not a workable solution.

That would be something like this:
Even when you have it just showing YOU it still shows all effects on you from all sources. At Cosmics and OMs with super-larges, this gets loaded up quickly and zooms on by.
Chat bar is lousy because you can't just stop the window at a certain place to look at 1 number you were interested in. And, in the above situations, it often gets visibly "emptied".
I just want to parse "on the fly". I don't need something telling me I critted X% of the time. I want to see it as it happens. The system works on standard sized NPCs. But, even at max range on a PA user, I have to zoom farther out or put my camera at an odd angle to see the floaters on the super-large NPCs. And forget about it if you are a melee toon.
With a solution of the floaters in a UI-movable box, if you don't want to see the floaters, you can move them or simply turn them off.
Numbers are important, especially while they are coming up. A parser is great for later.

Then some sort of box/rectangle (that is probably also their hitbox) that would visually fit over them. Put a slider in that so I can put it at the bottom. I only need it for "my" target. So, maybe put it somewhere on the targets' picture or tell box.
