Backbar ability timer - consoles

Hi, I was wondering if there is a way to show both ability bars at the same time on consoles. It's called Action Duration Reminder on PC. But can it be done on consoles?

It helps to see the timer of every backbar ability so that way you know when to re-apply a DOT. For DPS, I'm switching to my backbar either too late too early just to re-apply DOT for one ability. Then add to the fact that there are 4 other abilities to manage. tbgzxsxy44z8.png

With both bars visible, you can easily see when to quickly switch to backbar. Here's a video of Luca switching only when one of the backbar DOTS ran out.

    This. There is a setting that has been added to the game a while ago found there that allows you to set the ability timers to show both bars no matter what bar you are currently on.

    There are a lot of settings that have been added under combat settings tab in the menu that used to be in mods.
