fast minor change to improve visibility, opacity slider for infopanels and more

at least i think this improvements are very small and can be done fast. don't hit me if it is actually hard to do :P

the infopanels from hovering items need a little rework imo.

the opacity is way to high:

imagine rolling maps and try to figure out how many prefixes this are, if you are not familliar with all the modifiers and hybrids:


or just try to get a quick look at the tier of an affix after identifying:


these are just average examples, it is not impossible to see, but there are many situations where it is almost impossible to see

solution:
give us a slider to adujust it to our liking.



also the Tiers and Tags:

PLEASE PLAEASE PLEASE REVERT THE TIERING ON ITEMS!!!
it is a nightmare, not only am i used to "T1 is best", it also is the most logical way to display it.
if T1 is the best, and you see a life modifier with T6, you know this is not a high roll!
now i am in the situation that i know "T1 BAD", but if T6 is good or not ... NO IDEA!

why you have removed the visibility that poe1 provides?
in poe1 this is the perfect solution, on hover + ALT it show every Tier + Affix Name + Affix Tags.
i need to hover the item, to hover the Tier (IF i can see it :P), to see the affix name and tags...

very cumbersome

solution:
just make it the same way it is in poe1



and what i also would like to see, i know this is more than nitpicky, but you also talked about it and so i think you also care about it ..

Consistancy:

if you hover an item, the infopanel always try to open to the top of this item.
Now you run into the problem when you come to the top of the screen, be it in stash or inventory, there is not enough space for the panel for SOME items with many affixes, in this case it try to open to the left side of the item first, and only after this fails, it try to open to the right side of the item.

this leads to inconsistency in trying to read some items,
because the infopanel always jumps from top to left to right to top to right to top to left.... i guess you get the point.

solution:
every item on the left side of the screen should open the infopanel to the right side of the item, and vice versa, thge right side of the screen opens to the left side of the item.



and one more thing is the background-color and -opacity of chests and and NPCs and other clickables:

please change it, it looks way to simmilar to a normal item on the ground.
it looks so weird to see an NPC name and actualy think it is a white item. same for chests, vessels, and so on.

solution:
give it a special color ;) because this does not look fancy :P
