Turning on bars for all enemies - Seeing things during AOE

Is it possible to turn on "overhead" bars for all enemies?

Sometimes in AoE packs I can hardly tell what's what with all the effects firing, and would like to be able to see with a little more detail wth is going on, without tabbing like a fiend.

Any other tips for finding the bosses in a pack, or just telling how the hp of the pack is doing and picking who to go after?

Thanks.

You can have it find partial names, which is the best for an easy "Find boss" method that there is.
The link didn't quite work. Try: http://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Target_c...Slash_Command) For some reason, the URL command is putting the last ")" after the close url tag and I had to adjust it manually.

Note the ability to add the "alive" parameter in there. It's a good one to include (read examples at bottom of Wiki page for proper formatting). With the Void bind I've been using, I left it off and the target next key will continue to target the dead void until it fades away. Not helpful when things are still trying to kill you.

You can't select more than one target at a time (nor would you want to; it would paralyze everything but PBAoE attacks). Use the targeting binds described above to single out your favorite targets, and in combat, see how everyone's doing by mousing over them - their health bar will pop up without you having to tab over to them.
