[Feature Request] Customizable Performance Statistics Positition.
0%
Description
Hello, if it is not too much to ask, I would like to request the possibility to adjust the position of the performance statistics elements (FPS, VPS, % Speed etc).
In my case, I would love to move the FPS meter to the top left of the screen, while leaving the rest of the elements in their original position.
But I understand that not everyone will feel comfortable like this, so I humbly believe that allowing to adjust each of these elements independently would help to provide an even more flexible user experience, tailored to everyone's needs.
If this could be configured from a GUI it would be great, but if for difficulties it would have to be done by manually editing the configuration file I also find it an acceptable solution.
Thank you very much for all your support.

Hi, I would love to take this Issue!
I'm a first time contributor so I may need some assistance in deciding the best approach to this feature. Should the customization be handled purely by configuration file or should GUI elements be introduced in the Graphics > Advanced tab? If the latter, how should they look? What settings are needed?
I assume the four info windows will stay internally grouped as they are (e.g. FPS with delta t and +/-) and only their position is to be customizable per window.
I've already located the code sections relevant for the position of the info windows and hardcoded them to float to the top left, purely as a proof of concept (screenshot attached).
Thank you!

Hello ShellShark, thank you for your interest, and I'm sorry you didn't find feedback earlier.
I just came across this post, and would like to give my opinion.
I am not a developer, but as a regular user I find your idea very interesting and useful. I like it very much.
Thanks for your efforts!
