I did a search and couldn't see a suggestion on this, but sorry if it's been mentioned:
As per wands, there's a reasonably clear image in the corner of the icon that gives you a clue what the wand does before you float your mouse over it. Could we please have this for scrolls as well? I can't be the only one that has a shortcut bar full of scrolls and having some kind of clear identifier would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Yes I was thinking the exact same thing about potions. Looking through my inventory trying to find my resist fire potion among all those blue bottles has lost me valuable hit points many a time.
As a Sorcerer I have a Quickslot bar full of robes, Scrolls, and Potions ready to use as the need demands.
Trouble is they all look the same! Take a look at Neverwinter Nights. They have handled the inventory, and symbols for scrolls and potions a lot better. Infact with the exception of an auto tidy feature I think BioWare got the inventory spot on with NWN.

i'd like to see them add a descriptor to show which lists the spells are from so you odont have to guess (or look in you phb) to see if you can use them or would need a use magic device roll. Some more specific infomration would also be nice (ie how much damage etc, tyupe of save needed). Luckily I'm a D&D tabletop player so i know most of this by heart anyway but if they want to attract people from outside the D&D communtity who dont necisarily have a PHB sat next to them this would seem to be a good idea.
