Questions About UI Elements, And A Certain Costume.
So I recently got the game up and playing yesterday, and I had a few question's that would help me out greatly. (And one that I'm just curious about.)
First, the more important ones:
I play the game with a controller, or, at least, I would like to mainly play the game with a controller. But there are four very annoying things I've found about this so far:
1. The controller UI disappears when go into combat, making it so I can't actually see what actions I'm actually doing. It's difficult to learn my rotation and if I'm pressing the right button's if the controller UI doesn't actually stay on screen so I know which command went through and that I swapped modes to my other set.
2. The keyboard UI stays on the screen with no way, (from what I can tell.) To turn it off. I can make it really tiny, but I can't find the option to actually make it go away entirely.
3. You can't seem to drag skills onto the Controller UI interface to put them in place. Instead it, for some reason that is completely beyond me, seems to expect me to drag them onto the keyboard UI interface? Where I then have to guess where they'll land on the controller interface? This doesn't really make much sense.
4. There's no way to tell the game I'm primarily using a controller as my main input method. So it still gives me keyboard tool tips for interacting with the game, instead of controller ones, and prioritizes giving me these keyboard tool tips, despite the fact I'm currently interacting with it, with a controller.
Are there fixes for any of these? I would really like to improve my QoL controller use. All of this makes it kind of a pain.
.
Non-controller related UI question:
Is there a way to resize the chat box like every other UI Element, separate from resizing the entire interface, or is literally the only way to do that, to scale the entire UI, and then scale anything that isn't the chat box up. I was going to ask how to actually move it around the screen, but luckily I already figured that one out. (Having to grab the, "General." Tab to move the whole chat box is really odd. Lol.)
Non-Game Play related question:
Yesterday I was searching for this: Outfit, in the Dressing Room. I actually think this outfit is rather cute, and it's an outfit I wouldn't mind paying for. But the closest thing I could find was this:
Picture 1.
Picture 2.
There is also another version of the outfit above with patches, but it still has the really ugly hot pant things. I was wondering if there is another version of the outfit, that I'm just not looking hard enough for, or if this outfit in-particular was another victim of the ugly censorship of a bunch of other outfits in the game, and there is no longer an actually cute version of the Boat Cadet outfit.
To anyone who can help and takes the time to respond: Thank you very much! Sorry for my newbie questions. >w<.

To resize the chat, bring up your cursor and you'll see a little arrow type thing bottom right of the chat box, you can click that and drag it around to change the size. https://gyazo.com/4dfa3eac50964628cdeaad004a72e002
A for the costume, I believe they are like that even in Korea, and neither versions are in the cash shop currently.
Thank you for the answers!
For the Chat Window, I was looking to resize the UI Element it self. I know you can change the size of the window at the bottom right, but it doesn't change the size of the actual window, if you know what I mean. (Like, how in the options, the other UI is scaleable and you can make the whole thing smaller, or larger.) For the chat box, the bottom right corner can only go so far left, and only so far up.
As for the costume, wow that is very odd! :O. I wonder why the other version of that outfit doesn't exist in game, when it exists on that figure.
Again, thank you for your answers! ^w^.
How will I live out my Strike Witches dream, without pantsu. ^w^.
Some of the figurines don't represent what is actually in the game, and as for them not being available, sometimes cosmetics retire from the cash shop after they've been in it for a while. They were available up until a few months ago. They will probably be available again some time in the future, even if temporary.
Only option is to decrease the total size of your UI to make the chat box as small as possible, from there though you can go back and re adjust the other elements.
To do so go under options in your game menu then use the top slider as shown in the pic below
