Changes to accessibility mode

Ketryellowynne
It's not really a bug, but this last major update has made some subtle changes to accessibility mode which impair the functionality of the UI for those who use it.

The first change I've noticed is the most annoying, and that is that you cannot hover over skills in your bar to see a preview of them like you previously could. This has meant that when I'm levelling skills, I cannot just hover to see their progress and need to completely open the skill menu, navigate to the skill, and check its progress that way (making it impossible to do quickly like before).

The second change I've noticed that has been annoying is less of a detriment, but it has to do with champion points. The ability to select branches of the CP tree (green red or blue) has had added functionality to use mouse in accessibility mode (like the quickslot wheel which is great!) except that when using arrow keys like previously, it has reversed the arrow used (it used to be left = green; up = blue; right = red). Now it is left = green; DOWN = blue; right = red. This one is more minor and less of an issue, but is also annoying to have to relearn controles after years of playing in a particular setting

    Forgot to add and cannot figure out how to edit:

    The hovering over applies to potions as well, which is the most annoying/potentially devastating. As someone who mains heal with triple potion cooldown glyphs, I'm chugging potions regularly. Currently, I cannot hover over the potion to see which ones are equipped. While this may not sound like a huge deal at first, several potion types share pictures, and even names, and so it's very important for me to know if that's my trash magicka potions I'm chugging or a heroism potion (which I cannot tell without the tool tip since they're the same name and picture [essence of magicka]), or if that's a tri pot potion, or a resistance potion (same issue, essence of health). This is a potentially very expensive issue (especially with magicka, as the trash pots are free and the heroism ones use the most expensive alchemy ingredients).

    It's a really important feature that NEEDS to be re-added to accessibility mode
