Allow us to move/turn off the damage notification window but keep the information in the log

For my window setup (I frequently have lots of windows and very little space in my spaceship game), the damage notification box is one of the most maddening things. It pops up right in front of a box that I desperately need to see (because all the boxes are must-sees) and if I turn it off, I don't have any of that information logged in my log anymore. I'd like the ability to turn off the notification box while still putting the data in the log or, barring that, a way to move the notification box to somewhere less obnoxious to have blocked (like where my autopilot information might be, since that's probably not relevant while I'm getting shot at).

Yes please. I have 2 monitors and it shows up right on the split.

I think CCP karkur and team have done a great job with the U.I. and I look forward to seeing what else is to come. So, I hope that is very clear in light of my also being one who would like to turn off the scrolling damage log window. I've always used the "Notifications and Log" tool and prefer it.

For now, I've figured out how to hide the scrolling damage notifications behind another window.

How to move it:

Open your log
Go to settings
Enter moving mode (or something like that)

I still can't find a good place to move it, but this is much better indeed :)

I agree, let us move this thing. It comes up right in the middle of my overview
